Local tax increases for 2027 are a contentious issue among mayors, with Câmpulung's Elena Lasconi stating legal obligations necessitate hikes, while Craiova's Olguța Vasilescu opposes such measures, advocating for negotiations with the European Commission. Lasconi emphasizes that inflation-linked increases are mandated by law, despite her previous tax reductions. In contrast, Vasilescu argues that raising taxes would burden citizens already facing economic challenges and insists that the government should renegotiate these requirements under the PNRR framework.
