Alternative finds out how the Gjakova municipality gives AAK officials construction permission

Through a media communique, it becomes known that, “in the framework of engagement of the group of experts from Alternatives, for monitoring the work of local governance, we have recorded many irregularities and legal violations involving construction permits in the municipality of Gjakova”.

The alternative says the Urbanism Directorate has already returned to the service of clients of individuals and clans of the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo.

The alternative adds that, “the first cases of serious violations in the construction permit procedures, which were made with the insistence of the mayor of the municipality, Ardian Gjini, are permission for residential facilities of the Culture Deputy Minister, AAK member, Burbuke Bakija-Deva, even though you were refused during the mandate of past government, and CRRUx1>CHova head, Ahmeti, also a member and a close associate of the AAK <3->

“Building the collective object with afarism in B+P+8 etage, on Bujar Rocka Street (near to Prizren), and the collective object on the “Stars of Ernik” with the B+P+4 eage + The NK, considered a violation of the area regulatory Plan, the Law for Spatial Planning, and the Law for Building”, is said in communique.

Furthermore, it is said that providing construction conditions that are not in line with the regulatory plan and placing the 50m radius declarations, not respecting the body's legal documentation, is considered a violation. Also, the Gjakova municipality, through officials of the Urbanism Directorate, tends to consistently give construction permits to even those who have been denied requests over the past years, as well as to the same requirements have received negative answers from the Ministry of Environment and Spatial Planning, as is the case with objects on “Prizren's path”.

Also, over the course of the four months of rule, the Alternative says, “we have found that there are overbuildings and deviations from the construction regulatory lines in the facilities for which construction permits exist. Even these violations that have occurred before the eyes of local governance are objects of the AAK persons and militants, such as the case of the construction in the other building facility of the Bakija family, where two floors more than the provision of building permit, the Shala family in the vicinity of the Talic Bridge, where the object has joined the bridge despite the construction permit specifying that the object should be a few meters away, and the Paterik Star in the former bank section of the batik, which has been usurped public property by addressing the gabarin's body.

“Zertically, the alternative is on the verge of criminal speculation for the Gjakova municipality, as bloodova is now only beginning to be captured by individuals and groups of the Alliance, violating regulatory plans, laws in power and through the density of residence and overbuilding, is also deestimating the property of the citizens of the Gjakova municipality that are close to these <x1) objects, the communiques say.

The alternative says consistent violations are listed below:
