The Mislata City Council will hold an ordinary plenary session on July 30, during which the proposal for local festivities for 2027 and a motion from VOX to reform the La Canaleta pavilion will be voted on.

The Mislata City Council has called for the next July 30 at 10:00 AM an ordinary plenary session at the La Fábrica Sociocultural Centre (Espai Emprén). The agenda includes the approval of the minutes from the previous session, the proposal for local festivities for 2027, and several delegations of competencies, as well as three motions presented by the municipal groups.

The session will begin with the approval of the minutes from the ordinary session on June 25 and the extraordinary and urgent session on July 23. Next, the proposal for local festivities for the year 2027 will be put to a vote, a matter that directly affects the work and festive calendar of the residents of Mislata.

One of the highlighted points is the delegation to the Local Government Board for the contracting of works to expand the Public Centre for Vocational Training in Mislata. The project includes the construction of a classroom to meet the current needs of the centre, an action that will improve the educational offerings in the locality.

The competence for the comprehensive management of the residential and day centre for the elderly in Mislata will also be delegated. This measure aims to expedite the procedures for providing an essential service for the elderly in the municipality, which is currently managed by the council.

In the motions section, the coalition Compromís-Podemos-Recortes Cero: Sumem per Mislata will present an initiative to promote Valencian in the locality. Meanwhile, VOX will defend a motion for the urgent reform of the La Canaleta sports pavilion, a sports facility widely used by residents and which, according to the group, requires immediate action.

The Popular Group will bring to the plenary a motion for the repair of public roads damaged by container fires that have occurred in various areas of Mislata. The proposal urges the government team to restore the damage caused by these incidents on streets and sidewalks.

The plenary will also address the final approval of the modification file for Base No. 32 of the execution bases of the 2026 Budget, following the inadmissibility of an allegation presented during the public display period. This procedure will allow the municipal budgetary regulations to be adjusted to current needs.

The final part of the session will be dedicated to monitoring the other governing bodies, with the knowledge of the resolutions of the Mayor-Presidency and the agreements of the Local Government Board adopted since June 25. The question and answer section will close an agenda that mixes administrative matters with significant political proposals.

The call is part of the usual calendar of plenary sessions of the Mislata City Council, which typically holds an ordinary meeting once a month. The July session comes after an extraordinary and urgent meeting called on July 23, reflecting the intense activity of the council in the middle of summer.

Residents interested in following the development of the session will be able to do so in person at the La Fábrica Sociocultural Centre, although it has not been specified whether there will be a live broadcast. The plenary is a body of citizen representation and its agreements directly affect the daily lives of Mislata's inhabitants.

The approval of the local festivities for 2027 is one of the matters that generates the most interest among citizens, as it determines the non-working days in the municipality. The proposal will be put to a vote after the plenary approves the minutes from previous sessions, a procedure that is usually quick.

The delegation of competencies to the Local Government Board is a common practice to expedite public contracting, but it does not exempt the plenary from its responsibility for oversight. In this sense, the opposition will be able to scrutinise the agreements adopted by the governing body during the resolution monitoring point.

The July plenary is presented as a session with a notable administrative component, but also with space for political debate. The three motions presented by the opposition groups reflect the concerns of each formation, from the promotion of Valencian to the improvement of sports infrastructures and the repair of public spaces.

The reform of the La Canaleta pavilion is a recurring demand in Mislata, as it is one of the oldest sports facilities in the municipality. The VOX motion will urge the government team to undertake the works urgently, although it will be the plenary that decides whether the proposal goes ahead.

Regarding the container fires, the Popular Group is requesting that the pavement and urban furniture damaged in various streets be repaired. These incidents have been recurrent in recent months and have generated discontent among residents, who are calling for a swift municipal response.

The session will conclude with questions and answers, a space where the spokespersons of the municipal groups can raise current issues. No surprises are expected in the administrative points, but the motions could generate a more intense debate.

The Mislata City Council reminds that the call is published on the electronic headquarters and that residents can consult the complete agenda on the municipal website. Citizen participation in plenaries is a right enshrined in the Municipal Organic Regulation, although it has not been specified whether there will be a turn for public intervention.
