The memorandum of the association dates back to 14th June 1966 and in the first period the Board of Directors was made up of eight members plus the Mayor Pro Tempore. On 14 June 1993, as per the deed of Notary Maria Patrizia Bersotti, an amendment was made to the Statute in order to increase, for management reasons, the number of members of the Board of Directors from nine to twenty-one, including the Mayor Pro Tempore.
