Alcaldía de Puerto Boyacá

What Alcaldía de Puerto Boyacá does

Alcaldía de Puerto Boyacá is a public municipal government entity in the Boyacá department of Colombia, established on December 14, 1957, serving approximately 50,000 inhabitants across a territory of 147.091 km². As the sole constitutional authority for local governance within its jurisdiction, it administers public services including public works, agricultural technical assistance (UMATA), urban planning, social development, environmental management, public transit oversight, tax collection, and cultural services through the Biblioteca Pública Municipal Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento. The entity is funded through municipal taxes (predominantly Impuesto Predial Unificado), national government transfers, and fees for administrative procedures.

The municipality operates a digital government services platform built on Microsoft SharePoint infrastructure, providing citizens with online access to administrative procedures, digital tax payments (via Software Tributario integration), a PQRDS citizen complaint system, public procurement portal, online citizen participation forums, and public accountability reporting (Rendición de Cuentas). The platform includes accessibility features such as font enlargement, high contrast mode, and keyboard navigation. Distribution is direct through a single headquarters (Edificio Municipal Carrera 2 Número 10-21) and digital channels including Facebook, X (Twitter), and YouTube, with the website hosting over 3,200 published news items in its Sala de Prensa.

The entity has no traditional revenue model; its operating budget derives from statutory tax collection and intergovernmental transfers. It has no parent company in the corporate sense but reports hierarchically under the Government of Colombia, with oversight from the Gobernación de Boyacá, Contraloría, Procuraduría, and Concejo Municipal. Current mayor Jhon Feiber Urrea Cifuentes leads a cabinet of eight secretaries covering general administration, treasury, social development, planning, public works, government, transit, and agriculture.
