A Niš city council spending decision has drawn public criticism after it was revealed one million dinars were used to cover two aging vehicles with artificial turf. Tamara Milenković Kerković, a law professor and city council member representing the “Niš Residents Decide” association, publicly disclosed the expenditure. The association alleges the funds were misused and questions the necessity of the cosmetic alteration. Critics argue the money could have been better allocated to essential city services. The council has not yet issued a formal response to the allegations. The incident has ignited a debate about transparency and responsible spending within the local government. Residents are demanding a full accounting of the funds and justification for the project.
