The Mayor of Lorca, Francisco Jodar explained that after dropping the price of water in late 2011, will not change the tax rate of the sections that apply to families who do not waste and will reduce many of the companies.

The full City Council has approved Lorca, with the votes for the PP and against the opposition, updating water rates, which the Mayor of Lorca, Francisco Jodar, that "vary by less than the CPI in the average consumption, assuming that families will pay only 0.5 per month more. "

The Mayor of Lorca, Francisco Jodar explained that "this renewal rates responds to consumer demands, complying with a court of the complaint by FACUA, which in late 2011 the City Council lowered the rate water by not having to pay the full price of consumption to reach final stretch. "

In this sense, consumers who spend less than 29 m3 are keeping the price of m3 of water over the slope made late last year, and applying the criteria of the Water Framework Directive only goes to his family that waste, ie consumption exceeding this logic.

And as a measure of social correction for large families, people with disabilities greater than 33% and pensioners who earn the minimum wage makes them a bonus of 50%.

Moreover, this pricing is responding to the demand of the Chamber of Commerce to encourage the installation of businesses in the town and generate employment, which has eliminated the last two stages, which are assumed to reduce the majority of these companies the current rate.

In this sense, laughter considered the statements made by the Socialist spokesman, who did not want to explain to people why the Socialists rose so outrageous fees for the company to increase its profits severely. "

Morales explained that "on the contrary, since the governing People's Party have reduced the benefits of the company because he was not moved to the citizens increases electricity tariff of 120% and 115% of Taibilla is supporting the company, as the average of the revised bill in the last four years is only the CPI increase.
