GENERAL BUDGET 2012

VICTOR J. SPEECH

ROMERA spokesman IU-GREEN IN THE CITY

The amount presented in the 2012 general budget these amounts according to his own memory of Euros 12,360,331.75 budget that relate to measures of control and innovation of local government with which to start, and announce that we disagree, obey the grounds that cuts in services and rights enjoyed by citizens and the workers themselves of this City.

In memory of the budget indicates that investment goes to 2,248,746.62 Euros and it is presumed that it is done without hiring new credit operations, making a reference that are financed with 30% equity, do not say budgets is to be paid directly by the citizens of Puerto Lumbreras, given the rise in taxes and operated especially in municipal taxes rather more expensive everyday citizens / as in Puerto Lumbreras, as this price review of these taxes and municipal taxes is detrimental not only to citizens and residents of Puerto Lumbreras, but also affects the service sector and the business sector in Puerto Lumbreras, and will be a burden to the creation of more jobs and wealth in Puerto Lumbreras driving away investment the future.

Examples will be significantly increased water bills (by solid waste collection rate) or the tax imposed on building permits.

Ultimately what is sought in these budgets is to offset the revenue shortfall through direct and indirect taxes, increase fees based on the neighbors pay for the services they receive, the upward revision is made of the vast majority of the tax ordinances of our town.

There is also talk of reducing municipal debt in 1 million, but it is obvious that only a few weeks ago has had to resort to a credit transaction with the ICO to meet the payment to suppliers and creditors of the City Council, an amount close to half a million Euros, which is reduced in the future the resources available to our council, as this loan was financed at the expense of the participation of Puerto Lumbreras in State taxes.

We here a proposal because we believe that a liquidity solutions to recover the City Council passes receivable rights for previous years, especially in Chapters 1 (direct taxes) 2 (indirect taxes) 3 (fees and charges) and 7 (capital transfers), and this concept amounts to a total of 5,063,270.94 Euros, and is especially concentrated in the years from 2008 onwards.

In terms of investment as in the General Budget of the City Council for the year 2011 a large part of the investments that we face today are for projects from previous years some of them already in operation, but pending liquidating the company responsible of its execution or which has not been possible to complete due to lack of liquidity of the CCAA or the breach of its commitments, such examples are the "Remodeling Center 3rd Age Vicente Ruiz Flames", Museum, Folk "Virgen del Rosario" or Center Young Art.

It continues to invest a significant amount of money in restoration of the Castle Nogalte amounting to 325 thousand euros and from our point of view it seems too much concentration of resources and investment in an exclusive area of ​​the municipality, as the Investment to date exceeds the 3.5 Mill, especially because this large investment has not resulted in social or economic profitability for example in retail and service sector of our municipality.

Our opinion or proposal in this regard is that this amount should focus more on items such as the Works and Services Plan and thus favoring other parts of Puerto Lumbreras.

From our point of view, despite these investments under the CCAA budgets for this year, the lack of liquidity in our region, its high deficit, the evolution of the economy and more predictable adjustments that are announced the Central Government as it looks like it has happened in other years and other items can not be made against these investments.

Debt financial institutions is 6.5 million euros of which more than 2 / 3 parts correspond to loans taken in recent years and the debt is more than half of the budget presented this year.

In the case of employees of the Municipality of Puerto Lumbreras in Chapter I on both Personal Staff Officer and Labor, it is noteworthy in comparison with PG in 2011 maintaining a freeze on total gross remuneration of civil servants and staff work in Adjustment Plan of the Government RDL 8 / 2010, which represented a 5% reduction in pay, with which the political group to disagree again.

Besides rejecting the Adjustment and Innovation Plan which is also presented to this House in all matters affecting workers.

As to what are the items of expenditure for next year introduced a series of adjustments, reductions or cuts with which we disagree as:

BASIC UTILITY AREA

Reduction in Waste Collection Service and Solid Waste is reduced by more than 160 thousand Euros if we consider the amounts that are included in the proposed resolution that takes this full, from 695 000 Euros to 531 Mil.

and in any case correspond to those included in the budget.

AREA OF SOCIAL PROTECTION AND PROMOTION

Reduction in 31 thousand Euros (169 thousand) in the contribution to the small Municipal Culture Society, which last year revised its rates to offset the reduction to practice in the budget this year, amounting to 40 Thousand Euros.

PRODUCTION AREA PUBLIC GOODS

Reduction in the provision for cultural promotion (where besides the PG present included former title called "youth" worth 19 thousand Euros in the section Transfer to cultural associations.

Area of activity of economic

Under the heading of the Information Society we still do not understand why he makes a transfer of 4,000 Euros to the Municipal Radio Lumbreras, SL when it is being operated by a private entity for profit, it also sends the appropriate advertising.

Also does not match the amount shown in this budget for the Subsidiaries, as reported by intervention, because the amount is recorded here is of 5,100 Euros for the subsidy of City Hall.

ACTION AREA GENERAL

Strikes us as in the provision for transfers to political groups is the reduction in subsidy grants to political groups in opposition, which is accepted by another party for the United Left, which is not acceptable and unacceptable is not covered in the same proportion to the PP that remains in the same level as in past years (8, 3.8, 2.2) (8, 2, 1.35)

Finally and finally transfer the government team in our disappointment that PG 2012 does not establish any reference or starting to promote the maintenance of the Parador, given that this year will be key to its future as we know it.
