2000 ordinance · 41 BOAM documents · €271.20 a year in fees
El Rastro runs on an ordinance twenty-six years old whose fines are still in pesetas, is billed through a city fee the ordinance leaves as rates per meter and month, with no annual figure, and is approved every year in a bulletin where in eleven years not a single objection is on record. These pages lean on the original documents alone, and say where every figure comes from.
Three city documents, read in the original and not in a summary.
| Document | Date | What it sets |
|---|---|---|
| Ordenanza Reguladora de la Venta en el Rastro de Madrid | Oct 26, 2000 | The market: hours, stall sizes, requirements, the draw for vacancies, the ceiling of 3,500 modules and the fines, still in pesetas |
| Ordenanza Municipal Reguladora de la Venta Ambulante | Mar 27, 2003 | Article 7, which obliges every district to approve and publish its list of pitches each year |
| Ordenanzas Fiscales, Epígrafe D, Grupo 5.º | 2026 edition | What a stall pays, by square meter, by month and by street band |
