They would withdraw the transformation of the parking system with Christmas by the district mayors

Budapest district mayors demand the withdrawal of a decision to centralize the parking system, arguing it undermines local governance. They plan to initiate new discussions to ensure cooperation between city and district administrations. Concerns have been raised about the financial implications of the proposed changes, with estimates suggesting significant funding losses for districts. The mayors emphasize that a unified parking system's costs should not be borne by local resources, as this could jeopardize public services. The debate has seen unusual alliances, with both opposition and allied mayors criticizing the mayor's approach. Mayor Gergely has apologized for not consulting district leaders before making agreements regarding parking revenues.
