Descriptiontext

Unione Reno Galliera is a public inter-municipal union (Unione di Comuni) established in 2008 under Italian regional law, consolidating the administrative functions of eight municipalities in the province of Bologna, Emilia-Romagna: Argelato, Bentivoglio, Castello d'Argile, Castel Maggiore, Galliera, Pieve di Cento, San Giorgio di Piano, and San Pietro in Casale. Headquartered in San Pietro in Casale and operating under the regional oversight of Regione Emilia-Romagna, the union provides centralized public services to residents of the member municipalities in the Reno and Galliera basins of the Bolognese plain, including education and childcare, school meals and transport, social services (elderly care, disability support, family services), local police, civil protection, urban planning, building permits, cultural and sports activities, and business support via SUAP. Governance is exercised through a President, Giunta, and Consiglio composed of representatives from the member municipalities.

The union's core technology stack consists of two internal systems: WebSIT (Sistema Informativo Territoriale), a geographic information system portal developed in collaboration with Ambito S.r.l. that delivers use-case-specific modules for local markets and fairs, civil protection (Piano di Protezione Civile), WiFi hotspot mapping, and urban planning charge calculations; and a Zextras-based webmail authentication system for staff and administrators. The institutional website (renogalliera.it) serves as the primary citizen-facing portal, with auxiliary communication channels including Facebook, YouTube, Twitter (managed partially by the Tourism Office as 'pianurabologna'), a citizen alert system for civil protection notifications, and an email newsletter. The union also participates in regional PNRR (Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza) and Next Generation EU funding programs across all six missions, and is a member of ITALE, a community of large Italian municipal unions.

As a public administrative entity, Unione Reno Galliera does not generate commercial revenue. It is funded by contributions from its eight member municipalities and through regulated public-service fees for offerings such as school canteens and social services, with fee levels set by regional and municipal resolutions. The union operates a Centrale Unica di Committenza (CUC) for centralized procurement and a Servizio Informatico Associato (SIA) for shared IT services, and has established a dedicated Ufficio progetto Europa (European Project Office) to manage EU-funded programs. No private equity, venture capital, or individual ownership interests are present.
