Councilman José Rafael Rocamora has considered these data as further evidence of the immorality in the management applied by the Government of Cehegín "which uses the municipal revenue in trying to" distract "the public, rather than investing in its future .
In this sense, Rocamora said the submission of an application for extraordinary plenary session at City Hall to try to discuss, again, the city cut the salaries in the current crisis, the council released only reached more than € 150,000-a which he described as "unsustainable and unpresentable."
"With these data in hand - José Rafael Rocamora says, is easy to understand why municipal taxes have increased in recent years."

"This spending excessive and impossible to justify in times of crisis has forced up to 3 times to move motions proposing the reduction of municipal salaries of the Mayor and all City Councillors," adds Rocamora, "something the group is not popular still allowed to discuss the full City Council. "
"Therefore," this morning confirmed the PSOE has requested the convening of an extraordinary plenary session to discuss these motions before the end of the current legislature. "
The PSOE is expected that the money saved by reduced salaries of all city it covers a series of grants to those most affected by the crisis, such as retirees, disabled, self-employed or farmers Cehegín, for whom the socialist group claims for months a reduction in various municipal taxes that directly affect them, taxes that have doubled since the arrival of the popular mayor of José Soria.
