The president of the provincial institution, Salvador Fuentes, reported that despite the plan's late approval this year, the provincial Treasury managed to advance the effective payment by five days compared to the previous year. The plan, unblocked on March 25 after the budget approval, is the result of an agreement between the Popular Party and IU.
Fuentes emphasized that this plan strengthens and guarantees municipal public services and contributes to the repair of infrastructure damaged by storms earlier in the year. The 784 interventions will be divided into five main areas: Basic public services (€8,056,013.98 for 275 projects), Preferred public assets (€7,690,257.55 for 319 initiatives), Economic actions (€2,068,189.23 for 79 projects), General actions (€1,871,002.02 for 90 projects), and Social protection and promotion (€910,178.02 for 31 projects).
The president highlighted institutional collaboration and joint work with the province's mayors, as well as with the Council's Economic Assistance service, to launch the plan in record time. He noted that since 2024, investment spending has increased by 12 percentage points, and the available credit between 2023 and 2026 has grown by 26.4%, from 16.3 to 20.6 million euros.
Projects financed under the 2026 Provincial Council Invierte Plan will have an execution period of 18 months, extending from January 2026 to June 30, 2027.
