Full press release sent by PSOE:
PSOE spokesman in Las Torres de Cotillas accused of insensitivity, inconsistency and irresponsibility to the municipal government of the PP, by raising taxes during times of economic crisis, while keeping the waste of money without control.
The Municipal spokesperson for the PSOE in Las Torres de Cotillas, Christopher Gomez, has reported the second "brutal tax increases" that are going to have to the citizens by the Municipal Government of PP, which in the final plenary municipality passed a series of amendments to the tax ordinances so crazy that increase local taxes, "without taking into account the current economic situation, while alternatives to those facing difficulties, and being inconsistent with the different political positions to help most in need. "
Gomez explained that, for the year 2009, citizens have to pay in addition to the known increases this year, municipal taxes will rise as follows:
IBI: up 24% in the contribution known as housing,
24% rise in the contribution of industries
24% rise in the contribution of rural land.
Keep in mind that plays the Cadastral review which, according to meters prices force applied by the City, could double the cost of city tax bill.
We must also take into account the change in classification of land led by the General Urban Plan.
Day Care: 60% rise in the monthly fee.
This measure also irresponsible, is inconsistent and against the electoral pledge which promised free education from 0 to 3 years.
Using the tip: put a price between 4.5 and 6 Euros per tonne.
Public cost for sports facilities, up from 40% to 80%, and thus become rich facilities.
Moreover, fixing the same prices for facilities in the districts of Florida, the pulpits and Media League, when they were free before.
For Christopher Gomez, the sole purpose of this excessive council tax rise is to cover the large budget deficit that has the council, which is driven by the waste of money without control and the lack of effectiveness in controlling tax evasion.
Gomez considers a robbery to Torreño and Torrena by the municipal government of the Partido Popular.
Christopher Gomez wants to ask a brainstorming exercise to neighbors Cotillas Towers, reminding how the PP were promised lower taxes, more and better services for all, more wealth for all, when what you are doing is to the poorest families every day, every day plus tax, making the utility business for a few.
The mayor ignored the Regional Government is the one with the most transfers because it demands that meets the election commitment that it acquired with the citizens of our people and while all political parties in the various administrations take agreements to help families, just think Torrena bleed families.
And families who can not pay, who will help?
