The City of Redován has decided to start a process of participation aimed at local citizenship can propose projects to be included in the municipal budget next year. The preparation of the participatory budget was approved in the last municipal plenary session and today has been presented by the councilman of finance and citizen participation, Adrián Ballester, who has been accompanied by the mayor, Emilio Fernández. The initiative will allocate a minimum of 30,000 euros of the municipal budget to the proposals made and voted by the people who are registered in the municipality.
Ballester recalled that municipal budgets are “one of the most important tools available to a local government, where the expenditure and income policies are concentrated with the objective of benefiting citizens through the different areas of action politics”. The mayor explained that although “in the case of Redován the contact of the municipal government with the citizens is continuous and constant as well as the meetings of the councilors of the different departments with representatives of social, cultural, sports, party and Religious, both to know their needs and to distribute the various subsidies, we are willing to hold a consultation period on the municipal budgets of the next year using the digital tools we have available.
The calendar of participatory budgets has four phases, a first one of collection of proposals and supports, that will extend from August 7 to September 22 and in which the people registered in Redován will be able to propose and to support the proposals that they consider opportune. At this stage, citizens will be able to submit all the proposals they want, write comments on the published ones and vote on them, while the platform administrator can accept (publish) or reject those that arrive.
The mayor, Emilio Fernández (i) and the mayor of Hacienda, Adrián Ballester (d) during the press conference.
Citizens will be able to register in the first phase, either through the technological platform or by going to the city hall during opening hours, the initiative they propose for the budget for 2018, as well as the estimated cost to that proposal, which in no case May exceed 30,000 euros. Also, during this period, that is to say from Monday August 7 to September 22, registered users on the web will be able to pre-vote, support and comment on the proposal, without this pre-vote being binding on the final vote that Is performed in the third phase.
The second phase will be the evaluation of the proposals, and will run from September 23 to October 15. In it, the City Hall staff will check if the proposed is technically and economically feasible, and a final presentation will be made. The technicians will estimate the cost, “something that will be shown in phase 3 so that the citizen knows how much it would cost to execute it and if it matches his proposal, thus facilitating the information so that he can vote in a responsible manner,” said the councilman.
In phase 3 (from October 16 to 31), the final vote will be taken on proposals that are technically and legally feasible. “Here you can no longer create proposals or add comments, only vote those that have been viable,” explained Ballester. During this period citizens will be able to vote the proposals, both on the web and going in person to the City Council to physically vote the initiative, to avoid the technological gap and that all citizens have the same equality of opportunity when casting their vote and participate In this process of collective participation.
According to the calendar marked by the City of Radovan, the process is expected to culminate with the fourth phase on November 3 when the proposals are published by order of voting. From there, the process of approval of the municipal budget will continue its usual course until the plenary session, which as the highest municipal representative body should be in charge of giving final approval to the document.
Adrián Ballester added that, if the budget availability allows, the 30,000 euros originally planned for the participatory process “could be increased, taking into account the different and numerous commitments of expenditure that this City has already assumed,” he added.
How to participate
Adrián Ballester has announced the portal through which citizens, as of today, can take part in the preparation of the budget. It can be accessed through the address: https://presupuesto.redovan.es/, in which in addition to making and voting proposals you can be aware of how this participatory procedure is developed that is first implemented in the locality Redondo. “It is about empowering citizens to become an active part of municipal political action and that their proposals can have a benefit for the whole of the citizenry,” concluded Ballester.

This installation will be held in Plaza Comunidad Valenciana, where it was inaugurated a few months ago the Road Safety Park. “Although at first we had planned to put it in the Francisco Ferrer Park next to the calisthenics, the existing space left no room for future enlargements of any of the facilities,” said Sports Councilor, Ramón López, which has led to Opt for the Plaza Comunidad Valenciana, an enclave that is also central.
The ‘Skate park’ will thus join the Road Safety Park and the football ground court of the square, making this space of the town in a multipurpose place that can be enjoyed by many neighbors and also has perimeter fencing, which Endows more security.

Redován City Council wants to end the problems that arise daily in the potable water and sewerage network, and for that reason has initiated a procedure aimed at tendering a service now provided from the same Consistory, in precarious and without possibilities only of To realize the improvements that the neighbors of the locality demand. The mayor, Emilio Fernández, has appeared today along with a good part of his government, to explain how he wants to develop a process that wants to be “as transparent as the water that should come out of our faucets” and that also involves the investment Necessary to renew networks at all points where necessary.
Redován has 27.5 kilometers of sewage and 81.5 of potable water network “of which 3 are still of fiber cement,” said Fernández, who has pointed out that equally unbearable are the data that result from the studies carried out on The consumption of water in the locality. H indicated that only 52% of the water supplied by the Commonwealth of Taibilla Channels is used, while the remaining 48% is lost “in breaks, leaks and irregular shots”, something that is to be solved “because it is A water that we pay all the people of Rio Grande do Sul and we lose. ” Extrapolating these percentages to figures means that the annual economic losses are 247,444 euros, “so the solution must be put in place immediately”, said the mayor.
From the government team began to work in search of the solution in the past mandate, when it was commissioned to the public company dependent on the Diputación Proaguas Costa Blanca to carry out a planimetry of the entire local network. The needs studies concluded that Redován would require a large investment to provide the service in a standardized way. Last February, PW was awarded the “best consultancy in our country on water”, Fernández said, technical assistance to prepare the specifications and annexes of the subsequent valuation of offers in relation To the concession, and today the first commission has been held with the other municipal political groups where the technician in charge of the report has given all the details to the local political representatives.

The future, without tariff increases
Regarding the tender, the team of Redondo government has set several goals, such as the fact that it is the City Council itself that has control over the concession or that the execution period of the improvements required is in accordance with the needs of the network . “We want investments, as soon as possible, to improve the network, and especially not to raise rates, and we can guarantee that they will not.”

Throughout the duration of the contract, at least 2.5% of the variable fee will be invested to undertake service improvements. These conditions can be improved by companies.
Similarly, each year there must be an audit that will be commissioned by the Consistory but will be paid by the concessionaire. Searches for network leaks, sewer cleanings and rainwater networks will be carried out annually, among other things detailed by the Mayor of Rio Grande do Sul.
From the City Hall are expected to apply for aid to other administrations such as the County Council, within the collaboration established by law to provide public water service in municipalities with less than 20,000 inhabitants. “We consider that in this way we will achieve that the effectiveness of the network is close to normal, that we avoid the continuous breaks and above all, the water cuts that occur constantly,” said Emilio Fernández. “We want Redován to have a more modern and efficient service, that our neighbors and neighbors benefit from it and that they do not have to suffer the problems of an obsolete network for which now they must pay every year almost 250,000 euros,” he concluded.
