A month after the start of the voluntary resettlement plan at the Moinho favela, in downtown São Paulo, 216 of the approximately 850 registered families have left the community, according to the government of São Paulo. The number represents 25% of residents included in the program ,.
Community families can opt for apartments offered in a range of 25 projects – ready, under construction or with works to start. Another possibility is to seek real estate that meet the criteria of the program, with value of up to R $ 250 thousand. Families with monthly income of up to R $ 4.7 thousand will have no cost.
Those who choose a housing yet will receive a security of R $ 2,400 and, in the following months, a housing allowance of R $ 1,200. After the eviction, the Housing and Urban Development Company (CDHU) will develop the decharacterization of empty properties to avoid new occupations.
Construction of the Moinho Park
CDHU plans to restructure the Moinho favela area, with the implementation of Parque do Moinho, in order to prevent new occupations.
Favela do Moinho is the only slum located in the center of São Paulo. The union owns most of the place where the community is and the assignment of the land is still in the negotiation phase.
