In report is stated that clashes between central and municipal authorities have emerged regarding the rights of municipalities to establish publicly owned enterprises. An initiative by the Pristina municipality to establish a publicly owned company to manage public parking has been halted by the Ministry for Local Government Administration due to unclear legal provisions.66 The issue may be due to political clashes, because Vetëvendosje runs the municipality of Pristina but is in the opposition in the Assembly.
Although Article 13 of the constitution stipulates special status for Pristina as the capital of Kosovo, the legal framework remains stalled and Pristina continues to receive the same treatment as other municipalities.
The report of the Organization for Human Rights, Democracy and Political Freedom, Freedom House, on their report on Kosova has praised the governance in the Municipality of Pristina, and also has pointed out the difficulties that the Municipality of Pristina is facing.
