What Comune di Salerno does

Comune di Salerno is the municipal government of Salerno, a city in Italy's Campania region, operating as a local public administration entity under the Italian Republic's framework. It serves approximately 130,000 residents plus local businesses, tourists, and vulnerable populations through statutory municipal functions including civil registry, urban planning, waste management, social services, mobility, cultural programming, and local economic development. The municipality is currently governed by a Prefectural Commissioner (Dr. Vincenzo Panico, appointed 6 February 2026) following the suspension of the elected city council.

The municipality's service delivery is built on a platform-plus-portals digital architecture: a Drupal-based institutional portal (comune.salerno.it) linked to thematic sub-portals for culture (Salerno Cultura), mobility (Salerno Mobilità), environment (Salerno Pulita), social services (Salerno Solidale), and water/energy (Salerno Energia), plus an integrated services platform (PICS Salerno) funded by POR Campania FESR. Online services integrate with Italy's national digital infrastructure: SPID/CIE/CNS for authentication, pagoPA for payments, the IO app for citizen communications, ANPR for demographic data, PDND for interoperability, and BDNCP for procurement. The municipality is executing PNRR-funded digital transformation initiatives (cloud enablement M1C1-1.2, IO/pagoPA M1C1-1.4.3, PDND M1C1-1.3.1, cybersecurity M1C1-1.5) and pursues EU Urban Initiative and innovation hub designations.

Revenue is generated through municipal taxes (IMU property tax, TARI waste tax, tourist tax, TASI), administrative fees (public land occupation, permits, traffic fines), intergovernmental transfers, and EU/national funding (PNRR, POR Campania FESR/FSE). Service operations are delivered through four wholly-owned subsidiaries covering waste, mobility, social services, and water/energy, with notable cultural assets including Teatro Municipale Giuseppe Verdi and the Luci D'Artista winter lighting festival.

Core offering

Comune di Salerno is the municipal government of Salerno, Italy, providing administrative, civic, social, environmental, mobility, educational, and cultural public services to residents, businesses, and visitors. Services include civil registry and demographic services, urban planning and permits (SUAP/SUE), local tax administration (TARI, IMU), waste management, public transport, social welfare, cultural programming, and citizen participation initiatives. Delivery is through a multi-channel network combining in-person offices, a digital services portal, and specialized subsidiary companies.

Product overview

Comune di Salerno operates a comprehensive digital ecosystem centered on its institutional portal (comune.salerno.it) which serves as the primary gateway for all municipal services. The offering is a platform-plus-portals architecture: the main institutional portal provides civic information, administrative transparency (Amministrazione Trasparente), and citizen services, complemented by a network of thematic sub-portals covering culture (Salerno Cultura), mobility (Salerno Mobilità), environment (Salerno Pulita), social services (Salerno Solidale), and energy (Salerno Energia). Online services include digital demographic services, business permits (SUAP), building permits (SUE), civic access (Accesso Civico), public procurement (Albo Pretorio), and citizen reporting (SOS). Integration with national digital identity systems (SPID, CIE, CNS), payment platform (pagoPA), and the IO app enables citizens to access services digitally. The PNRR-funded initiatives (cloud enablement, cybersecurity, digital data platform) are being implemented under the digital transition framework.
