At the same event, Mayor Eduardo Paes announced the creation of the Evaluation Commission for Urban Legacy Projects. The Commission will be consisted of representatives from the four city secretariats involved in the achievement of the sports events (Urbanism, Environment, Transportation and Public Works). The members will analyze and approve urban intervention projects referring to the preparation of the city, having as reference the criteria of the “Legadômetro” – economic, urban, social and environmental. “The legadômetro is one more transparency and follow up instrument. From the information collected, we shall work to improve our actions and achieve what had been planned”, explained Eduardo Paes, who also presented an overview of the City Hall actions since October 2nd 2009, when the city was chosen as the host city of the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Carlos Arthur Nuzman congratulated the City Hall for the work being done for the Games. “The City Hall has been developing actions that are already changing the face of Rio. The Games will integrate and benefit the whole city. Congratulations to the Mayor and his entire team for yet another job”, said Rio 2016 Committee president.
