The Permanent Electoral Authority announced the opening of polling stations in Rășinari for a local referendum on mining activities. Voters can cast their ballots from 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM. The referendum is linked to a proposed mining project by Mineral Proiect Invest SA, which aims to exploit magnesite in the Valea Dobra area. Residents will vote on whether they agree to any mining exploitation in the commune. For the referendum to be valid, at least 30% of registered voters must participate, and 25% of votes must be validly expressed. The mayor has issued a negative urbanism certificate for the mining project due to ongoing legal proceedings regarding the referendum.
