Municipal deputy Lídia Albornoz, from CDS-PP, called for greater fiscal ambition, financial rigor, and transparency in Santa Cruz's municipal management.
Albornoz voted against the municipal proposal to return only 1% of the IRS to residents, arguing that the law allows for up to 5% and that efforts should be made to alleviate the tax burden on families when legally possible.
Regarding a 13.2 million euro bank loan for public investment, the CDS-PP warned about the need for planning and not compromising future generations, demanding guarantees on execution timelines and costs.
The creation of the Youth Assembly received CDS-PP support, with the party advocating for it to be plural, free, and independent, ensuring proposals receive effective follow-up to engage young people in politics.
