Federal Government releases resources for containment works in Juiz de Fora The municipality of Juiz de Fora will receive R$ 217,250,802.01 through a term of commitment signed with the federal government for interventions in areas hit by the February rains, which left more than 60 dead and thousands homeless. The agreement includes interventions in Morro do Cristo, Curva da Miséria and slope containment works in the Parque Burnier, Jardim Natal, Três Moinhos, Bom Clima, Cerâmica and Tiguera neighborhoods. ? Click here to follow the g1 Zona da Mata channel on WhatsApp g1 contacted the federal government and city hall to find out when the resources will be released and when work will begin, but did not receive a response until the last update of this report. ? The term of commitment is a legal instrument that formalizes the transfer of resources from the Union to the municipality. In the case of the Growth Acceleration Program (PAC), it replaces agreements and transfer contracts and guarantees the financial and administrative conditions for the municipality to bid for interventions, which are already in the project development phase. On the same day, the city council also concluded and presented a financing proposal to the Ministry of Cities for interventions on the Gentil Forn road. The access road to Cidade Alta has been closed since February after landslides. The release of approximately R$91 million depends on the analysis of the proposal by the department and the approval of an authorizing bill by the City Council.
