Abstract: One of the great challenges that local authorities have to face in the current period of time is climate change and that environmental protection, the responsibility of creation or strengthening green cities appearing in the forefront. In this context, the success of policies based on regulations can be sustained and substantially enhanced by appropriate use of local fiscal instruments such as taxes, fees or expenditures. From this point of view, our paper suggests some alternative design, implementation and use of these fiscal tools so that they can manifest realistic as active levers to influence the activities and behaviors of actors involved to develop and strengthen green cities.
