Only one city out of five cities of oblast significance in the Poltava Oblast formed an amalgamated hromada. Horishni Plavni followed the example of Hadiach. This was announced by the Poltava Local Government Development Centre established with the support of the U-LEAD with Europe Programme and MinRegion.

"A decision to form amalgamated hromada with a centre in the Horishni Plavni is landmark. This is not only extension of borders, but also a radically new impetus for hromada development. Hopefully, other cities of oblast significance in the Poltava Oblast will soon form AHs," says Iryna Balybina, Director of the Poltava LGDC.
