As seems usual, the last week of the year has once again host the plenary Alguazas municipal budgets.
In the full year's biggest, held on Tuesday 27 December, the PP government team, and particularly the Mayor, José Antonio Fernández Lladó, returned to give proof of their authoritarian spirit and few want to leave to participate opposition in any decision affecting the municipality.
An authoritarian and arrogant mayor (again)
The Mayor called the House two working days in advance and to make matters worse, the commission convened briefing for 45 minutes before the plenary.
The aim was to obstruct as much as possible the debate, and so he criticized our spokesperson, Blas Angel Ruipérez, in his first speech: "It turns out to prepare the full year's biggest, where budgets are approved, you will only allow access to information two days before the meeting. It is regrettable that it is not the first time we do it: you like that for the budget, the opposition has the shortest time possible. "
The plenary is expected tense.
Lladó again show its authoritarianism and arrogance when he interrupted the first turn of speech of the leader of UXA, the second opposition group, and not let him finish his argument.
Our spokesman reproached Lladó their conduct, as it was in clear violation of the rights of the opposition council, but ignored.
It was a sad scene, featuring a Mayor who conceals increasingly less inclined to leave their little part to opposition members.
The PSOE Alguazas defended the interests of its intervention
In his speech, Blas Angel Ruipérez, Municipal Socialist Group spokesperson, beat out the most important blocks of the budget prepared by the PP.
We collect here a summary of his words, our spokesperson told Lladó the many shortcomings of the document and offered some suggestions for future Alguazas:
- STAFF COSTS "stresses in the surface and negatively, the increase in personnel costs, at around € 80,000.
You presumed that the expenditure for salaries of the council and the post of secretary is lower in this legislature.
According to his explanation, the reduction in their salaries is 7.30%, but the overall budget has decreased by 12.25%, so it should be consistent and match his salary for the deduction.
If the budget is reduced by 12.25%, why not reduce their salaries also a 12.25%? '.
Later, our spokesperson explained why Lladó lie about the salaries of the council: "You, when he tells his version of events, says it has reduced spending on salaries around € 6,000 but does not say is there a game called "elective Compensation" with a value of over € 25,000 for this year increased by more than 22,000 €.
In this game, the opposition groups receive only € 1,500 per year for attending regular plenary session, tell us do you do with the other € 23,000.
Did you divide your council as diet? "
- CURRENT EXPENSES AND SERVICES: "The reduction has been around half a million euros, we understand that is where you should have an impact on issues such as protocol costs, use of telephone, advertising and propaganda, and so on.
It is noteworthy that spending on infrastructure and maintenance of buildings is reduced by around € 150,000, hopefully no impact on buildings such as schools, library, theater.
Furthermore, we see that there are many labeled "Miscellaneous expenditure", which do not specify the destination of the economy.
We would like to targeting these points. "
And it was even more specific when he spoke of the many budget cuts: "Explain why the drastic reduction of € 35,000 for office supplies.
More questions: why would a € 20,000 reduction in compulsory education books?
Why are other reductions in areas such as cultural activities, youth, women, seniors, school sports, etc..?
For your salary is not lacking, but for books, education and culture, no problem cutting.
It should also explain to you what to enter an item of € 100,000 for legal fees.
This item has tripled compared to 2010. "
- INTEREST EXPENSE: "In this block, we are surprised the creation of an item of € 30,000 for interest on late payments.
I guess it's because the City does not meet the payment terms of their financial obligations.
Another thing: if we have budgeted to pay as interest on long-term debt an amount of 94,000 €, how can we pay as interest on treasury operations the amount of € 60,000?
It seems an outrage.
And considering his invention of the game to cover interest on arrears.
As a postscript, we have a budget for the Consortium of the Greenway, but there is no way the terminology we would say our brand new president, "as God commands."
Another thing that strikes us is that game called "Sports Volunteers," with an amount of 10,000 €.
To my knowledge, "voluntary" and "cash" are opposites.
Who or who are charging these 10,000 €?
Have you noticed Councilman Sports that these "volunteers" earn more money than all the sports associations of the town, attended by over 500 people and there are really volunteers, of which NO charge? "
- INVESTMENT REAL: "As to real investments, although we do not believe: only 50,000 €?
After seeing the budgets of the autonomous region and to see its Annex Investment for the 2012 budget, we understand that removing the filter, you are not going to do anything Alguazas.
Hopefully the picture improves over the years, because this is unacceptable.
Alguazas deserves a greater effort in this section, seeking that the works are executed by companies in the municipality.
We believe that this would be a good way.
In this section of real investments, we miss the work requested by the Socialist Party on the renewal of the electrical installation of primary schools in the municipality.
Please note that was passed unanimously in full above.
Please note also that the loans were for failure to begin to be noticed.
That is, their intention-fetched and failed in the previous legislature, to finance investments through sale of municipal assets is beginning to be felt much in the municipal coffers. "
- REVENUE: "Hopefully the percentage of actual income is as high as possible and meets the expectations of the standards developed.
If not, we will have oil.
Regarding indirect taxes, and we told him in 2010: not only the housing crisis is causing the decline in tax facilities, construction, absence of a General Urban Plan creates a lot of uncertainty in the private developers, who are waiting to have a better use of their land.
That will not be possible until a final approval of the General Plan.
The current transfers section confirms that there is a significant reduction in the economic contribution of the autonomous community of this municipality.
We're talking half a million euros less.
Another big surprise is that this budget does not provide for disposal of municipal land.
I do not know whether to congratulate or ask why this change of opinion.
The fact is that we have never seen a budget developed by you which is not collected municipal disposal of assets to finance investment.
Now he will tell us. "
The Socialist Party voted against the budget prepared by the PP
Angel Blas Ruipérez concluded by summarizing why the PSOE vote against this budget for 2012: "The Socialist group has been quite clear when explaining its disagreement with this budget.
It is very improvable issues.
In addition, there are others that are not consistent with its talk of austerity and with the times.
And if we consider that you do not have the socialist group to develop these assumptions can not pretend that we give our approval. "
In this way, and also vote against UXA, PB approved the budgets alone.
Lladó insults the opposition members
The last speaker in the debate on the budget was given by the Mayor.
The first thing he did was to qualify the members of the opposition of "demagogues" and "obsessed only with the salaries of politicians."
Surely he was frustrated that his tactic of calling the House at short notice had not worked, and devoid of arguments, had no choice but to resort to insults.
It was sad that Lladó, after convening the House-we insist-two working days before and 45 minutes before a committee thereof, accused the opposition members' proposals do not give "and" no intention to change his speech after the commission informed. "
And more sad was that to defend their budgets, rather than talk about them and explain them, are devoted to speak, for the umpteenth time, of "when Mr. Ruipérez was Councillor of Finance in 2007."
Grievous.
Apparently, the Mayor of Alguazas not want to know that the last term was his work, and that the argument of the socialist legacy is not only useless, but ridiculous.
The Lladó and a matter of irresponsibility, a mayor who can not admit mistakes (after five years in power, a failed Sanitation Plan municipal coffers and a large number of loans, and debt policies to suppliers) and believed beyond good and evil.
For him to have opposition is a mere formality, rather than as an opportunity to collect proposals and initiatives for the future Alguazas.
An attitude not only wrong but hardly acceptable in these times.
