About Experience and Expertise 
In leaflets and put into circulation by the program LIST Tosetti has placed emphasis on guarantees of good administration that can be given by a mayoral candidate who has already acquired extensive administrative experience and undoubted and collected on their list the skills and competencies that are able to implement immediately the measures needed to boost the social and economic activities of the City.
Other candidates have said and felt able to boast the same experiences and skills.
Everyone can certainly express their beliefs, but it would be appropriate that these statements were also supported by facts and, where appropriate, the results achieved.
CONSTANCE Zavanone said that the life experiences that led you to observe different worlds and have enabled it to deal with complex situations of national and European level represent a sufficient qualification. He thinks that "the experience and the criteria of opinion and analysis of reality derived therefrom, may be useful to the political dynamic city. " He wants to "build a new political approach to the problems of the city by participating, in collaboration with others, a project which releases energy codes and behaviors associated with rigid sides."
Fine words. Good intentions. But the reality of Valencia is another.
There is a financial and economic crisis to be overcome, services public and social welfare to be safeguarded. But by what means whether the municipality has serious shortages of liquidity and resources?
has competed to list, for obvious propaganda purposes, and by the electoral lists that support the many projects in the last five years. They were all helpful and priority?. It was much needed resources to carry out round-consuming perhaps not necessary to create so-called "area 30" by any head, buy shareholdings producing losses, deplete capital city to make cash .... and so on?
The result is that the speakers of the City are bloodless.
Liquidity is non-existent and suppliers are waiting months to get paid. It was not even able to repay the cash advances obtained. In 2008 ended in zero cash and were not returned €. 2,241,000 obtained by the Treasurer, whereas in 2004 ended with a fund of € 1,063,000 cash and without financial deficits.
debt rose to over 40 million euro (also in 2008), when in 2004 was around 35 million. In this way it was made much more rigid budget management for Borrowing costs that are achieved (3.206 million euro in 2004, rising to € 4,549,000 in 2008).
Shareholders' equity decreased by € 28,771,000 in 2004 to 27,524,000 in 2008.
The equity interests amounted to over € 21 million and can not understand why it is not thought to release part of these resources. The law already allowed and in some cases now require this. It is not, in fact, necessary to hold almost all the capital to govern a society.
These figures could be worse in 2009, but has not yet reflected in official documents.
When it comes to experience and expertise, it refers to the ability to govern those who want to know how to deal with such situations to appropriate actions, making choices that can not be too brave improvised by far has not shown know how to take or who wants to enter into the dynamics of a mechanism that does not yet know well.
There is no time for practice. We need to act.
We think we can do it.
Lorenzo Barbin, candidate of the Civic List Tosetti.
