Complaints centre on the mayor, José Alberto González, and various concillors, who promised to negotiate with Tisa to get at least one bus stop in the centre of Palm Mar, but residents now fear that any promises given were empty, and that the Ayuntamiento has not carried out any negotiations either with the Cabildo or Titsa.

General indignation was expressed that Arona's ruling nationalist party doesn't seem to think there is any benefit to them in doing anything for Palm Mar residents, and that the politicians with the power concentrate on helping those who can offer something in return.
