Responsible for this content: Frank Menze
Manacor, Mallorca, is set for a change of mayor: Miquel Oliver plans to announce his resignation on Tuesday to seek the presidency of the Consell de Mallorca, the island council. Sources close to his party, MÉS per Mallorca, have confirmed the plan. Ferran Montero, the councillor for Culture Promotion and Education, is due to take over temporarily.
Oliver has been mayor since 2019. He is expected to explain his decision and announce Montero as his successor at a 12.00 press conference at the town hall on Tuesday. Montero, 31, will lead Manacor for the closing stretch of the current term. He plans to stand at the next local elections to try to keep the job.
