Herceg Novi water supply crisis

Overview

Following severe water supply restrictions between September 7 and 16, the Herceg Novi Municipality Assembly held an emergency session to address the crisis. The assembly unanimously adopted conclusions calling for the Mayor’s office to establish an independent commission of experts to investigate the causes of the shortages.

Additionally, the assembly requested that the Mayor’s office work with the local water utility, ‘Vodovod i kanalizacija Herceg Novi’, to develop a financial plan and a set of measures before the 2027 budget is finalized. These steps are intended to ensure water supply stability and prevent future restrictions during the summer season. During debates, officials from the Regional Waterworks of the Montenegrin Coast expressed differing perspectives regarding the causes of the shortages and the utility of an independent commission.
