In Togo, the Haho 1 municipality has approved its preliminary budget for the 2025 fiscal year, amounting to 317.8 million FCFA. This figure represents a nearly 20% reduction from the 396.3 million FCFA budgeted for 2024. The decrease is attributed to a commitment to streamline expenditures while maintaining essential municipal operations amid a backdrop of stricter public financial management.
For the year 2025, operational costs are projected to consume 169.1 million FCFA from total revenues of 211.3 million FCFA, resulting in a surplus of 42.1 million FCFA. This surplus will be redirected towards investment initiatives, supplemented by state funding. A total of 148.7 million FCFA will be allocated for various projects, including the enhancement of the Notsè municipal cemetery, the establishment of tax control posts, the renovation of market facilities, and the co-financing of a livestock market in collaboration with FACT and ANADEB under the PROGOUV program.
