The City Council of Barcelona (Catalan: Ajuntament de Barcelona; Spanish: Ayuntamiento de Barcelona) is the top-tier administrative and governing body of the municipality of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. In terms of political structure, it consists of the invested Mayor of Barcelona, currently Jaume Collboni, the Government Commission, and an elected 41-member deliberative Plenary (Consell Municipal) with scrutiny powers.




Mayor



The Mayor is elected by the members of the plenary among its members the day the new municipal corporation is formed after the local election. The officeholder has a mandate for the 4-year duration of the elected body. If the Mayor leaves office ahead of time a new voting may take place among the plenary members in order to invest a new mayor (meanwhile, another local councillor, conventionally the first deputy mayor, may act as acting Mayor). Since 17 June 2023 the Mayor is Jaume Collboni. The opening session in which the Mayor is invested is traditionally held at the Saló de Cent.




Government Commission


The Government Commission (Comissió de Govern; also Junta de Govern or Junta de Gobierno) is formed by the Mayor, the Deputy Mayors, and a number of appointed councillors.




Municipal Council


The municipal council (Consell Municipal) is the body formed by the elected councillors of the Ajuntament. The plenary meetings (Ple) are held at the "Carles Pi i Sunyer" Hall. It is formed by the municipal councillors, elected through closed party list proportional representation. 41 councillors are currently elected on the basis of the population of the municipality. Councillors are grouped in Municipal Groups on the basis of their political filiation. The Municipal Council can also meet in Commissions (akin to parliamentary committees).
