MURCIA NOW regrets that fiscal ordinances are proposed by the PP election campaign, and that the tax cut advertising is unsupportive, to be linear rather than progressive.
The municipal formation considers that if the income of the municipality suffered a significant decline, as the PP proposes, investment and social policies, which are items of expenditure of the City Council, not being committed in advance, can fluctuate would suffer.
So, Councilman Luis Bermejo Murcia Now remember that much of the cost of the Consistory are "personal, debt interest and suppliers already contracted, so the scope for cutting costs is basically limited to investments and social benefits."
The mayor says that "there are groups who still need support, and that support must necessarily come from income, so it is important that they do not suffer a big drop."
Bermejo said that for these reasons, "Now Murcia is not in favor of a general tax cut, which is clearly electioneering, but its progressiveness of a redistribution of taxes levied least those who have less income and guarantee the City. "
Likewise, Murcia now considers lowering the IBI should not be 2%, but progressive, applying bonuses according to the rateable value of the property, and goodwill-the tax on the increase in the value of terrenos- should eliminate gradually, over a period of four years.
Finally, regarding the suppression of opening license, Murcia is now in favor of this measure "as long as the payment hold for large or / and companies that have a negative effect on the environment, for instance polluting".
