Badia del Vallès and Sabadell: 30 days to approve municipal boundary changes

The Badia del Vallès municipal council initiated a procedure to alter the boundary line between Badia del Vallès and Sabadell, following a decision by its council on 30 November 2022. The process was made public without objections and received local authority reports. The amendment aims to align the boundary with urban reality and the Metropolitan General Plan, in accordance with article 14 of the consolidated municipal law (article 14 of Legislative Decree 2/2003).
