Overview
- Urban regeneration councillor Giancarlo Tancredi offered his resignation after prosecutors sought house arrest in the widening planning investigation.
- The Democratic Party has made its continued support of Mayor Giuseppe Sala conditional on sweeping reforms to Milan’s urban development policies.
- Sala spent the weekend in private reflection before addressing the City Council on Monday to announce whether he will complete his term or step down.
- Under Italian electoral law, a resignation more than 60 days before voting would install a special commissioner and push municipal elections to spring 2026.
- Major initiatives—from the San Siro stadium sale and Pgt revision to preparations for the 2026 Winter Olympics—risk delay under an interim administration.
