Bornova Mayor Ömer Eşki has transitioned from internal administrative reviews to active field enforcement regarding municipal services.

Initially, the Mayor held a summit with municipal leadership to evaluate the performance of various departments, including Cleaning Affairs and Agricultural Services. This meeting focused on reviewing projects implemented since 2024 and establishing a roadmap for future infrastructure and social projects.

Following these reviews, the municipality shifted focus toward direct field operations. Municipal police teams conducted overnight inspections along major thoroughfares, such as Kazım Karabekir and Mustafa Kemal streets, to remove sidewalk encroachments including bollards, flags, and advertising materials. These operations also included hygiene, licensing, and weight compliance inspections of local bakeries.

Mayor Eşki has since implemented a 24/7 field-based management model to oversee services and investments from the district outskirts to the center. This approach utilizes technical teams and department managers to conduct continuous inspections, working alongside local neighborhood heads (muhtars) to identify urgent needs like asphalt paving, lighting, and social facilities. By utilizing immediate bureaucratic intervention to bypass traditional paperwork delays, Eşki aims to shape the service and investment budget based on public priorities. He has emphasized a management style where decisions are made ‘on the streets among citizens rather than in offices,’ prioritizing ‘common sense’ and direct field presence to resolve urban maintenance and infrastructure issues.
