Residents of Borov submitted 1000 signatures against Tomašević's 'affordable' apartments: 'We are going forward courageously'

Residents of Borovje have collected over 1,000 signatures opposing the construction of 600 subsidized apartments by Tomislav Tomašević's administration. The residents argue that the project would lead to concrete development in their already overcrowded neighborhood and create chaos. They delivered the signatures to the City of Zagreb, expressing confidence in continuing their efforts. Tomašević defended the project during a press conference, stating it was part of his administration’s key promises and had been planned for years on land designated for residential development. He emphasized that the project is not new and that the city owns the land, which has always been intended for housing. While acknowledging concerns about the scale of the project, he noted similar developments in other areas like Sveti Križ and Podbrežje, where there were no objections. The project is still under public review as part of the new Urbanistic Plan for Borovje – South Zone.
