HUERMUR preclude the municipality of Murcia bonifique downgrade them to property developers IBI (27/05/2014)

First initiated by the Association of Real Estate in the Region (APRIM) receipts against Property Tax (IBI) campaign, where asking for bonuses for over 1,500 land owners in action units paralyzed by the crisis, and which, they say, do not have all the urban services, HUERMUR expresses its total rejection of these bonuses between 80 and 90% of the tax is authorized, for such reduction means that the benefits are for your personal enjoyment and now in loss, claim that the citizens take Murcia.

Moreover, these subsidies would mean a real discrimination because there are thousands of families in the garden of Murcia whose homes lack urban services such as sewer, sidewalks, public transportation, etc.., And the city does not lower the tax they pay.

If they cut the IBI these 1,500 property developers must also lowered the thousands of Murcia families who do not receive adequate urban services for which they are charged the tax.

The Land Registry Act is very clear, and numerous Supreme Court case law, in which the obligation to pay IBI for sectored urban development land included in a section of the General Plan and other soils of this kind becomes clear from the time of approval of the urban instrument establishing the provisions for their development, and also the ground and transformed by urban services have established by zoning laws or, alternatively, by having road access, water supply, drainage and electricity supply.

Furthermore, since HUERMUR notes that these bonuses are very difficult to fit in Article 74 of the Local Finance Law, which empowers municipalities to implement facultative bonuses in full amount of property tax, so the end could be facing a flagrant breach of the law by the City if it agrees to grant such bonuses without the legal conditions are met.

To this we must add the bonus to property developers would be a considerable decline in the collection of municipal taxes, which inexorably decline local government would have to compensate with the rise of other taxes the rest of Murcia.

Note that HUERMUR been requesting since 2011 the municipality of Murcia applying a bonus in the IBI property for urban nature, consisting of urban or developable land, found in the garden of Murcia and today are devoted to agricultural or livestock activities (both marketing and consumption), or having species protected under current legislation vegetation, all established from minimum dimensions that would be determined in the tax regulation and in accordance with Article 74 of the Local Finance Law, which allows this bonus for those lands pegged or preeminence of primary activities of agriculture, livestock, forestry, or similar character and which have a level of competence municipal services, infrastructure or community facilities to lower existing areas or consolidated in areas of the municipality.

All this must be accompanied by a revision of the General Urban Plan of the municipality of Murcia to classify soils according to their physical reality, not the tax collection and speculative interest of the City and other stakeholders.

Thus, it would reward those who contribute to Murcia maintaining fertile soils that help regulate the microclimate of the valley, protecting desertification and vegetation that serves to purify the air we all breathe, maintaining a singular place as Murcia Orchard of major environmental, landscape and cultural values, which, ultimately, is all.

With this measure the cultivation and care of the garden of Murcia, which would win all to improve the environment of the city and the districts would be encouraged.

To offset the drop in revenue from this tax, the City should apply surcharge that allows you the Law, and coming down in Article 72.4 of the Law Regulating Local Tax, demanding a surcharge of up to 50% of the amount of tax to homes that are permanently unemployed.

Besides a powerful reason, which is the social justice and non-discrimination among citizens, is that these measures, first conservation garden of Murcia, which would win all to improve our environment would be encouraged, and on the other hand, put pressure on maintaining vacant houses that put on the market and increase the supply of rental.

The establishment of these measures is an exclusive competence of the city of Murcia, which only modify the municipal ordinance regulating the tax and would apply.

Since 2011 the City has HUERMUR rejecting these proposals, with a bonus of IBI is intended for people who have never had the courage to speculate with their gardens and were caught in a maelstrom urban unwillingly, so now the City can not give those developers who prompted reclassification of soil modifications promoted PGMO and procedures for urban development sectors, and actively contributing to the creation of the disastrous housing bubble, the bonus applied in what could be fraud law in granting the City what the law denies them.
