Property tax order: Expensive Fates, High Salads

And until another decision, the latter will be obliged to pay them at increased prices, even though Finance Minister Iron Murati has made a proposal that municipalities forgive citizens of 100 euros.

One such thing was exposed by just this ministry's legal office, which has said current legislation does not authorise the Commission for pardoning property tax payment.

Despite this, however, some Communists have supported the decision and voted it out.

The same cannot be implemented until a decision by the Ministry of Finance.

The latter is now saying that I will bring to the amendment country that allows municipalities to pardon the debt of property in value of 100 Euros, but still has no such decision.

If you don't pay bills in time, citizens will grow interest.

Abraham: More expensive bills, plus interest unless they pay citizens

The executive director of the Kosovo Commission Association, Saban Ibrahimi, in an answer to Front Online says that if the ministry does not suspend the decision on the action it has made those bills for duty on property will not change.

If citizens don't pay these bills, then the property tax law will add fines and interest. So if the Ministry doesn't change the decision citizens are obliged to pay the tax bill on property as it has, so with this attitude increase that's been done without municipal consultation and if they don't pay it under the current circumstances then the second part will be paid fines and interest, so everything comes under the responsibility of the Ministry”, it's Ibrahim for the Online Front.

Ibrahim says they have applied for this decision to be suspended but that they have not received answers from Minister Murati, and that this is not his first time.

“This is not the first time that Minister Murati has not returned response to the mayors' demands, it's also happening in the demand of mayors who have been addressed to the prime minister and the minister where the suspension of the decision has been requested, but also not to raise the tax on property Minister Murati has returned without response, even though he has said he would listen to the mayors of municipalities as they think, but so far has not returned”, he added.

And he also talked about the amendment to the law through which the forgiveness of 100 euros would become possible.

The Minister Murati now claims that under the law's amendment it will make possible the forgiveness of these 100 euros, but we don't know how long the law's administration procedure lasts. Now if the law is not aired in a short time, then if citizens don't pay property taxes within the appointed term, then they will pay fines, and because of the minister's guilt, who is not taking a step in suspending the decision or not expensive property bills”, Ibrahim has indicated.

Chairman of the Kachanic: Sudden Government's Decision to Raise Property Tax

Kachanic Community Chairman Besim Ilazi is calling for the government to suspend the decision to raise property tax.

“As long as the issue of tax value or the value of the price the commission has determined we had this decision suspended and moved on to last year's decision, until the government's new decision on assessment of properties”, he said.

But he says he is skeptical that such a thing can happen.

“Taking into account the right to say that this Government always says yes and turns out not I'm skeptical, but I wish this time the voice and concern of the citizens, but it's the central level decision in hopes that it will reflect”, he added.

Mujarrier: The pardon of 100 euros in political marketing property tax cannot be done without law

Peja Community Chairman Gazmend Muharzier declares that citizens cannot be given 100 euros for property tax because this can be done without law.

Minister Murati's statement is being used for political marketing.

The minister can legally do this job in Parliament because he can't forgive this job, but this is being used for political marketing and I don't do that. The government should be proactive even if it wants to, if it's possible, to bring down the lower level of the cofficient that it will beat citizens by 0.1% to 0.1% and then this growth is eliminated and there's no trouble. Let's do it by law, that's not done, it's to bring law to parliament”, it's Mojarrier, for Front Online.

I, asked that if the bill is not brought to parliament, Muhrami has given a brief answer.

If it falls it will harm municipalities, because people wait for pay, the tax is increased, and this job goes on record, debacle”, said Mayor Muhajari.

The LDK deputy Doarsa Kica-Jeli has also written about the increase in property tax.

Kica-Jelili has named the Ministry of Finance initiative for pardoning the tax debt worth 100 euros.

According to LDK deputy, all of this is being done to house the Ministry of Finance's legal errors.

For the matter in question, Front Online has also sought answers at the Ministry of Finance, but the same have not answered the portal's questions.

Still, it is not known whether the ministry will take any concrete steps to ease the situation about increasing property tax, to which citizens have also warned of protest.
