Benidorm will join the framework agreement between the Regional Ministry and the FVMP on cases related to tourist accommodation

At the next plenary session, Benidorm City Council will approve the application to join the framework agreement signed by the Generalitat Valenciana (Generalitat Valenciana), through the Ministry of Innovation, Industry, Commerce, and Tourism, and the Valencian Federation of Municipalities and Provinces (FVMP). According to this agreement, the authority to initiate, investigate, and resolve disciplinary proceedings for minor and serious infractions related to tourist accommodation located within their territorial area, as well as the administrative review of the resulting administrative acts, is delegated to the city councils.

This is reflected in the proposal signed by Mayor Toni Pérez, which will be submitted to the ordinary plenary session of March, which will be held next Monday. It recalls that on September 6, Benidorm City Council contacted the Regional Ministry to inform them of the council's interest in assuming this authority. The proposal also reflects the fact that the City Council was informed on October 21 that a framework agreement was currently being processed, outlining the procedure for requesting the delegation of powers under the agreement.

The aforementioned agreement has already been signed by the Generalitat, through the Regional Ministry, and the FVMP (Federal Municipality of Catalonia), which is why the proposal is being submitted to the plenary session to request its adherence. Furthermore, approval implies the intention to "formally and expressly" adhere to every one of the clauses contained in the aforementioned agreement, "assuming the obligations and commitments arising therefrom and fully adhering to all of them."
