The Sagunto City Council plenary session held a debate on the Generalitat budgets, where different political groups presented their positions on the investments planned for the town.

During the session, amendments to the regional accounts were presented, a fact that generated an intense exchange of reproaches among municipal representatives. While some groups questioned the management and the lack of responses to local needs, others defended the Consell's actions and criticized the submission of proposals past the deadline.
Opposition representatives described the budget allocations as insufficient, pointing to historical shortcomings in infrastructure such as rail transport. Meanwhile, groups supporting the regional government argued that current requests were not addressed in previous terms, labeling the debate as propagandistic.
The debate also focused on the needs arising from industrial activity at Parc Sagunt II. Councilors insisted on the importance of the Generalitat providing an adequate response to the challenges the city faces to maintain the quality of life for its residents.
