Meis delegates the contracting of the council's sanitation works to the Mayor's Office

The Plenary of the Meis City Council agreed to delegate to the Mayor’s Office all the powers that legislation attributes to the contracting body in the file for the works titled “Sanitation actions in the Municipality of Meis”. The agreement was adopted in the extraordinary session of November 4, 2026, and is made public by edict in the Official Gazette of the Province of Pontevedra (BOPPO) no. 216, of Monday, November 9, 2026, under the secure verification code Q8ZIH10MUAK756CC (reference 2026077689).

The delegation covers the approval of the technical project that serves as the basis for the contract and the set of acts regarding the processing, execution, and liquidation of the contract. The City Council frames this decision within the limits and conditions of Law 9/2017, of November 8, on Public Sector Contracts, and other applicable regulations, and also publishes the edict on the notice board of the municipal electronic headquarters (meis.sedelectronica.gal), for the purposes of article 51 of Royal Decree 2568/1986, of November 28, which approves the Regulation of Organization, Operation, and Legal Regime of Local Entities.

What competencies the Mayor’s Office assumes

The agreement is not limited to the signing of the contract: it transfers to the Mayor’s Office, which signs the edict through Marta Giráldez Barral, all the powers of the contracting body in the aforementioned file, including:

• The approval of the technical project that serves as the basis for the contract.
• The approval of the contracting file.
• The opening of the award procedure.
• The award of the contract and its formalization.
• Any acts and resolutions that may be necessary for its processing, execution, and liquidation.
• Incidents arising during execution: interpretation, modification, and termination of the contract.

The chosen formula concentrates all processing in a single body, such that the Mayor’s Office resolves both the issues prior to the tender and those that may appear after the award.

An action already included in the Plan Concellos

The contracted action is not new in the council’s documentary record. Under the same name, “Sanitation actions in the Municipality of Meis,” a grant of 482,829.47 euros appears in the list of aid processed by the Cooperation Service of the Provincial Council of Pontevedra and published in BOPPO no. 209, of October 29, 2026, within the Plan Concellos 2026-2027, line 1, with budget application 2026/942.9425.762.45 and entity code P3602800I.

In the same plenary session on November 4, the Meis City Council initially approved two budgetary modifications: a credit supplement of 29,360.17 euros (file 31/26) financed by higher revenues from the 2024 PIE Settlement, and a credit transfer of 14,000 euros (file 32/26) destined for cleaning and sanitation. Both files are on public display for fifteen business days from the publication in the BOPPO on November 9.

Processing and control

The delegation is published as an edict in the Local Administration section, under the heading “Other documents, notifications and public information,” of the provincial bulletin. For practical purposes, interested bidders should direct their actions to the Mayor’s Office as the contracting body, and not to the Plenary, regarding everything concerning this works file.

The decision has direct relevance for the residents: sanitation is a basic municipal competence and the work mobilizes an investment of nearly half a million euros in provincial grants. By concentrating the processing in the Mayor’s Office, the local government reduces intermediate plenary steps and gains margin to jointly resolve the award, modifications, and the reception of the works, which in works contracts usually translates into a more agile execution.
