Sources: 12. Developments: 2. Discussions regarding the financial status and infrastructure of the Bilecik Municipality have intensified following concerns raised during council meetings. Initially, AK Party Group Spokesperson Onur Şeker raised issues regarding local infrastructure, such as sewage odors in the Çınarlar district and the need for more trash containers and road repairs. Şeker also addressed reports that the municipality’s debt to the Social Security Institution (SGK) was near 450 million lira. Subsequently, Burak Sel called for greater transparency, demanding a public disclosure of the municipality’s total debt. Sel referenced a 2025 Audit Commission report that valued the debt at 323.6 million TL and requested an updated breakdown of liabilities owed to tax offices, banks, private contractors, and the SGK. Additionally, Sel questioned a recent council decision to authorize new internal borrowing of up to 19 million TL, seeking clarification on whether these funds are intended for investments or existing obligations. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-12: Bilecik official demands transparency regarding municipal debt Burak Sel has demanded that Bilecik Municipality disclose its current total debt, including specific liabilities to the SGK, banks, and contractors, following recent borrowing authorizations. 9 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/bilecik-official-demands-transparency-regarding-municipal-debt ### 2026-10-05: Bilecik Municipality Council debates sewage odors and municipal debt In a Bilecik Municipality Council meeting, AK Party spokesperson Onur Şeker questioned Mayor Melek Mızrak Subaşı over sewage odors, infrastructure needs, and alleged municipal debts to the SGK. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/bilecik-municipality-council-debates-sewage-odors-and-municipal-debt --- Cite as: Bilecik municipal debt and infrastructure concerns.
