Finalised auction of municipal plots in the area of Chechnya South

The municipality of Ravne na Koroškem concluded its third auction for municipal plots in the area of the emerging settlement Čečovje jug on Wednesday. One plot was sold during the auction, which is part of a total of 30 plots designated for individual house construction. To date, the municipality has sold 15 plots through auctions. While heavy rainfall did not cause damage in the new settlement area, some parts of the municipality reported flooding due to meteorological water flow on Tuesday afternoon. The area of Čečovje jug, currently being communally managed by the municipality, did not suffer any damage according to information from the contractor, stated Vlasta Kupljen, director of the municipal administration, to STA today. “Due to the runoff of water with mud, it is necessary to clean the culverts on the public road leading to Čečovje,” she added. “This was ordered by the municipality late Tuesday afternoon to the road maintenance contractor.” Meanwhile, the new auction for municipal plots in the developing settlement of Čečovje jug took place on Wednesday morning. The municipality sold plot B8, measuring 672 square meters, at the asking price of €19,488 excluding VAT. The plots available for sale in this round ranged in size from approximately 500 to 700 square meters, with an asking price of €29 per square meter excluding VAT. After today’s auction, seven plots remain unsold in municipal ownership and are expected to be put up for sale in future procedures. From the beginning of the plot-selling process in the Čečovje jug area, eight plots have remained in municipal ownership, for which the municipality is preparing plans for the construction of smaller two-bedroom houses intended for rental to young people at favorable terms. The auction process for the plots in the Čečovje jug area began earlier this year as part of the municipality's efforts to develop the new residential zone. The plots vary in size and location within the settlement, offering opportunities for both individual home building and potential rental housing developments. The municipality has been actively managing the area, ensuring infrastructure improvements and addressing environmental concerns such as drainage and erosion caused by recent weather conditions. The emergence of Čečovje jug represents a strategic move by the municipality to expand its residential capacity and provide affordable housing options. The project includes both private and communal spaces designed to accommodate different types of housing needs. As the settlement continues to take shape, further developments are anticipated, including additional infrastructure projects and community services aimed at supporting residents. The municipality has emphasized the importance of sustainable development and responsible land use in the planning of Čečovje jug. This includes measures to mitigate the impact of extreme weather events, such as the heavy rainfall that affected parts of the municipality recently. These efforts align with broader regional goals to enhance resilience against climate-related challenges while promoting economic growth and improved living standards for local residents. The ongoing auction process highlights the dynamic nature of the real estate market in the area, with fluctuating demand and competitive bidding influencing the pace of sales. The remaining plots in municipal ownership will likely be subject to further marketing and promotional activities to attract potential buyers. As the settlement progresses, the municipality remains committed to maintaining transparency and efficiency in its administrative processes, ensuring that all stakeholders are informed about upcoming developments and opportunities.
