According to the organizers and residents who launched the initiative, merging the city with Elbasan would move services and decision-making farther away from the people of Cërrik. They say that retaining the municipality would guarantee more direct representation and administration closer to the community.
Signatures for the petition are expected to continue being collected in the coming days, while according to the organizers, the document will be sent not only to domestic institutions but also to international ones.
Administrative boundaries are not the only concern for the residents of Cërrik, who have said that the biggest problem is how public services will be provided. Cërrik has staged repeated protests in recent days.
Meanwhile, it should be recalled that public hearings have now also begun on this issue, which has become the most discussed matter of the past few weeks. This comes after the Socialist Party submitted to Parliament a draft proposing the merger of 15 municipalities.
