Will they extend the contracts of tenants of temporary locations in Budva this summer?

As long as the Commission finishes drafting the program for temporary locations in Budva, it is necessary to hold a public hearing, and then the document should be approved by the local parliament, whose mandate has been shortened.

The municipality of Budva is thinking of extending the contracts with the old tenants of temporary locations through annexes until the end of this year, in the same way as will be implemented by the Government's decision by the Public Enterprise for the Management of Marine Assets with the users of a number of beaches.

This was confirmed by the "News" in the local administration as one of the possible solutions to get out of the impasse, because the municipal Commission for drafting and proposing a program of temporary facilities for the territory of the municipality of Budva for the period 2024-2028. she has not finished drafting that document yet.

The old five-year plan expired on December 31 last year, and now practically all hospitality terraces, temporary structures placed on municipal land from the Old Town to the hinterland, are illegal, and the old tenants are still using them, while the rents have not been paid.

In order for the Commission to complete the drafting of the program for temporary locations, it is necessary to hold a public hearing, which must last 15 days, and then the document must be approved by the local parliament whose mandate has been shortened.

All this leaves little time to conduct tenders and lease the location, it is even more questionable whether such a plan will get the green light in the midst of the election campaign, because it is known that years ago it was a model for collecting votes.

In order to extend the old planning document, it is necessary to give the green light from the Government, which further complicates the situation.

As another solution, as told to "Vijesti", one could wait for the Commission to finish its work and still schedule a session of the Municipal Assembly, the outcome of which is known in advance, because the administration's proposal Milo Božović, which is now managed by the vice president Jasna Dokić, and informally the president of the Municipal Assembly Nikola Jovanovic it will certainly not be supported by the convocation of councilors, except for the six that this political option has.

In that case, Dokić could, as the former president of the Municipality did Marko Carevic, that, in accordance with the Law on Local Self-Government, the President of the Municipality temporarily passes acts from the jurisdiction of the Municipal Assembly, referring to the famous Article 59, if the assembly "is unable to meet or for other reasons its work is prevented, and their failure to pass would endanger life citizens or property of greater value".

The act adopted in this way must be submitted to the Municipal Assembly at the first session, and if it is not confirmed by the local parliament within 90 days, it ceases to be valid.

In February, the detained President of the Municipality of Budva, Milo Božović, appointed the Commission for the drafting and proposal of the Program of Temporary Facilities for the territory of the Municipality of Budva for the period 2024-2028.

Božović, on the proposal of the Acting Secretary for Urban Planning, passed a resolution appointing the Acting Secretary for Investments as the President of the Commission. Joko Popović, the deputy president of the Commission is the acting chief city architect Jelena Lazic, and the members are the acting secretary for communal housing affairs Srdjan Gregović, then Assistant Secretary for Asset Protection Đorđe Zenović, assistant secretary for urban planning Danijela Marotić, Acting Chief of the Municipal Police and Inspection Vladan Braunović, head of the Protection and Rescue Service Dragan Božović, Assistant Secretary for Investments Marko Asanović i Nikoleta Lutovac.

Last year, the Budva promenade again resembled a fairground due to the increased number of temporary locations, various stands, game machines, merry-go-rounds and other contents, which was the complaint of the opposition that the main city promenade was once again turning into a mockery.
