The vicinity of mountain Kosmaj (13 km) offers enjoyment in the increasingly popular excursion and hunting tourism. The recognizable symbol of this mountain and the entire region is a large monument erected on its top in 1971, in memory of the soldiers of the partisan unit formed in Kosmaj, who were killed in World War II. Spa tourism is already well developed. Selters Spa, famous for its thermomineral water, which was discovered in 1898, has enjoyed good reputation in the whole world for a long time. <br />
Angling is possible on two lakes near Mladenovac – Rabrovacko and Markovacko lakes. The latter also has catering and accommodation facilities.<br />
Almost all sacral buildings constructed at the end of the 14th and the beginning of the 15th century testify to the omnipresence of despot Stefan Lazarevic (1377-1427) in the territory of the present-day municipality of Mladenovac. He was a son and heir of the holy Serbian prince Lazar Hrebeljanovic, one of the greatest Serbian rulers, and his wife princess Milica. Tresije Monastery in Kosmaj, which was built by King Dragutin at the end of 13th and the beginning of 14th century, was extended and reconstructed by despot Stefan one century later. He also built Pavlovac Monastery. These monasteries, together with the already existing monasteries of Kastaljan and Velika Ivanca, put the mountain top of Kosmaj under the protection of the Holy Cross. Kosmaj was the very place where Stefan Lazarevic met his end on July 19 1427, and his companion Djuradj Zubrovic put a stone obelisk in the place of his death in Crkvine (today in this place there is a church dedicated to St Elias, which was contructed in 1884). It has been preserved to the present day and in 1979 it was put under protection as a cultural monument of outstanding importance to the state.Marija Gajević - Majahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13821096802490568908noreply@blogger.comМладеновац, Србија44.4333333 20.70000000000004544.4123453 20.681975500000046 44.454321300000004 20.718024500000045tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2158987925350046183.post-88938497068659651832011-06-21T02:41:00.000-07:002011-07-07T07:55:01.030-07:00Mladenovac<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-paFwXEVeZ-c/TgBm_5wDX5I/AAAAAAAAA4s/jPxBgsfS42E/s1600/Mladenovac-mapa.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-paFwXEVeZ-c/TgBm_5wDX5I/AAAAAAAAA4s/jPxBgsfS42E/s320/Mladenovac-mapa.jpg" width="260" /></a></div><br />
The municipality of Mladenovac, one of the 17 urban municipalities of the City of Belgrade, is situated in the northern part of the lowland region of Sumadija, at an altitude ranging from 113 to 628 metres (mountain Kosmaj). It extends across most of the basin of the little river Veliki Lug, a left tributary of the Kubrsnica, and the outer edges of mountain Kosmaj lying to the west of it. It is surrounded by the municipalities of Sopot, Grocka, Smederevo, Smederevska Palanka, Topola and Arandjelovac. The territory of the municipality has temperate continental climate, with an average annual temperature of 10.7о C and precipitation of 649 mm. The municipality covers an area of 33,904 hectares 71 ares and 44 square metres. Today, the town of Mladenovac has over 22,000 citizens and is situated in the central part of the Municipality, which – according to the last census - has a total of 56,389 citizens living in 5 urban, 4 suburban and 15 village local communities.<br />
Mladenovac, located in the centre of the municipality, and the whole of the municipality itself, have a favourable geographic position. Moravsko-Vardarsko-Nisavska railway (Belgrade-Nis-Sofia) runs across its territory, providing excellent railway communications. Belgrade-Nis motorway also runs through the territory of the municipality. In Mali Pozarevac an arterial road leading to Mladenovac branches off the motorway, so that the town has a short link with the most important road in Serbia. In Mladenovac, the arterial road to Kragujevac branches into regional roads to Smederevo and Smederevska Palanka, thus providing the municipality with exceptional connections with the neighbouring towns. Mladenovac is also well-connected with the capital - by the motorway (54 km) and the road via Ralja and Avala (56 km). The vicinity of the capital of Serbia and the fact that since 1971 the municipality has also been part of the territory of the City of Belgrade, give this municipality many advantages over other municipalities.Marija Gajević - Majahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13821096802490568908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2158987925350046183.post-34474129511521724782010-11-28T00:01:00.000-08:002016-01-07T07:51:17.033-08:00Serbia - Mladenovac<center>

An increase in transit transport is quite noticable in Mladenovac. Aside from having a good network of roads, what other features of municipality are important to investors and what sets your municipality aprt from other municipalities in Belgrade ?<br />
The loan taken out by the municipality two years ago was spent on asphalting every single local road. Aside from the fact that Belgrade - Nis railway runs through our municipality, we have a customs office right next to the railway station and only ten minutes from Belgrade - Nis motorway − thus being connected to the whole of Serbia − I would like to mention two more things. The M23 regional road (Belgrade - Kragujevac), which also passes through Mladenovac, has witnessed sharp increase in traffic activities in the past few years. According to some studies, we could easily call this motorway due the sheer volume of traffic, while internal analysis carried out by Mladenovac police showed that an average of 1,500 vehicles per houre pass through the intersection of M23 road ( at the entrance to Mladenovac ). This makes the road one of the busiest in the country. To some people this is just traffic, but to me it is money. The Municipality of Mladenovac and the City of Belgrade are currently working on construction of a bypass around Mladenovac, in order to redirect vehicles coming from Smederevska Palanka to non-metropolitan roads, which, in turn, will lead to greater transit rates.<br />
All companies in Mladenovac, aside from the Petar Drapsin Concern, have been privatised. However, in my opinion, those privatisations haven`t yielded the desired results, primarly due to mistakes made by companies’ buyers. They failed to fully utilise the advantages of municipality’s geographical position and qualified workforce. Mladenovac used to be one of the biggest industrial centres in the district of Šumadija, but − due to circumstances and the historical events of the past twenty years − mass production activity died down. Bearing in mind that our municipality has been officially considered a part of Belgrade for the past forty years, I do believe that the time has come to finally start supporting SMEs, as well as the municipality’s tourist and agricultural development. The best local products sold at Belgrade’s open markets have been coming from Mladenovac for years. We also have a big agricultural produce whole sale market just near the motorway, while Kosmaj Mountain, the Markovacko and Rabrovacko lakes and Selters spa offer multitude possibilities for tourist activities in our municipality, which gravitates towards our capital city.<br />
We sholuld also mention the boom in construction activities (be that residental or business premises) since 2000. Although major capital investors are quite cautious, so speak many individuals and families are increasingly moving to Mladenovac, where living expenses are much lower. Many housing units have been built and continue to be built here, with an average price of 600 euros per square metre. Quite a few people understand just how important is to be close to Belgrade and just how competitive the prices of residental and bussiness units are here, as well as the price of land plots compared to those in Belgrade proper. The municipality is currently implementing two large investments : the first is acqusition of a large military complex Sajmište, which has over two hectares of land in the town, and the second is construction of a contemporary shoping centre on the site of the former open market, also downtown.<br />
<strong>Does the municipality have an industrial zone and, if so, si it zone’s infrastructure in place ? </strong><br />
I will respond to this question in one sentence: the entire municipality of Mladenovac is an industrial zone that has complete infrastructure and qualified workforce.<br />
<strong>What can the municipality offer potential investors at this moment? Do you have special incentivies for investors and what industrial branch do you consider most suitable to invest in ? </strong><br />
Mladenovac is town open to investors. When I say "open", I mean that anybody seriously contemplating launching production in our municipality will be given full logistical support from me, as the municipality’s president, and all relevant services. So far, I have been personaly involved in expediting the process of issuing building permits to potential investors and I intend to continiue to do so in the future. I don’t want to suggest what branch they should invest in, but I will tell you that Belgrade is rapidly expanding. Belgrade is the biggest food consumer in the country and when you are stuck up in your skyscraper office, surrounded by smog and noise, a weekend in the wooded Kosmaj area or Selters spa, which is only half an hour from Belgrade, will eliminate every ounce of stress in you. I think this is where the profit lies. Anyhow, I would like to invite all investors to come here or meet with me in order to see for themselves what Mladenovac can offer.<br />
<strong>How long does it take for an investor to obtain all required permits and documentation for doing business here ? </strong><br />
Me and my associates view every new job created here as a small victory for our municipality. When it comes to isuing permits, there are certain legal deadlines that we cannot make any shorter − since they dont’t depend the Municipality of Mladenovac − but any permit, document or information that an investor needs from our municipal services will be provided the same day or will be waiting the next morning, on the investor’s desk, togheter with his morning coffee.<br />
<strong>What are the most important investors that have invested in your municipality so far ? </strong><br />
I don’t want to repeat my earlier coments about major capital or the global economic crisis which, unfortunately, has become an excuse for all our problems. I have established offical contacts with the Slovenian and British ambassadors, who have conveyes their impressions to interested investors. You can see this interes materialised just few hundred meters from place where we are currently situated − at the entrance of Mladenovac − where we are building a large shoping centre stretching across several tens of thousands meters.<br />
