The placement of new street names in Northern Mitrovica has become a subject of local dispute, following the relocation of signage just one day after the initial naming of streets honoring figures such as Isa Boletini and Zoran Dindic. The controversy centers on the methodology and legality of the renaming process. Milan Radojević, the mayor of the municipality, has publicly deemed the street naming procedure illegal.
Conversely, Aida Ferati-Doli, the Deputy President of the Communal Assembly, maintained that the actions taken adhered to the decisions made by the relevant commission. The initial placement saw the streets named after the Albanian hero, Isa Boletini, and the former Serbian prime minister, Zoran Dindic, situated near one another. However, by Wednesday, April 3rd, reports indicated a significant change.
The signage for Isa Boletini and a street named after Zoran Gjingjiq were reportedly separated by several meters, contrary to their initial co-location. By Wednesday afternoon, the Ministry of Spatial Planning had not confirmed whether it possessed information regarding this specific relocation of street names. The discrepancy in placement has fueled debate over municipal authority and procedural compliance concerning public infrastructure naming.
The differing accounts from local officials highlight a divergence in views regarding the proper authorization and execution of these civic designations.
