Porto Velho Launches 90-Day Urban Oversight and Mobile Citizenship Services

The Porto Velho municipal government has unveiled two key initiatives aimed at improving urban management and public service delivery. On June 28, 2026, the City Hall began a 90-day urban oversight plan targeting vacant lots, sidewalks, and public spaces to ensure compliance with municipal regulations. Spearheaded by the Executive Secretariat of Basic Services (Sesb) under the Municipal Secretariat of Infrastructure (Seinfra), the plan includes enforcement actions such as 'Operation Clean Lot, Protected City' to tackle illegal dumping and health risks, and 'Accessible Sidewalks Operation' prioritizing safe pedestrian access, especially around commercial properties and large buildings.

Additionally, the city will host the 'Cidadania em Movimento Habitacional' social mobilization event on July 4, 2026. Targeting residents from ten housing developments including Cidade de Todos and Porto Madero complexes, the event will provide free services like medical consultations, vaccinations, legal advice, document issuance, and job placement assistance at EMEIEF São Miguel school in Jardim Santana. Mayor Léo Moraes emphasized the importance of bringing public services directly to communities to improve quality of life and social inclusion. Secretary Dr. Raimundo Alencar highlighted the event's role in community integration and humanized service delivery.

Background to the oversight plan includes reinforcing measures grounded in the Urban Posture Code and Municipal Tax Code, establishing clear goals, timelines, and accountability to monitor progress. The plan also oversees public space usage, public events licensing, and cemetery management, including infrastructure expansion studies.

These coordinated actions illustrate Porto Velho’s commitment to organized urban governance and fostering shared responsibility between government, property owners, and residents to achieve a better-ordered city.
