The executive director of the company "General Invest" Željko Mitrović reacted to the claims of the company "Manor Hotels", published in the article: "Those who are further from the sea got the beach: The Tivat company asks the Coastal State to cancel the allocation of bathing areas."
DON'T MISS IT
"In the absence of legal argumentation, through arbitrary and subjective interpretation, with media pressure, the company 'Manor Hotels' from Tivat wants to prejudge the decision of the second-instance body on their complaint, even though the legal situation in this specific case is very clear."
"Namely, the Public Invitation to Submit Bids for the Lease of Hotel Beaches very precisely defines who has the right to participate in the public invitation and under what special conditions, stipulating that 'The right to participate in the public invitation for the lease of a hotel beach is held by owners or tenants of high-category hotels (5* or 4* and hotel resorts), which are located in the first belt along the beach', with a clear explanation of the first belt along the beach, i.e. that the hotel and the beach can be 'separated by a public area - a promenade, road, park, playground, parking lot or other public area', without any condition regarding the distance of the hotel from the beach, but rather that condition is prescribed exclusively in the case when there are no bidders with hotels in the first belt.
"Given the fact that the Boutique Hotel 'Porto Palace' (5*) is in the first strip next to the beach, because it is separated from it only by a road, that is, there are no other plots between the plot on which the beach is located and the plot on which the 'Porto Palace' hotel is located, which is according to the definition from the Public Invitation, the first strip next to the beach, and the fact that the 'Casa Manor' facility is not located in the first strip next to the beach because it is located on cadastral plot 120 KO Tivat, which is divided from the road or beach by two cadastral plots no. 122 KO Tivat and 123 KO Tivat, which are privately owned, this is the decision of the first-instance tender commission that is legal and the only correct one.
"The spin in the form of comparing the distance of the 'Porto Palace' hotel and the 'Casa Manor' hotel from the beach, although according to the clear criteria from the Public Call, this is of no influence if the facility is located in the first belt next to the beach, unequivocally indicates an attempt to pressure the second-instance commission to make an illegal decision in favor of the company 'Manor Hotels', to the detriment of both the budget and the company General Invest, which, unlike the company 'Manor Hotels', made a significantly higher financial offer," the response reads.
