Forty million euros less per year for the next five years in the coffers of the Island's municipalities . Anci Sardinia does the math after the government's communications on cuts to local authorities and warns: "There will be fewer services for citizens , and those who will be penalized in particular will be the most virtuous administrations in planning the Pnrr."
In a statement, the association of Sardinian mayors chaired by Daniela Falconi , first citizen of Fonni, expresses her "clear opposition" to the cuts: "It is incomprehensible how this spending review affects in such a significant way the parts of the State closest to the citizens. Impacting the current expenditure of the municipalities means that there will be fewer resources for the management of nursery schools, for services to the elderly and people in difficulty, for the cleaning and care of greenery and public parks and for all those services of which the our citizens are in extreme need ."
Daniela Falconi also underlines that «the better you were at finding Pnrr resources, the greater the cut will be for the next five years». He therefore asks the government to retrace its steps and the Sardinian parliamentarians to "intervene to correct this perverse plan".
The ANCI also turns to the Region asking, in the absence of responses from the government, "to challenge the decree" .
«The waste that lurks in the state machinery – underlines the ANCI – is quite different, certainly not that of the Municipalities which provide essential services for the citizens».
