Talavera de la Reina (Toledo) (EFE).- PP and Vox have signed an agreement this Friday to govern in coalition in the Talavera de la Reina City Council.
By virtue of this agreement, the PP candidate for mayor, José Julián Gregorio, will be elected councilor this Saturday and the head of the Vox list, David Moreno, first deputy mayor.
Gregorio has advanced that the bases of the new local government in Talavera de la Reina between PP and Vox “are established”, so that in the coming days they will adapt to the characteristics of the people who will assume their responsibility as councilors of the Government team.
He has also ensured that, as quickly as possible, the information and follow-up commissions that will complete, together with the Governing Board and the Plenary, the government structure of the next legislature will be established.
Six main areas of government in the Talavera City Council
The agreement reached between PP and Vox for Talavera de la Reina has been established in 6 main areas in which the far-right party occupies four Councilors, including the Environment, Parks and Gardens and Urban Habitat that will fall to David Moreno, who will also be the first deputy mayor.
Likewise, the Vox councilors will be in charge of the departments of Social Affairs, Disability, Family and Children; that of Culture and Artistic Historical Heritage, and that of Agriculture, Livestock and Rural Environment, Talavera Fair and Regional Identity.
The PP leads Urbanism, the Treasury and the Spokesperson
The rest of the councils, directed by councilors of the PP, are that of Urban Planning, Housing, Public Works and Infrastructures, General Services, Street Cleaning and Waste Collection, managed by Benedicto García, and that of Finance, Heritage and Internal Regime, for Jesús García Barroso, who will be the government spokesman and second deputy mayor.
The one on Economy, Employment, Entrepreneurship and European Funds, Digital and Energy Transformation and New Technologies will continue, it will be for Javier Muñoz-Gallego and the one on Contracting, General Affairs, Traffic, Public Transport and Mobility, and Citizen Security directed by Macarena Muñoz, although Gregorio will personally coordinate the security area.
Likewise, María del Pilar Guerrero del Olmo will be Councilor for Industry, Commerce, Fairs and Celebrations, as well as Third Deputy Mayor, while Gelen Delgado will be in charge of Citizen Participation and Associations, Neighborhoods, EATIMS, Tourism and Crafts, in addition to being the Deputy Government Spokesperson.
For her part, Julia González will direct the Department of Health and Consumption, Education, Healthy Habits, Accessibility and the Elderly, and Antonio Núñez, that of Youth and Sports.
There will be no Department of Equality
Therefore, from this agreement between PP and Vox in Talavera it follows that “Equality” is no longer the name of a Department, which in the 2019 term gave name to an area called “Gender Equality and Perspective”.
Gregorio has stressed that the corporation that will form the government “is a highly trained and prepared team that is going to move Talavera forward, to make it a leading city at a very important moment in the social and economic history of the city.”
