he Coslada Government Team It seems he is in no hurry to enforce the fine Cleaning hire An amount exceeding eight million euros. And in the opposition People’s Party He observed with astonishment the neglect … The city’s socialist mayor, Angel ViverosThe sanctions file has not been resolved for four months and has not shown any interest in doing so, at least not yet. The municipal spokesman for the People’s Party, Francisco Becerra, will ask the mayor today at the plenary session of the City Council about the reasons that prompted him to “pardon” this fine.
While the Coslada City Council did not move to collect these amounts, which exceed eight million euros, it sent notices to the neighbors to collect garbage fees from them, which would represent an income of six million euros to the municipal treasury, which sparked the opposition’s anger.
The road cleaning contract in Coslada was officially concluded on January 10, 2022 for the amount of €28,425,164.29 and for a period of five years, extendable annually for a maximum of five additional years. The local opposition denounced on successive occasions the “low quality of service” and asked in plenary sessions about the extent of compliance with the obligations stipulated in the contract. It was necessary for four technical reports, between 2024 and 2025, that revealed serious non-compliance since the beginning of the contract, for the Board of Directors to agree to open a penal file against the UTE LV Coslada team, in exchange for an initial amount of 9.4 million euros.
Following the winning company’s allegations, new technical and legal reports were issued proposing somewhat lower penalties, in the amount of 8 million euros. This happened last July. Four months have passed, and the Attorney General deplores the government body’s lack of interest in completing the file.
The reports reflect numerous cases of non-compliance, from minor to very serious errors, affecting grant criteria of a social or environmental nature, as reported by the PP, the characteristics of the offer linked to these criteria and the fulfillment of the obligations specified for the contract, as well as “defective implementation of the condition”.
The municipal opposition warns that while the leftist government team “is in no hurry and ignores technical and legal reports and non-compliance continues, the damage to the city and the population is increasing every day.” “It exempts the private street cleaning company from a fine of eight million, while punishing the neighbors with a garbage fee of six million,” they say.
