What happened
On Wednesday, 7 October 2026, Gianyar Deputy Regent Anak Agung Gde Mayun handed the draft 2027 regional budget to the DPRD, the regency parliament, together with its financial note. His central message was that Gianyar will widen income beyond regional taxes.
At the same session the administration tabled six draft perda, or regional bylaws. Two of them touch the property market directly: one on housing and residential areas and one on construction services. All six are still drafts under discussion.
The budget in numbers
Own-source revenue, known as PAD, is planned at Rp 2.47 trillion for 2027. That is Rp 81.5 billion, or 3.40%, more than in 2026, and makes up 66.08% of all income.
Transfer revenue covers the remaining 33.92%, or Rp 1.27 trillion. Total revenue is therefore projected at Rp 3.75 trillion.
Spending is planned at Rp 3.69 trillion. Operating costs account for Rp 2.62 trillion, capital spending for Rp 707.67 billion, contingencies for Rp 8.5 billion and transfers for Rp 354.3 billion. The resulting Rp 60.8 billion surplus will offset net financing that is negative by the same amount.
Where the money comes from today
Regional taxes have so far carried most of PAD. The largest contributors include PBJT, a tax on specific goods and services that in Gianyar largely means tourism, plus the motor vehicle tax with its surcharge and PBB, the land and building tax.
Outside taxes, the main sources are regional levies, known as retribusi, and profits from separately managed regional assets. These are the streams the regency now wants to push harder.
What officials said
We keep pushing to intensify revenue sources beyond regional taxes, the deputy regent told the session, according to the report.
He said the revenue plan reflects the regency's real potential, last year's actual collection and economic conditions. Debating the six bylaws, he added, should give legal certainty and keep local rules in line with national legislation.
The six draft bylaws
The package covers an environmental protection and management plan for 2026 to 2056, regional innovation, housing and residential areas, construction services, population administration and disaster management.
The report does not describe what the drafts contain. Rules for builders, contractors and homeowners will only become clear once the DPRD debates the texts.
Why it matters in Ubud
Gianyar relies heavily on the tourism related PBJT paid by hotels and short-stay villas. A push for non-tax income suggests closer attention to levies for services, permits and the use of regency assets.
The planned revenue growth of 3.40% is modest, so the budget does not point to a sharp rise in the tax burden. The bigger open question for property owners sits in the housing and construction bylaws, which have not yet been published.
