Balearics

The Balearics have decided to externalizar the management of their ports. The reason is economic, which means level that it is wanted to collect more than is collected. Then, in Ciutadella they have had an idea that can be interesting and one of the few tables of salvation to which it is possible to be tried to take hold the user of the ports susceptible to be auctioned and is the municipalizacin of the same. One is a model widely spread in France and that counts on enough positive aspects to consider. The first that is worth pain to mention is that it is the own town (its city council) the one that decides the port model that wants to have and that way the management more is fit to the interests of the inhabitants of the municipality instead of to respond to the policy and the resources of an autonomic or national administration. On the other hand, we have the city council decides the tariffs that are due to apply based on the paper that the port plays in the economy and the society of the municipality, reason why can bet by more social tariffs if it interests to him to foment nautical activity and the access to the sea of a greater number of citizens either another type of restrictive pricing the more. But in any case it is possible to be assured that the tariffs will be lower than those of that it has had to bid up in a contest and must pay a crazy canon besides obtaining his own benefit. And since we spoke of benefit, it seems quite logical that, to take place this one, it results in favor of the community and of the municipal coffers instead of to go to stop to the accounts of tal o cual society or organization without profit spirit.
