What COMUNE DI GAETA does

Comune di Gaeta is the municipal government of the city of Gaeta, located on the Tyrrhenian coast of the Lazio region in central Italy. The municipality administers public services for approximately 20,000+ residents, covering civil registry, urban planning, municipal taxation, public safety, environmental management, cultural affairs, and tourism promotion. The entity is governed by an elected Mayor (Sindaco), currently Cristian Leccese, together with a Deputy Mayor and the City Council.

The municipality operates its public-facing digital estate on the Municipium civic-services platform, delivered through the unified Sportello Telematico and integrated portals for business (SUAP) and construction/building permits (SUE). The platform meets WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standards and is integrated with Italy's mandatory national digital infrastructure, including SPID and CIE for citizen authentication, PagoPA for civic payments, ANPR for population-registry data, PDND for inter-administration data exchange, and eIDAS for cross-border EU access. Supporting channels include the physical municipal headquarters at Piazza XIX Maggio, an online appointment-booking system, an electronic identity-card booking service, an Albo Pretorio public-notices board, transparency and whistleblowing portals, a citizen-complaint portal (Segnalazione Disservizi), and live streaming of council sessions.

The revenue model is that of a public administration rather than a commercial enterprise: recurring income is generated from regulated municipal taxes (notably TARI waste tax and IMU property tax), administrative fees, and concessions including beach concessions to local businesses. Pricing is not commercially published because fees and taxes are set under national and regional law. The municipality also pursues non-tax revenue through tourism promotion, EU and national grants (PNRR), and partnerships with bodies such as Regione Lazio, Slow Food, the Federazione Italiana Vela, and a flagship sister-city pact with Cetinje, Montenegro. Recent brand and recognition assets include 13 consecutive years of Blue Flag status, 17 Green Flags, 10 consecutive years of Spighe Verdi, and the 2026 designation as Capitale Italiana del Mare.
