Arañuel puts out to tender the demolition and construction of niches in the cemetery

The Arañuel City Council has approved the project “Demolition and construction of niches in the municipal cemetery”, which is now subject to public consultation for a period of twenty days so that any interested party may examine it and submit allegations. The decision was adopted in an ordinary Plenary session held on August 27, 2026, and the announcement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Castellón number 105, dated September 1, 2026, with reference 03880-2026-U.

The action, drafted by the technician Ms. Yolanda Tortajada Urban, has a total budget of 39,900.00 euros, VAT included, and is included in the Provincial Impulsa Plan, which is biennial for the 2026/2027 period. This is a relevant public work for the municipality, aimed at expanding and renovating the capacity of the local cemetery.

Object of the work

The project involves the demolition of existing structures and the subsequent construction of new niches in the municipal cemetery of Arañuel. The intervention responds to the need to adapt and expand the municipality’s funeral facilities, improving the availability of spaces for residents.

• Demolition of current cemetery constructions.
• Construction of new niches.
• Total budget: 39,900.00 euros (VAT included).
• Financing: Provincial Impulsa Plan 2026/2027.

Public consultation process

The project remains available to interested parties for a period of twenty days from the publication of the announcement, so that they may examine it and formulate any allegations they deem appropriate. The documentation can be consulted at the offices of the Arañuel City Council and is also available on the municipal electronic office at https://aranuel.sedelectronica.es.

The announcement is signed by the mayor, Maria del Roser Gimeno Amoros, dated August 28, 2026.

Relevance for the municipality

The construction of new niches represents a direct improvement of the public services provided by the council to its residents in a field as sensitive as funeral services. Being financed by the Provincial Impulsa Plan, the work does not significantly compromise the municipality’s own budget resources, allowing Arañuel to undertake a necessary investment without straining its accounts. Furthermore, citizen participation during the allegations period ensures that the project can be adjusted before its final execution.
