The Municipal Group PP will call through to a motion to full Commonwealth Taibilla Channels not apply to an increase in water rates by the increase in spending power.
The Commonwealth of Taibilla Channel provides water for human consumption to a total of 79 municipalities, of which 43 are in the Region of Murcia, 34 of the province of Alicante and two of Albacete.
Popular spokesman, David Amoros, said in his motion that this organization planned this year to freeze the rates charged by water to the municipalities in its territory, but apparently the increase in electricity consumption bills to which they front has soared dramatically.
In the last Executive Committee meeting of the Commonwealth, was reported to increase energy expenditure by 10%, which totals in additional cost of between 600,000 and one million euros each year.
Amoros said in the motion that is predictable, given that the only income that the agency has come precisely from the municipalities to which it supplies, it is likely that this increase in spending power directly impacting municipalities, among which is included Totana.
The popular council indicates that as you know the liquidity problems that have the vast majority of Spanish municipalities would come to pass even more in their coffers if the fees are paid by consistories supplied are increased by the increase in energy expenditure Electric.
This situation is leading, apparently, to the Commonwealth to consider developing a project to reduce costs even by installing photovoltaic panels that just cheapen the electric bill, but is a measure that would have short-term effects or prevent the payment to take the energy cost of electricity by the municipalities involved.
