The following is part of a note left on my user talk page by User:Ecemaml as part of a discussion of this and other articles; I used some of these references in the article, but I'm bringing it here in case any of this is of use to someone working on the article in the future.

In October 1986, the City Council of Villaverde, led by its mayor, Piedad González (then belonging to PSOE) approved to ask for the transfer to Biscay. See here [Now cited in article - JM]. Six out of seven councilors supported the transfer. Thee distribution of councilors can be seen in here (at least one councilor of the PRC, which supported the transfer). Piedad González Sainz was the mayor of Villaverde since 1983, see here [Now cited in article - JM].
As of this reference Villaverde de Trucios, una "isla" santanderina en Vizcaya [Already was cited in article - JM] that you use, the interesting points were not only the mention to the aforementioned vote, but the fact that the mayor wasn't socialist anymore. That is, since the vote, she was expelled or quited the PSOE.
In the following elections (see here [Not yet cited in article, but site clearly would be useful if anyone wants to fill in this and other local election results. - JM]) you can see that the PSOE nor the PRC obtained any representation. Only the Partido Demócrata Popular.
If you read this (I'm not too keen on using it, since it has an obvious Basque nationalist POV, but it's useful when it comes to raw facts), you could see that Piedad Gonzáled repeated as mayor, now for the Agrupación Unitaria Independiente.
The Agrupación Unitaria Independiente repeated as the majority party in the 1991 elections. However, I don't know what happened with the mayor, which nowadays seems to belong to the PRC.
