Meanwhile, the mayor starts a new journey, this time to the U.S. city of Philadelphia, where he accompanied a group of local artists.
For the Socialist candidate for mayor, the problems of Lorca and Lorca should be an "absolute priority" and said that when it comes to the Mayor "will change many things."
The socialist candidate for mayor of Lorca, Manuel Soler said today that "official data in hand, the PP has broken their promise to cut taxes."
Manuel Soler explained in the last budget socialist, 2007, entered 23 million euros in direct taxes on citizens, while in 2011, the PP in the same chapter will raise 26.5 million, 15 % more "out of pocket Lorca."
Manuel Soler also has said that the municipal government of the PP the tax bill has risen by 40%, 10% water, has increased by 17.4% debt to banks, pay 3 Lorca, 23% of interests in financial institutions and personnel costs, the City has grown by 1.4 million euros.
In addition, debts with suppliers have increased by 5 million euros and have failed many electoral promises on Local Finance.
Meanwhile, municipal investments have decreased by 37% and the Municipal Budget for 2011 does not provide either a single investment in villages.
In that sense, Soler said that "everything has been done in the councils in the last two years has been thanks to Plan E government of Spain has implemented more than 40 investments in rural areas of the municipality.
While all this happens, the problems accumulate in the municipality and Lorca has 7,500 unemployed, the Mayor of the PP, has started a new journey, this time to the U.S. city of Philadelphia, where he accompanied a group of local artists.
Manuel Soler, criticized the Lorca have to endure a waiting list of months for the Mayor address their concerns, and while he was taking a holiday in the U.S..
To Soler, the problems of Lorca and Lorca should be an "absolute priority" and said that when it comes to the Mayor "will change many things."
Soler announced it will conduct a thinning of the Local Government councils to regroup to save staff costs because "it is normal that some councilors virtually no powers and no budget to manage are charging $ 3,000 a month and take their time" walking " . Manuel Soler Mayor also lamented that the PP has not managed to motivate the finance council for it to be devoted exclusively to municipal responsibility instead of being turned in their private businesses.
THE CONTRIBUTION UP TO 40% ON RECEIPT OF WATER BY 10%
On Municipal Finance Manuel Soler has ensured that the tax "more painful to the people ', as the tax bill has gone up by 40% over the past four years.
The water has made 10% last year alone the fees and public prices were up 5% when the CPI only 1.3% did.
THE CATASTRAZO, INHERITANCE OF AZNAR
Manuel Soler also said it was "laughable" that the PP Zapatero intends to blame the "catastrazo."
In that sense, explained that the levy has risen so much because in 2004 there was to update the cadastral value of the property, which was imposed by a law passed in 1997, with Prime Minister José María.
However, he recalled that the PP in Lorca also said it would amend the Regulatory Ordinances real estate tax with a tax rate cut from the second year of the legislature.
Something that has not been met.
The City Council has the capacity to lower the tax rate applied to the rateable value so that the amount of the tax bill does not go up every year.
In the plenary session last October proposed by the Socialist Party but the PP voted against and another breach of his campaign promises.
A 3.23% INTEREST HIGHEST
The socialist candidate also regretted that the PP mayor, Francisco Jodar has failed "virtually all of its electoral promises on Local Finance."
For example, when seeking the mayoralty Jódar promised to reduce lending to financial institutions.
However, the refinancing of loans that keeps the City Council with banks and Jódar Francisco has made in the last three months, far from being a savings, have led to the Lorca pay 46,550 euros per month more in interest, a few hundred million pesetas per year.
These refinancing operations have led to increased interest rate of 3.23% loan.
A 17.4% INCREASE IN DEBT WITH BANKS
Jódar also promised to thin the bank debt, but the reality is that during his term debt has increased by 17.4% from 52.2 million euros to 61.3 million today.
In 2009 Multiply a 200% diets PP GOVERNMENT TEAM
On the promised cost reductions and advertising protocol, Manuel Soler said that this is only an "appearance" because the government team of Francisco Jódar adopted multiple budget changes have been made, for example, in 2009 to multiply a 200% allowances of the mayor and aldermen of PP over budget.
PERSONAL SPENDING INCREASE
In the three-year rule of Francisco Jodar, staff costs have increased by 1.4 million euros, just the opposite of commitment to the citizens Jódar thin the Local Administration.
For example, during the tenure of Mayor of PP activity of the Planning Department has fallen by 60% while the number of employees has increased by over 20%.
PLANNING MANAGER WINS THE SAME AS A MINISTER
On the chapter staff, Manuel Soler had focused on the many positions of trust of the government team, most of them former senior relocations of PP at the regional level who have come to tax the municipal coffers.
Among them, Manuel Soler highlighted as particularly "bleeding" the still Planning Manager, Manuel Alfonso Guerrero.
Although management will disappear on January 1, Guerrero remains on the payroll of the City, "do not know what features but charging 74,000 euros per year, the same salary as a minister," said the Socialist candidate.
PAYMENT TO SUPPLIERS bottoms
When the PSOE left the municipal government, providers of debt stood at 27 million euros.
Jódar undertook to establish criteria for "reasonable payment" with suppliers of goods and services of the City and to reduce this debt, however, today over 32 million euros.
This is paradoxical because in June 2009, the Government of Spain approved a special credit of 20 million euros to the Council so that it could meet much of the debt to suppliers.
However, the PP government team has only paid 4 million euros for this concept, so Manuel Soler wondered what happened to the remaining 16 million euros.
According to Manuel Soler "is a cry that Lorca through very severe liquidity problems that forced him to stop and stop paying suppliers confirming with several companies because banks no longer trust the consistory."
The socialist candidate explained that defaults are strangling some of the suppliers they work with the City, some of which carry up to three years unpaid bills, when the law requires the consistory to pay within 60 days.
In this regard, Soler recalled that last September, the PSOE took a motion for the City Council plenary meeting of the Arrears Act.
One proposal that was rejected by the PP.
NOT THE ESCALATION OF DISCOUNTS FOR LARGE FAMILIES OF IBI
Manuel Soler said that bonuses for large families in the IBI who claims to have built the PP in Lorca "were already at the stage of the PSOE.
What has made the municipal government of Francisco Jodar is "the progressive tax charge."
Before winning at least the larger the bonus applied to it, and now is the same regardless of what you earn, whether 20,000 or 200,000 euros.
OTHER PROMISES DEPARTED
Jódar Francisco agreed to increase the property tax rebate period for public housing from three to five years.
He also announced that bonificaría municipal licenses and taxes that citizens could pay municipal taxes over the Internet and execute the budget over 90%.
None of these commitments has been fulfilled.
In fact, in the last financial year, the 2009, budget spending has been left without running more than 25%.
MINIMUM INVESTMENT IN MUNICIPAL
With the savings in spending and interest, with new funding and attracting new Jódar Francisco resources committed to achieve an increase "very important" in the investment of City Hall.
The truth is that the opposite has happened.
The investment chapter of the Budget for 2011 has decreased compared to the previous budget from 17.2 million euros to only 14.3.
But in 2007, the last socialist in the City budget was allocated 38 million euro investment chapter.
The districts, the forgotten ones
In 2011, the only five investments specified in the relevant chapter, and of which four are fully funded by the Autonomous Community, referred to in the town.
There are no investments in the districts.
Everything has been done in the councils in the last two years has been thanks to Plan E government of Spain which has executed more than 40 investments in rural areas of the municipality.
