Énova initially approves the 2026 budget and workforce plan

The l’Énova City Council has initially approved the general budget and the personnel staffing plan for the 2026 fiscal year. This is stated in the announcement published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Valencia on August 28, 2026, under official reference 2026/10719.

The initial approval is the first step of the municipal budgetary procedure, which culminates with the entry into force of the annual accounts once the allegations presented during the public exhibition period have been resolved. The agreement affects both the forecast of the municipality’s income and expenses and the list of job positions that make up its personnel structure.

Initial approval and public exhibition process

The municipal plenary has given the initial green light to the economic document, which is now subject to public information so that citizens and interested parties can submit any claims and suggestions they deem appropriate. This procedure is mandatory in the processing of budgets for local entities.

Once the allegations period has ended, the file must be definitively approved so that the budget and the personnel staffing plan for the 2026 fiscal year can fully enter into force.

Content of the agreement

The approved agreement comprises two complementary instruments of municipal planning:

• The general budget for the 2026 fiscal year, which sets the income forecast and the expenditure limit of the City Council.
• The personnel staffing plan, which determines the vacancies and job positions of the municipal structure for the year.

Both documents constitute the basis upon which the municipality’s economic and employment activity is articulated during the year.

Regulatory framework

The processing is framed within the regulations governing local treasuries, which establish the obligation of city councils to annually approve their budget and subject it to public exhibition before its definitive approval. The announcement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Valencia to publicize the process and guarantee the right of interested parties to submit allegations.

The publication of the announcement in the official gazette certifies the start of the public information period and constitutes the formal channel for residents and entities to become aware of the content of the file and participate in the process.

Relevance for the municipality

The approval of the budget and the personnel staffing plan is a key milestone in municipal management, as it determines the resources available for services, investments, and public policies during the 2026 fiscal year. For the residents of l’Énova, the document defines which services will be provided, which projects will be funded, and what personnel structure the City Council will have throughout the year.
