Salcedillo relieves his deputy mayor following Mayor's resolution

The Salcedillo City Council has formalized the change in the deputy mayoralty of the municipality. By Mayoral Resolution 34/2026, dated August 7, 2026, Cristina Domínguez Sanz has ceased her duties, and Víctor Otal Hornero has taken office as the new deputy mayor. The agreement was made public in the Official Gazette of the Province of Teruel number 157, dated August 19, 2026, under reference 2026-2473.

The publication responds to the provisions of Article 46.1 of the Regulations on the Organization, Operation, and Legal Regime of Local Entities, approved by Royal Decree 2568/1986, of November 28, which mandates the public disclosure of appointments and resignations of members of the local corporation.

A transition processed as a municipal file

The change was instructed through a file for the Resignation of the Deputy Mayor and Taking of Office of the New Deputy Mayor, processed by the competent services of the City Council itself. The document, electronically signed in Salcedillo, is published for the general knowledge of the residents and the administration.

The essential details of the agreement are as follows:

• Mayoral Resolution 34/2026, of August 7, 2026.
• Cessation: Cristina Domínguez Sanz as deputy mayor.
• Appointment: Víctor Otal Hornero as the new deputy mayor.
• Official reference: No. 2026-2473 of the BOP of Teruel.

Regulatory framework for publicity

The dissemination of the agreement is supported by Article 46.1 of the Regulations on the Organization, Operation, and Legal Regime of Local Entities, which establishes the obligation to publish agreements relating to the composition of the governing bodies of local entities in the corresponding official gazette. In this way, the cessation and the new appointment are formally recorded in the public registry of the province.

The document appears in the announcements section of the gazette, within the local administration block, and is electronically signed from the municipal management platform, with its corresponding validation code for verification at the electronic headquarters of the Provincial Council of Teruel.

A change in the local government structure

The change in the deputy mayoralty represents a reorganization of the governing team of Salcedillo, a small municipality in the province of Teruel. The deputy mayoralty is a position of trust that assumes substitution and coordination functions for the mayor; therefore, the appointment of Víctor Otal Hornero implies a new distribution of responsibilities within the corporation.

The agreement enters into force with the resolution itself, such that the new deputy mayor has been exercising the functions of the office since August 7. Publication in the official bulletin provides full publicity and legal certainty to the change, ensuring that both residents and administrations are aware of the new composition of the municipal governing body.
