Four centuries later, Glamoč remains in the corner, and the municipality, which had many development opportunities and potentials, does not function well in certain situations that are particularly important for the population.

Due to fires, three family houses burned down in this municipality just last year. However, Glamoč does not have a fire brigade that could come to the aid of the population.

Only one bidder for the fire truck

Nevertheless, a few months ago, the municipal administration entered the process of procuring a used fire truck.

Namely, on October 28, 2022, Glamoč issued a tender for the procurement of a fire truck. The procurement notice stated that they were looking for a used fire truck for the needs of the Civil Protection and Firefighting Service of the Municipality of Glamoč, and it was planned to allocate 150,000 KM without VAT for this procurement.

The tender documentation accompanying the procurement notice stated that they were looking for a vehicle that is a maximum of 15 years old (2007) and has a maximum mileage of 150,000 kilometres. It also specified that the vehicle must have a water tank with a minimum capacity of 2,500 litres, among other requirements.

Only one company, “RIF POST” D.O.O. from Živinice, responded to the mentioned invitation with a single offer priced at 140,000 KM, and the contract was awarded to that company.

Although the tender documentation stated that the vehicle must be free of visible damages, Glamoč purchased a fire truck, specifically a “Volvo” brand, with several visible and specific traces of damage.

In fact, a few months earlier, an advertisement for the sale of a “Volvo” fire truck with identical physical defects and damages was active on the online marketplace https://machineryline.info/, which specialized in the procurement of vehicles for industry and industrial equipment. However, the advertised price for that truck was 24,900 euros.

The truck from the mentioned marketplace, “Volvo” FL-240, has visible damages on the front left side near the headlight, as well as a scraped front left fender, identical to the truck that was purchased for the needs of the Glamoč Municipality.

Interestingly, the mentioned truck in the marketplace listing includes a technical specification of a tank capacity of 1,600 litres.

In the tender documentation, Glamoč requested a tank capacity of 2,800 litres.

At the same time as the truck procurement in Glamoč, the listing for the mentioned Volvo truck was also removed from the marketplace, indicating that the truck had been sold.

Tomislav Turnsek, the contact person for “Linemedia,” the publisher of the mentioned marketplace, responded to our inquiry stating that he cannot provide precise information about the seller of the mentioned vehicle or the sale price.

“As one of the leading advertising platforms, we advertise a significant number of vehicles of various types and purposes from all over the world.

For a more specific inquiry, we would need the ad number, and its ID (as stated in the ad specifications), in order to accurately determine which ad is being referred to.

We would also like to emphasize that the data we have regarding the ad is the information provided by the advertiser and is included in the ad description.

Additional information, such as traffic domain, IP address, and the like, is only provided upon request from the police or other authorized bodies. Typically, this is done in cases of suspected fraud or attempted fraud”, the response states.

Same supplier for the garbage truck as well

By the way, in the Capital Investment Plan for 2022, Glamoč allocated only 100,000 KM for the procurement of a fire truck and a garbage truck for the Public Utility Company “Komunalac.” According to Gerila's information, this was also the budgeted amount in the public procurement plan.

During the past year, the municipality of Glamoč procured a garbage truck for the needs of the Public Utility Company “Komunalac.” It's worth mentioning that this public company had its accounts blocked for years, operated with significant debts, and was declared bankrupt in 2022.

The municipality of Glamoč secured funds in the amount of 40,000 KM for the procurement of the vehicle through the Environmental Protection Fund. In February 2022, they issued a tender for the purchase of a garbage truck.

However, even though they were granted only 40,000 KM as a grant, Glamoč, through the public procurement process, sought a truck worth 49,990 KM. The same company, “RIF POST” D.O.O. from Živinice, was the only bidder again, with a price of 50,000 KM.

By the way, the primary activity of the mentioned company is construction works, and in the past few years, when it comes to procurements for institutions and public companies, they have only carried out vehicle procurement in two cases – both for the Municipality of Glamoč. In these two procurements alone, the municipality spent over 220,000 KM including VAT, even though the procurement plan had allocated only 100,000 KM for this purpose.

The mayor of Glamoč, Nebojša Radivojša, refused to answer our calls. Initially, he answered the phone, told us to call him later, and then stopped responding to our calls.

Marko Damjanović, the president of the Municipal Council, told Gerila that the budget for 2022 included the procurement of vehicles and that the additional funds were covered from the surplus remaining in the budget.

“We planned the procurement of those vehicles in the budget. We had a decision on the distribution of surpluses from previous years, where we planned an additional 100,000 marks for these purposes. There is a separate decision on the allocation of funds from that surplus. Both vehicles, as far as I know, have been procured”, said Damjanović.

However, Damjanović says that he is not initially aware of whether Glamoč made any changes to the Public Procurement Plan.

“You will have to ask the mayor and Mr Boris Lukajić, who is directly involved in public procurement. I am not aware of that fact because we have not yet received the budget execution report for 2022. So, those things are not known to me formally”, says Damjanović.

When asked about the procurement processes for the two trucks, Damjanović acknowledges that he is aware of them but personally does not bear responsibility for those procurements.

“At the previous session of the Municipal Council, one of the councillors raised that question, and he believes that the procurement was not transparent in a certain way. It involves public funds, and nothing can be hidden. If anything was done outside the rules, it went beyond me personally, as a councillor and as the president of the Council”, Damjanović told Gerila, mentioning the name of opposition councillor Nikola Srdić as the person who raised the most criticism regarding the procurement of the fire truck.

On the other hand, Srdić, in an interview with Gerila, says that he also received information that the mentioned vehicle was on the online marketplace and that the municipal administration never changed the procurement plan nor adjusted the number of funds for those two vehicles through a budget rebalance.

“So, in the budget, we have an item for motor vehicle procurement for 100,000 KM. In the budget rebalance that took place on November 29, 2022, that was not changed, and they officially procured the vehicle a few days before New Year for 140,000 KM, including VAT, it's around 164,000 KM. When we include the procurement of the garbage truck, which was 57,330 KM including VAT, we reach a total of 221,000 KM, which is 120,000 KM more than planned”, says Srdić, noting that, according to his information, the procurement value of the truck is also questionable because the mentioned truck has very limited equipment and capacity.

The municipality without firefighters, until recently also without employees with fire safety certificates

Srdić also adds that he is personally well aware of the issue when it comes to firefighting since, as a long-time employee in the Forestry Service, he was involved in negotiations for the establishment of a fire department in Glamoč.

“I personally, through a mutual agreement, established the Volunteer Fire Department during a meeting we had in 2017. Present at that meeting were the director of the Cantonal Civil Protection Administration, representatives of the Municipality of Glamoč, including the mayor himself, the director of the Forestry Service, representatives of the Forestry Economic Society, and the guys who work in these positions. So, there were eight or nine of us. We believed that we needed to improve firefighting in Glamoč. Since the Civil Protection Administration, by law, is responsible for fire extinguishing and managing firefighting operations, we needed to establish a fire department that would be part of the Civil Protection Administration, where the municipality would declare that fire department and cover the costs of firefighting. That is the simplest way, and those were the recommendations of the director of the Cantonal Civil Protection”, says Srdić.

However, according to his words, the municipal leadership betrayed that agreement, and the information about it was presented to the council members in an incomplete form and was not accepted.

He says that now it's unclear who will operate the fire truck and who will extinguish fires because until recently, no employee in the municipality had a certificate indicating they had completed fire protection training. However, in the past month, a few municipal security guards have undergone training.

The damage to the purchased fire truck for the Municipality of Glamoč is identical to the damage in the advertisement.

“Their vision is to have security guards and municipal porters drive it. I don't see any other possibility, except maybe forming a brigade within the Civil Protection Administration that would operate it with permanent employees. No employee in the municipality has the certification. And the Municipality did not participate in any training calls. Last summer, training was conducted, and we registered four candidates from Glamoč, but none of them were municipal employees. The Cantonal Civil Protection Administration had funding to pay for only one participant. I mentioned this at the municipality because the exam cost 400 marks per person. The mayor transferred the missing funds to the account of the Volunteer Fire Department Association, and then we had the funds for the other three”, Srdić adds.

Marko Damjanović also confirms that no employee of the Municipality of Glamoč has had the mentioned certifications so far.

“I've been in the Municipality for a long time, and I don't think anyone has such a certificate. I don't know if other municipalities have them. We have the Civil Protection Service, and some ten years ago, we made a decision to establish a professional fire brigade that was never realized. It's all in some formal-legal preparation, and the deputy mayor was hired last year through a regular procedure, and I'm aware that such individuals still don't have the certifications. However, as a municipality, we are preparing the necessary material and technical resources to train those individuals who will be professionally responsible, and they will obtain the certifications”, says Damjanović.

The organization chart was changed due to the elections

On the other hand, Nikola Srdić says that there were political disagreements during the appointment of the Assistant Chief for Civil Protection, which led to the amendment of the internal job classification regulations.

“When the competition for the position of the head of the Civil Protection Department was announced, certain items were removed from the job classification. Previously, the required qualification was listed as a degree in Defense and Protection. There was a person who worked in Civil Protection during the time when Nebojša Radivojša was a candidate for the municipality mayor, and this Mile Dokić also ran as an independent candidate in the elections. This person had a degree in Defense and Protection. When Radivojša won, he immediately terminated his employment. Now there is a legal process ongoing. In order to prevent this person from appearing in the competition, the internal job classification regulations were changed. They removed Defense and Protection and added History to enable the appointment of this person who is affiliated with the SDA”, adds Srdić.

The mentioned Mile Dokić also says that he is convinced that he was fired solely because of the elections.

“I was employed in the municipality without a competition, and I worked there for eight years, but I was the only one with a degree in National Defense and Civil Protection. Later, the Agency for Public Service announced a competition. When they did, I applied and scored 90 out of 100 points, while my opponent had 60 points. However, they did not follow the legal procedure, and that's the main point. They hired him instead. The man had never worked in the field. If he had performed better in the testing, I wouldn't have complained, but we all know it's politics. A commission was supposed to be formed for the interview, but it wasn't because the chief conducted the interview himself and gave this person a higher score”, says Dokić.

He also mentioned that he eventually sued the Municipality of Glamoč, but in a court in Sarajevo to avoid the Municipal Court and political pressure, although he doesn't have high hopes for any improvement due to the political situation.

“I haven't been in the municipality for three years, but you can come here and see the misery and destitution for yourself”, Dokić concluded.

Četiri vijeka kasnije Glamoč je i dalje ostao u kutu, a opština koja je imala mnogo razvojnih mogućnosti i potencijala, ne funkcioniše kada je riječ o pojedinim situacijama, koje su posebno bitne za stanovništvo.

Zbog požara, u ovoj opštini su samo u prošloj godini izgorile tri porodične kuće. Međutim, u Glamoču ne postoji vatrogasna jedinica koja bi tom stanovništvu mogla da pritekne u pomoć.

Samo jedan ponuđač za vatrogasno vozilo

Ipak, prije nekoliko mjeseci, opštinska administracija je ušla u proceduru nabavke polovnog vatrogasnog vozila.

Naime, 28.10.2022. Glamoč je raspisao tender za nabavku vagtrogasnog vozila. U obavještenju u nabavci navedeno je da traže korišteno vatrogasno vozilo za potrebe Službe civilne zaštite i vatrogastva Opštine Glamoč, a planirano je da se za ovu nabaku izdvoji 150.000 KM bez PDV-a.

U tenderskoj dokumentaciji koja je pratila obavještenje o nabavci navodi se da traže vozilo koje je staro maksimalno 15 godina (2007. godina) i sa maksimalno pređenih 150.000 kilometara, te da, između ostalog, u vozilo mora biti ugrađen spremnik vode, zapremine min. 2.500l.

Na pomenuti poziv se javilo samo jedno preduzeće – “RIF POST” DOO iz Živinica, sa samo jednom ponudom, sa cijenom od 140.000 KM, te je pomenutoj firmi dodijeljen posao.

Iako je u tenderskoj dokumentaciji navedeno da vozilo mora biti bez vidljivih oštećenja, Glamoč je kupio vatrogasno vozilo “Volvo”sa nekoliko vidljivih tragova, veoma specifičnih.

Naime, nekoliko mjeseci ranije putem online oglasnika https://machineryline.info/ specijalizovanog za nabavku vozila za privredu kao i industrijsku opremu, bio je aktivan oglas za prodaju vatrogasnog kamiona marke “Volvo”, sa identičnim fizičkim nedostacima i oštećenjima, kao i kamion koji je nabavljen za potrebe Opštine Glamoč, ali sa cijenom od 24.900 evra.

Kamion iz pomenutog oglasnika “Volvo” FL-240 ima fizička oštećenja koja su vidljiva na prednjoj lijevoj strani kod fara, kao i oguljen prednji lijevi blatobran, identično kao i kamion koji je nabavljen za potrebe Opštine Glamoč.

Ono što je zanimljivo, pomenuti kamion sa oglasnika među tehničkim kapacitetima navodi i cisternu kapaciteta od 1.600 litara.

Tenderskom dokumentacijom Glamoč je tražio cisternu od 2.800 litara.

Isto tako, istovremeno sa nabavkom kamiona u Glamoču, sa oglasnika je povučen i oglas za pomenuti Volvo, to jeste obavještenje da je kamion prodat.

Tomislav Turnsek, kontakt osoba preduzeća “Linemedia”, koja je izdavač pomenutog oglasnika, na naš upit je poslao odgovor u kojem navodi da ne može dati precizne informacije ko je prodavac pomenutog vozila i za koliko novca je vozilo prodato.

“Kao jedna od vodećih oglasnih platformi, oglašavamo značajan broj vozila različitih vrsta i namjene iz cijeloga svijeta.

Za konkretniji upit trebali bi imati broj oglasa, njegov ID (naveden u specifikaciji oglasa ), kako bi smo mogli tačno utvrditi o kojem je oglasu riječ.

Takođe, želimo naglasiti kako su podaci iz oglasa, a koje mi imamo, informacije koje daje sam oglašivač i nalaze se u opisu oglasa.

Dodatne informacije, poput domene prometa, IP-a i slično, dajemo jedino na zahtjev policije ili drugog ovlaštenog tijela. U pravilu, kada se sumnja na prijevaru ili pokusaj prijevare”, navodi se u odgovoru.

Isti dobavljač i za kamion za odvoz smeća

Inače, Planom kapitalnih investicija za 2022. godinu Glamoč je planirao za nabavku vatrogasnog vozila, kao i kamiona za JP Komunalac samo 100.000 KM, a prema saznanjima Gerile tolika je stavka bila i u planu javnih nabavki.

Tokom protekle godine, opština Glamoč je nabavila i vozilo za odvoz smeća, to jeste kamiona za potrebe JP Komunalac. Inače, pomenuto javno preduzeće već godinama je imalo blokirane račune, poslovalo je sa velikim dugovima, te je tokom 2022. godine u njemu proglašen stečaj.

Sredstva u vrijednosti od 40.000 KM za nabavku vozila Opština Glamoč je obezbijedila putem Fonda za zaštitu okoliša, te su u februaru 2022. godine raspisali tender za nabavku kamiona za odvoz smeća.

Ipak, iako im je odobeno samo 40.000 KM kroz grant, Glamoč je kroz postupak javne nabavke tražio kamion u vrijednosti od 49.990 KM, a kao jedini ponuđač ponovo se javila ista firma – “RIF POST” DOO iz Živinica, sa cijenom od 50.000 KM.

Inače, osnovna djelatnost pomenute firme je izvođenje građevinskih radova, a tokom posljednjih nekoliko godina, kada je riječ o nabavkama za institucije i javna preduzeća, samo su u dva slučaja radili nabavku vozila – oba za Opštinu Glamoč, koja je u samo te dvije nabavke potrošila više od 220.000 KM zajedno sa PDV-om, iako je Planom nabavki za ovu svrhu bilo određeno samo 100.000 KM.

Načelnik Oštine Glamoč Nebojša Radivojša nije htio da odgovori na naše pozive. On se prvobitno javio na telefon, rekao da ga kasnije zovnemo, a onda se više nije javljao na naše pozive.

Predsjednik Opštinskog vijeća Marko Damjanović kaže za Gerilu da je Budžetom za 2022. planirana nabavka vozila, a da je razlika u novcu namirena od viška sredstava koja su ostala u budžetu.

Mi smo planirali budžetom nabavku tih vozila.

„Imali smo odluku o raspodjeli suficita iz ranijih godina gdje smo planirali još 100 hiljada maraka za te namjere. Ima posebna odluka o raspodjeli sredstava iz tog suficita. Oba vozila su, koliko znam nabavljena“, kaže Damjanović.

Ipak, kaže da mu na prvu nije poznato da li je Glamoč radio izmjenu Plana javnih nabavki.

„To ćete morati tražiti od načelnika i gospodina Borisa Lukajića koji radi direktno na javnim nabavkama. Meni nije poznata ta činjenica jer nismo imali još izvještaj o izvršenju proračuna/budžeta za 2022. Te stvari mi dakle u formalnom dijelu nisu poznate“, kaže Damjanović.

Nakon našeg pitanja o procesima nabavki dva kamiona, Damjanović kaže da mu je poznato ali da on lično nema odgovornost za te nabavke.

„Na prošloj sjednici opštinskog Vijeća jedan od vijećnika je postavio to pitanje i on smatra da ta nabavka na određeni način nije transparentna. Radi se o javnom novcu i ne može biti ništa sakriveno. Ako je išta rađeno van pravila, to je išlo mimo mene osobno, kao vijećnika, ali i kao predsjednika Vijeća“, izjavio je Damjanović za Gerilu, te spomenuo i ime vijećnika opozicionog SNS-a, Nikolu Srdića, kao osobu koja je iznijela najviše kritika na nabavku vatrogasnog vozila.

S druge strane, Srdić u razgovoru za Gerilu kaže da je i on dobio informaciju da je pomenuto vozilo bilo na pomenutom onlajn oglasniku, te da opštinska administracija nikada nije mijenjala ni plan nabavki niti je rebalansom budžeta izmijenjena količina sredstva za ta dva vozila.

„Dakle, u budžetu imamo stavku nabavka motornog vozila 100.000 KM. Rebalansom budžeta koji je bio 29.11.2022. to nije promijenjeno, a vozilo su zvanično nabavili par dana prije Nove godine za 140.000 KM, sa PDV-om je oko 164.000 KM. Kad u to ubrojimo i nabavku kamiona za odvoz smeća koja je sa PDV-om bila 57.330 KM, dođemo do cifre od 221 hiljadu KM, dakle 120.000 KM više nego što je planirano“, kaže Srdić, uz napomenu da je i prema njegovim informacijama sporna nabavna vrijednost kamiona jer pomenuti kamion ima veoma skromnu opremu i kapacitet.

Opština bez vatrogasaca, donedavno i bez radnika sa protivpožarnim sertifikatom

Dodaje Srdić i da je on lično dobro upoznat sa problemom kada je riječ o vatrogastvu, s obzirom da je kao dugogodišnji radnik u Šumariji bio uključen i u pregovore za osnivanje vatrogasnog društva u Glamoču.

„Ja sam osnovao, po nekom zajedničkom dogovoru, kada smo imali jedan sastanak 2017. godine Dobrovoljno vatrogasno društvo. Na tom sastanku su bili prisutni direktor Kantonalne uprave Civilne zaštite, predstavnici Opštine Glamoč, znači načelnik direktno, direktor Šumarije, Službe Šumskog gospodarskog društva, momci koji rade na tim poslovima. Dakle, bilo nas je osam ili devet. Smatrali smo da treba da unaprijedimo vatrogastvo u Glamoču. Pošto je Civilna zaštita, po zakonu, nosilac aktivnosti gašenja požara i rukovodi gašenjem požara, potrebno je da osnujemo jedno vatrogasno društvo koje će biti u sklopu Civilne zaštite, gdje bi opština trebala da proglasi taj DVD i koja bi izmirivala troškove gašenja. To je najjednostavniji put  i to su i preporuke direktora kantonalne Civilne zaštite“, govori Srdić.

Ipak, prema njegovim riječima, opštinsko rukovodstvo je izigralo taj dogovor, pa je Informacija o tome u nekompletnoj formi došla pred vijećnike, te nije prihvaćena.

Kaže da je sad i nejasno ko će upravljati vatrogasnim kamionom, kao i ko će gasiti požare, jer do skora nijedan radnik u opštini nije imao sertifikat da je položio protivpožarnu zaštitu, ali u prethodnih mjesec dana obuku je prošlo par opštinskih portira.

„Njihova vizija je da to voze stražari – portiri iz Opštine. Ja ne vidim nikakvu drugu mogućnost, eventualno da unutar Civilne zaštite formiraju jednu brigadu koja bi vozila to, koji bi bili stalno zaposleni. Nijedan radnik iz opštine nema sertifikat. I Opština nije učestvovala ni na jednom pozivu za obuku. Ljetos je vršena obuka i prijavili smo četiri kandidata iz Glamoča, ali nijedan od njih nije radnik u opštini. Kantonalna uprava Civilne zaštite je imala novca za uplatu samo za jednog polaznika. Ja sam to rekao u opštini pošto je ispit koštao 400 maraka po osobi. Načelnik je prebacio nedostajuća sredstva na račun udruženja Dobrovoljnog vatrogasnog društva i imali smo onda sredstva za ostalu trojicu“, dodaje Srdić.

Da nijedan zaposlenik opštine Glamoč do sada nije imao pomenute sertifikate, kaže i Marko Damjanović.

„Dugo sam u Opštini i mislim da takav sesrtifikat niko nema. Ne znam da li druge opštine imaju. Mi imamo Službu civilne zaštite i nekada davno, prije desetak godina smo donijeli odluku o pokretanju profesionalne vatrogasne jedinice koja nikada nije napravljena. To je sve u nekoj formalnoj-pravnoj pripremi i pomoćnik načelnika je prošle godine u nekoj redovnoj proceduri primljen i poznato mi je da takve osobe još nemaju, ali u određenim elementima kao općina pripremamo materijalno-tehnička sredstva da te ljude koji će biti zaduženi profesionalno, da ih obučimo i da će imati te sertifikate“, kaže Damjanović.

Zbog izbora promijenjena sistematizacija

S druge strane, Nikola Srdić kaže da je prilikom imenovanja pomoćnika načelnika za Civilnu zaštitu došlo do političkih nesuglasica, te je zbog toga izmijenjen i unutrašnji pravilnik o sistematizaciji radnih mjesta.

„Kad je raspisivan taj konkurs za prijem načelnika odjeljenja Civilne zaštite izbačene su neke stavke iz sistematizacije. Prije je kao potrebna kvalifikacija, to jeste zanimanje, prvo stajao Fakultet odbrane i zaštite. Bio je čovjek koji je radio u Civilnoj zaštiti u vrijeme kada je Nebojša Radivojša bio kandidat za načelnika Opštine, a i taj Mile Dokić se prijavio na izbore kao nezavisni kandidat. Čovjek imao završen Fakultet odbrane i zaštite. I Radivojša kad je pobijedio, odmah mu je dao otkaz. Sad je tu sudski proces. Da se ovaj ne bi pojavio na konkursu, izmjenjen je Pravilnik o unutrašnjoj sistematizaciji. Izbacili su odbranu i zaštitu, ubacili istoriju da bi mogao omogućiti ovom čovjeku koji je kadar SDA“, dodaje Srdić.

Pomenuti Mile Dokić kaže da je takođe i on ubijeđen da je otkaz dobio samo zbog izbora.

„Ja sam bio primljen da radim u opštini i to bez konkursa i tako sam radio osam godina, ali sam jedini imao završen taj Fakultet narodne odbrane i civilne zaštite. Kasnije je Agencija za državnu službu raspisala konkurs. Kad su oni to raspisali ja sam se prijavio i od mogućih 100 imao 90, a moj protivkandidat je imao 60 bodova. Međutim, oni nisu ispoštovali zakonsku proceduru i u tome je najveći fazon. Onda su primili njega. Čovjek nikada nije ni radio u struci. Da je bio bolji na testiranju, ja se ne bih ni žalio, ali zna se da je politika. Trebalo je da se formira komisija za taj intervju, ali nije jer je načelnik sam vodio intervju i na intervjuu dao bolju ocjenu tom čovjeku“, govori Dokić.

Kako je rekao, zbog svega je na kraju i tužio Opštinu Glamoč, ali u sudu u Sarajevu, da bi izbjegao Opštinski sud i političke pritiske, ali i da se zbog političkih prilika ne nada da će se išta popraviti.

„Ja već tri godine nisam u Opštini, ali vi možete doći ovdje da vidite i snimite jad i bijedu“, zaključio je Dokić.
