A humanitarian project
The construction works on this project started in March this year. So far, 500 000 BAM has been raised thanks to 18 donators while the entire project implementation costs 1,2 million BAM. The mayor Bećirević said that the Municipality of Centre is involved in this project from the very start and that this amount is symbolic. He will suggest that bigger funds should be ensured for this purpose from the Municipality’s budget next year.
“As the chairman of the Assembly of the Federation of municipalities and towns of FB&H, I will address letters to 79 municipalities in FB&H requesting that every unit of the local government, as much as it can financially, helps further construction works of this object destined to families with place of residence outside the Canton of Sarajevo. Of course, the Municipality of Centre will, as earlier, continue to help this humanitarian project.” – said Bećirević.
The construction works
Lejla Kamerić stated that every donation no matter the exact amount is very important. “So far we have completed the majority of the construction works. It is planned that we finish the carpentry works, and the façade before winter so we could proceed with the interior works during the cold months. The object should be open by the summer 2015. It should be an efficient object when it comes to energetic resources, we should save 60 % which will facilitate the future maintaining of the object” – said Kamerić, who handed in a letter of thanks to the mayor Bećirević for his support to the Association.
