HCL 202 opens the 2026 budget, so it is not compared with HCL 537 — a new budget is not a cut.

HCL 209 opens the 2026 budget, so it is not compared with HCL 91 — a new budget is not a cut.

Property sold and letThe count is of decisions, not of buildings: one decision can cover several. The figures are not added up — a sale price and an annual rent are not the same thing.

Sale decisions: 70
Largest price: 223 EUR
Leases and concessions: 76
With a stated fee: 0

The most expensive sale in the period covered: 223 EUR, The city is selling a 20,86 m² plot (HCL 470). All 55 sales that state a price state it in euro, not lei.

Only 0 of the 76 lease and concession decisions say what is paid. The rest approve a contract, and the figure lives in the contract — an attachment, not the decision.
