Emanuele Moraschini, President of the Province of Brescia, also paid tribute to Lombardi's four decades of public service.
"The passing of Mirko Lombardi represents a significant moment for our territory.
He was a competent administrator, with deep knowledge of urban planning and environmental issues, and an interlocutor always attentive to the dynamics of the city and province," Moraschini said.
Rifondazione Comunista released a statement mourning their former national leader, praising his lifelong dedication to political, environmental, and housing rights initiatives.
Lombardi spent his final months following the passing of his wife, Rosanna Affò, in June 2026.
