Approval of the draft budget

The article reports that the town council of Tržič has confirmed the draft budget for 2027, which is expected to total around 24 million euros. The budget includes significant investments in infrastructure repair, particularly focusing on road damage caused by natural disasters in August 2023. Key projects include repairs to roads in Reber, Za Jezom, and Podljubelj–Voh, as well as bridges in Kališnik, Padar, and Ukc. Other major projects include the renovation of St. Anne’s Park and the auto camp, cycling connections between Tržič and Zadraga, and the second phase of the Green Heart of the City project. The budget also allocates funds for sports facilities, maintenance of municipal roads, and other community improvements. While the budget does not plan for new long-term debt, there are differing opinions among council members regarding priorities such as parking spaces, sports facilities, and infrastructure development.

The Tržič municipal council has confirmed the draft budget for 2027, which is projected to amount to around 24 million euros. The budget includes both income and expenditures, with a shortfall of approximately 2.32 million euros, to be covered by transferring funds from 2026. No new long-term debt is planned. Of the total expenditures, about 8.6 million euros, roughly 35 percent, are allocated for investments, primarily focused on repairing damage caused by a natural disaster in August 2023. Among the major projects, the municipality plans to spend around 1.5 million euros on road infrastructure repairs. This includes roads in Reber, Za Jezom, and Podljubelj, Voh, as well as bridges at Kališnik, Padar, and Ukc. Additional funding will go toward the renovation of St. Anne’s Park and the campsite in Ljubelj Jug, along with cycling connections between Tržič and Zadraga. The municipality also intends to allocate resources for the maintenance and construction of sports facilities, the second phase of the Green Heart of the City project, the rehabilitation of the Ljubelj Jug campsite, and the installation of a shelter at the Kovor Community Center. During discussions on the budget proposal, there were differing opinions among council members regarding priority investments. Svetnik Jaka Jankovec highlighted concerns over reduced funds for public parking lot preparation and the lack of investment in bowling alleys, football fields, and work in Ročevnica. He praised the planned water supply system in Palovičah and the parking lot near Križe Primary School. In contrast, Svetnica Nika Podakar supported the inclusive approach of the budget and emphasized the absence of new debt, advocating for increased funds for paving in Seničnem and highlighting key projects such as the roundabout near the Police Station and the connection to Ravnica North. Mayor Peter Miklič noted that demands for new roads, water systems, sewage, and sports facilities exceed the municipality's financial capabilities. He stated that the municipality’s annual investment potential is less than one million euros, necessitating clear priorities to avoid further debt. After discussion, the municipal council approved the draft budget for 2027 in its first review.
