Building season in Bulgaria's Sunny Beach begins
16.10.2007
New construction season in the seaside resort of Sunny Beach began on October 15 2007.
Only two or three hotels will be constructed in the eastern part of the resort, while in the western part, nearly 20 new buildings will be standing.
Elena Ivanova, representative of the union of owners, told that the next municipal council of Nessebar would have to enforce the order from the current mayor for building to be halted on May 1 2008.
The union of the owners announced that if construction would not stop on May 1, the tourist season would be put off.
Ivanova told that in 2007, the first charter flights arrived a month after the official opening of the season, making the summer season shorter for tour-operators and hotel owners.
If the building season would continue to start before October 15 and end after May 1, the summer season would continue to become shorter, which would lead to loses in the tourism sector, she announced.
An increasing number of tourists mourned of the noise and dirt in the resort, caused by the construction sites.
