A while now, the budgets of the City of Madrid are presented each year with a slogan that seems rather a notice to mariners. In 2011, Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón (PP) perched on a poster that, among the major figures of the accounts, read: With clear direction. A few months later, fulfilled his desire to march to La Moncloa as minister. Today, her replacement since December at City Hall, Ana Botella (PP), has presented its first budget, marked by the strictest austerity and a phrase as a heading: Ensuring future. Just when management is challenged by the tragedy of Madrid Arena, the councilor has detailed accounts which include tax increases and fees, and spending cuts in services also affects 9.6%, despite promising otherwise , social services and policies against unemployment.
>> Closely monitored by the Government. Although not intervened, the Madrid City Council, like all municipalities, is guarded by and submitted to the Ministry of Finance. In fact, the budget presented today are but a continuation of the adjustment plan validated by the central government in the spring. The main concern of both is that expenditures do not exceed revenues. Both figures are consistent, then: 4.301 million euros. There is a contingency fund of 24.6 million, testimonial and without much practical use, since all setbacks (legal or accounting) individually suffered this year exceeded this amount.
The primary firewall against the deficit is the change to a cash basis, which allows the City Council as revenue target only those who is certain to get. That is, as exemplified by the delegate of Finance, Concepción Dancausa, could not balance the books, as it did in previous years Gallardón, the forecast for the shares of Canal de Isabel II or property. Try to place buildings, yes, but that was auctioned seen seven and only managed to award one at a price well below expectations, has no such income, which, if they come, will also serve to correct deviations.
Opposition criticizes cutting services to pay to the bank
The Socialist Party, led by Jaime Lissavetzky, has criticized the budget for 2013 involve "more taxes and fewer services, a reduction in the municipal staff, a historic cut in employment policies and even more money to pay the debt in which We sank the recent municipal management. " According to Councilwoman Noelia Martinez, the 3.2% cut in the allocation to the districts is "another blow to the ailing situation already living neighborhoods", "evidencing the defending city model Ana Botella. Reforms the Palacio de Cibeles at a cost of over 400 million euros and is neglected as close to the city, their neighborhood. "
The local leader of United Left, Angel Perez, "no less eloquent than the single growing spending item is used to pay the interest to financial institutions while the interests of the majority of the locals remain in the background in order to fulfill a financial deficit at the expense of aggravating the social deficit ". "The City Council's emphasis on maintaining all the services that are considered basic, from their point of view, not consistent then with generalized situations of people applying for home help and not granted, and is just one example "he adds.
>> Gallardón, a burden of 6,000 million. The City has three or four adjustment plans in the past year. The budgets presented today are one more. No longer trying to avoid or deny the cuts: now the goal is to "maintain" municipal services, ie avoid lack of money leads to cancel benefits to locals. The ultimate source of this instability is the huge debt with banks that left Gallardón to realize its investment mandate (the burial of the M-30 under the Madrid River Park, the Palacio de Cibeles, the Magic Box, etc.) . And the bills left unpaid providers, 1,017 million euros for the central government in the spring forced to pay in one go, thus further fatten financial debt.
The City Council must repay 730 million euros of debt this year, up 11%, and 5,910 million will remain outstanding, in 2012 paid 726 more. It has outstanding bills until beyond 2022, but the worst years are this and next. Gallardón tried to the end that the government allow refinance that debt, so that the annual payments were lower. He did not succeed, and even insisted bottle. Your goal is to pay as soon as possible so that "those who come after us" have leeway. That phrase does not mean they want to present to the elections of 2015, is that although the win and rule four years, in 2019 the City still lack of money and would undergo a strong adjustment plan. At least until 2022, ie almost one more term, will take to pay off debt inherited from Gallardón, now Minister of Justice.
Regarding the pending bills, despite having to pay more than 1000 million, the City is still not up. Before paying with 11 months late, now, with six. Intended to be three to the end of 2013, and only one in 2014, and finally adjusting to what the law stipulates. In total, and again drag a debt of 473 million euros to suppliers, although catch up on your payments is precisely the reason given to explain the reduction of services will suffer next year from Madrid.
>> Objective: survival. "The budget will allow us to maintain essential services that make the city work." And some more. The accounts, branded as "realistic" by its director, provide a cost of 4.301 million, 7.6% less than in 2012, a percentage that rises to 9.2% when taking into account only the goods and services for Madrid. These comparisons are made on the initial budget for 2012, not counting all the subsequent adjustment plans. If one were to compare total spending after those cuts, still accounts for 2013 represent a 3.9% additional snip. Since 2008, ie in the last six years, the City has reduced by 29%, almost a third of their operating costs.
>> More cuts in staff costs. This item falls by 5%, and a cumulative reduction of 11.5% in the last six years. Bottle ensures no layoffs at City Hall, but makes employment in public enterprises to the adjustment plan is pending approval since September, and could lead some of them to disappear or merge. Reducing spending is explained well by the amortization of 322 jobs left vacant by retirements or transfers and have not been supplied.
Since 2009 and 2164 positions are amortized over a template 29,500 public employees. Of these, about 4,000 are working staff, and could be fired in the coming months with a compensation of 20 working days per year and a maximum of 12 months. The rest has been a double pay cut, by the central government, which has eliminated the Christmas bonus, and the City Council, which reduced spring overtime pay and benefits. This coupled with the increase in working hours from 35 to 37.5 hours and loss of days off, triggered a wave of labor protests dubbed 'black tide'.
Less >> services plus interest payments. Spending on goods and services for locals is reduced by 10.3%, and has declined nearly a quarter since 2008. The Council stresses that are "guaranteed" and that the savings comes from administrative measures and not affect citizens. However, 182 million disappear at a stroke only in the services provided directly by the City Council. To this figure we must add 19 million more to stop receiving municipal companies (down 8%) for policies such as the fight against unemployment. Or 21% reduction in capital transfers, from 48 to 39 million, to have paralyzed the construction of social housing in the city.
Investments in infrastructure (modernization of markets, pedestrianization of streets, museums and theaters, bike paths, etc.) falls further, by 44.6% to 124 million. In 2008 there were more than 800 million, and last year, Gallardón said the 266 million budgeted for 2012 were the bare minimum so that the city would not fall apart. However, in addition to paralyze all the works that are "essential" next year will be almost half the money to repair potholes, changing light bulbs and generally avoid that, the city is falling apart.
What does grow is the money going to pay interest on the bills left unpaid Gallardón, 6.2% to exceed 300 million euros, ie a fifth of what is spent on goods and services the locals. That's not counting the aforementioned 732 million to be paid during the year for banks as repayment of outstanding debt.
Less >> own income, greater dependence on the state. Estimated revenues amounted to EUR 4.301 million, down 8% from last year. Nearly half come from local taxes (1.969 million, 9.6% more than in 2012), especially by the Property Tax (increasing by 5.4% to 1.179 million) and the tax on the increase the land value, commonly known as capital gains tax (increased by 50% to 416 million). Both increases are due to central government policy changes, although in the case of IBI is also explained by the updating of the cadastral value of housing Gallardón approved last year.
Revenue from fees fell 23%, from 837 to 641 million euros, because these receipts can only cover the price of the service (eg, garbage collection), and the efforts of the City Council reduce these costs, even at the expense of quality, are reflected in the invoices received by the citizen.
Add yet the money transferred by the State to the City, in part because it has raised more in taxes nationwide, but especially because it has improved municipal finance. So, this year received 1.408 billion, up almost 4% more than the previous. Financial transactions (in this section recorded the sale of the shares of the Canal, for example) are reduced by 86%, from 245 to 33 million euros. And expected revenue from sale of buildings fall by 44%, from 145 to 81 million euros. Is outstanding, especially the sale of the former headquarters of Urbanism in Guatemala Street, and the building APOT, Field of Nations, which will be held under lease by planning officials.
Rise >> almost all taxes and fees. The government approved a rise in the spring, in principle exceptional, from 4% in 2012 and another 4% in 2013 to the IBI, the main instrument collector municipalities. Then there is the update of the assessed value of homes in the capital, approved by Gallardón and Madrid suffer in the form of higher receipt the next 10 years. In total, the IBI is more expensive in 2013 by 7% on average. The City has risen from 60 to 100 euros bonuses for families with lower incomes.
Rise, also thanks to a decision by the central government, the capital gains tax, and will increase by 2% the other tributes, which had promised Gallardón keep frozen until the economy recover. Regarding rates, low waste, thanks to the reduction of the service cost to the City; fords low rate, not by choice but by a Municipal Court ruling, and climb the rest. This is compounded by the sharp rise of services such as sports centers, swimming pools, cultural workshops, music and dance schools, etcetera.
