For Ivars "at this time residents need confidence in a strong local government and we will try to give it to them by means of management by mutual respect."
The Mayor stated that "he will work with transparency to address the economic difficulties of the Town Hall and at the same time solutions to the problem of employment of the residents of Els Poblets, by means of an agreement that puts the general interest of the people above political ideals".
