A Building Program (1971) has been for over three decades the only urban serving difficulties in the government of the urban sprawl for a physiological aging and intrinsic stiffness. The plains north of the center consolidated eight-twentieth century was the only possible direction of growth for the city, bordered to the east and west from the river and the ridge Ippari Iblei. Along this route forecasts edificatoria the PDF you are prematurely exhausted - Comiso presents a weak positive demographic trends and never stopped since 1951 - and the new building in the 70s and 80s has developed in an abusive way, losing firmness and dispersing in the countryside . This expansion device interested terraced buildings organized on 2-3 levels, generalmente con il garage e l’alloggio per una famiglia al piano terra e due alloggi per i figli ai piani superiori.
Morfologicamente l’espansione abusiva ha rispettato le principali direzioni di crescita individuate dal P.D.F., per cui assistiamo ad un tessuto urbano piuttosto regolare, in cui le lottizzazioni individuali sono servite da strade in continuità con la maglia della città consolidata adiacente. Il nuovo Piano Regolatore – iniziato negli anni Ottanta e approvato nel 2000 – ha recepito queste espansioni considerandole come aree B di completamento e come aree C di espansione a seconda del loro grado di compattezza, rilevando il deficit di attrezzature collettive (Comiso alla data di adozione del P.R.G. had, on the surface, less than 50% of the land for services provided by decree) and by making generous estimates of adjustment. Lots not built on were entered for public funding and has provided a major route facilities combined with a ring, with a design that ambirebbe arc to lead to a form over the northern edge of town growth.
the present day land for many services have already been expropriated, but the difficulty of finding the resources to carry them out makes such areas remain empty: in many sectors of the built illegally built has already exhausted the allowable volume according to the PRG for in these tissues can not be built further and remain pending a termination configuration. -
Cristina is a student and lives with his parents.
All homes you see around here were raised 20 years ago, more or less when I was born in the midst of olive trees and almond trees, no roads. We have done like many other families who have come here, they buy a lot and have built the house illegally, because the houses were the center of the small and old.
Today all the buildings around here are forgiven and the City has also led the streets and all the services. But in the beginning was not so, there was no way we always had to take water from the well there in the garden.

The lot on the side of our house is locked, because the volume it was possible in this area has already been exhausted by existing buildings in an open area and who can not make us his house. A few years ago took over the city, has snatched the still empty lots and for them to car parks, squares, but for now they are just vacant lots, some use them as landfill. It's a little 'desolate, especially at night, there seems to be in town.
The houses around here are all similar, in the garage and there is no living parents, and above there is room for apartments for their children. We are still very connected to this family model. Here, for example, also lives next to the sister of my mother's cousins, and she lives grandmother. We live for the moment all together on the ground floor, two floors above them have finished, but they are still empty. There are two apartments for me and my brother, who is smaller.
I study at university in Ragusa, I move every day, now is a situation that is good because in this house we have all the comforts. But I can not say I'll stay here to live, in this context does not like me. I'd rather go downtown, or take a detached cottage. My mother tells me that the comfort and space you have in a house so you can have them if you go downtown, and he's right. But I also affects the context, I like to go down in the street and find shops and places to stay.
Many buildings in this part of town have apartments for their children on the upper floors that are empty. This happens because the kids of today are marrying later and longer at home with his parents, or because they went off to study and remain to live elsewhere. But also because they have chosen to live in other parts of Comiso and other types of homes.
