In the midst of \u201cDunes Gate 2\u201d, Regional Development Minister Lilyana Pavlova threw the idea of \u201ceco-concession\u201d of the beaches “Coral” and “Dolphin”. The Ministry had been mulling such a concession, but as documentation was not ready, it could not be done until next year. And this year, it had to find a tenant for the season. Even then the Minister lied, not once, but twice. The order she issued on April 8, 2015 for conducting a sealed bid auction for the lease of \u201cCoral\u201d beach, with a starting bid price 51,077 levs without VAT, is for a period of five years, not one, as she said. The decision for an eco-concession procedure was published in the State Gazette on April 28.<\/p>\n
The procedure for the eco-concession, however, was formally concluded in October 2014. All necessary documents were prepared during the term in office of caretaker Minister Ekaterina Zechariah and were expected to be tabled in the Council of Ministers. And this is the second lie of Lilyana Pavlova \u2013 dragging things to slow down the eco-concession to the max. If it wasn\u2019t for the scandal with pouring concrete on the camping site \u201cYug\u201d (South), it might have never seen the light of day. Because the goal is not to preserve the beach, but to allow \u201cour people\u201d to profit from it or for<\/p>\n
Thugs to slate money for their political protectors<\/strong><\/p>\n It is sufficient to see who the candidates are – Sava Choroleev, the person who in 2003, in tandem with Dimitar Nikolov, organized the criminal privatization of 130 decares from \u201cCoral\u201d, after a corrupt political agreement with the \u201cred\u201d (from the Bulgarian Socialist Party, BSP \u2013 editor\u2019s note) Mayor Petko Arnaudov. The same owns the concession of the largest Bulgarian sea resort Sunny Beach and its largest casino.<\/p>\n His rival is Vladimir Kisiov from ASPI Group that built a huge vacation complex, next to the one of convicted drug lord \u201cBrendo\u201d on “Oasis” and another, just as huge, on “Nestinarka”. Looking at old maps on can see that it was built directly on the dunes. The company also has hotels in Sunny Beach, and previously held the concessions for the beaches “Nestinarka” and “Arapya”. The brothers demonstrate excellent relations with their rival – Choroleev, as seen at the round table on protected areas on the sea coast, organized by MEW at the height of the last “Dunes Gate” scandal.<\/p>\n So far, the concession is on hold, as the tender procedure has been appealed in Court. The Ministry of Regional Development, however, has the will to circumvent the appeal through pre-implementation. The motive is that “Coral” cannot be left unguarded and without tenant. About 83 beaches may be left without a tenant, and just “Coral” cannot. Perhaps because there are the \u201cright\u201d candidates with experience in thug-appropriation of the coastline, with stated construction interests in the region, and most of all with stable political connections in the government.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
