It's shocking in “Elenite“, human greed is the reason. You can't build in a riverbed. There, things were obviously announced in advance, on the other hand, someone seriously abused it“.

This was said on the show “Face to Face“ after the central news broadcast by Assoc. Prof. Petar Filkov, Dean of the Faculty of Hydrotechnics at UACEG.

“The investor must acquire the properties, the notarial deed makes it clear what this land is - is it regulated, is it a forest, etc. Where there is a river, it is reflected that it is a river. The one who applies for a building permit should have there are detailed development plans“, said Assoc. Prof. Filkov.

„The municipality cannot issue a building permit, the ownership, the purpose of the property must be clear. Things did not happen overnight, a long period of time passed, in which a building permit was obtained“, he said.

According to him, there is no river correction visible at the site.

„Studies are very expensive and time-consuming. In "Elenite" the irresponsibility was on the part of the investor, because it was clear that there was a river“, said Assoc. Prof. Filkov.
