New rules for local government funding: more money for schools, roads, and investments

This act reforms the financing system for Polish municipalities, counties, and regions by linking their budgets directly to the actual incomes of local residents. As a result, local communities will secure more stable funding for schools, road repairs, public transport, and environmental protection.
Key points
More money stays local – local government budgets will directly depend on PIT and CIT taxes paid by local residents and businesses.
Guaranteed education funding – the law clearly defines educational needs, ensuring stable financial support for local schools and kindergartens.
Support for green areas and development – municipalities with national parks or nature reserves will receive extra funds, while all local governments get dedicated money for investments.
Financial safety net – a special reserve will be created to support local governments with road construction, social welfare, and unexpected expenses.
