Centar Municipality Barutana urban planning dispute

Overview

The Municipality of Centar initiated a public survey regarding the Draft Detailed Urban Plan (DUP) for the Barutana urban quarter. Mayor Goran Gerasimovski stated the initiative seeks to ensure transparent planning by allowing citizens to submit proposals and remarks between August 13 and September 14, 2026.

The opposition party Levica has challenged the survey, arguing it is a mere “legal formality” that lacks true decision-making power. The party has called for a local referendum instead, expressing concerns over the construction of 25 buildings on the slopes of Vodno and the opening of significant areas for new development.
