The objective of this new system is to carry out inspections, measurements, and checks on the operation of the services, verify compliance with contract conditions, and provide technical assistance to the City Council to determine possible deductions or penalties for non-compliance. The aim is to obtain objective information and technical criteria to evaluate service quality and ensure it is provided under the contracted terms.
This external control was already foreseen in the main cleaning and waste collection contract since its award on August 1, 2022. The concessionaire company, the UTE formed by COPASA, GESECO, and SETEC BUILDING (Ecolugo), had committed to annually contribute 1% of the contract's annual value to the City Council to finance this supervision mechanism. However, the Intervention report indicates that the income for the first three annual periods (389,454.85 euros) has not been recorded in the municipal accounts, nor have the payments been demanded from the company.
The procurement will be processed through an open procedure, subject to harmonized regulation, with the corresponding publication in the Official Journal of the European Union and on the Public Sector Contracting Platform.
Additionally, the Local Government Board approved the temporary coverage, through a commission of services, of the deputy position in the Urban Planning Management Service. The vacant position will be filled by a municipal official assigned to Urban Planning for a maximum of one year, extendable for another.
The contract for the conservation and maintenance of municipal football and baseball fields has also been extended to include the artificial turf facilities at As Gándaras I and II. This modification represents an annual increase of 13,697.20 euros and aims to ensure the good condition of these facilities.
Finally, a base of the 2026 Municipal Budget concerning a nominative subsidy of 19,000 euros for sign language interpretation services and social center maintenance has been modified. ALUSOR has been replaced by ASORLU as the beneficiary entity, as the latter did provide the sign language interpreter service during 2026.
