Communal Development Plan

The Communal Development Plan is the main instrument for the planning and management of the municipal organization. Its purpose is to contribute to an efficient administration of the municipality and to promote initiatives of studies, programs and projects destined to promote the economic, social and cultural progress of its inhabitants. The plan seeks to represent the vision of the future of the municipality and its strategies to achieve it. To this end, the plan results from a common effort, from the joint work between the municipality and community, assumed as a continuous and dynamic process in time. The political, institutional and administrative basis of this working guide arises from the Political and Administrative Foundations for Municipal Management and the Municipal Development Plan, which are derived from the Municipalities Law No. 18.695.

Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?

Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?

Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
