We also reported that the capital's leadership and the cabinet discussed the use of the funds due to Budapest on March 25 at the meeting of the Capital's Public Development Council. After that, the mayor noted on his social media page that he considers the agreement to be valid if the Orbán government issues an official document about it.
He added: I believe it when I see it.
As it turned out, all the details of the agreement were published in the Official Gazette on March 31.
But KARIGERI is restless, no matter what, the main thing is to be able to bind. The HUF 3,000 billion EU funds, which were also recorded in writing, are not enough, and now they are floundering because of the Városliget.
On the day of the publication of the written document, he wrote an open letter to Minister Gergely Gulyás , in which he and his deputy complain that another construction project started in the City Park without their knowledge . They object to the fact that a hot air balloon landing field and restaurant would be built in the area demarcated as Mimóza Hill according to a visual plan.
At the end of the long letter, they ask the minister to take action, but immediately: Please take action, or we will take action. We hope this is quite clear and straightforward.
Gergely Gulyás responded to the open letter on his social media page, which, among other things, states:
"Within the framework of the urban park development, we will demolish the derelict former FőKERT site building, which disfigures the park, covered with graffiti, and in its place we will create more than 1,500 square meters of new green space, and the former popular attraction of the Liget, the Balloon lookout, which dates back more than a hundred years, will return there is also a cafe, which takes up only 120 square meters. A huge beer tent stood here for years, which we dismantled. The cafe occupies a fraction of this area.”
