Green light to the proposal to lower the water bill for 2018 at 8.29 euros (29/12/2017)

The local government board, meeting Friday in extraordinary session, has approved the proposal of the mayor, Ana Belén Castejón, of the receipt of water for this year 2018, which will mean, as explained by the mayor, 8, 29 euros less in the receipt of an average family, formed by four members and with a consumption of 24 cubic meters, almost a 15 percent drop in the part of the receipt that concerns the water.

The mayor, who has appeared with the spokesman of the municipal group of citizens, Manuel Padín, who has thanked the support for this initiative, remembered the path taken since, at the end of 2016, the concessionaire of the service of supply of drinking water , Hidrogea, will present its proposal to lower the receipt by 2 euros for 2017, something that the technicians of the Sustainable Development Area considered unacceptable and left patent in a report that included the objections to said proposal.

Already last October, Castejón met with representatives of the concessionaire to which he communicated the dismissal of the proposal, demanding a new one, which they presented in November, and in which they accepted and assumed the objections that the municipal reports reflected.

We raised two possibilities, explained the mayor, a basic proposal, which involved a decrease of 4.5 euros in the receipt of an average family (9.88% in the water part and 4.33% in the total of the receipt);

and a variant proposal, with a reduction of 6.89 euros (a 12.38% reduction in the water part, and a 6.46% in the total receipt).

This proposal was also studied by the technicians and, finally, the director of the contract proposed an improvement in order to get the receipt to go down even more than the company's proposal, mainly the domestic tariff, which is what the citizens were waiting for. , and include a leak rate, and this is how, once the company accepts these conditions, the reduction of 8.29 euros is achieved.

We have approved the proposal with more reports from the City Council, assured Ana Belén Castejón, five in total, to guarantee that things can be done and done well, for the benefit of the citizens of Cartagena.

In this task, the mayor has highlighted the municipal group Ciudadanos, has been an ally.

On the other hand, Manuel Padín has been happy with this descent of the water and has remembered that his supports are not based on political colors but on the welfare of the citizenship, now it will be necessary to exert an iron control over Hidrogea.

The proposal has been approved in a government meeting with votes against MC Cartagena.
