Ms. Councillor of Commerce has sent a personal letter to several local merchants in which they "invited" to join a "Shopping Night", that if, upon payment of 15 € to "help" the Department to promote the act.
UPyD Caravaca, considered a real eyesore in the letter that Ms. recent days Councillor of Commerce, Consumer Affairs and Crafts City Council is sending Caravaca Caravaca various merchants.
According to it, is to do on Friday December 14, coinciding with the start of the Christmas season (on the other hand believe that it is the best time for it), an "event" very fashionable in recent times , what is called Shopping Night, ie left open premises for a few hours at night, offering guests, music, drinks and snacks, in order to attract sales and create ambiance around trade.
Until there all right, and even applaud such initiatives already proposed by a motion and paradoxes of life was rejected precisely because the government team of PP, but carefully reading the letter one begins to realize the "embolao "in which Ms. Councillor puts the merchant, we order: First invites the merchant in an" open and easy "to adhere to this idea Shopping Night, and suggests a number of conditions such as having open from 20.30 to 23.30 in the evening, apply a 20% discount at participating merchants and acclimate the music business, and something to offer to customers (drinks, snacks, Christmas cakes, or pastries) .
As you can see all this at the expense of the merchant's pocket.
For the next breath offer participants a range of services that his own Department made available to the commercial event, such as:
Media at local, district and regional
Advertisements on radio and local television.
Social Networks (Facebook and Twitter).
Static advertising (posters).
Design flyers and stickers (cast in the Medieval Market).
And now comes the most surprising of the letter, the requirement by the Councillor to pay a "fee" of € 15, to take over as her expenses, the phrase does not have any waste is this:
"To participate in this initiative you must register with the Office of Local Development (Tourist Office, C / Nuns), paying a fee of 15 €. Application deadline November 30.'s Share will go to work with the Department Trade with promotion costs and organization of the event. "
When a council wants to organize an "event" like this, in addition to all shops Caravaca (absolutely all), must provide at least the act of proper organization and course of the promotion thereof, is at least a municipality like ours should do to support local businesses suffered and mistreated, we believe from UPyD in bad taste and out of context, the requirement by the Department to pay € 15 (which they were revolutionary tax), and also say that they are to spend itself in the Promotion Department and Organization.
Bad, very bad things must be in the Department of Commerce, to ask an industry as abandoned to their fate in Caravaca, such as this, you get paid to put on the poster or wedges: "HE HOSTS. E CARAVACA - Department of Commerce, Consumer Affairs and Crafts. "
Honestly was the last thing to expect from a council "dead", that still does not provide ideas and giving back to the real issues caravaqueño trade.
Finally "congratulate" will not be all bad, Mrs. Councillor for the use in the same letter of a QR code, to show that it is a shopping night at UPyD likes their initiatives while not supported Team of the People's Government used and disclosed as has been the case.
