Centar Municipality parking fee dispute

Overview

Political tension has emerged in the Centar Municipality regarding recent increases in parking fees. The VMRO-DPMNE party has demanded a return to previous pricing structures, criticizing the current SDS-led administration and Mayor Gerasimovski.

Filip Gjorgiev, secretary of the Centar municipal committee, dismissed claims that the price changes were decided solely by the POC Management Board, calling such explanations a “manipulation of citizens.”

Councilor Diana Ristovska Dodevski further criticized the ruling SDS and Levica coalition for rejecting initiatives to reduce costs. She argued that the zonal parking system forces residents to pay what amounts to “rent” for the sidewalks and streets in front of their own homes. Ristovska Dodevski accused the administration of prioritizing revenue collection for political purposes ahead of upcoming local elections.
