La Guijarrosa appoints three deputy mayors and distributes delegations

The City Council of La Guijarrosa has established the order of its three deputy mayoralties and the distribution of generic and specific delegations of competencies among the members of the governing team. The decision corresponds to the Mayor’s Office and is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Córdoba number 216, dated November 9, 2026, with the official reference BOP-A-2026-3652 and a length of two pages (15969 and 15970).

The decree, signed in La Guijarrosa on October 23, 2026, by Mayor Jesús Granados Baena, is issued in the exercise of the powers of direction and organization of the government and municipal administration, with resolutions dated October 19 and 23, 2026. The invoked framework consists of articles 21 and 23 of Law 7/1985, of April 2, regulating the bases of the local regime, and article 43 of the ROF; for specific delegations, article 43.5 of the same regulation is cited.

The Presidency reserves in all cases the power to resolve through administrative acts that affect third parties, unless expressly established otherwise, such that the delegated areas assume the promotion, direction, and direct management of services, but not the final decision regarding the citizen.

Three deputy mayoralties and order of substitution

The first point of the decree establishes the ranking of the deputy mayoralties, in this order:

• Ana Mª Requena Moyano, first deputy mayor.
• Víctor Manuel Ruiz Moyano, second deputy mayor.
• Amalia Gómez Cordobés, third deputy mayor.

The document adds that, in cases of vacancy, absence, or illness of the Presidency, including the cases of abstention provided for in article 46 of the ROF, the Mayor shall be replaced by the First Deputy Mayor, in the person of Ana Mª Requena Moyano. This provision makes the first deputy the guarantee of continuity for the municipal government.

Culture, participation, festivities, and urban planning

The generic delegations are distributed among the three deputies and one councilor:

• Ana Mª Requena Moyano: Culture and Tourism.
• Víctor Manuel Ruiz Moyano: Citizen Participation and Youth.
• Amalia Gómez Cordobés: Festivities, Equality, Social Welfare, and Education.
• Manuel Ruiz Alcántara, councilor: Urban Planning and Environment.

The distribution concentrates the social and educational block along with the Festivities area in the third deputy, while the first deputy assumes Culture and Tourism, and the second deputy is in charge of neighborhood participation and youth.

Sports and the areas retained by the mayor

As a specific delegation, the decree assigns to councilor José Mª Montes Castillo the service of Sports and technological development, also with the reservation of the presidential power to resolve acts that affect third parties.

The non-delegated departments remain in the hands of the mayor-president: Employment, infrastructure, works, public health, and human resources. This constitutes the core of the council’s economic and public works management, which the mayor expressly retains.

Acceptance within three business days and entry into force

Delegations must be notified personally to their recipients so that they may express their acceptance, although they are understood to be accepted if the delegate does not object within a period of three business days. The decree enters into force from the date of the resolution, without prejudice to its subsequent publication in the provincial bulletin.

The text closes with the commitment to report the decree to the Plenary in the first session it holds, a procedure that submits the design of the municipal government to the knowledge of the collegiate body.

With this distribution, La Guijarrosa completes the structure of its government team and clears up a practical matter for the residents: which area and which official handles each matter, from works and urban planning to social services, culture, or sports. Publication in the official bulletin also provides legal certainty to the delegations and allows administrators to clearly identify the competent body for each file.
