The leaders of the VIII. district are reducing their own salaries due to the lost revenues from the parking system.

Leaders of the VIII district in Budapest voluntarily reduce their salaries in response to the city's decision to withdraw parking revenues from local governments. This move aims to alleviate financial difficulties caused by the recent agreement between the capital and the government. The district council anticipates a loss of 1.5 billion HUF, prompting the leadership to act in a politically and morally responsible manner. Salary cuts will affect the mayor, deputy mayors, and political staff, while council members' salaries will be frozen. The mayor will donate 15% of his salary to social support institutions. The district leaders have requested the mayor of Budapest to limit voting rights in the council and include local mayors in discussions.
