Câmara Municipal de Bertioga

What Câmara Municipal de Bertioga does

Câmara Municipal de Bertioga is the municipal legislative chamber (Poder Legislativo Municipal) of Bertioga, a coastal municipality in São Paulo state, Brazil, established in 1993 following the city's first municipal election in October 1992. The Chamber is composed of 9 elected vereadores (council members) serving 4-year terms, currently in the 2025-2028 legislature, supported by an administrative staff of approximately 15 personnel across directorates covering administration, finance, legal, IT, HR, and general services. Its core functions include drafting and approving municipal laws, reviewing the municipal budget, conducting public hearings (including on health, finance, and land demarcation matters), and adjudicating the executive branch's annual accounts in coordination with the Tribunal de Contas do Estado de São Paulo (TCE-SP).

The Chamber operates a unified digital services platform built on the federal Programa Interlegis framework (SAPL for legislative process management, Portal Modelo for the website) integrated with SmarAPD for electronic procurement under Lei 14.133/2021. Its core products are the Portal de Transparência (publishing financial movements, contracts, audits, and open data), the e-SIC electronic citizen information system (integrated with the federal CGU Fala.BR platform), the Dados Abertos open data initiative with JSON APIs, and the Escola do Legislativo civic education platform. Accessibility is delivered through VLibras Portuguese-to-Libras translation and WCAG-compliant design features. The entity holds WCAG v1.0 accessibility certification and LGPD data protection compliance.

The Chamber is funded entirely through annual allocations from Bertioga's municipal budget (Orçamento Municipal), as legally mandated, with oversight from TCE-SP. All services to citizens — legislative information access, public hearings, information requests, and civic education — are provided free of charge as part of public service obligations. It does not generate commercial revenue, has no parent company, and operates as a government state entity under the Brazilian federal system with no subsidiaries.
