At the plenary meeting of the 73rd session of the VIII convocation, the deputies of the Izmail City Council of Odesa Oblast unanimously approved the budget of the Izmail City Territorial Community for 2026.
This was reported by an Intent correspondent.
The main parameters of the budget: budget revenues - UAH 1 billion 224 million, including
- general fund - UAH 1 billion 187 million 26 thousand
- special fund - UAH 37.13 million.
Budget expenditures - UAH 1 billion 254 million, of which: general fund - UAH 1 billion 100 million, special fund - UAH 154.2 million. The general fund surplus amounted to UAH 86.5 million. The deficit of the special fund is UAH 119.2 million. Working capital - UAH 50 thousand. Reserve fund - UAH 500 thousand.
The limit of local guarantees for 2026 is set at UAH 0, and the limit of local debt as of December 31, 2026 is UAH 47.9 million.
The surplus of the general fund indicates a cautious approach to planning revenues and current expenditures, while the deficit of the special fund is planned and related to investment and restoration projects.
The budget takes into account intergovernmental transfers from the state and other budgets, in particular
- educational subvention - UAH 155.4 million
- additional subsidy for the territories affected by the war - UAH 2.1 million;
- additional subsidy in the territory of hostilities - UAH 45.8 million;
- other subventions from local budgets - UAH 6 million.
A reverse subsidy to the state budget in the amount of UAH 2.07 million is also envisaged. A significant share of intergovernmental transfers, including the education subvention and war-related subsidies, emphasizes the budget's dependence on state support, while ensuring funding for critical areas such as education, security and community life support.
Expenditure structure and priorities
Traditionally, the bulk of community budget expenditures are made up of: salaries of public sector employees; payment for utilities and energy; and other protected budget items. In 2026, the budget envisages funding for 26 municipal target programs totaling UAH 190.2 million.
