Districts of Cartagena, Spain
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Spanish municipality of Cartagena has 24 districts, known as diputaciones (councils). The original 17 districts established at the beginning of the 18th century were maintained throughout that century, and were the equivalent of the pedanías (municipal districts) in other areas.[1] This administrative structure was put in place in response to population increase in that era, and because the municipality was becoming less tractable.[2]
There are committees with performing power and a few competences that arise from the municipality government and their name is juntas vecinales.[3] They are in some districts and localities.[4] Some administrative centres are available for the inhabitants of most districts and their name is omitas. Citizens can perform some administration processes such as such as registration of residency processes, information about and processes for works and installations, and so force there.[5]
