Fuente de Piedra approves the tax ordinance for the public price of electric charging

The Fuente de Piedra City Council has definitively approved the Fiscal Ordinance on the public price for electric charging at municipal charging points, according to the announcement published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Málaga on October 6, 2026. The agreement is published in the city council announcements section of that issue under the reference Edict 3555/2026. With the definitive approval, the regulation is finalized and establishes the payment regime applicable to electric vehicle users who utilize the municipal charging network.

The publication is framed within section 2 of the gazette’s summary, dedicated to announcements from the province’s city councils, where the Fuente de Piedra City Council appears as the issuing body. The classification as a definitive approval indicates that the file has passed the initial approval phase and the mandatory public exhibition process, meaning the text becomes fully effective once inserted into the official gazette.

The chosen instrument is a fiscal ordinance of public price, a figure applied to services provided voluntarily by the administration and governed by the municipal economic-financial regime. In this case, the object is the charging of electric vehicles at municipal-owned charging points, an infrastructure that until now was provided without a published specific tariff regime.

What the gazette publishes

The announcement in the Official Gazette of the Province of Málaga of October 6, 2026, precisely identifies the essential elements of the agreement:

• Issuing body: Fuente de Piedra City Council.
• Object: Fiscal Ordinance on the public price for electric charging at municipal charging points.
• Status of the file: definitive approval.
• Location in the gazette: section 2, city council announcements.
• Official reference: Edict 3555/2026.

The gazette’s summary does not detail the amount of the tariff nor the breakdown of time slots or power levels, details which are included in the full text of the ordinance approved by the municipal plenary.

A municipal network with its own tariff regime

Until the approval of this ordinance, charging at the municipal points of Fuente de Piedra did not have a specific fiscal instrument published in the provincial gazette. The new regulation provides the installation with a public price framework, allowing the service to be billed to electric vehicle drivers and organizing the economic management of the infrastructure.

The measure is added to other municipal actions of the same fiscal year in the fields of mobility and local taxation, placing the municipality among those that already have an express regime for the use of their charging points.

Process closed and effects

The final approval published on October 6, 2026, closes the processing of the ordinance and enables its effective application. Following its insertion in the Official Gazette of the Province of Málaga, the Fuente de Piedra City Council possesses an enabling title to charge a public price for the electric charging service at its facilities.

The announcement is published alongside other municipal agreements of the same number, including the final approval of the 2026 general budget of Villanueva de la Concepción (Edict 3690/2026) and the initial approval of the Circular Economy Plan of Cártama (Edict 3556/2026), within the block of city council announcements.

The entry into force of the ordinance directly affects electric vehicle owners who charge on the municipality’s public roads: from now on, the service ceases to be free or informal and now has an approved and published public price. For the Fuente de Piedra City Council, this means organizing the income associated with an infrastructure that requires maintenance and electrical supply, and establishing in writing the conditions of use for a network destined to grow with the electrification of the vehicle fleet.
