Abellán blames the overstaffing government team on these works, a direct result of the "finger-to-hand" award made by the PP of the Auditorium project, when in 2015 they denied the possibility that any Lorca company could access the contracting of this work.
The second deputy spokesman of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, Isidro Abellán has denounced the "extra cost" that are supposing the works of the Auditorium and Congress Hall of Lorca, for the pockets of citizens.
In addition, he regrets that because of the management that the PP is making of these works "the Auditorium of Lorca, which for now only has built the shell of 7 million euros, since its interior is empty, is increasingly reminiscent of the Auditorio de Puerto Lumbreras ".
Abellán sums up this surcharge to the award that the Popular Party made "to finger" of the works of the Auditorium for 7 million euros to the company Tragsa, based in Madrid, when he says "denied any possibility that Lorca companies, perfectly Trained, could opt for the contracting of this project ".
In this sense, he has informed that because the public contest is not awarded for the award of these works, the Popular Party has avoided any possibility of saving, and has caused, therefore, that the work had to be executed with the entire investment Budgeted.
Taking into account the percentage of low that is registering, on average around 20%, in the public works adjudication processes in Lorca, calculate that the savings that could have supposed the award of the works of the Auditorium, via public tender , Would have been around 1,344,000 euros.
As an example, it indicated the savings that resulted from the tendering of the livestock exhibition, whose budget after the offers presented by the different companies, was awarded for 2,921,086.58 euros, with a saving of 698,379 , € 87 compared to € 3,619,466.45 initially budgeted.
Abellán recalled that "the rush" to award "handy" the work of the first phase of the Auditorium of Lorca were motivated by the "big lie" that the Popular Party made to Lorca, when "invented the need to have Accelerate the construction of this project "because, as the PP insisted," the work had to be finished by December 2015 so that European funding would not be jeopardized. "
He points out that "as everyone knows, the works were not finished by December 2015, so it is clear that this financing never came to be in danger."
In addition, Abellán denounces the "worrying damage" that this poor management of the works of the Auditorium is causing in the celebration of the Lorca fairs of Sepor, Feramur or Fericab, among others.
Once again, as the socialist mayor has regretted "2017 will not be the year of the return of these fairs to their original location, with the consequent detriment to the prestige of our fairs, and assures," added expense "as it recalls this "Shoddy planning" of the works of the Auditorium project makes the PP have to spend, year after year, public money to be able to enable the provisional locations, to be able to celebrate these fairs.
