The City Council approves a budget of 49 million euros by 2020

The Salou City Council that has approved the 2020 budget



Salou. Costa Dorada. 01 December 2019. The City of Salou has approved a budget of 49.3 million euros by 2020, which means almost 5 percent more than in 2019. This figure includes the budget of the Tourist Board (2.3 million euros) and the Consortium Recreatiu i Turístic (2.4 million euros). But especially the investment item, which with 6 million euros rises 3.4 percent more than this year. As Mayor Pere Granados said during the municipal plenary session, “the budget focuses on improving the quality of life of citizenship, social policies, education, and training towards young people, as well as improving municipal facilities and public roads".

Among the projects planned for this year, it is worth mentioning the performance in Carles Buïgas Street, improvements in Terrer Street, in the Municipal Market, in the Library, the Social Services building, the Peace Court and the investments arising from participatory budgets . These actions are part of a four-year plan recently presented by the local government.

The least pleasant part of the budget is taxes, which by 2020 rise in Salou. Above all, the IBI stands out with a 3.5 percent increase and the garbage rate, 10 percent, due to the increase in the cost of waste incineration. In total, the Salou City Council plans to raise 29.8 million euros between direct taxes, indirect taxes and public prices. A game that serves to maintain the good level of services and equipment that the municipality makes available to the public.

The Councilor for Finance and Economic Management, Yeray Moreno, thanked the contributions to the budget of the different municipal groups and said that it has been prepared with the premises of austerity, compliance with the rule of expenditure, transparency and value creation.

The budget has been approved with the 12 votes of the municipal government, formed by Sumem Salou and the PSC, while the opposition parties (ERC, Ciutadans and PP) have voted against.
