As Morski writes, Pula’s City Administration has opened a public consultation on the draft proposal of the decision on the temporary ban on the execution of works for the summer season of 2022. The move would put a complete stop to all Pula construction work throughout the warm period of the year, with just a few exceptions.
According to the draft decision, earthworks and construction of all types of buildings except public and social buildings intended for activities in the field of education, science, culture, sport, health and social care, the work of state bodies and organisations will be temporarily banned. Also on the ”exception list” would be the organisation of local and regional self-government units, legal entities which hold public authority and associations of citizens and religious communities, local portal Glas Istre (The Voice of Istria) reports.
All Pula construction work apart from the aforementioned exceptions to the rule would be banned from June the 20th all the way to September the 15th, 2022, as well as on all Sundays, during festive periods, and on public holidays.
However, the proposed ban, at least as it currently stands, doesn’t apply to construction taking place in the interest of the Republic of Croatia, nor does it apply to the removal of illegal buildings, or works taking place in the year in which the decision comes into force, should it do so.
