The Nilüfer City Council has been involved in various local governance and community initiatives in Bursa. In mid-September 2026, the Council raised concerns regarding a proposed solid waste integrated facility planned between Kayapa and Kuruçeşme. Citing a technical report from the TMMOB Chamber of Environmental Engineers, Council President Mustafa Berkay Aydın warned that the project poses risks to drinking water basins and is located near active fault lines. The Council criticized the project for using outdated data and urged for a more transparent, participatory decision-making process. By late September 2026, the Council’s focus included social development through the Nilüfer City Council Women’s Assembly. The Assembly announced its 2026-2027 roadmap, which features neighborhood meetings, disaster kit distribution, and the ‘Microphone My Sister’ initiative to engage women in rural and central areas. These projects aim to increase women's participation in urban management with multidisciplinary support from Bursa Uludağ University. In mid-October 2026, disaster preparedness became a central priority. Nilüfer Municipality and the Bursa Provincial AFAD Directorate co-organized the IRAP (Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction Plan) Workshop to develop action plans for the 2027-2031 period. Participants addressed risks related to Nilüfer’s soil structure and population growth, proposing the establishment of a disaster logistics center and neighborhood earthquake parks equipped with emergency gear. Mayor Şadi Özdemir emphasized the region's seismic vulnerability, stating that a major earthquake in Bursa would be “comparable in scale to an Istanbul earthquake” and noting that local capacity must be strengthened to prevent central resources from being overwhelmed.
