"While now we try to blame all the political groups for the ruinous situation they were taking us to, nobody made the slightest criticism, except for the opposition groups that denounced what was happening and the consequences that now we know "
"We are facing the two latest convictions against the City Council, Urbaser and Inmonuar, a great blow that, although expected, is still a great grievance to the public coffers, it is the result of the penultimate collisions of the" black stage "of absolute majorities and PP governments that bring these consequences."
They affirm.
In the case of the ruling of Urbaser, we are talking about € 6,000,000 without costs or interests included, and in the Inmonuar, or the "agreement of the Raiguero", of € 2,500,000 with costs and interest.
The terms of appeal are still open and in both procedures the City will appeal the ruling in order to defend the public interest and seek the least possible impact for the institution.
If we make a historical brief, in 2006, being mayor for the Popular Party Juan Morales, the "agreement of the Raiguero" is signed and the more than two million that the promoter now claims are entered into the municipal coffers.
Fact that supposed the beginning of the investigation of the UCO and the "Operation Totem", since it is public and recognized by the parts, that were negotiated some commissions where the then mayor and others, "took their part", in a clear situation of crime and bribery, which was recognized by the justice.
"While now it is intended to" put us all in the same bag "and blaming all political groups for the ruinous situation to which these actions have led us, at that time no one made the slightest criticism nor was a citizen movement founded In this regard, with the exception of Izquierda Unida and PSOE, which at that time from the opposition denounced what was happening and the consequences that we now know. "
We continue to ask ourselves, when will the only and true people in charge be able to give an explanation to the people of Totana?
What happened to those millions of euros that we know were entered and when they were returned, they were gone?
Is the PP to face at some point and assume their responsibilities?
These methods of making politics, supported by the ballot boxes by a large sector of the population for 12 years, are the only reason why Totana has an unsustainable debt and for which this municipality has been "stained" with corruption.
To go to the origin of the million-dollar sentence of Urbaser, we must place ourselves in 2009, when Governing the PP of Martinez Andreo, and being councilors the current spokesperson Popupar Isabel María Sánchez, the current councilor María José Bedia and the current Popular Deputy Juan Pagán, approves with his votes, a renewal of the contract with said concessionaire that contemplated a duration until 2032 under conditions totally leonine against public interests.
"This operation that was born as a result of a fundraising effort due to the need for liquidity of the then PP Government Team, which already owed more than three million euros to the company, contemplated an amortization table in which exponential growth was expected of the population, as well as of spending and income derived from drinking water, something that never happened and that was a delirium of the speculative growth model of the real estate bubble, according to these forecasts, we would be passing from a turnover of more than 15,000,000 €, of € 3,655,000 starting in 2009, and if the City Council could not meet the payment commitments, the company would be directly with the income in that concept and also the collection of garbage. "
They insure from Ganar Totana.
We find it curious to hear from the mouthpiece of the Popular Party Spokesperson, who when he arrived at the mayor's office met with this contract under leonine conditions, when he should, at least, have known what he was voting in 2009, when he was a member of the municipal plenary and of the Government Team supported this operation.
Proceed then to the termination of the contract in 2012, which causes this complaint for breakage of the same and from there is collected the money that residents pay their water bills to spend at current cost and stop paying both Mancomunidad and Canales del Taibilla, with whom they accumulate a debt of 8 million euros in 2015 as well as the garbage collection company, in this case reaching 4 million euros of debt.
It is not until the entry of this government team when the situation with the RSU company is normalized and also in 2017, when Juan José Cánovas is mayor, the debt with MCT begins to be paid off.
"This concatenation of facts is what has led us to the socio-economic situation that we now suffer, so the argument of some members of the PP that they were not, is not valid for Winning Totana, since it is necessary for democratic hygiene that the Popular Party assumes its responsibilities and its serious errors that have mortgaged the future of our municipality for many years. "
They conclude.
