In Archena the Property Tax (IBI) of rustic character will rise in 2009 to 0.5 percent and urban real estate tax will be at the 0.65 percent, three hundredths less than this year, as approved the last full City Council Archena.
For the council of finance, Pedro Jose Martinez, "this fall is to help archeneros so they can take the rise of the assessed value that will occur in 2009, and not to harm and the pockets of taxpayers."
The tax rates for rural and urban IBIS were approved with the votes of the Municipal People's Groups and IU and the non-Socialist Municipal Group.
