The winning ideas with most citizens’ votes will share EUR 1 million, an increase of EUR 200,000 over last year’s budget
The Tallinn City Government approved at its session on Wednesday the results of the vote on the city’s participatory budget for year 2022. Generally, residents of the Estonian capital supported projects that would bring more greenery, outdoor sports and recreation equipment and amenities to parks and other recreational areas.
"I would like to thank everyone who took part in the participatory budgeting process, both those who proposed ideas and those who voted for them. I am glad that people care about their community and are actively involved in shaping the urban space," said Mayor of Tallinn Mihhail Kõlvart, as quoted by the city website. "Participatory budgeting gives us the insights of how people aspire their hometown to look in the future and gives people the opportunity to participate in the decision-making process."
A total of 11,140 Tallinn residents aged 14 or over took part in Tallinn's participatory budget vote. The vast majority of them – 10,777 people – voted electronically and 363 on paper. A total of 132 ideas were put to the vote in the eight districts. A third of the ideas on the ballot concerned the urban environment, a fifth targeted children and youths, and another fifth were aimed at improving sports facilities.
The project which has received the most votes in each district will be funded from the city's overall 2022 budget and will be implemented in the following year. Tallinn's Participatory Budget for 2022 is set at EUR 1 million – an increase of EUR 200,000 over last year’s budget. Three quarters of the total amount will be distributed equally between the districts, and one quarter will be allocated depending on a district’s population size.
These are the ideas that have received the most votes by district:
