San Pedro Bercianos opens the process for changing its birth grants

The San Pedro Bercianos City Council has opened the public information period for the modification of article 5.2 of the Regulatory Ordinance for Birth Rate Promotion Grants of the municipality. The agreement was provisionally adopted by the Plenary in the session of November 3, 2026. The announcement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of León number 215, dated November 12, 2026, with the official reference BOP-LE-2026-215013 on page 23.

The processing complies with article 49 b) of Law 7/1985, of April 2, Regulating the Bases of the Local Regime, which requires opening public information and a hearing for interested parties before making a modification of this type final. The text is signed by the mayor, Juan Luis Ferrero Rodríguez, dated November 5, 2026, three days after the plenary agreement and one week before its publication in the provincial gazette.

The article that sets the amounts

The modification affects article 5.2 of the ordinance, identified in the plenary agreement under the heading “Cuant”. This is the provision that determines the amounts of the grants to be received by families in the municipality, meaning that the approved change directly affects the amount of the benefits and not the rest of the structure of the regulation.

The announcement does not reproduce the full text of the new article nor the figures resulting from the modification, which must be consulted in the municipal file.

Thirty business days to file objections

The period for public information and hearing is thirty business days and is counted from the day following the publication of the announcement in the Official Gazette of the Province of León, that is, starting from November 13, 2026. During this period, interested parties and citizens in general may submit claims and suggestions to the San Pedro Bercianos City Council.

If no claim or suggestion is submitted within that period, the agreement adopted on a provisional basis will be definitively adopted, without the need for a new pronouncement by the Plenary. If there are any, it will be the responsibility of the competent municipal body to resolve them before final approval.

Where to consult the file

• Examination of the file at the offices of the San Pedro Bercianos City Council.
• Consultation of the announcement and the file on the notice board of the municipal electronic headquarters, https://sanpedrobercianos.sedelectronica.es.
• Submission of claims and suggestions addressed to the San Pedro Bercianos City Council within the indicated period.

In the same plenary

The plenary session of November 3, 2026, addressed a second regulatory modification: the change to Article 5 of the Fiscal Ordinance regulating the Tax on Constructions, Installations, and Works, regarding the tax rate, processed in accordance with Article 17.1 of Royal Legislative Decree 2/2004. That file is published in the same issue of the bulletin, on page 22, with the reference BOP-LE-2026-215012, and also has a 30-business-day period for public exhibition.

Both modifications share the same calendar and consultation channel, so that families and taxpayers of the municipality can review both files on the electronic office during the same period.

The change in birth grants comes in a context of sustained municipal activity on this matter: in recent months, other town councils in the province have processed their own ordinances and birth grant calls, some with final approvals and others in the initial phase. In the case of San Pedro Bercianos, the decision affects the amount that beneficiary families will receive, meaning the open period is the only way to introduce changes before the regulation is definitively approved.
