Cheste replaces its mayor and reorganizes its municipal government team

The Cheste City Council has made public the replacement of its mayor and the subsequent reorganization of its governing team, with the appointment of the members of the Local Government Board and the deputy mayors. The three agreements are announced in the Official Gazette of the Province of Valencia number 178, dated September 16, 2026, within the Municipalities section. The official references for the announcements are 2026/11209 (replacement of the mayor), 2026/11210 (appointment of members of the Local Government Board) and 2026/11225 (appointment as deputy mayors).

The gazette, edited by the Provincial Council of Valencia, warns in its header that the publications appearing therein are the sole responsibility of the sending bodies. Announcements regarding the internal organization of city councils are inserted in Section I, dedicated to municipalities, and their insertion in the BOP constitutes the official channel for publicizing the acts of appointment and reorganization of local government bodies.

The coincidence of the three announcements in a single issue points to a coordinated operation: first, the replacement of the head of the mayoralty is resolved, then those who will integrate the collegiate governing body are designated, and finally, the deputy mayors called upon to substitute for the mayor and handle the delegations assigned to them are appointed.

Three announcements under a single heading

The summary of issue 178 groups the three announcements under the heading “Cheste City Council,” between pages 2 and 3 of the gazette, all with an insertion date of September 16, 2026:

• 2026/11209 — Announcement from the Cheste City Council regarding the replacement of the mayor.
• 2026/11210 — Announcement from the Cheste City Council regarding the appointment of members of the Local Government Board.
• 2026/11225 — Announcement from the Cheste City Council regarding the appointment as deputy mayors.

All three are published in Section I of the gazette, reserved for municipalities, and share the same official dissemination date.

Which bodies are affected

The Local Government Board is the collegiate body that assists the mayor in the exercise of their functions and which, within the framework of local government legislation, exercises the competencies attributed to it by law and those delegated by the mayor. Its composition is established through the appointment of its members, which is precisely the object of announcement 2026/11210.

Deputy mayors, for their part, are the councilors designated to replace the mayor in cases of absence, vacancy, or illness, in addition to assuming the areas or delegations entrusted to them. Announcement 2026/11225 formalizes those appointments, while 2026/11209 publicizes the replacement of the head of the mayoralty.

Together, the three acts redefine the distribution of power within the municipal government team and determine who exercises the political leadership of the Cheste City Council and who replaces them if necessary.

Official publicity and effects

The insertion in the Official Gazette of the Province of Valencia provides these appointments with official publicity toward third parties. Issue number 178, corresponding to September 16, 2026, is identified by the verification code BOPV-20260916-178 and can be consulted on the gazette’s portal, edited by the Provincial Council of Valencia.

The gazette reminds that the published content is the sole responsibility of the sending body, in this case the Cheste City Council, which is the entity that approves and communicates the organizational agreements of its municipal government.

The simultaneous publication of the mayor’s substitution, the composition of the Local Government Board, and the appointment of the deputy mayors closes the reorganization process and allows residents to know with certainty who holds each responsibility.
