Olot appointed middle technician in informatics effective from September 18

The Olot City Council has appointed Martí Fontfreda Soy as a career civil servant in the category of intermediate IT technician. The appointment was formalized by decree of the delegated department of Internal Affairs dated September 17, 2026, under number 2026LDEC003733, and was made public in the Official Gazette of the Province of Girona no. 219 on November 13, 2026 (edict 9863, file RHCO2026000252). The economic and administrative effects of the appointment are retroactive to September 18, 2026.

A decree from the Internal Affairs department

The appointment was issued by the delegated councillor for Internal Affairs of the Olot City Council, within the personnel management competencies attributed to the council. The decree includes the remuneration, rights, and obligations inherent to the position, as established by current legislation for the assigned post.

The publication in the provincial gazette responds to the mandate of Article 82 of Decree 214/1990, of July 30, which approves the Personnel Regulations for the service of local entities. This provision requires general notification of the appointments of career civil servants approved by local corporations, meaning that the published text has informative value for any citizen and, especially, for candidates participating in municipal selection processes.

The edict is signed by the Mayor of Olot, Agustí Arbós Torrent, dated in the city on November 9, 2026, and includes the electronic verification code that allows the authenticity of the document to be verified.

Characteristics of the position

The awarded position corresponds to the following conditions:

• Category: intermediate IT technician.
• Legal regime: career civil servant.
• Scale: general administration.
• Sub-scale: technical.
• Classification group and subgroup: group A, subgroup A2.
• Destination supplement level: 23.
• Date of appointment decree: September 17, 2026, number 2026LDEC003733.
• Date of economic and administrative effects: September 18, 2026.

Subgroup A2 corresponds to positions requiring a mid-level university degree or equivalent, according to the professional classification applicable to personnel in the service of public administrations. Level 23 places the position below level 24, which the same council recently assigned to an intermediate technical position within the same technical sub-scale of the general administration scale.

Background: the wave of summer appointments

This appointment adds to other position provisions that the Olot City Council has published in the provincial gazette in recent months. Specifically, the edict published in the BOP of Girona no. 170 on September 1, 2026 —with a web publication date of September 3— included three appointments of career civil servants:

• Juan Antonio Galán Villena, local police corporal, special administration scale, special services subscale, group C1, level 22, by decree of July 28, 2026 (file RHCO2026000162) and effective from August 1, 2026.
• Antoni Francesc González Díaz, with the same category of local police corporal, group C1 and level 22, by decree of July 28, 2026 (file RHCO2026000163) and also effective from August 1, 2026.
• Maria Àngels Batlle Masdeu, intermediate technician, general administration scale, technical subscale, group A2, level 24, by decree of August 11, 2026 (file RHCO2026000184) and effective from August 16, 2026.

All these edicts were made public using the same legal formula: the invocation of article 82 of Decree 214/1990 and the signature of the mayor, which confirms a consolidated administrative practice in the publication of appointments of permanent staff at the Olot city council.

Why it is relevant

The official publication of the appointment formally closes the selection process and provides legal certainty both to the appointed person and to the other participants, who can thus learn the identity of the successful candidate and the exact conditions of the position. For municipal staff, the edict establishes the moment from which the economic effects are calculated —September 18, 2026— and, therefore, the remunerative and seniority rights derived from occupying the position of intermediate IT technician.
