The Estepona Town Council has approved projects amounting to € 10,695,347, for funding from the State Investment Fund aimed at stimulating the local economy and employment. According to the mayor, David Valadez, the projects were selected as those which would provide the greatest number of jobs at local level as well as long-awaited improvements to the infrastructure and environment. Another consideration, according to Eduardo Alarcón, councillor for infrastructure, was that the projects were of a size which could be handled by local small and medium sized businesses in the municipality, thus keeping the revenue in the town.
