Marta Farrés

Marta Farrés is the current Mayor of Sabadell, a city in Catalonia, Spain. She is in the news due to two recent developments. First, she signed an agreement with Carme Trilla, president of Cohabitac, to cede six municipal plots for the construction of 122 social rental housing units. This initiative aims to increase the availability of affordable housing in Sabadell. Second, political turmoil is occurring within the Junts party in Sabadell. While Farrés is not directly involved in the Junts' internal conflict, the political landscape of Sabadell is being affected by the implosion of Junts, a significant political party in the city. This could potentially impact the city's governance and future political dynamics, making Farrés' leadership and decisions particularly relevant during this period of instability.
