The budget document for 2020 details all the revenue items necessary to finance the aforementioned expenses and investments.
In relation to direct taxes (IBI, vehicles, Tax on Economic Activities and Capital Gains), their collection rises by 19.98%.
A slight decrease of 0.23% is expected in the Vehicle Tax (IVTM).
The value of the Economic Activities Tax (IAE), which is taxed by companies that invoice more than 1 million euros, is increased by 21.83%.
The Capital Gains Tax (IIVTNU) only estimates the collection of urban land from which a real increase in its value has been obtained after the sale, as required by the Constitutional Court ruling of March 2017, so, after the return of five million euros to the banks in the last legislature, now only a slight decrease is expected compared to 2019.
The total budgetary increase of direct taxes (IBI, IVTM, PLUSVALIAS and IAE) is 16.63%, equivalent to 1,100,000 euros of higher expected collection.
The main indirect tax, the ICIO (Tax on Constructions, Installations and Works), falls for an amount of 56,156.11 euros, 5.11%, which adds to the decrease already made in 2019 with respect to 2018 for an amount of 269,999, 22 euros
However, due to the effect of the tax rate update, it is expected to raise about 140,000 euros more than last year.
The councilor recalled that this tax "has enabled tax bonuses of up to 60% for job creation and, especially for people at risk of social exclusion."
Regarding rates, public prices and other income, it has been budgeted starting from the previous year and taking into account the trend of past years.
Since 2019, both income and expenses related to water supply are no longer considered, as a result of the plenary agreement of October 30, 2018, whereby the Mancomunidad de Canales del Taibilla is the one who invoices directly to the service concession company, in the meantime the service is not remunicipalised with the constitution of the municipal public water company.
These budgets also include the full agreement of November 2019, in which a reduction of 20% in the quarterly industrial water rate was approved for about 600 subscribers, including small shops, coffee shops, bars, bakeries, livestock farms, restaurants , industries, etc.
And that will be effective throughout this year 2020.
In relation to the rates for the provision of basic public services, the most relevant data in the budget is the income increase of 8.54% in the collection of garbage, due to the increase in the number of receipts, “although these barely cover two thirds of the total cost of this service, â€said García.
Also notable is the decrease in the collection of nursery schools that, as a result of low birth rates, have been budgeted this year by 27.61% less.
Other revenues, such as traffic fines and penalties for non-compliance with municipal ordinances, have had a higher collection last year, which is reflected in these budgets with a 17% increase.
Delay interests also increase your budget by 21%.
García has indicated that "the reduction in the 30% rate of garbage will continue to be applied to all persons over 65 years of age and those under that age living alone with scarce economic resources."
This bonus will be added to others such as the IBI to large families and by direct debit of receipts, the exemption of the “stamp†to vehicles of people with disabilities, to those with more than 25 years, as well as agricultural and sanitary, among others.
Also the basic ICIO for stable job creation (40%) and promotion of the hiring of people at risk of social exclusion (60%).
Or bonuses to companies for the use of renewable energy.
In the section of current transfers, the revenues of the General State Administration that the City Council receives every year as a participation in its taxes are included.
Here, the revenue forecast is increased by about 350,000 euros (9.69%), with almost 20% of the total revenue budget.
The councilor of the Treasury has once again claimed the need for a local financing law in the face of “the need that we have the City Councils for the CARM to assume the improper powers that we are providing and financing with the municipal budget in social and educational policies, fundamentally, with Annual net expense of approximately 1.5 million euros. â€
The budget includes as patrimonial income the interests of liquid deposits, as well as the income that is expected to be received for rent of municipal goods, concessions and uses and the canon of the concession company of the water service, relative to the year 2019, which provides for a result in favor of the City Council of more than 500,000 euros.
Finally, on capital transfers, it contemplates the forecast of income relative to the subsidy for the reform of the Castle of the Ministry of Development.
The project has been modified and the contribution of the City Council will be 195,000 euros this second year and 474,000 euros from the Ministry.
