We finished the 2018 and started the 2019 as the year of municipal elections. Xàbia.com, following the line of giving opportunity for expression to all political parties with municipal representation, has spoken with Vicent Colomer, spokesman of Compromís and only councilor in the Javea Town Hall to take stock of what this legislature has been.
Colomer has stated that this legislature is based on an absolute socialist majority. "In his day, the mayor contacted me to take the sports department, it seemed like a good invitation but I also thought that with so many people why he needed me ", says the mayor.
Vicent has taken care of the sports area, "an important area", as stressed by the councilman, who added that at a sporting level "This legislature has been good but when suffering budget cuts and with the contracting law, many projects and actions will not be able to leave since the municipal machinery is slow.
administrative impediments have slowed down important projects such as the auditorium and the Triana Bridge. "
Colomer has referred to the pool project noting that "It has cost a lot to be able to unlock it, since the regional government did not let agreements with the consellería be made, now it has been unlocked and with almost all certainty during this month the agreement will be signed and throughout the year the construction of the indoor pool will be tendered ".
Compromís-PSOE Relationship
"Compromís relationship with the PSOE has been like a marriage, there have been small differences that have been resolved, but in important projects we have agreed", Colomer has reviewed and adds that "the fact that Compromís is conditioned many things with the socialist party. In this legislature they have laid the foundations in sports matters so that in the next one there is the pool and the pavilion of the Freginal".
In a matter of disagreement with the Socialists, the councilor of Compromís has made reference to the General Plan, "It is slow, the allegations are not yet answered. From Compromís, allegations were submitted to be destined for 80.000 m2 for a sports area, since we thought of a general plan for 25 years before and we still have not received an answer. Another football field is needed. , Running track…".
Lack of sports infrastructure
Vicent Colomer agrees that Xàbia is deficient in terms of sports infrastructure, "Not only of this legislature, I think that since the 1990 General Plan was born it was deficient and there was no thought of having spaces for infrastructure".
From the Department of Sports, Colomer points, "We have done the maintenance of the municipal facilities as well as possible and natural gas has been installed in all the sports centers. The grass of the soccer field would have to be changed but for tender reasons, the first company resigned and we hope that in this quarter can be changed. "
On the march of an important part of the Tennis Academy Ferrer to La Nucia, the mayor has said that "It's sad, but the Tennis Club is private and for the purposes of the PGOU it cannot be extended. La Nucia has the right land and instead Xàbia doesn't have them."
Candidacy for 2019 elections
Facing the elections next May, Vicent Colomer has been clear: "In case anyone had doubts, we will introduce ourselves. We will opt for elementary schools and now we are in a process of renewal with young people interested in the project. At the end of January the whole process will come out, I will opt for the primary ones and they will be the first of Commitment to the mayor of Xàbia ".
On a possible pact, Colomer has said that he has felt comfortable with the PSOE, "With the only party we can agree with, they have worked well and the Botanic Pact is a reference. The two parties contribute, join forces and have the will and desire to work."
Mr. Colomer, and with so much display of activity, you have not even been able to equip the Arenal playground in the two long years that we have been asking for it. Now it turns out that the maintenance of the facilities is up to you, because we ask you to tell us why you have not acted on Avda. De Paris so that people can trust you and your party in the next legislature, because if something so simple is not He has been given an answer ... but he still doesn't know where I'm talking about, he's from Arenal, next to Jávea Park ...
