The Iași City Hall lost a legal battle against the tax authorities regarding a forced execution for 24.5 million lei due to irregularities in EU-funded projects. The local government claims the amount has already been paid. The tax authority issued an enforcement title in 2022 following the identification of issues in two projects, including restrictive procurement procedures and double funding for tramway rehabilitation. The Iași Court rejected the city's appeal in July 2026, with a further appeal scheduled for January 2027. Additionally, the city is seeking to recover about 290,000 lei for denied reimbursements related to a leisure area modernization project, which was also dismissed by the court.
