Summary sheet
The project concerns the financing of multi-sectoral investment schemes forming part of the City of Rovaniemi's multi-year investment programme.
The project is expected to comprise small to medium-sized schemes in the fields of municipal infrastructure, housing, kindergartens, schools, environmental protection, and will benefit the Municipality of Rovaniemi.
The Municipality's long-term investment strategy aims at modernising the municipality's basic infrastructure and improving the quality of public services. The plan is based on the Rovaniemi Municipality's Master Plan, which was originally made in 2006 and updated in 2012. The Master Plan covers most of the areas under municipal competence - public transport, municipal roads, schools, childcare, public spaces, renovation of cultural heritage, reconstruction of social facilities, climate action, etc.
Finland, as an EU Member State, has harmonised its environmental legislation in line with the relevant EU Directives 2011/92/EU Directive and 2001/42/EC).
The Bank's appraisal will focus on the Promoter's environmental management capacity to properly apply the EU SEA Directive 2001/42/EC, the EU EIA Directive 2011/92/EU, as well as the requirements of the Habitats and Birds Directives where appropriate. Compliance with the EU Directive on the Energy Performance of Buildings - recast (2010/31/EU) will be further examined during appraisal.
