The President of the Budva Municipal Assembly, Krsto Radović (Democrats), said that the outgoing Government of Montenegro headed by Duško Marković continues with "unheard of attitude towards space, spatial planning and the most valuable resources of Montenegro".
"The outgoing government shamefully passed the current Law on Spatial Planning and Building Construction, which is completely ineffective and unenforceable, as all the citizens of Montenegro have witnessed. The law that led to the complete centralization of spatial planning, the removal of jurisdiction from municipalities and the complete Degradation of the profession. The outgoing government went a step further, instead of fixing the catastrophic situation, it passed amendments to this criminal law, continuing in the direction of the complete meaningless of spatial planning as a professional field, with the aim of further concretization and usurpation of the sea coast by their tycoons. Namely, in the transitional and final provisions of the amendments to the Law, Article 218a, it is provided that the act of the Government, among other things, may issue urban planning technical conditions for the construction of hotels, tourist resorts and tourist settlements, based on a higher order plan, which means without the preparation of a detailed plan elaboration, that is, of an urban project or a location study," Radović assessed.
According to him, this is a classic example of further brutal concretization of the coast, with a tendency to monopolize access to our coast, all in favor of their tycoons.
"Why did you gentlemen from the outgoing Government do several urban-architectural competition solutions as part of the development of the Special Purpose Spatial Plan (PPPN) for the coastal area, for which the Rules for the Implementation of the Plan state that UT conditions can be issued based on them? Do you know that in the Plan PPPN Coastal Area, which you adopted, in the same Rules for the implementation of the plan, in point 18 it is written that "Detailed elaborations for the development of tourism and infrastructure, which are an integral part of this plan, represent the basis for direct implementation, that is, the issuance of UT conditions.'' in rural areas for the needs of agriculture, housing for own needs and rural tourism, facilities of special importance for defense, protection and rescue, bathing facilities, maritime transport facilities, promenades by the sea, mariculture locations, reconstruction of existing fuel supply stations, solar power plants and wind power plants on the locations and subsurface areas proposed by the Plan for the exploitation of mineral raw materials,'' stressed Radović.
He emphasizes that it is clear that with the Spatial Plan for the Coastal Area it is not possible to directly issue urban-technical conditions for a location for tourist purposes without a detailed elaboration beforehand!
"It is simply contrary to the planning document. A drastic example of this kind of policy is the Nact of urban planning and technical conditions which, on the basis of the aforementioned article of the Law, and contrary to the provisions of the PPPN Coastal Area, the outgoing set of the Ministry of Sustainable Development and Tourism, led by Duško Marković and Dragan Čenić, prepared for the tycoon companies from Režević, apparently in close coordination, wrapping the whole story in wafers of public interest. In an exclusive location in Reževići, without creating an urban project or location study, without micro-location analysis, without defined urban plots and construction lines, without solving the traffic infrastructure, which is contrary to the provisions of the PPPN Coastal Area, it is planned to allow the concreting of our coast, i.e. the construction of a huge construction of the complex, all based on the provisions of criminal amendments to the Criminal Law on Spatial Planning and Building Construction. Of course, all of this cannot happen without JP Morsko dobro, the jailer of our coast for many decades, which is preparing the de facto monopolization of beaches and bathing areas by ``strategic investors'' at this very location in Reževići through its acts, Radović said.
He asked if they knew that with this kind of approach that you inserted into the amendments to the Law, all the principles of spatial and urban planning are being trampled on!
"Does this mean that there is no longer a need to prepare a study of the location of Lucica, the preparation of which you started, or a study of the location of Spas?" Or Gaul - White War? Does this mean that you are secretly preparing urban planning and technical conditions for these locations as well, immorally abusing this period while you are still sitting in chairs that do not belong to you by the will of the people? You, gentlemen, who opportunistically use laws to change plans, and plans change laws, all depending on current interests and current tycoon agreements and percentages, enough of this kind of attitude towards our coast and our living space! It won't work for you! The time of your DPS robbery "through wafers" of public interest has passed, and there is none of your work in the Municipality of Budva that did not end in an affair and robbery of this Municipality and the State. Be sure that in the period before us, the competent authorities will examine in detail the circumstances of this business, which is illegal, unfair, against the plan and against the true public interest of the citizens and the state of Montenegro," concluded Radović.
