Carracedelo approves the distribution of 38,462 euros to urbanize Calle del Campo

The Carracedelo City Council has initially approved the imposition of special contributions to finance the urbanization of Calle del Campo and the distribution of 38,462.45 euros among the owners of properties with facades facing that road. The plenary agreement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of León no. 213, dated November 10, 2026 (official reference BOP-LE-2026-213006), within File 1067/2026, and opens a 30-day period to examine the file and submit claims.

The Plenary adopted the agreement in an extraordinary session held on November 4, 2026, with seven votes in favor from the councilors of the Popular Municipal Group and four abstentions from the councilors of the Socialist Municipal Group. The document is signed by the mayor, Raúl Valcarce Díez, and is based on articles 28 and following of the revised text of the Law Regulating Local Treasuries, approved by Royal Legislative Decree 2/2004, of March 5, which requires that the work generate a special benefit for the affected properties.

An investment of 225,000 euros included in the provincial plan

The action is listed in the Provincial Plan for Municipal Cooperation 2026-2027 with the following financing breakdown:

• Contribution from the Provincial Council of León: 205,000.00 euros.
• Contribution from the Carracedelo City Council: 20,000.00 euros.
• Total estimated cost of the work: 225,000.00 euros.

The amount borne by the City Council amounts to 44,756.31 euros, according to the breakdown of the agreement:

• Municipal contribution to the works: 20,000.00 euros.
• Project drafting fees: 7,563.03 euros.
• Work management fees: 15,130.25 euros.
• Health and safety coordination fees: 2,063.03 euros.

47 euros per linear meter of facade

The chosen distribution module is linear meters of facade, as it is a street with defined alignment, regulatory height, and buildable depth. The parameters are:

• Amount to be distributed among beneficiaries: 38,462.45 euros, equivalent to 85.94% of the cost borne by the City Council.
• Module units: 818.35 linear meters.
• Unit value of the module: 47.00 euros per meter.

The annex of the announcement lists 40 individual quotas, with cadastral references and facade meters. The highest quota corresponds to Olmo Arias Rodríguez, with 61.30 meters and 2,881.10 euros; the lowest is that of Emilia Fernández Arias, with 3.70 meters and 173.90 euros. The agreement itself warns that the amount is a mere estimate and that, if the actual cost differs from the projected one, the quotas will be recalculated.

Thirty days to appeal and form a taxpayers’ association

The file is displayed to the public on the municipal notice board and in the Official Gazette of the Province of León for 30 days starting from the day following the insertion of the announcement, during which period interested parties may file claims. During this same period, affected owners may form an Administrative Association of Taxpayers, in accordance with articles 36 and 37 of the consolidated text of the Law Regulating Local Treasuries.

If no claims are filed, the agreement on imposition, application, and organization shall be understood as definitively approved without the need for a new plenary agreement. The quotas will be notified individually to each taxable person and, failing that, by public notice, with the possibility of an appeal for reversal before the Plenary regarding the appropriateness of the tax, the cost percentage, or the assigned quotas.

Paving and sidewalks on a deteriorated street

The agreement justifies the special benefit based on the “grave state of deterioration” of the pavement on Calle El Campo, with potholes, breaks, sinkholes, loss of the wearing course, and rainwater drainage problems. Before executing the work, the City Council has renewed the sanitation and supply networks through administration, in accordance with the report from the Water Association of El Bierzo; furthermore, the road lacks sidewalks.

The now-approved action consists of the paving of the roadway and the construction of sidewalks, which the council classifies as a comprehensive renovation of the surface and not simple maintenance. The City Council previously applied this mechanism to the urbanization of streets in Posada del Bierzo (Avenida Los Jardines and Calle San Isidro), whose definitive approval was published in the provincial gazette on October 7, 2026.

The distribution directly affects the pockets of the owners of Calle del Campo, who must assume quotas between 174 and 2,881 euros, although the final amount will depend on the actual cost of the work. The announcement also opens the way for those affected to organize as a taxpayers’ association and negotiate or challenge the distribution before the agreement becomes final.
