The municipal group Hacemos Córdoba has demanded from the mayor, José María Bellido, the immediate purchase of new trucks for the municipal company Sadeco and has criticized the lack of investment and personnel affecting the company.

The left-wing coalition has urged the mayor to end the undercapitalization of Sadeco, arguing that the municipal company has suffered years of insufficient investment in vehicles, machinery, and personnel. They demand the acquisition of new trucks and the fulfillment of the 200 promised positions.
Hacemos calls for the immediate purchase of trucks to guarantee waste collection services. They warn that new vehicles must be sustainable, favoring electric or hybrid models over diesel. While welcoming 'renting' trucks, they consider it not a structural solution and believe the true answer lies in direct investment and purchase.
The coalition criticizes that only seven out of the 18 trucks that Sadeco should have operational are providing night services, labeling the situation an "authentic absurdity" and attributing it to the "lack of management and commitment to the municipal company" by the mayor and his government team.
They recall that Sadeco was historically a benchmark company nationally and internationally, but currently considers it to be in a "critical situation" due to the "inoperability and lack of planning by the PP". They also criticize the "instability in the company's management", noting that in the last seven years, the company has had five managers and three presidents, demonstrating that it is "not a priority for the mayor".
They denounce that the municipal government has not purchased "a single truck" in years, causing a constant loss of resources and assets. They point out that this results in "many residents finding uncollected garbage in the mornings", and that citizens and workers "do not deserve a mayor who does not believe in public services".
Furthermore, Hacemos demands that the mayor fulfill the electoral promise to promote the 200 positions to reinforce the staff, arguing that without sufficient personnel and investment, it is impossible to guarantee quality service. They fear that the PP's policies are damaging the company's image and respond to a clear strategy of weakening public services that could lead to privatization.
The coalition warns that "we will not allow them to deteriorate Sadeco to the point of justifying its privatization" and expresses its support for the staff, whom they define as "the true engine that continues to sustain a model service thanks to the daily effort of its workers". They demand a "real commitment" to restore Sadeco to its former national and international benchmark status through increased public investment, fleet renewal, and staff reinforcement.
