The Santa Perpètua de Mogoda City Council has closed the proposal submission period for the 2026-2027 Participatory Budgets with a total of 102 citizen initiatives presented to improve municipal spaces and facilities.

The council will allocate approximately 200,000 euros from the municipal investment to carry out the actions decided by the citizens. The proposals, submitted between October 9 and November 8 by individuals aged 14 and over, focus mainly on the accessibility of streets and buildings, the updating of playgrounds, and the creation of shaded areas.
Once collected, the municipal technical team will analyze the technical and economic viability of each initiative, calculate its cost, and classify them into large (up to 50,000 euros), medium (up to 20,000 euros), and small (up to 6,000 euros).
The Councilor for Citizen Participation and Neighborhood Action, Sandra Gómez, highlighted the relevance of demands regarding accessibility and playgrounds, noting that the European Union plans to eliminate rubber flooring in playgrounds by 2031, a change the City Council will study how to address.
Currently, proposals are being reviewed to identify potential repetitions or groupings. Subsequently, an amendment period will open, and a Joint Commission (composed of four political representatives, four technicians, and four citizens) will make the final selection for citizen voting, scheduled between January 15 and February 18, 2027.
