Axel Olofsson, employed by Tusen Toner, tells the channel that the municipality has been compensated by LKAB for rescuing the property and moving it to the new city center. The move was planned to be carried out as early as 2023, but the money has run out.
It is deeply disturbing that such large sums can disappear and that there has been no concrete plan for how to rescue the music life of Kiruna residents, but also their cultural heritage, he says.
According to councilor Mats Taaveniku (S), the previous municipal leadership bears the responsibility for the money running out. He believes that the money has gone towards building the notorious swimming pool in the municipality.
Gunnar Selberg (C), former councilor, means that the money for the music house Tusen Toners' move has not gone to any other projects during his leadership.
At the turn of the year, the music house will be emptied. The municipality will decide whether they can afford to move the house to the new city center, or if new premises for the association should be built.
