The Ordizia Town Council approved the fiscal ordinances for 2027 last Friday in an extraordinary session, achieving broad consensus. Generally, municipal fees and taxes will rise by 4.5%, following the CPI trend. For waste collection fees, an additional 3% will be added to the general increase, fulfilling a three-year commitment to cover service costs.
Mayor Adur Ezenarro explained, "We have updated the fiscal ordinances to continue offering quality municipal services and ensure the Town Council's economic stability. Simultaneously, we continue to consider citizens' economic situations through bonuses and exemptions."
“"Our objective is to manage municipal resources responsibly to keep providing adequate services to the citizens of Ordizia and protect those in vulnerable situations."
Furthermore, a new exemption linked to the surcharge on empty homes has been approved, based on energy and water consumption. The bonus for homes included in the Bizigune program will also be increased to 99%, aiming to encourage properties to enter the social rental market.
Starting in 2027, a new tax on tourist stays will be implemented under Gipuzkoa Provincial Council's Law 3/2026. Ordizia will apply the minimum amount stipulated by this regulation. This measure is part of the collaboration among municipalities in the Goierri region, where all 18 municipalities agreed to apply the same tax to establish common criteria.
