Bulgaria's Directorate for National Construction Supervision (DNCS) has issued a total of 193 orders for the demolition of illegally constructed buildings, including 94 on the north coastline and 99 along the southern coast, DNCS head Ivan Simitchiev told a news conference in Bourgas on March 31, as quoted by Dnevnik daily.
All of the developments were located on the beach-front.
A fair number of the violations were ascertained in establishments serving food. A common transgression was their sewerage conduits being septic pits sprawling on the beach, which was highly inadmissible, Simitchiev commented.
Old construction units were found on many beaches and, consequently, the authorities had worked out demolition acts, according to the Spatial Planning of the Bulgarian Black Sea Coastline Act. These establishments had the status of temporary assembly constructions and had to be wiped out by municipalities, Simitchiev noted.
The Black Sea town of Pomorie has approved a proposal for the construction of a spacious and modern marina, with a capacity of over 600 yachts and small passenger ships.
Over the course of a year, from one of the leaders in Europe in new construction, Bulgaria became one of the countries currently quagmired at the bottom of the table and was now amongst the three worst hit countries, along with Romania and Slovenia.
The park is posed to act as an economic stimulant in the region, creating a modern infrastructural base for companies. It is set for completion by Q3 of 2010.
Both retailers target at least 50 outlets in Bulgaria by the end of 2010.
When will Bulgaria’s real estate and construction sector recover?
