The conditions have been reached for the termination of the contract with the company Adriatic Properties for the lease of four beaches from Pržno to Sveti Stefan, because despite two warnings, the defects have not been removed, and the bathing areas are not maintained.
This is what the president of the Board of Directors of the Public Enterprise Morsko dobro, Blažo Rađenović, said in an interview with "Vijesti", stating that non-compliance with contractual obligations will not be tolerated.
If the contract is terminated, he said that an agreement will be reached with the government company "Sveti Stefan hoteli" - the owner of the hotel complex Sveti Stefan - Miločer or the Budva Communal Company, on beach maintenance during the season.
The four elite bathing areas are practically unorganized, although the tenants' obligation was to put the beaches into operation in mid-May.
"On the basis of the basic contract of June 12, 2007, concluded between the Public Enterprise Morsko dobro Montenegro and the company Adriatic Properties DOO from Budva, parts of the marine property in the municipality of Budva, the settlement Sveti Stefan - Pržno, with a total area of 43.948 square meters, four beaches - western Svetstefanska , eastern Svetostefanska, complete Miločerska and Mala Kraljičina plazas. In the contract... it is written that throughout the year, in season and out of season, the tenant must ensure regular and orderly cleaning and maintenance of the marked part of the marine property and its immediate surroundings, regularly remove garbage and comply with regulations from the communal area", said Radjenović.
He added that the document also says that the Public Company can initiate the procedure for terminating the contract... "after giving the user a written warning and giving him an appropriate deadline depending on the reason for eliminating the reason for termination".
He emphasized that the public company, based on the minutes of its inspectors and on the basis of evident irregularities found at the swimming pools, has so far sent two written warnings to Adriatic Properties and the first verbal one during a tour of the grounds.
"Considering that all the irregularities have not yet been eliminated, the conditions for terminating the contract with the tenant have been met. It is not our intention to break the contractual obligation, but when the lessee forces us to do so, whoever he is, primarily by not maintaining the most prestigious bathing area on our coast that we gave him for maintenance, it is then a clear signal that someone wants to blackmail us and work by laws and regulations. We will not allow that and we will clearly respond to any such way of non-compliance with the contractual obligation", said Radjenović.
He said that the public must know that the public company will reach an agreement on maintenance either with the government company that owns the hotel or with the municipal utility company.
"These beaches will be ready to welcome guests as soon as possible. But we are certainly capable and determined to deal with everyone who does not respect the contractual obligation, as well as especially with wild builders and investors in the zone of maritime property. "We have only one message for them - we will demolish every illegal building, and we will prosecute irresponsible legal or natural persons," said Rađenović.
The owner of Adriatic Properties, a Greek businessman Petros Statis three days ago he said on A1 television that the company "Aman", which manages the hotel complex city-hotel "Sveti Stefan" and Villa Miločer, has decided to close its operations in Montenegro for this summer.
Statis was given four beaches for 65.000 euros
In the contract for the lease of four elite beaches, which was concluded with the company Adriatic properties 14 years ago by the then DPS-SDP administration of Morski dobr, it was specified that the annual rent is only 65.000 euros.
By that contract, the beaches were leased for 30 years.
"The amount of the annual fee will be paid for each corresponding year in 12 equal monthly installments due on the 5th of the month. In case of delay in the payment of the contractual fee, the user is obliged to pay the agreed interest in the amount of 7,5 percent annually, increased by the default interest of 4 percent annually," the contract reads.
