Elected mayors not yet come in functions, and they already have over a series of financial problems, acknowledged the governor Emilio Gonzalez Marquez.

He explained that he has met with elected mayors and leaders of different political parties, and informed them that only 40 (32%) of the 125 municipalities in the state have the resources on hand to pay the bonuses, the rest of the municipalities will difficulties in the implementation of this provision to municipal workers.

"The elected mayors have a big problem called aguinaldo, entering in October, but in two months are required to comply. There should be a program of support, but not everything thoroughly lost, there must be an effort by the municipality. "

The president called on elected mayors to reduce current spending and streamline the collection of municipal resources. He regretted that the municipal authorities have not reached a level of transparency, to such an extent that no one knows exactly how high the liabilities of the municipalities.

For González Márquez, the priority of the government is thinking about solutions for municipalities to tackle these debts before supporting the legislative and judicial powers, who have sought a bailout for the payment of debts to suppliers, tax and payroll.
