The governing team of the Aretxabaleta City Council will bring a budget amendment of 1.3 million euros to the plenary session on November 18th. An additional 200,000 euros, to be allocated urgently by decree, will be added, bringing the total to 1.5 million euros. This funding will ensure numerous projects and allocations have sufficient credit to be initiated or completed before December 31st.
Through this measure, the governing team is closing a year in which it has promoted significant actions. Some projects, such as the works at Andramari and the Iturriza funicular, are already completed or tendered. Following the approval of this amendment, the works for the fronton, Ilargi Park, the padel courts, and the community gardens will be put out to tender.
The amendment will be financed with the treasury surplus. The largest allocations will be for the adaptation of the fronton (600,000 euros), the padel courts (420,000 euros), and the project on Lasitta street (120,000 euros). These amounts will supplement the available funds in each allocation up to their tender value.
The 2026 municipal budget initially included significant investment projects. With the modifications already made, the figure stood at 4.8 million euros, and with the currently proposed changes, the total investment will reach 6.3 million euros. Adding credits carried over from 2025, the total investment will amount to nearly 8 million euros. The objective is for all projects to be completed, underway, or tendered before the end of the year, so they can be 100% finalized by the end of 2027.
