The municipalities of the Azores, like those in the rest of the national territory, are awaiting the Republic's Government to define what the alternative financing mechanisms will be for the investments under the Recovery and Resilience Plan that are still in the execution phase.
The situation is related to the need to find financing sources that replace or complement the European funds originally planned in the RRP, whose timeline and conditions of access may be undergoing changes.
The Azorean mayors have expressed concern about this lack of definition, since many municipal projects are dependent on these funds for their completion and they do not yet know how to proceed if the initial financing does not materialize.
The article does not specify which investments are at stake nor does it present concrete reactions from mayors or the Azorean regional government, limiting itself to noting the municipalities' dependence on the decisions of the central executive.
