Completed campaigns
Riga’s residents associations are eligible for support in maintaining municipal areas
The application period has ended.
Until March 18, the Riga Municipality invites residents’ associations that wish to clean up a municipal land plot and create a more attractive environment in their neighborhood to apply for municipal support – waste collection containers, topsoil and compost for setting up lawns and flowerbeds, as well as grass seeds.
Any residents’ association registered in Riga, including apartment owners’ associations, is welcome to apply. Residents must select a municipal land plot in their neighborhood where they wish either to collect litter or to create, for example, a new flowerbed or lawn. Land ownership can be checked on the municipality’s geospatial data website: georiga.lv.
To apply for support and indicate the type of assistance required, applicants must complete the application form.
Applications received will be reviewed and coordinated with the land plot manager. If the demand exceeds the available support, applications will be processed and approved in the order they were received, also taking into account the distribution among neighborhoods.
The planned support is expected to be available in the second half of September this year.
For any questions, residents are encouraged to contact their neighborhood coordinator. Contact information can be found here: https://www.riga.lv/lv/strukturvieniba/apkaimju-koordinatori.
Application period: 04.04.2026. – 18.03.2026.
Results
This spring, 23 initiatives by Riga residents’ associations were supported to independently improve municipal land plots, creating a more attractive environment in their neighbourhoods. The associations received practical support in the form of topsoil, grass seeds, compost and waste containers.
In total, 204 cubic metres of topsoil and 35 cubic metres of compost were delivered to residents’ associations to carry out improvement works, along with 128 kg of grass seeds. Waste containers were also provided at six locations to facilitate the collection of waste from the areas being improved.
The support for residents’ associations was organised and provided by the Riga Neighbourhood Residents’ Centre in cooperation with SIA “Rīgas meži”. The removal of waste collected by residents’ associations was organised with the involvement of the Maintenance Division of the Riga City Municipality’s Department of Outdoor Space and Mobility.
Residents’ associations have implemented various environmental improvements in their neighbourhoods, including restoring lawns and planting beds, creating flower beds and collecting waste.
