San Javier, Friday, December 2, 2016.- On the morning of Thursday, December 1, the orange group of the municipality called a press conference to inform that they are not going to vote in favor of the budgets that the Government team has elaborated For next year because they oppose head-on the rate of garbage that is included in them.
The Citizens' spokesman, Antonio Murcia, wrapped by the other two ediles of his formation, María José García and Carlos Jiménez, has assured that "our will is to want to approve them, but not at the expense of the pocket of all the citizens".
He explained that this "is a measure for which the Popular Party has not had any of the opposition parties," and "we believe, of course, that they can be approved without introducing this rate, by reducing The item destined to investments: eliminating superfluous expenses, as well as other ordinary ones ".
Also, Antonio Murcia, has given another reason why he has decided to oppose the next budgets as it is the high defense of his party by "the middle classes and people who can not afford more expenses."
And although they are "in favor of paying taxes to pay for public services," they consider "that many taxes are already paid in San Javier, and that this time is not the most appropriate to approve a rate of waste."
They say that now is "not the time to take money out of citizens' pocket, but to keep it so that they can spend it and invest in the future of their own family or in their own businesses" .
In conclusion, Citizens have reached out to the Popular Party to approve them consensuously, although he has reproached them that, "in the absence of three weeks for its approval, he had not yet sent them a draft of the budgets" on which to work for a reduction Of the expenses included "in them.
