Overview
- Vigo’s council passed a 4% increase on IAE, IBI and selected public prices, with the socialist majority in favor and PP and BNG voting against.
- Vigo’s finance chief said the adjustment is meant to cover higher current spending while preserving existing tax benefits, a rationale the opposition rejected as revenue‑driven.
- Santander presented ordinances that keep most local taxes frozen, raising water and sewer bills 2.7% under a CPI‑linked contract and introducing the state‑mandated separate waste charge.
- Errenteria proposed a 2.4% general update tied to average IPC, keeping IBI, ICIO and IAE frozen and adding progressive measures in housing, mobility and local development.
- Errenteria also plans a 2.5% rise in water and sewer rates in line with the Añarbe authority and a new waste tariff for businesses using an IHOBE‑based correction so lower generators pay less.
