The President of Harghita County Council, Bíró Barna-Botond, suggests delaying the implementation of the "Pay for What You Throw" principle by six months to allow residents to adapt. This proposal follows consultations with citizens and aims to improve waste management services. The delay would start on January 1, 2027, with proposed monthly fees of 21 lei in rural areas and 26 lei in urban areas. During the transition, waste collection frequency will be maximized, and an awareness campaign will be launched. Local authorities will review the proposal before a decision is made.
