Posted on 4th January 2017 at 15:09
October saw Malaga province obtain a major windfall of millions of euros from the European Union. The funds are from the EDUSI programme for sustainable and integrated urban development projects and they will have to be spent between now and 2022. Of the total sum of 40 million euros, Malaga city will receive 15 million, Estepona ten, Nerja five, and the remaining ten million euros will indirectly benefit Antequera, Ardales, Álora and Valle de Abdalajís.
Not all applications for some of this funding were successful. No money has been allocated to Marbella, Vélez-Málaga, Fuengirola, Benalmádena, Torremolinos, Alhaurín de la Torre or Cártama, all of which had presented proposals for projects to be financed with money from Brussels. However, there is expected to be a second chance to apply at the end of this month, for a further amount totalling 305 million euros.
