The training imposes a socialist candidate to the Mayor's Office a 22-point agreement to define the political roadmap of the municipality until 2019
"The arrogant and reckless attitude of the PP government team and its inability to solve the problems of our municipality have forced us to seek solutions," said Orange spokeswoman Ana Isabel Belijar
The municipal group of Cs in Pliego has expressed its support for the motion of censure presented this morning before the municipal plenary.
The Orange spokeswoman, Ana Isabel Belijar, explained that "before an incapacitating and irresponsible government team, which has put at risk the finances, public services and honor of all the co-workers, we have decided to revive public life and subject our City Council to a process of regeneration and transparency, with the aim of uncovering and denouncing all irregular actions that may have occurred during the last two years. "
The support of Cs to the initiative that has led the PSOE to the Mayor's Office is based on the 22 points of the Governance and Democratic Regeneration Agreement signed between the municipal groups of Citizens and PSOE, "which will be the road map of the Government team, In which Citizens will not enter, and includes measures such as a financial audit and the elaboration of the List of Jobs of the City, as well as an urgent reactivation of the public function in order to unblock the elaboration of the municipal budget and several key investments For the locality ".
In his address during the special session, Belijar spoke of "disappointment" to describe the attitude of the PP government team in these two years of the legislature: "We are disappointed because the people we trust to get Pliego Crisis in which they have immersed are not only incapable of fulfilling their promise, but also have placed our Consistory at serious risk, as evidenced by the requirements of the Ministry of Finance and the Court of Accounts. "
The spokeswoman further stated that "this situation is compounded by the investigation by the Office of the illegal fractionation of cleaning service contracts or the fact that local associations may have to return the subsidies received this year, as well as the Penalties for illegal hookups to the electricity grid continue to accumulate before the City Council. "
Citizens Pliego demonstrated its responsibility by putting forward a budget in 2016 that included amendments that meant a saving of 85,000 euros for the local coffers and discounts on the receipt of the IBI for the cofgueros.
"We had to live up to it and we were there, but the arrogant and reckless attitude of the PP Government team, its easy and free criticism and its inability to solve the problems of our municipality have forced us to seek solutions," explains Ana Isabel Belijar.
Citizens wanted to put in writing the 22 measures that will mark the local politics until the end of the legislature in order to avoid precisely repeating the mistakes that have led to the current situation, "marked by the paralysis of the Government team, a Alarming lack of transparency and a lack of will to implement and implement the numerous motions adopted in plenary, "said the Orange spokesperson.
The compromise document includes a package of economic recovery measures, including the drafting of a Multiannual Employment Plan, the reduction of bureaucratic and administrative barriers to SMEs, self-employed and entrepreneurs or the application of local tax reduction measures - especially the IBI - that were approved in Plenary.
"We also want to unblock government activity in order to produce a realistic municipal budget," adds Belijar, who recalls that "we can not afford a government team that has only been able to draw up a budget in a legislature, Forward thanks to the amendments of Citizens ".
The Agreement on Governance and Democratic Regeneration also includes measures such as the elaboration of the Municipal Heritage Inventory and a list of service contracts and technical assistance signed by the Consistory.
In the area of ​​transparency, the agreement also includes measures to facilitate access to municipal information by municipal groups, which will also provide adequate public spaces for the development of their work.
"The situation to which the PP has given us has made us formalize a roadmap to the PSOE - the governance agreement and its 22 points - to put Pliego back in the last two years of the legislature.
That has been the 'price' of our support: an agreement signed in writing with real measures of momentum and change for our municipality.
No chairs, no council or mayoralties, despite the fact that both parties have put them on the table, "says Belijar, who points out that Citizens will continue in the opposition overseeing the work of the Government team:" It is not a question of occupying armchairs, If not try to improve things.
Citizens have been more benevolent with the PP than with the PSOE, because although both have the same conditions of governance, only the PSOE - after the bad experience suffered with the PP -, has had to reach a prior agreement in writing to define The political future of Pliego ".
