The public bidding call for a bicycle purchase subvention was announced today and will be open for 15 days, ending on February 8th, according to the statement from the Capital. "The capital has started the project 'Podgorica on two wheels', within which it will subsidize the purchase of bicycles for citizens. The 2019 budget envisages funds in the amount of 10,000 euros to be subsidized for 50% of the price of the bicycle, or up to a hundred euros," the Deputy Mayor Sladjana Vujacic stated at the start of the project.
She reminded that the procedure starts with citizens' registration, so the first 50 citizens applying and submitting the application for the project, with a copy of the ID card and a pre-invoice with a precise specification will be considered as potential recipients of subventions.
"Once the committee determines which citizens are the recipients of the subsidy, they will have to provide additional documentation, which implies proof on the place of residence, because the beneficiaries of the subsidy must be residents of the capital and that within one family only one member can be a subsidy user," Vujačić said.
She emphasized that the signing of a contract with the Capital would follow in which they will regulate mutual rights and obligations. Also, an integral part of the contract will be the evaluation clause, as the aim is to make the evaluation of the project after six months in order to highlight its further justification and existence. "There will be a register of serial numbers of subsidized bicycles that will be delivered to the Police Administration to prevent all possible abuses and provide a quick and efficient response in the event of their theft," concluded Vujačic.
After signing the contract and buying the bicycles, citizens must provide the invoice with a precise specification and a fiscal bill and 15 days after the delivery of the same the funds will be paid into their bank account.
The Capital thanked the partners from the organization Biciklo.me for providing support during the project implementation as well as on the assistance offered for its evaluation.
