Changes to the Responsibilities of Deputy Mayors in New Municipalities
June 17, 2025
The 93 deputy mayors of the new municipalities are gaining new responsibilities related to cleanliness and infrastructure. Although they will be allowed to sign administrative documents, they will not have executive power to give instructions to staff. Their role will be legislatively defined, reducing their dependence on the mayor's goodwill. The aim is to improve the management of municipal districts without political interference.
