Florianopolis Mayor Topazio Neto (PSD) was the guest of the first edition of the Super 17 podcast, a special project dedicated to the 17th anniversary of Jornal ND.

Topacio was asked about the main prospects for a real estate boom in the city and what is expected after the revised Master Plan is approved.

One of the main issues discussed was the Onerous Grant, a mechanism that aims to strategically manage urban development.

Super 17 also has special sections included in the ND magazine this August and workshops.

“We detail the law, it goes through the city council to consider any proposals and then sends it to the House. The point of this onerous subsidy law that we passed is that we make it easier in terms of provision, that is, we reduce the cost of those properties that need objects the most,” the mayor shared.

Topacio highlighted the shortage of real estate in the R$400,000 to R$600,000 range, drawing attention to the suppressed demand for medium and medium-low standard housing.

“For this price range, which we called standard mid-sized real estate, the mayor’s office has done a lot of research and the grant has a very reasonable cost that allows the entrepreneur to build more on the same land,” the mayor explained.

Another important point discussed in the podcast was the allocation of resources from the grant.

“The entire cost of the grant is returned to the city, part of it will be invested in the infrastructure of the neighborhoods, and part will be intended for social housing,” Topazio Neto emphasized.

He said that the resources will be used to build affordable and decent housing for the most needy families, which will improve living conditions in the city.

Topacio Neto’s participation in the Super 17 podcast speaks to the important role that the revision of the Master Plan will play in the future of Florianopolis.

The Super 17 series will continue to explore critical themes for the development and improvement of Florianopolis, offering valuable insights from several experts over the next few episodes.
