Sesiones

Última sesión13 de junio de 2026118 minWatch session

En una línea: El concejo aprobó por mayoría el Plan de Acción Comunal contra el Cambio Climático con un voto en contra, y por unanimidad una transferencia de $16,8 millones para internar una donación de ayudas técnicas desde Suiza valorada en más de $100 millones.

Temas tratados

  • Acta sesión N°17: Aprobación de rutina sin observaciones.
  • Patentes de alcohol (86 contribuyentes, julio–diciembre 2026): Renovación aprobada con exigencia de fiscalizar locales clase O (centros de eventos) no regularizados.
  • Avenimiento judicial causa laboral (Venegas vs. Municipalidad): Acuerdo extrajudicial por $2.339.180 pesos, ex funcionaria del programa CENDA.
  • Modificación ordenanza de tenencia responsable de mascotas: Actualización a la Ley Cholito (N°21.020); cambia definición de propietario, responsabilidad de atención veterinaria, registro de chip y multas (de 1–5 UTM a 1–30 UTM).
  • Plan de Acción Comunal contra el Cambio Climático: Instrumento de mitigación y adaptación elaborado con recursos propios ante falta de financiamiento externo de $50 millones; plazo legal vencía al día siguiente.
  • Transferencia a Fundación Sinergia Humanitaria: Pago de internación de donación desde Suiza (camas eléctricas, sillas de ruedas, scooters, microscopio, entre otros).
  • Designación de comisión de subvenciones 2026: Se designa a la concejala Beatriz Pavlasa para presidirla.
  • Informe agresión a funcionarios de salud (CESFAM): Medidas adoptadas: querella presentada, contención psicológica, protocolo con Carabineros, guardias 24/7 y restricción de acceso en fines de semana.

Acuerdos y votaciones

  • Acta, patentes de alcohol, avenimiento judicial, ordenanza mascotas, transferencia Sinergia y comisión de subvenciones: Todos aprobados por unanimidad.
  • Plan de Cambio Climático: Aprobado con un voto en contra (un concejal argumentó falta de tiempo de revisión, baja participación ciudadana y ausencia del comité ambiental comunal en el proceso).
  • En patentes de alcohol, un concejal se abstuvo de dos ítems específicos (N°69 y N°42) por razones de probidad y legales.

Plata y obras

  • Avenimiento judicial: $2.339.180 (pago único); demanda original era por ~$4.400.000.
  • Transferencia Fundación Sinergia Humanitaria: $16.800.000 para gastos de internación aduanera; donación estimada en más de $100 millones.
  • Empresa Alto Jardín (aseo urbano): Un concejal citó un contrato vigente por $1.362.983.400 en cuotas de ~$37.860.650 mensuales, cuestionando incumplimiento de bases (uso de vertedero municipal, falta de reposición de árboles).
  • Impacto no cobro de contribuciones a adultos mayores: El alcalde advirtió que la medida podría significar un menor ingreso de ~$130 millones anuales para la municipalidad vía Fondo Común Municipal.

Puntos de debate o controversia

  • Plan de Cambio Climático: Varios concejales aprobaron "a regañadientes" por vencimiento de plazo; cuestionaron los 125 encuestados como muestra, ausencia de metas en prevención de incendios forestales y falta de datos hídricos concretos.
  • Avenimiento judicial / CENDA: Concejales reiteraron su malestar por indemnizaciones derivadas de desvinculaciones en programas externos que salen de arcas municipales; mencionaron pagos acumulados de ~$100 millones en casos similares.
  • Seguridad pública: Debate sobre un homicidio reciente en la comuna (alcalde lo caracterizó como hecho aislado entre conocidos), robos reiterados y solicitud de refuerzo con la sección Centauro de Carabineros. Un concejal pidió reordenar la oficina de seguridad y contratar personal especializado en vez de usar conductores municipales.
  • Empresa Alto Jardín: Concejal cuestionó uso de fondos del Royalty Minero para financiar cuotas del contrato de aseo; alcalde prometió respuesta mediante informe jurídico.

Para seguir

  • Informe de fiscalización a centros de eventos con patente clase O no regularizada; posible mesa con Cámara de Turismo y Comercio.
  • Alcaldía debe entregar informe sobre empresa Alto Jardín: vertedero, horas extra, reposición de árboles y pagos mensuales.
  • Respuesta a solicitud de información sobre piscina municipal (

The PAES year is that of the admission process: the test is sat in November of the previous year. The average covers only those who registered to apply to university —not every secondary-school graduate— and groups them by the comuna of the school they graduated from, not by where the student lives. Here it rests on 129 students registered for the PAES.

Area = hectares of wetland within the comuna boundary (apportioned using the DPA table of each record). For wetlands shared between comunas, "portion / total" is shown. "Urban" = urban wetland (HUR code). Official source migrated to the SBAP (Law 21,600).

Large projects approved by SEIASource: SEIA · approved projects

Projects with an environmental permit (RCA) approved by SEIA and declared investment above US$ 10 million, located in the comuna according to the case file and grouped by sector. Every sector with at least one project is listed: this is not a ranking or a selection. 5 projects totaling US$ 410 million, approved between 1999 and 2020. When a project spans several comunas, its investment is split among them.

Approved is not the same as built or operating: the RCA authorises the project, but some were never carried out and others have since closed.

Source: projects with an RCA approved by SEIA (investment declared by the developer, split among the comunas the project spans). Under each sector are its two largest projects by investment. It is the best public proxy for large industrial sites; SERNAGEOMIN’s registry of active mining operations (by mineral and type of operation) is a layer not yet incorporated.

Almost no comuna has its own utility: it is served by a major regional concession holder. Water = urban operational territory (SISS; rural goes via APR); electric = concession distributor per the tariff decree (CNE); higher education = university, IP and CFT campuses (MINEDUC/SIES), with the nearest comuna when there are none.
