Bolesław Daszkiewicz: No regulations about removing signboards from private properties

The Supreme Administrative Court ordered to remove in Šalčininkai District signboards with street names in polish and lithuanian. Court’s decision is final and undisputed.

Court decided yesterday that presence of bilingual signboards is inconsistent with the law and obliged local government administratives to remove them.

Meanwhile, director of loval government administration in Šalčininkai District suggests that there are no law regulations determining removal of signboards from private properties in Lithuania.

He informed that local administration will try to convince residents to remove bilingual signboards from properties. But if it wouldn’t succeed B. Daszkiewicz admits, that he would have to pay the fine again.

Until now the director of administration had to pay over 2 thousand Litas fine from his own funds.
