Lagoa with Participatory Budget of 105 Thousand Euros

Açoriano Oriental31 August 2026 at 11:48

The Participatory Budget of the Municipal Council of Lagoa for this year is 105 thousand euros. This amount is divided into two distinct categories.

75 thousand euros are designated for a general category project, while 30 thousand euros are allocated to a youth project. This distribution reflects the municipality's intention to include both projects of general interest for the community and initiatives targeted at young people.

The Participatory Budget is a mechanism that allows citizens to participate directly in defining public investment priorities, contributing to management that is closer to local needs.

Dias da Costa, who claims to have won the presidential elections interrupted by the coup, urged serenity and argued that the country's stability must be based on justice, legitimacy, and a truly inclusive national pact.
