A public debate with local communities and citizens was held last night in the multimedia hall of the municipality of Tivat, in connection with the draft Decision on changes and amendments to the decision on the budget of the Municipality of Tivat for 2021. This draft envisages an increase in the budget by 3,080,000 euros, so that it would amount to 20,025,200 euros from the current 16,954,200 euros after the rebalance. The public debate was attended by representatives of local communities as well as interested citizens.

At the very beginning, all present were greeted by the President of the Municipality of Tivat, Zeljko Komnenovic, and introduced them to the need to adopt the proposed rebalance, which would open opportunities for investment in capital projects in the municipality. The President mentioned some of the planned projects for future implementation, such as the school in Radovići, the reconstruction of the tower in the Buća Luković complex, the project of a new school in Župa, a new kindergarten on the Dumidran / Gradiošnica stretch, but also mentioned requests from schools from the area of ​​the municipality, such as: the roof of the elementary school “Drago Milović” and equipping the computer room for the Public High School “Mladost” Tivat.

The Secretary of the Secretariat for Finance, Jovan Brinić, pointed out that this debate refers to the rebalance of the budget by the end of the year, and that public debates for the proposal of the decision on the budget for 2022 will soon follow. As he stated, better collection of utilities has created the conditions for investing in capital projects in the municipality.

Slobodan Gredo on behalf of the Investment Directorate pointed out that this rebalance will enable the rehabilitation of local roads by the end of the year, for which the Municipality received € 100,000.00 from the Public Works Directorate, and will invest an additional € 350,000.00 of its own funds.

Citizens’ interests varied from building new or rehabilitating existing roads, issues related to the Great City Park, the Župa site, to specific issues related to the amounts of individual items from the budget.

This public debate ended the Public Hearing Program regarding the draft Decision on Amendments to the Decision on the Budget of the Municipality of Tivat, followed by the Report on the Public Hearing conducted by the Secretariat for Finance.

Reconstruction of the auxiliary football field of FC “Arsenal”

Investing in sports infrastructure is a precondition for the development of sports tourism, but also for the popularization of sports in general, the achievement of sports successes and the constant progress of individuals and teams involved in sports. In the past period, several sports courts and fields in Tivat have been renovated and built, and when it comes to building new sports facilities, which would meet professional sports standards the local government has ambitious plans.

One of the major infrastructure investment projects is the recent reconstruction of the auxiliary field of the Football Club “Arsenal”. This project offered Tivat the first football stadium according to FIFA standards for professional competitions. The 7,920-square-meter site has automatic watering systems, artificial grass turf and a fence. The Municipality of Tivat has invested a total of € 197,000 in two phases of field preparation works, while the Football Association of Montenegro has allocated around € 220,000 for the same purpose. The Municipality of Tivat carried out preparatory works up to the level of installing artificial grass, while the procurement of watering systems, sprinklers, grass, goals and benches for reserve players was a donation from the Football Association of Montenegro.

Basketball court in the Great City Park

The basketball court located in the Great City Park, in the previous period, got a completely new look, since it is used in large numbers by young people, amateurs and professionals. The works worth around € 30,000 included: leveling the court, setting up two basketball structures with all the accompanying elements, installing a grandstand with 140 seats, but also installing a sports floor covering that covered 580 m2 of the existing court.

After the renovation of the basketball court in Main Park, Veliki Park, and the auxiliary court of FC “Arsenal”, Tivat creates good preconditions for the development of sports tourism. The beginning of the construction of a sports complex with the indoor pool in Župa will also contribute to that.

Also in this area, a children’s playground with associated furniture and the so-called “streetworkout” polygon are planned.

The total value of the project is around € 200,000, and its significance is multiple: popularization of sports and healthy lifestyles, creation of additional content for children and youth in this part of Tivat.
