Skopje, 14 August 2024 (MIA) – Skopje municipal mayors held Wednesday a coordination meeting deciding to send a motion to the government and the environment ministry proposing that the public enterprises for communal hygiene and parks and greenery be stripped of their jurisdictions. 

Participants in today’s coordination meeting decided to request transfer of the jurisdictions to the municipalities, said Orce Gjorgjievski, mayor of the Skopje Municipality of Kisela Voda.

“We ask the government to appoint a government representative and to launch a process of dissolving the two public enterprises and transferring the jurisdictions to the municipalities,” Gjorgjevski told reporters after the meeting.

He said that all but two Skopje municipal mayors attended the meeting, which focused on the state of affairs in the capital and the non-functioning enterprises. “The two mayors who didn’t attend are on vacation, but they sent their representatives,” he stated.
