Vila-real opens its youth camp subsidy ordinance for public consultation

The Vila-real City Council has initially approved the Municipal Ordinance regulating subsidies for local non-profit youth entities for the organization of camps aimed at the child and youth population of Vila-real, and has submitted it for public consultation for 30 days. The agreement was adopted by the Plenary in an ordinary session held on July 23, 2026, and the announcement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Castelló, number 101, dated August 22, 2026 (reference 03760-2026-U).

The new regulation seeks to promote participation, educational leisure, coexistence, and social values among the municipality’s minors, channeling public aid toward local youth associations that organize camps. The file is now available for any interested party to examine and submit allegations.

Public Consultation Period

The period for allegations is 30 calendar days, counted from the day following the publication of the announcement in the provincial gazette. During this time, the agreement can be consulted via CSV 16340501570322361227, verifiable on the electronic office of the Vila-real City Council (https://seuelectronica.vila-real.es).

• Public consultation period: 30 days from the day following publication.
• File consultation: municipal electronic office using CSV 16340501570322361227.
• Submission of allegations: through the ordinary channels of the administrative procedure.

Legal Framework and Processing

The processing is based on articles 49 and 70.2 of Law 7/1985, of April 2, regulating the bases of local regime, and article 133.2 of Law 39/2015, of October 1, on the common administrative procedure of public administrations. The announcement is signed by the Special Delegate Councilor for Youth, Javier López Parra, dated August 19, 2026, in Vila-real.

Entry into Force

If no allegations are submitted by the end of the period, the ordinance will be considered definitively approved and will enter into force on the day following the publication of its full text in the Official Gazette of the Province of Castelló.

The ordinance directly affects local non-profit youth associations and families in Vila-real, who will see the access to aid for the organization of child and youth camps regulated. With this regulation, the council provides a stable and transparent framework for a type of subsidy that until now lacked specific regulation, guaranteeing the competitiveness and control of public funds destined for the educational leisure of minors.
