The municipal spokespersons of PSOE and Ciudadanos (Cs) in Granadilla de Abona, Jennifer Miranda and Adán García, respectively, criticize “the inaction of the local government to spend the almost 50 million euros of the municipal remnant”, which “translates into the lack of investment and worse public services ”.
According to the councilors, the low budget execution of the investment chapter “joins the non-execution of the municipal remainder.” They point out that the government of José Domingo Regalado “has more than 50 million euros unused.” These figures, they have denounced, “have no justification of any kind”, because “while families are having a really bad time, the municipal government is not able to use the remaining treasury, so they stop making investments and creating jobs for the granadilleros ».
For Miranda and García «it is really worrying that after 2021, CC and PP have not yet fully implemented the necessary budgetary modification to be able to use this money. Money that could not be invested due to the lack of capacity of the government team to manage it, “they insisted. In this regard, they have indicated that “it is the only municipality in the South region that has not approved its remnant” and have stated that, “despite the mayor leaving demanding in 2020 that the State authorize the use of the remnant, after More than a year since its use was approved, it has not used a single euro.
For Jennifer Miranda and Adán García, «the most scandalous thing is that not a penny of the almost 50 million euros of the remainder that could have transformed the neighborhoods of Granadilla de Abona has been touched, creating new public infrastructures and providing more and better services ». The spokespersons affirm that “there are many needs in the municipality and that they require immediate action.”
