The councilman of Change Murcia Sergio Ramos has assured today that the draft of the municipal budgets for this year includes some forecasts that "are unrealistic" and that are not based on the needs of the citizenship.

For Ramos, the project of the government team promises investments that "know in advance that it will not carry out" because it has been shown that "it does not execute more than 35 percent" every year, which "continues to artificially inflate the numbers of the budget to simulate an exit to the crisis that never arrives ".

In addition, he regretted that the draft includes a budget item of 2.86 percent for municipal boards, "very far" of 8 percent that contemplate the Regulation of Citizen Participation of the City of Murcia and the ruling of the Superior Court of Justice.

In this regard, he pointed out that, "beyond the big infrastructures" such as Murcia Río or San Esteban, the local government team "continues to abandon neighborhoods and districts, postponing necessary investments such as the completion of the Costera Sur, the improvement of the public transport and works so many times promised as the Beniaján pool ".

"Neither does it take into account the budgetary needs that the application of the new Contracting Law requires in terms of personnel and technical means," Ramos insisted, for whom the PP "demonstrates once again its inability to govern as a minority, delaying the presentation of the budgets to the month of May, whose full debate will not come until June or July. "

The mayor has argued that the project does not have a timetable or an established debate procedure, although Cambiemos Murcia has demanded it on numerous occasions and even took a motion to the Plenary last February that was approved, "although as is custom is not being executed. "

Similarly, criticized that the councilor for Finance, Contracting and Urban Mobility, Eduardo Martínez-Oliva, has informed the media and municipal groups of this draft at the same time, "with five months of delay and numerous interpellations to to come forward. "

"Once again, the Popular Party of Ballesta intends to carry out a closed door negotiation in the purest Persian market style where parties are exchanged in exchange for support, without transparency or a debate with citizens about the model of city that each group defends, said Ramos, who also lamented the absence of the liquidation of the 2017 budget, without which you can not know how the PP executed the budget last year.
