Abusive conditions for the payment of rent
In another vein, the Socialist councilor expressed amazement Casalduero Isabel because the City Council requiring the families left homeless by the earthquake and will need a deposit to rent another "who do not receive income or revenues in excess of 1,300 per month. "
This requirement, contained in the municipal website, the practice prevents hundreds of families can welcome this advance.
Casalduero noted that many families feel right now, "suffocated" because they have mortgages to pay regular expenses such as electricity and water, and also to meet the payment of rent until they receive aid.
