Catalan Association of Municipalities and County Councils

Who we are?

The Association of Catalan Municipalities was founded on October 3rd 1981 with the aim of being the representative entity of Catalan municipalism and of bringing together the concerns, needs and demands of the municipalities. Our motto is “one municipality, one vote”, with the aim that all municipalities, regardless of their size or number of inhabitants, are equal and have the same representation within the entity.

The ACM has become the reference municipal entity in Catalonia, with more than one thousand associated local entities. All Catalan municipalities belong to the ACM.

Since September 15th 2023, the president of the ACM is Meritxell Budó, mayor of La Garriga, and the first vice-president is Jaume Oliveras, mayor of Masnou.
