The way to help our trade is to build better, modern and well-lit streets that invite to enjoy, instead of charging extra taxes as others did.
The PSOE, which now criticizes everything, forgets that forced neighbors and street traders in works to pay "SPECIAL CONTRIBUTIONS", while the current Municipal Administration has managed, for example, to pay only half of the IBI.
The Councilor for Commerce in the City of Lorca, Maria del Carmen Ruiz, said that the Consistory is with our merchants, helping in everything we can, meeting their just requests and working side by side to promote this city.
We have put the planning and execution of the works at the service of the commercial sector to get some streets that encourage you to enjoy the city buying in our shops, and we will continue to do so, while promoting the realization of multiple activities that lead life and movement Lorca.
We are aware that the execution of works, those that others never dared to do, entails discomfort, but we will enjoy them for decades.
For this reason we appreciate the special understanding and responsibility shown by the merchants whose streets are being made
The Edil de Comercio has indicated that it seems that the PSOE returns to betray his bad memory;
it has been forgotten that they not only did not give aid to businesses and neighbors living in areas under construction, but in the few streets where they did construction, they created an extra tax to destroy the pockets of citizens.
In case the PSOE has forgotten it was called "Special Contributions", an additional charge that was added to the payment of 100% of the IBI, IAE, fords, rents, social security ... It should be remembered that this City Council, for example, has managed to Lorca affected by earthquakes pay only half of the IBI.
That is the difference.
The PSOE left this city and this City Council in ruins, with a debt of more than 105 million euros, the drawers full of bills, urban agreements trap on each corner with multi-million dollar sentences, not to mention the checkbook of "pufos" that now we have to pay all Lorca.
With such a load in your backpack you should think twice before speaking.
The Edil de Comercio has affirmed that the best way we have to help our commercial fabric is to fix its streets and provide them with lighting in conditions, with wider sidewalks to walk through, incorporating urban furniture, burying their containers and adding trees. to get a more attractive, modern and commercial space, something that others did not take into account.
The businesses and neighbors of streets such as Floridablanca, Pérez Casas and Nogalte still remember the "stupendous" management that this party made of the works, since they had to get back up completely just a few years later to correct the botched perpetrated.
This is how the PSOE understands the help of neighbors and merchants.
