Regional Housing Program – Keys to 25 apartments handed over to Čačak

The apartments were built within the ninth sub-project of the Regional Housing Program and are intended for refugee families from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia.

"You have been waiting for this moment for a long time, but I can proudly point out that as of today you have your home in Čačak and that you have solved one of the most important life issues, the housing issue. We are at the very end of the project implementation and when it comes to the component of apartment construction, we are expecting to move in for another 444 beneficiary families in Novi Sad, Vrnjačka Banja, Arandjelovac, Vrbas, Belgrade, Ovča, Pećinci and Pančevo," said the Director of the Public Sector Projects Implementation Unit, Dušan Kovačević.
