The Intermunicipal Council of the CIM Leiria Region approved today, October 27, important decisions for the safety and recovery of the territory. The opening of a public tender for the acquisition of 6 new forest firefighting vehicles, with an investment of 1.5 million euros (+ VAT), destined for six regional fire brigades, has been approved.
The CIMRL will request an urgent meeting with the Government to advocate for the extension of the application deadline for the Municipal Emergency Fund and the simplification of procedures, given the scale of damage caused by the weather events at the beginning of the year.
The CIMRL also expressed concern regarding the need for the CCDR Centro to ensure funding for pending payments to professionals responsible for assessing the reconstruction processes of affected homes, awaiting a solution to regularize the outstanding amounts.
The safety of the populations, the recovery of the municipalities, and support for families remain priorities for the Intermunicipal Community of the Leiria Region.
