Projects pending for 2020

In the face of the new fiscal year, according to Mateos, we must "deal with the fiscal ordinances and budgets that have our mark and that mark that necessary change of course for our city, accounts that must be participatory and that are our neighbors who decide what we should allocate a part of these municipal headings, "in addition to other matters to which we commit ourselves as the neighborhood and district boards so that there is greater participation of the neighbors, as well as the headquarters of the Local Police in the Barrio de San Cristobal".

"But there are also many other projects that do not depend directly on municipal management since its execution corresponds to the State or the Autonomous Community, but we will be pending and demanding, such as the three million euros provided in the PGE for investments in neighborhoods and districts , the construction of the underpass of the San Antonio roundabout to decongest traffic in that area of ​​entry and exit to our city, or the beginning of the sections of the central round that are still pending and the remodeling of Santa Clara and Jerónimo Santa Fe , among others ", has listed the First Edil, who has been willing to continue to reach out to the CARM and the rest of the municipal groups" to complete the large pending infrastructure that is essential for the municipality, such as the arrival of the Underground AVE, the definitive solution for earthquake victims who 8 years later expect to turn the page, the improvement of Health in the Area
