SARAJEVO, July 27 (FENA) - The Club of Councilors of the People and Justice Party (NiP) in the Municipal Council Centar Sarajevo today, at a regular session of that council, submitted, together with other councilors, an initiative to initiate the impeachment procedure of the municipal mayor Srđan Mandić.
The municipal council supported that initiative and passed the Decision on initiating the impeachment of the mayor of that municipality.
Among the reasons for the loss of political support for Mayor Mandić and the submission of the aforementioned initiative as well as support for the decision to initiate the impeachment of the municipal mayor, as pointed out by NiP, is the lack of capital projects - failure to fulfill pre-election promises.
The factual situation, NiP added that in 2022, the execution of the budget for capital investments was at 37 percent, while the total execution of the budget was barely 50 percent, and this has been repeated year after year since the beginning of the mayor's mandate, despite the record amounts of the adopted budgets of the Municipality of Centar (in 2022, the budget amounted to 64 million, in 2023, it was 80 million KM).
They add that the lack of vision and capital projects of Mayor Mandić would not have been so hard on the citizens of the Municipality of Centar if the current maintenance of the Municipality of Centar had been carried out regularly.
"To conclude, mayor Mandić does not respect the budget adopted by the Council, he does not respect the Council, he does not respect the demands of the councils of local communities, and finally he does not respect the demands of the citizens, who have expressed dissatisfaction with his work on countless occasions and based on whose requests we are starting this impeachment," explained NiP, adding that it was proposed to the Municipal Council that the referendum on the impeachment be held on September 17.
