What Adana Seyhan Belediyesi does

Seyhan Belediyesi is the statutory municipal government of the Seyhan district in Adana, Turkey, operating under Mayor Oya Tekin with administrative and financial autonomy granted by Turkish Belediye Kanunu. The entity delivers a broad portfolio of citizen services across 96 neighborhoods (mahalle), organised through directorates including Health Affairs (Sağlık İşleri Müdürlüğü) and Climate Change and Zero Waste (İklim Değişikliği ve Sıfır Atık Müdürlüğü, established 2022), plus wholly-owned operational subsidiaries: SEYTİM (Seyhan Teknoloji ve İnovasyon Merkezi), SEYMER (vocational training, 100+ courses), and SEY-MÜT (pet food production from surplus goods).

Its service portfolio combines digital and physical delivery: the E-Belediye online portal handles payments and applications, mobile applications (iOS/Android) cover municipal notifications and the Ayrıştır-Dönüştür-Kazandır waste-rewards program, while neighborhood Hizmet Büroları plus libraries, daycare (kreş) facilities, sports and cultural venues, and a fleet of 17 Bilgi Evi (information houses) provide on-the-ground access. The municipality follows a 'üreten belediyecilik' (producer municipality) philosophy, operating in-house factories for paint (Boya Üretim Tesisi), cleaning products, compost, recycled-tire flexible flooring (Esnek Zemin Kaplaması), sewing (Dikimevi), and pet food. Cultural infrastructure includes the Antik Luvi Kültür Merkezi (2023), the restored Lezzet İstasyonu food hall, and a Tıp ve Diş Hekimliği Müzesi co-developed with Çukurova University.

Revenue is derived from municipal taxation (property and environmental taxes), service fees (permits, licenses, facility rentals), waste and compost sales (3.6M+ kg recycled through Ayrıştır-Dönüştür-Kazandır), and property sales including Sarıhamzalı İşçi Konutları worker housing (59 units, 52 municipal workers as homeowners). Citizens receive core services free of charge, with select fee-based facilities. The customer base is the entire resident population of the Seyhan district, supplemented by Sağlık Kart discount partnerships with private healthcare providers (Medical Park, İstiklal Tıp Merkezi, Avrupa Hastanesi, Dünya Göz Merkezi) and a grant-funded greenhouse project with the US State Department Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration and the International Organization for Migration.
