The PP of Tuineje has denounced the "economic and administrative chaos" of the Town Hall, governed by CC and PSOE, for closing 2025 with a surplus of almost 5.5 million euros while maintaining unpaid invoices and blocked services.
The Town Hall of Tuineje closed the 2025 financial year with a surplus of almost 5.5 million euros, but continues to carry a debt of 4.5 million with suppliers and paralyzed administrative services. This was denounced on Tuesday by the Popular Party, which attributes the situation to a "worrying management incapacity" of the local government formed by Coalición Canaria and PSOE.
The popular spokesperson, Esther Hernández, pointed out that for years the governing team justified the lack of results by blaming a supposed debt inherited from the PP. "Today, the municipal accounts themselves dismantle that narrative," she stated in a statement. "The Town Hall has sufficient resources to act, but still fails to convert that money into services, investments, or improvements for the residents."
Unexecuted surplus
According to data provided by the PP, of the 5.5 million surplus, a similar amount remained unexecuted in budgeted investments during 2025. The popular party considers it particularly serious that, while the Town Hall accumulates over 20 million euros in the banks, there are self-employed individuals and small businesses still waiting for payment for work already completed.
"The picture is clear: there is money in the accounts, but problems continue on the streets," the party has denounced. The debt with suppliers amounted to 4.5 million euros as of March 31, 2026, affecting numerous local businesses that provide services to the council.
Municipal collection paralyzed
In addition to the lack of payments, another problem has arisen: the municipal collection service has been functioning improperly for approximately six months. According to the PP, collection during the voluntary period and the ordinary management of fees and capital gains is not being carried out adequately. This generates uncertainty among residents, who do not know when they will be able to regularize their tax obligations.
For the popular party, the main problem of the Town Hall is no longer budgetary, but rather a capacity for management. They believe that CC and PSOE have shifted the public debate to savings figures while unresolved files, pending payments, and non-functioning services continue to accumulate.
Therefore, the PP demands that the governing group reactivate the administrative machinery, expedite payments to suppliers, and ensure the normal functioning of municipal services. "It cannot be that there is money in the banks and residents still do not see improvements in infrastructure, maintenance, and basic services," Hernández concluded.
So far, the governing team has not commented on the accusations. Meanwhile, the residents of Tuineje continue to await the Town Hall's resolution of the everyday problems affecting their daily lives: from the collection of invoices from small business owners to the management of their taxes.
