Funding for the LEO 2027–2030 Participation Fund
The Eindhoven Airport Consultative Body (LEO) discusses developments related to Eindhoven Airport and agreements regarding funds for health and quality of life. These funds will expire in 2026, but there is broad support for continuing the collaboration. For the period 2027–2030, Samen op de Hoogte has submitted proposals for funding. All participating parties—including the national government, provinces, municipalities, and the airport—contribute to this. Our municipality’s contribution amounts to €3,306 per year, to be indexed annually. This is approximately half of the current annual contribution. The municipal executive has decided to allocate an annually indexed contribution of €3,306 for the period from 2027 through 2030, drawn from the General Environmental Management budget, to the LEO Participation Fund and the Livability Fund, for the purpose of strengthening the operational capacity of the Eindhoven Airport Consultation Group.

DDV 3rd and 4th Budget Amendments for 2026
The key developments outlined in the 1st Management Report for 2026 of the Dommelvallei Agency concern costs for the purchase and implementation of the new EHRM system, costs for the implementation of the new financial system, costs for the Dommelvallei Agency’s new office space, and the additional contribution to the Leave Savings provision. In addition, the structural amount set aside for taxes can now be released. The financial implications of these developments have been incorporated into the third and fourth budget amendments for 2026. Pursuant to the joint regulation, the council has the opportunity to submit its opinion on the third budget amendment no later than September 25, 2026. The council is advised not to submit an opinion to the board of Dienst Dommelvallei. The board of Dienst Dommelvallei will ultimately adopt the third budget amendment—with or without changes—on October 28, 2025.

- The 3rd budget amendment for the Dommel Valley Service;
- The 4th Budget Amendment for the Dommel Valley Service.

Timeline for the New Grant Policy
In response to the Court of Audit’s report on subsidies, a four-phase plan has been drawn up for a future-proof subsidy policy, with January 1, 2029, as the intended effective date. This process, which is largely based on the Court of Audit’s recommendations, refines the focus on social impact and structurally strengthens the provision of information to the city council. The memo “Timeline for the New Subsidy Policy” describes these steps and is hereby submitted to the City Council for information. The Executive Board resolves to adopt the memo “Timeline for the New Subsidy Policy” and to forward it to the City Council for information.
