On Monday, November 10, the Capital City Assembly will consider the Proposal for a Decision on the Program of Temporary Facilities on the Territory of Podgorica, and according to unofficial information from "Vijesti", that city act is probably itself of a temporary nature.
The editorial team's sources state that it is expected that the Ministry of Spatial Planning, Urbanism and State Property (MDUP), headed by Slaven Radunović, will soon adopt regulations that will regulate the issue of temporary facilities in all Montenegrin municipalities. This means that the Capital, but also other municipalities, will have to harmonize adopted decisions with the acts of the Ministry.
The document, which Podgorica councilors will discuss early next week, states that the Program is being adopted for a five-year period.
It is also emphasized that this city act contains zones and guidelines with urban planning conditions for the placement of temporary structures, as well as their types, shape and dimensions.
"Due to the dynamics of the city's development, in the period after the adoption of the Program, a significant number of requests were received from legal entities and individuals to include new locations in the Program, due to amendments to the Regulation on detailed conditions for the installation, or construction of temporary facilities, devices and equipment, as well as due to the expiration of the deadline for which the Program was adopted by the specified decision, the adoption of the proposed Program has begun," the document, which was published yesterday on the website of the local parliament, states.
The explanation of certain provisions of the Program states that it determines the territory for the installation of temporary facilities, and that the document was prepared in analog and digital form:
"And that it consists of a textual and graphic part. The bodies responsible for the implementation of the Program have been determined, as if it will be implemented in accordance with the decisions of the Capital City that prescribe local public revenues."
The draft Temporary Facilities Program was, it says, determined at the beginning of last December, and a public debate in electronic and written form was conducted by the Secretariat for Communal Affairs of the Capital City.
According to the report on the impact assessment of the Program, its failure to pass would create "business barriers for many legal entities and entrepreneurs, who in the previous period submitted requests for the marking of locations for the installation of temporary facilities...".
The goals, it is emphasized, are to improve the aesthetic and functional organization of the city.
"The adoption of the proposed Program will create conditions for a higher level of regulation in the area of placing temporary facilities, because the Program contains in particular: zones and guidelines with urban planning conditions for placing temporary facilities, as well as types, shapes and dimensions... The program will also, on the one hand, open up greater opportunities for encouraging entrepreneurship and preventing business barriers by opening up the possibility of starting certain economic activities in locations where the Detailed Urban Plan (DUP) has not yet been adopted and taking into account the significantly expanded list of temporary facilities, which will have positive effects on entities that will be enabled to carry out their activities in this way, and on the other hand, by specifying the shape and dimensions of temporary facilities, it will affect the aesthetic and functional component and protection of the appearance of the Capital City," the document states.
The document emphasizes that the implementation of this program does not require additional funds from the budget of the Capital City.
"No external expert support was used in the development of the program, but rather professional individuals from the authorities of the Capital City were engaged, and consultations were also held with representatives of the Ministry of Sustainable Development and Tourism, which specifically concern the interpretation of certain norms from the Law on Spatial Planning and Construction of Facilities in the part regulating the issue of placing temporary facilities. Also, the final test of the Program received the consent of the Ministry and the state administration body responsible for tourism and the administrative body responsible for the protection of cultural heritage and environmental protection in relation to protected areas, as well as the administrative body responsible for traffic...", it is stated.
