The work is not executed is the bus station in La Paca, as well as social nature programs |
The number two in the PSOE candidate for municipal elections, Rafael Ruiz, reported this morning that the team Jódar Francisco city government has been forced by the autonomous region to repay grants amounting to 120,000 euros for breach of a series of works and social programs that were expected to develop in Lorca.
According to the minutes of the Local Government Board dated April 15, three motions of the deputy mayor of Economy and Finance, in which the Autonomous Community of Murcia City Council has requested the return of paths Lorca grants Lorca had emphasized that because they have not executed.
The first one is a subsidy of EUR 116,664.92 to the Directorate General for Transport and Ports of the Ministry of Public Works and Land Management granted the government team of Francisco Jódar for Construction of Bus Station, Light La Paca.
As a result of which the City has not executed the work from the regional government to the City Council are demanding return of the subsidy than 12,018 euros in interest on late payments.
The PP lied to the citizens of La Paca, who are out of bus
Ironically in 2008, the team spokesman municipal government, Eulalia Ibarra, announced the construction of a light bus station in the village of La Paca to improve and strengthen services scheduled passenger transport between the urban and rural districts high, and thus contribute to 4,000 citizens.
Then, Ibarra said the planned investment would be € 180,000, of which 135,000 euros would be provided through a grant of 135,000 euros from the Ministry of Works, Housing and Transport.
Ruiz was asked with what face look Jódar think the citizens of the districts high, having missed an investment of this nature.
In the second case, the Instituto Murciano Social Action, under the Ministry of Social Policy, Women in Immigration which requires the council to reinstate part of the grant on "Help Integration Programmes."
Specifically, we have to give other 1560.27 euros that have not been used for this purpose.
Finally, the Department of Youth, under the Ministry of the Presidency and government requests the consistory lorquino the reinstatement of part of the grant on "dynamic activities and provision of information services and advice for young people during the year 2009. "
The City Council must be returned in this case the grant EUR 1322.11 95.26 euros more in interest on late payments.
In all cases, the Local Government Committee chaired Jódar recognized and authorized spending the money back and interest payments.
Therefore, Rafael Ruiz, expressed his outrage at the inability of Jódar and his government team to run a series of projects for which funding had.
"It does not get anyone," said Ruiz.
"In La Paca run out of the bus station, have lost funds already appropriated to Lorca for integration programs or for information and advice for young Lorca, that is, and not because they are unable to effectively manage its own resources Hall is also allowed Jódar luxury of letting escape economic items that come from other governments and are designed to develop infrastructure and services for citizens of Lorca. "
But the straw that broke the camel, according to Ruiz, is that "not only leak financial aid for the municipality amounting to 120,000 euros, but a failure of execution will make Lorca have to pay over 12,000 euros in interest. An absolutely unnecessary spending that's out of the pockets of Lorca and a luxury that the City coffers can not afford the government team that has assembled. "
For socialists, this money could be used to pay suppliers or to comply with commitments that the City has acquired associations and groups to which you have not paid since 2009.
For number two in the socialist candidate, "Lorca does not deserve so much inefficiency and it is time to put Mr. Jódar where it belongs: in the opposition."
Moreover, since the PSOE today announced the publication in the Official Gazette of the Autonomous Community of the call for grants for municipalities for the implementation and operation of facilities projects use renewable energy resources for the year 2011.
Ruiz asked Jódar, seeking "in a timely manner grants, which we will manage us in a position from June."
