Tirajana: Setback in social expenses due to the instability of San Mateo and the Commonwealth of Medianías

Yurena Vega Monday, March 18, 2024

The local corporations that are part of the Commonwealth of Medianías hope that the instability of the Vega de San Mateo tripartite does not take its toll on the management tasks of Tirajana and that from this month of March it should begin to be executed, in accordance with the precepts that are regulated in the General Budget Law to execute management tasks. The mayor of the municipality, Alexis Ramos (Unión Veguera-Nueva Canarias), has fired the local socialist leader, José Déniz. The decision leaves him in the minority (five of 13 councilors).

The south of Gran Canaria turned to the Commonwealth of Medianías to circumvent the controls of the Ministry of Finance with the spending ceiling. He has been able to avoid those controls but the litany and laziness in San Mateo has nothing to do with efficiency in public spending. To all this we must add the lack of personnel in the San Mateo City Council, making the administrative situation of the municipality unsustainable. Tenders and subsidies get stuck or lost due to not having an adequate number of employees for municipal management. A socialist councilor said this week that the mandate has gone well so far and that the town's priority festivals had been carried out correctly.

Asevan is from CC. The until now deputy mayor, Isabel Peñate, has assured that "we began the mandate in a minority and were capable from the first moment of carrying out the affairs of the municipality.
