Sant Pere

What Sant Pere does

Sant Pere refers to the Ayuntamiento de Villajoyosa (also operating as Ajuntament de la Vila Joiosa), the municipal government of Villajoyosa, a coastal municipality of 35,000+ residents in the Marina Baixa district of Alicante province, in the Comunidad Valenciana, Spain. It is a public-sector government entity — not a commercial company — with statutory responsibility for local administration, urban planning, public services, social welfare, cultural programming, tourism, commerce support, public safety coordination, and citizen engagement within the municipality. The entity is funded primarily through public taxes and intergovernmental transfers, with most services delivered at no direct cost to residents.

The entity's core digital offering is a unified e-government platform built on PHP and WordPress CMS, comprising a Sede Electrónica for online administrative procedures and digital signatures, an electronic public procurement platform (Vortal), an online appointment scheduling system (Cita Previa), a procedure search engine (Buscador de Trámites), a transparency portal, online tax self-assessment and population registry tools, and a mobile application (La Vila App) on Google Play for citizen incident reporting. The website supports over 30 languages and is compliant with Spanish accessibility regulation RD 1112/2018, with accessibility diagnostics conducted by the national OBSAE observatory. Citizen service is delivered through more than 20 dedicated municipal departments spanning culture, sports, social services, tourism, urban planning, environment, commerce, and public safety, supported by physical citizen attention offices, prior appointment scheduling, and official social media channels (Facebook, X/Twitter, Instagram, YouTube).

The business model is non-commercial: the entity operates as a tax-funded local government authority and has no disclosed revenue, pricing, or monetization framework. Its customer base is the entire resident population of Villajoyosa, supplemented by tourists, visitors, and local businesses. Strategic partnerships are limited to a collaboration with the Generalitat Valenciana's Servicio de Teleasistencia for elderly support programs and the OBSAE accessibility review relationship. Headcount is reported as 8 in the input dataset, though this likely reflects a narrow tracked subset rather than total municipal employment.
