TORREMOLINOS residents are in for a shock when they get their water and rubbish collection bills for the first three months of 2011. The town hall has approved a motion to increase taxes for both services which come on one bill. However, the amount owed will vary depending on how much water each household consumes and there will be discounts for people who have been registered in the town for more than two years.
In any case, the bills will be more than 50 per cent higher than this year.
The mayor, Pedro Fernandez Montes, blames the Consumer Prices Index, the extra cost of transporting rubbish to Casares once the municipal tip is closed, and the Andalucian water law which has put up the price of water to pay for purification plants and improving infrastructures.
However, the socialist spokesman, Juan Ortuño, says these are just excuses to bring more money into municipal coffers at the expense of local residents
