99, OF DECEMBER 31, 2013, AND ITS ACTIVITY CLASSIFIER
ECONOMIC INDUSTRY, COMMERCE, SERVICES OR SIMILAR NATURE OF THE
CAMPO ELÍAS MUNICIPALITY OF THE STATE OF MÉRIDA.
STATEMENT OF MOTIVES
The Municipal Council of the Campo Elías Municipality of the State of Mérida, as a Legislative
and Regulatory entity of Municipal policies, has as its primary objective to comply with and
enforce national, regional and local legal regulations in order to achieve a systematic
improvement in the quality of life of residents. inhabitants of this Municipality,
Due to the above and in accordance with article 95, paragraph 4, of the Organic Law of the
Municipal Public Power, it is the obligation of this Building Body to permanently review the
current Ordinances to achieve harmony in each of the social, economic, fiscal, educational
among others.
In this sense and after an exhaustive review of the Ordinance on Economic, Industry,
Commerce, Services and Similar Activities of the Campo Elías Municipality, Mérida State, it
has been determined that article 99 of the same contravenes economic principles, financing
and essential elements of the current national Tax regulations, so it is urgent to adapt the
aforementioned article, in terms that do not harm the State, much less the taxpayer, which
consequently is the same people; and generate dynamic regulations framed in the
Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and attached to the economic and social
realities of the Municipality, the State and the Country.
Given the need to maximize the use of the resources obtained by the Mayor's Office of the
Campo Elías Municipality obtained through its own financing sources such as the levy of taxes
that by constitutional jurisdiction were granted to these territorial political entities. The citizen
mayor of the Campo Elías Municipality, representing the voice of the people, with a
democratic tradition and leading participation in the processes linked to the exercise of
efficient government, makes the formal request to the Municipal Council of the Campo Elías
Municipality of the state of Mérida, as a legislative entity, promoter and regulator of local public
policies, of a partial reform of the ordinance on economic, industrial, commerce, services and
similar activities of the Campo Elías municipality of the state of Mérida in its article ninety-nine
(99) which uses the aliquots for economic items and items that must be paid by taxpayers
2
domiciled in this jurisdiction.
It should be noted that we invoke article 133 of the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of
Venezuela in which every citizen must and is obliged to contribute to the public responsibilities
of the State. The reform of said article was made through a detailed study in which it deprived
the principle of fair distribution of the burdens of taxpayers residing in our municipality, a
principle contemplated in article 316 of our Magna Carta.
Likewise, we ensure that those taxpayers who are less favored in their economic and
contributory capacity are not affected in their financial sphere by the monetary amounts that
they must pay to the municipal treasury. We believe that the political situation and the
economic crisis that our country is experiencing are unavoidable variables that must be taken
into account in the process of liquidation and determination of the tax burdens of social actors
and were the basis for our proposal. However, we understand that the processes of
contraction of the productive apparatus, the loss of purchasing power, intrinsic speculative
processes and the processes of inflation and stagflation that our country has been
experiencing for the last five years, make those responsible for managing municipal public
resources incorporate into their annual budget sources of financing other than the usual
transfers made from the central power.
However, just as it is the citizen's responsibility to comply with the heavy tax burdens
established by the Venezuelan State for the natural and legal persons of our country, it is
necessary to raise awareness among the people who have elected us for this laudable work,
about the duty to contribute to the municipal charges by virtue of the fact that the results
resulting from tax collection are reliably reflected in the quality of services and improvements
to communities and localities.
Likewise, our unavoidable commitment is to invest the resources from tax collection in the
satisfaction of public needs, that is, the provision of public goods and services, as well as to
reduce bureaucratic burdens in order to do so. contribute to the growth and development of
our municipality
The study and the proposal resulting from the research were made with the guarantee of,
firstly, not affecting the assets of the taxpayer, wanting them to remain in the municipality for a
long time, and secondly, shielding the resources of the municipal treasury in the long term and
guaranteeing that through this partial reform, the public assets of our jurisdiction are not
dented.
Therefore, we submit for consideration by this appeal body the reform of article 99, for which
the new classifier of items proposed for the process of determination and settlement of the
Tax on Economic Activities is annexed, in another known as Industry Patent and Trade.
