- The Councilor of Public Services, Juan Pedro Torralba, acknowledged yesterday that the works of the first phase of the free parking will not be reactivated, in the best scenario, until mid-May, "we gave them three months to do it, then we allowed they did it before they presented the new draft of the accounts, so far we have arrived, "says the spokesman of Cs, Manuel Padín

Cartagena, Friday, March 1.

The PSOE recognized yesterday in the Plenary that it will not reactivate the works of the gratuitous parking next to the Santa Lucia Hospital before the approval of the municipal budget of 2019, "already we have noticed publicly in several occasions that if this happened we would not be in conditions to negotiate the accounts with the local government, so we will present our amendments to the project when it touches, but they will not be consensual nor will we reach a prior agreement with the socialists because they have shown they are not capable of complying with what they sign, "the Cs spokesman announced today. Cartagena, Manuel Padín.

The mayor of Public Services, Juan Pedro Torralba, also referred to the lack of a report from the Directorate General of Roads, "but without money, with or without report the works will remain paralyzed, probably until after the municipal elections," laments Padín.

"We were more than generous with the PSOE Government, in the agreement that we signed, we included that these works will be executed within a period not exceeding three months from the announcement in the BORM of the final approval of the General Budget (July 23) 2018), we allow this non-compliance in exchange for reactivating the works before presenting the new draft, more than seven months later, the works are still stopped, and so will continue at least until May in the best scenario so we take for broken the agreement, and that prevents us from approving another: not fulfill your word signed with Cs has consequences ", explained Manuel Padín.

The PSOE has privileged other works in their budget modifications, "has been able to comply but has preferred to do other things".

The draft budgets, in March

The Government of Cartagena committed yesterday, to questions of Cs, to deliver the draft of the budget project in the month of March.

It is the third date offered by the Socialist Executive.

The PSOE continues the harmful tradition that before PP or MC maintained when they ruled the municipality, delaying beyond reasonable the approval of municipal budgets, "says the spokesman of the Liberal Party, Manuel Padin, who states that" on this occasion, and for the first time in the democratic history of Cartagena, the fact of not having approved (even presented) the file of tax ordinances, rates and public prices for the year 2019 when the vast majority of Spanish municipalities took it forward in October 2018 ".

"The PSOE is missing again and again his word," says Manuel Padin who has reviewed some of the latest breaches, "missed his commitment in the Debate on the State of the Municipality, to start negotiating with the municipal groups budgets before the end of 2018, also broke its promise to reduce by 30 percent in January, through tax ordinances, the issuance of building permits for the rehabilitation of buildings in depressed areas of the municipality and fails to comply with COEC, Hostecar and Agrup Hotel by not reviewing the tax regime that affects them so that it is more favorable for traditional commerce and reactivating the sector ".

The Cs spokesman says that his group did prepare to meet the deadlines set in the legislation, "we have since October 2018 a battery of measures with the aim of incorporating them into our tax and tax system, but the PSOE maintains the blockade."
