Kokouksen laillisuus ja päätösvaltaisuus
The Development Director presents several current affairs to the committee, the most significant of which are the launch of the sustainable municipal economy program and the financial situation of welfare and vitality services for May 2026. Additionally, cultural affairs related to Lempäälä's 160th anniversary year, rural services, employment services, and youth council updates are reviewed. The committee is proposed to acknowledge this information. The next meeting in August is intended to address practices for grants and awards.
According to the agenda, official decisions from the period April 30 - June 3, 2026 will be presented to the Health and Vitality Committee for information. The list of official decisions has been provided to committee members as an appendix to the agenda, and corresponding information will be delivered to the Teams workspace once a week going forward. The committee is proposed to decide that it notes the official decisions for information and does not take them up for more detailed consideration.
The committee reviews the service plan amendment proposal for 2026, which implements the budget approved by the municipal council. The proposal suggests the allocation of appropriations to different areas of responsibility and service priorities for the coming year. The key development areas include, among others, promoting welfare, developing library facilities, opening spaces suitable for cultural activities, improving sports and youth services, and enhancing employment services. The plan also emphasizes taking climate impacts into account across all sectors.
