Local, Provincial and District Coordination Councils
The Local, Provincial and District Coordination Councils are bodies of coordination and agreement at the intra-regional and local level, provided for by the Organic Law of Municipalities, whose functions revolve around the formation of the Concerted Municipal Development Plan and the Participatory Budget, whose decisions in this context are binding. The Local Provincial Coordination Councils (Span. CCLPs) also have the authority to propose priorities for regional infrastructure investments and co-financing projects for local infrastructure and public services. The Local District Coordination Councils (Span. CCLD), for their part, can propose the development of local investment and public services projects, as well as district cooperation agreements for the provision of public services. They are made up of local authorities and representatives from civil society in a 60% - 40% percentage, respectively.
