Gratiesti authorities have not granted any plot of land on which to build private houses for about five years. The mayor of the Chisinau municipality’s village of Gratiesti Valentina Patras has told Info-Prim Neo that the there is no more land left that could be allocated for building houses on. “There are many applications, but there is no land,” said Valentina Patras. According to the cited source, over 500 applications for lots filed by residents of the village now wait to be dealt with. The low migration from this settlement is a factor that contributes to higher demand for land, the mayor said. Valentina Patras stated that a lot of young people got married in the past few years and remained in Gratiesti to live. They want to build houses in the settlement where they were born. The mayor considers that the Government should work out a draft law that would allow changing the purpose of some plots of land from agricultural land into land on which to build private constructions. According to the cited source, the procedure for granting plots of land should be simplified and reviewed. Valentina Patras said that they submitted numerous petitions to the Government, but no viable solution was found and the central public authorities offered no precise answer. The Local Gratiesti Council now works on an urbanity plan. Valentina Patras said that they want to transform the land from extravilan into land on which to build private constructions, especially private houses. Most of the suburban settlements of the municipality of Chisinau now face such a problem.
