The third municipal firm, whose manager was replaced by the new majority DPS-VMRO-BZNS, became VKTV. The previous manager Eng. Ivan Puknev was removed from office without the point being considered by the committees, but with the power of 16 votes in favor. Already during the discussion of the agenda, Boris Golomehov from Green Bulgaria announced that he was against the dismissal of the manager of VKTV and asked how long the bosses of municipal companies will change for political reasons. He reminded that every game has rules and they must be observed because unfair play is not tolerated anywhere. Eng. Puknev was selected by competition (in 2006, when he was an advisor from the BZNS - ed.), the term of his management contract has not expired, no reference to the state of the company has been given. Perhaps the uniforms of Stroycom employees will now have to say "VMRO", "Sports Properties and Markets" BZNS and "VKTV" - DPS, B said. Golomekhov. I do not deny the right of the majority to change governors, this is a practice at national and local level, but the question is how, Ek said. Cafferina. As a legislative body, the Municipal Council should respect laws and procedures, not violate them. She urged the councillors not to be enemies because this way the municipality will not go ahead and highlighted the specific violations of the legal procedure with the requested release of Ivan Puknev. As a motive for the change of the manager, the councilor Ali Marekov from the MRF pointed out the problems with water supply in the villages and that in accidents in Velingrad is reacting quickly, and in the area people wait sometimes for weeks. These are serious motives, they should have been discussed in the committees and with Mr. Puknev, said Dr. Cheshmedzhiev from GERB. Chairman M. Dzhambaz announced that Ivan Puknev was on sick leave and proceeded to a roll call vote on his release, which was supported by the majority. After the procedure, Sofia Klyuchkova, chairman of the Citizens' Initiative Committee "Let's Work for Velingrad", asked who are the biggest debtors of VKTV, and B. Golomehov announced that their names are listed in a letter addressed also to the chairman of the Municipal Council. The reference is important in order to track whether the new governor will remove names of debtors from it, Ek said. Cafferina. Asked by the media at the subsequent press conference, however, the chairmanship of the Municipal Council announced that it did not have such a letter. An eng. was elected as the manager of VKTV at the proposal of DPS. Ibrahim Buhov, who was mayor of St. Petka, assistant director of the school there, also worked in ZMM-Velingrad.
