The Mitma’s electronic headquarters has published this provisional resolution of the call in competitive concurrence of Line 1 of the Programme to Promote the Rehabilitation of Public Buildings (Pirep local) included in the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan (PRTR).

In total, Mitma has selected 405 actions out of the 1,065 presented by the potential beneficiaries of the programme: municipalities, provincial councils, councils and island councils. At this point, it is worth remembering that municipalities with more than 50,000 inhabitants and provincial capitals could submit two applications, so there are 24 municipalities that have obtained funding for two rehabilitation projects.

Even so, the municipalities with less than 50,000 inhabitants are of particular relevance in the provisional resolution, with 321 projects awarded, which are entitled to aid of some 186 million euros, with an average subsidy per application of 579,531 euros. Of these 321 projects, 172 are in municipalities with less than 5,000 inhabitants, the so-called demographic challenge municipalities.

After the publication of the list, the selected local entities will have a period of 10 days to expressly accept the grants, before the final resolution is published.
