A power cut as a result of an unpaid bill has paralysed the activity of Jerez City Hall. The collapse of the computer system meant that all activity had to be done by hand.
A council meeting, chaired by the Socialist Mayor, Pilar Sánchez, has to be suspended given the impossibility to approve and transmit the agreements and documents through the computer system.
The City Hall has called for ‘more understanding’ from the Endesa power company which is owed 3.1 million € by the ayuntamiento.
Public services in the city are now reported to be under threat because the City Hall has failed to meet other payments. Bus drivers are on strike today in protest at not being paid for three months, and the 2,500 municipal workers have only just been paid for March.
