Catalan Association of Municipalities and Regions

The Catalan Association of Municipalities and Regions (Catalan: Associació Catalana de Municipis i Comarques, ACMC; Spanish: Asociación Catalana de Municipios y Comarcas) is a municipalist entity constituted on 3 October 1981 in the city of Vic. Its purpose is to defend the interests of the municipalities and the citizens of Catalonia. It is also known by its acronym ACMC or ACM. The association operates through assembly processes and has created sectoral commissions focusing on education, social services, health, and culture. Its Executive Committee appointed Ramon Montanyà, mayor of Vic, as the first president of the ACMC on 3 October 1981, and Jacinto Mateo as secretary general. Since 1985, its headquarters have been located on Valencia Street in Barcelona. The Assembly is the highest governing body of the ACMC and is made up of representatives of the associated local entities. It meets in ordinary session at least once every four years, though it may meet extraordinarily when the Council agrees on its own initiative or at the request of two-thirds of the associated local entities. The Assembly is responsible for electing the National Council and the President, as well as approving the general action plan of the Association. Within the Assembly, each associated entity has one vote, regardless of its demographic or budgetary conditions. In 2002, the Association received the Creu de Sant Jordi, a distinction awarded by the Generalitat de Catalunya. The association continues to be active, providing services, training, legal advice, and representation for local entities in Catalonia.
