The Mayor of Totana, Isabel Maria Sanchez, has been estimated at 1.2 million euros in annual savings that will mean to the city coffers that the Consistory totanero longer afford the maintenance costs incurred in the existing schools in the township.

With this measure, the City will save costs in the twelve schools and Primary Education and two municipal IES for the interior cleaning of buildings, electric bills, water, heating and concierge services, in some cases .
Sanchez Ruiz said this is a claim that the City of Totana been done in all political forums, the same way as other mayors from Murcia, since the beginning of term and is a must that you moved to the Minister of Education, the Director General of Local Government of the Autonomous Municipalities and the Federation of Murcia.
He also recalled that the Consistory has been delayed in paying bills on Iberdrola, for example, that caused the temporary cut in supply in some college course early as leverage.
He also said that this is a common problem with all municipalities in the region, regardless of political persuasion, and added that this "just" doing it because we petition the powers are concerned that "we are specific, but typically affect our budgets. "
Totana Mayor explained that "the municipalities has been long complaining of the high cost that carry the corresponding services to other government," but acknowledged that the crisis has exacerbated the difficulties of local authorities to continue costeándolos.
Totana City Council is already giving up since early this term to public services or resources that do not come one hundred percent funded by regional or central government and non-municipal competition.
