This morning, the Director General received from the Mayor of Jaén, Julio Millán Muñoz, the Gold Medal of the city awarded by the Civil Guard








The general director of the Civil Guard, together with the President of the Provincial Council of Jaén, Francisco Reyes and the deputy delegate of the Government of Spain in Jaén, Catalina Madueño, have announced the investments in infrastructure planned for the Civil Guard in the province of Jaén.

Prior to the presentation, a working meeting was held, which was also attended by the mayor of the City Council of Jaén, Julio Millán; the first lieutenant of the City Council of Baeza, Rodrigo Checa; and different commands of the Civil Guard.

In her speech, the general director began by talking about the Baeza Academy, where at the moment, a total of 1,927 male and female students (1,529 men and 398 women) are preparing to enter the Civil Guard. In this Academy, work will begin to be carried out in 2022 for a total amount of 10.3 million euros.

Within the Infrastructure Plan for State Security, which is executed by Siepse (Society of Infrastructures and Penitentiary Equipment and State Security), it has been put out to tender for an amount of 7.23 million euros building a new shooting gallery, the resurfacing of the Academy's parade ground and the construction of a new athletics track. The award of the works is scheduled for February and the work could begin during the second quarter of 2022. The execution period for these works is 15 months.

In this sense, the general director explained that the surface of the new shooting gallery -with 100 meters in length- rises to almost 5,450 square meters (5,446). The importance of this performance lies fundamentally in that it is also designed for long weapons (not only short ones), a practice that currently cannot be done at the Baeza Academy.

Currently, students have to travel to the old school in Úbeda during the days these classes are scheduled. The gallery will have moving targets and will be partially covered. It includes changing rooms, a training room and, on the first floor, a 1,100-square-meter tatami (or sports area) has been projected. Parallel to this construction, an old long gun shooting gallery and the warehouses on which it is located, which are on the ground floor, will also be refurbished. In this case, the performance area is 608 square meters.

María Gámez highlighted that the Academy's parade ground will also be resurfaced and the dampness that exists in a perimeter service gallery to this space will be fixed. Likewise, the construction of a new approved athletics track is planned, with 6 lanes and a length of 400 meters. Within the perimeter of the court, a 7-a-side football field will also be set up and an auxiliary building will also be erected for changing rooms and a warehouse.

María Gámez has continued her intervention by commenting that, in addition, the files of three other projects in the Baeza Academy that will be financed with European funds and whose total amount amounts to 3.06 million euros The start of work is scheduled for the first half of 2022. With an amount of 1.25 million euros, we have, on the one hand, the replacement of all the doors and windows of the complex, which will allow a greater thermal insulation of the buildings.

On the other hand, the Public Sector Procurement Platform has also tendered, for 783,000 euros, the replacement of the Academy's diesel boilers with gas-fired ones, in addition to the installation of thermo-solar panels for the production of sanitary water, in this case, for an amount of 1.02 million euros. Undoubtedly, actions that not only imply an advance in energy efficiency, but also give more security to the heating and sanitary hot water services that are offered to a significant number of people.

Sustainability and energy efficiency

Related to sustainability and energy efficiency, María Gámez has detailed the actions that are planned in the province of Jaén within the framework of the agreement signed a few days ago between the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Ecological Transition charged to the European recovery funds (Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan).

This initiative is mainly focused on small municipalities and rural areas, and has been designed as a useful tool to face the Demographic Challenge, since public security is one of the basic services that guarantees progress in all territories. We have the obligation to offer a quality service to all people, wherever they live.

On the one hand, this agreement is committed to green mobility, with a renewal of the fleet with hybrid and electric vehicles (they will be distributed according to needs), with priority being the Civil Guard posts of Bailén, Beas de Segura and Torredonjimeno. And, on the other hand, the rehabilitation of infrastructures with energy efficiency criteria is promoted.

In total, the planned investment in these municipalities amounts to 5.2 million euros and an energetic renovation of a total area of ​​11,950 square meters is foreseen. The estimated energy savings will be 30% once these works are completed, which will be carried out throughout 2022 and 2023.

The agreement, in addition, has included at the expense of financing the positions of Villacarrillo and that of Mengíbar (728,000 euros).

We are, without a doubt, before a good initiative of the Government of Spain that shows its commitment to the energy transition, bets on people and proposes fair development for all territories. In the Administration we have the responsibility not only to offer quality public services, as I said before, but to take care of and maintain our environment, said María Gámez.
Finally, the general director has highlighted the fluid collaboration that exists with the Provincial Council of Jaén. The supramunicipal institution has financed this year with almost 100,000 euros an air conditioning program in the classrooms of the Baeza Academy, in addition to the rehabilitation of the pool area and other rehabilitation actions of various Civil Guard infrastructures in the province provided for in the agreement signed in July last year with the Provincial Council, endowed with 150,000 euros.

Delivery of the Gold Medal of the City of Jaén to the Civil Guard

This morning the Mayor of Jaén presented the City's Gold Medal to the Civil Guard for the 175th anniversary, in an event that took place at the Infanta Leonor theater. It has been collected by the Director General and by the lieutenant colonel in charge of the Civil Guard Command of Jaén, Francisco José Lozano.
María Gámez thanked this recognition not only to the Mayor, but also to the institutions and the thousands of people from Jaén who supported this initiative because it is “really comforting to see the love and respect that is shown to the Civil Guard in this land. For this reason, we accept this distinction with the utmost respect, and thanks to it, the strong ties that exist between the Civil Guard and the citizens of Jaén are further strengthened ”.
The Director General has highlighted that "responsible for the Civil Guard to wear this Gold Medal of Jaén is the service provided day by day by the staff of the Command, with its lieutenant colonel Francisco José Lozano at the head … Without forgetting the Baeza Academy, so deeply rooted in this province, where the future civil guards are trained ”.
“Units, specialties and positions make our institution, as is the case in the rest of the provinces, remarked María Gámez, a backbone of the State. A deployment that also allows us that those who inhabit the peoples of our country, no matter how small or isolated they may be, can face a future of progress and hope ”.
Finally, the general director has concluded by stating that "in this land, that of Jaén, we will continue to persevere with our deployment so that any Jaén who travels to any place, will always find a patrol on the roads and in their cities and towns, men and women willing to give him help, and to be "consolation for the afflicted" as the Civil Guard's Primer has said for 176 years. Either as a victim of a crime, insuring the assets of the countryside, agriculture, protecting their environment, animal welfare, or their artistic heritage; taking care of people and their safety, always know that they will always have the Civil Guard at their side ”.
