Institutional portal - Municipality of Milan

The Plan for the Development and Cohesion of the Metropolitan City of Milan was approved with CIPESS Resolution 50/2021 and implemented by the Administration with Resolution of the General Director 2877/2022.

The previous Pact for the Development of the Metropolitan City of Milan (so-called "Pact for Milan"), signed on 13 September 2016 between the Mayor of the City of Milan and the President of the Council of Ministers for the financing of 15 interventions.

The original allocation of the Pact for Milan, equal to 110 million euros from the FSC, (CIPE Resolution 56/2016), was confirmed for the Development and Cohesion Plan. Of these 110 million euros, 85 are assigned to the Municipality of Milan, which among other things holds the role of Responsible Authority for the Program, for the implementation of 10 proprietary interventions; the remaining 25 million are assigned to the Metropolitan City of Milan for the implementation of 5 directed interventions.

The Development and Cohesion Fund (FSC)

The Development and Cohesion Fund (FSC) is, together with the European Structural Funds, the main financial instrument through which policies for economic, social and territorial development and the removal of economic and social imbalances are implemented. The FSC has its origins in the Funds for underutilized areas (FAS): since 2010, the management of the Fund has been attributed to the President of the Council of Ministers, who makes use of the Department for Development and Cohesion, now established at the Presidency of the Council of Ministers and Department for Cohesion Policies (DPCOE).

Starting from 2011, the FAS took on the name of Fund for Development and Cohesion (FSC) and was aimed at giving programmatic and financial unity to the set of additional nationally financed interventions, aimed at the economic and social rebalancing between the different areas of the country. The FSC has a multi-annual nature in line with the temporal structure of the programming of the European Union's Structural Funds, guaranteeing the unity and complementarity of the procedures for activating the relevant resources with those envisaged for the Community funds. In particular, the Fund's intervention is aimed at financing strategic projects, both of an infrastructural and intangible nature, of national, interregional and regional importance.

The FSC is distributed with specific resolutions of the CIPE, subject to preventive control by the Court of Auditors.

The CIPE, now changed to the Interministerial Committee for Economic Planning for Sustainable Development (CIPESS), carries out coordination functions in matters of national economic policy planning and planning, as well as coordination of national economic policy with community policies.

The Supervisory Committee (CdS) of the Milan Development and Cohesion Plan is a body with steering and control tasks over the Programme, in accordance with the provisions of article 4 of the CIPESS Resolution 2/2021. It is chaired by the Mayor's Chief of Staff and composed of representatives of:
