The mayor of Sector 1, Clotilde Armand, says she will file a criminal case for the destruction of heritage “the moment Tony Greble or any other representative of the PSD and PNL has the audacity to challenge the town planning rules” of the historic city. district of Bucharest.

• “Nikusor Dan informed the public today (Sunday-no) that the current prefect of the capital, supported by the PSD and the PNL, wants to attack the PUZ protection zones in court on Monday, which would allow the document to be suspended, with the effect of the law on structures that are illegally erected in protected territories, and the construction of other structures in these territories without applying their special rules. That is, the prefect, the representative of the government in the territory, gives free rein to theft, in other words. So far, despite our requests, neither he nor the head of the State Construction Inspectorate has stopped any illegal construction,” Armand wrote on Facebook on Sunday, Agerpres reports.

She clarified that Sector 1 has the most protected historical areas in Bucharest.

• “I want to send a strong message: the moment Tony Greble or any other representative of the PSD and PNL has the courage to challenge the urban planning rules of the entire historic district of Bucharest, they will receive a criminal complaint from me for the destruction. Most of the historic protected areas are located in District 1. We have managed to stop many illegal construction sites and we will not allow the real estate mafia to take over the city, no matter how much money they throw at media trusts to intimidate us or threaten us,” the mayor added.

Clotilde Armand cited the green area in front of the Athenaeum as an example.

• “There is a small park in front of the Romanian Athenaeum. Such green spaces were also in the yard of the PNL and PSD Sector 1 headquarters. In all cases, we are talking about protected historical areas. Only a miracle prevented the appearance of a building in the yard of the Romanian Athenaeum and concrete this green area. We fought and will fight together with the Mayor of the capital and public organizations to preserve green areas and buildings of architectural heritage,” the mayor said.

Bucharest Mayor Nikušor Dan said on Sunday during a press conference that Prefect Toni Grebla intends to challenge the town planning rules of the entire historic part of the capital in court on Monday.

This would mean, the mayor noted, that within a year or two “we will no longer have urban planning rules for the historical territory of the Bucharest municipality.” Also, according to Nikusor Dan, in this context, all authorization projects should resume the procedure at the level of the urban planning certificate.
