There is an emergency need for an elementary school in Veternik, children in that neighborhood go several miles to the nearest schools. He also needs an emergency at Matt 1's Calabria. The music school had begun to build a few years ago, but these stopped building with the reasoning that there is not enough yard. Music schools don't have courtyards anywhere across Europe, since these” are looking for, Halimi said.

The former director, says he does not know why schools are left on the side of the municipal executive, but says that objects such as these are repeating in the budget plan each year.

The budget of 21014, we had left with some schools. They were not built, they were repeated annually through the budget. So, the money is. They're saying locations have property problems. Over the years, however, the municipality has had to find solutions. This mayor is not looking too good at dealing with situations, not even the simplest natural”, Halimi added further.

As in 2017, in this year, schools like: School construction in the neighborhood “Calabria”, where 300 thousand euros are earmarked. Construction of the school at “Mati 1”, 500 thousand euros.
