Krisztina Baranyi became the co-chair of the Association of Budapest Municipalities

Krisztina Baranyi has been elected co-chair of the Budapest Municipalities Association. The council, led by Mayor Gergely Karácsony, rejected the decision-making practices of the Capital Development Council, which excluded districts. Baranyi criticized the government's plan to centralize parking management, advocating for local control over revenues. The council aims to involve districts in revising the unified parking system agreement. Discussions also highlighted concerns over public safety and the delegation of police tasks to local authorities. The meeting ended with tensions among mayors regarding the redistribution of tourism revenues and housing programs.
