Morrazo Shelves Waste-Fee Vote Until February, Pushing Start to 2027

Officials attribute the delay to a heavy volume of objections.

Overview

  • The definitive assembly is rescheduled for February 6 with a drafting commission on February 3, which pushes the ordinance’s legal entry to 2027.
  • More than 3,600 objections were lodged, including 1,482 from the hospitality association, 1,560 from councilor Daniel Chapela, and 290 from the Moaña PP.
  • Mancomunidade leaders allege ORAL transmission delays of over seven days, while the Pontevedra Diputación says it handled only five filings in three to four days, or 0.1% of the total.
  • The draft maintains a €126 annual household charge and reshapes business tiers, easing some variables for smaller venues and setting updated rates for hotels and tourist homes.
  • Political rivals claim tactical motives as first bills would land in mid‑2027, and officials say a new waste-service contract could still be tendered early 2026 for possible operation during 2026.
