Inhabitants of “Bazhdaranë” neighborhood in Prizren, who for several years are being faced with water supply reductions, have received some explanations by the responsible officials of water supply utility “Hidroregjioni Jugor”. This meeting was held on Wednesday and facilitated by EC Ma Ndryshe, within the project “Inclusive City...”, funded by Olof Palme International Center (OPIC) that is supported by the Government of Sweden.

The meeting was held several weeks after the inhabitants of this neighborhood submitted the petition at the Prizren municipal public water utility “Hidroregjioni Jugor”, whereby they requested that this long lasting problem be finally resolved.   

The KRU “Hidroregjioni Jugor” officials explained the technical aspects of water reduction schedule for several apartment buildings in “Bazhdaranë” neighborhood and pointed out that after receiving the petition, they had joint meeting with Prizren municipal authorities aimed at addressing this issue. At the same time, they gave some details to the inhabitants on the short term and long term measures foreseen to be undertaken in resolving this issue.   

On the other hand, inhabitants requested that communication with KRU “Hidroregjioni Jugor” officials should continue.
