Overview

• The councillor surrendered her seat and left her government roles just before an extraordinary session convened to debate the 2026 tax ordinances.
• Municipal planners are examining a 2022 conversion of eight garage spaces into storage units carried out without authorization by a company she administered.
• Records show she failed to declare her administrator roles on taking office in 2023, later updating disclosures in 2024, with EL PAÍS reporting ties to three firms with €1.8 million in capital and a city salary requiring exclusive dedication.
• Government spokesman José Luis Horcajo described the resignation as a personal decision unrelated to the storage‑unit case, while Serrano denied wrongdoing and cited intense personal pressure.
• Opposition leaders said the mayor should have dismissed her earlier, the session was delayed, and the PP later lost the vote on the 2026 ordinances as it governs in the minority.
