The Local Government Board of the Mutxamel City Council approved on September 3, 2026, the call for municipal welfare grants for school cafeterias for the 2026/27 academic year. The agreement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Alicante number 179, dated September 21, 2026, within section III, Local Administration, under the official reference 7161/2026. Interested families will have 10 business days to submit their application, between September 25 and October 8, 2026.

The published text is an edict from the Mutxamel City Council reporting the agreement adopted by the Local Government Board in an ordinary session held on September 3, 2026. The municipal governing body thus approves the call for school cafeteria welfare grants corresponding to the 2026/27 academic year, aimed at families in the municipality with school-aged children.

Deadline and submission of applications

The edict sets an application period of 10 business days, extending from September 25 to October 8, 2026, both inclusive. This is a limited time window of barely two weeks for families to submit their request.

• Start of the period: September 25, 2026.
• End of the period: October 8, 2026.
• Duration: 10 business days.

Rules and dissemination of the call

The regulatory rules for these grants will be published through three different channels, as detailed in the announcement itself:

• The municipal website of the Mutxamel City Council.
• The corporation’s edict notice board.
• The local educational centers.

This triple dissemination aims to ensure that the information reaches directly the families with children enrolled in the municipality’s schools, who are the recipients of the grants.

Official publication and signature

The announcement is inserted in section III, Local Administration, of the Official Gazette of the Province of Alicante number 179, dated September 21, 2026, on page 1, under reference 7161/2026. The edict is electronically signed by Rafael García Berenguer, Mayor-President of the Mutxamel City Council.

The call is part of the line of municipal welfare grants that the council activates at the beginning of each school year, in this case specifically focused on the cafeteria service.

Impact for families

The measure directly affects the household economies of Mutxamel with school-aged children, as the cafeteria is one of the most significant recurring expenses of the school year. The approval of the call and the publication of the deadline in the official gazette mark the starting point for interested families to gather the documentation and formalize their application within the fixed two weeks, with no margin for late submissions.
