The money is already in the pockets of creditors, 13 days before the scheduled deadline for payments
“We removed a large cap,” says the mayor, and announced it will continue to pay other debts
The payment started on July 27 and ended on August 13
The 30 million of municipal debt are already in the pockets of creditors. The money was paid into their accounts and thus the payments are settled, although there are still another 16 million euros more for subscribers, who have not entered into this particular reorganization that has been settled 13 days before the deadline obliged to do so, the August 26. The 30 million euros have been paid at least three weeks, from July 27 until Thursday, August 13.
The mayor, Carmen Heras, joined to his office yesterday after spending fifteen days of vacation and was pleased to have completed successfully and quickly this special payment plan from the beginning was identified as extremely complicated by the large number of invoices had to pay to about 250 creditors. At the beginning of the payment the City Council was forced to warn that the invoices are not documented can not be paid. And so, so the mayor yesterday to ease the potential creditors who have run out of money for a problem of this type. “If someone has not been charged, not to worry that the City will address the situation.
In any case, it should be noted that the ‘package’ of debts worth 30 million euros have not come all creditors that the City has as many works, services or purchases have been concluded more recently, from 31 August 2008 deadline for the bills have been paid 30 million. Has been that date back up claims that date back to former corporations, the year 2005 and some are 2000, 2001 and 2002.
In this sense, the mayor announced yesterday the launch of a second phase of reorganization of debts after the first big payment of EUR 30 million credit agreement with six achieved with four banks.
“We removed a large cap,” he says with satisfaction and said that other debts are not paid through credit resources but with the current City Hall. For the moment, can not quantify how much money is due, an amount difficult to determine by the Department of Economics, but repeatedly spoke of 16 million euros under budgets that should be added to the 30 million operations pending, ie off-budget expenditures.
For now only the mayor dares to ensure that they will still pay what is due, the bills from the August 31, 2008 to present. It also ensures that no recourse to any other claim.
Speed
This payment included the speed with which it has been completed, although the problems were initially detected do not think that would be carried out successfully.
Began to make payments on July 27 and had a month’s time bound, according to state regulations in which this operation has been based on sanitation. The central government has authorized municipalities to borrow for the payment to your creditors to alleviate the crisis situation of enterprises and self-employed and required to be resolved in a month, between July 26 and August 26. The City Council approved the operation of Caceres in full last July 16 and in the days following the signing of the contracts signed with six credits four banks: BBVA ((two credits of five million euros each), Banco Santander (Two other credits for the same amount), Caja Madrid (one of five million) and Caja Extremadura (one of five million).
As from July 27 began to get the money to bank accounts of creditors and in less than three weeks has been all settled, particularly on Thursday, August 13 days, according to the mayor. Have therefore been 13 days before the deadline.
“We are very happy because we have fulfilled what they promised,” said Heras, who looks to the creditors are also happy for having charged. Some of them, contacted by this newspaper, which formed in effect your money has arrived, although in some cases are more outstanding amounts, for works made after August 31, 2008.
“Chapter closed,” she says and adds that the claim “we have spent well.” In this sense we must qualify that the 30 million debt with creditors becomes 30 million debt with the banks, payable in six years from the fee to be charged to the company (to be mixed) to ensure the water service. But that’s another chapter of this plan. Is not closed.
