The Municipal Inspection of Ulcinj, in collaboration with the Security Department and Border Police, initiated an operation on Thursday evening to dismantle illegally erected tents and wooden structures in the Velika Plaza hinterland.
The Secretary of the Secretariat for Communal Supervision and Inspection Affairs, Amir Mehmeti, stated that the operation occurred near the mouth of the right arm of the Bojana River, resulting in five misdemeanor fines issued to individuals from Montenegro, Serbia, Ukraine, and Poland, each amounting to 150 euros.
“This represents an illegal occupation of state land. Alongside the fines, we have mandated the immediate removal of tents and makeshift structures covered with tarpaulins, thereby clearing the area,” Mehmeti told “Vijesti”.
Inspectors and police had previously targeted illegal campers who set up tents at the very mouth of the Bojana River, which led to discontent among residents of nearby properties and bathing areas. During that period, authorities dealt with citizens from Serbia, Poland, and Russia who not only occupied state land but also lacked registered residency…
Concurrently, inspections, along with the executive team at DOO Zaštita prostor Crne Gore and members of the Ulcinj Police Department, cleared illegally placed tables and chairs from sidewalks, as well as advertising billboards and columns from the streets across approximately 20 locations, stretching from the Tri masline roundabout to the end of Moreplovca Street in Pristan.
“All individuals who disregarded earlier warnings from the municipal inspection have been issued misdemeanor fines and furniture has been removed. These efforts will persist in the future, as the municipal police are determined to enforce legal regulations to ensure that pedestrians can move freely on sidewalks and promenades,” Mehmeti stated.
The initiative to clear sidewalks and streets of tables, chairs, billboards, and cones continued on Friday evening in the city center, at Velika Plaza, and throughout the center of Štoje.
