One such example comes from Brus on Trebeviฤ‡, where several residential and other structures have been built in recent years. However, citizens have been warning for months that one of the abandoned construction sites is inadequately protected, and that they have alerted the inspection of the City of East Sarajevo about this, but have received no response. In addition to inadequate protection, a landslide has occurred in this area, further endangering the region. Readers point out that the construction site has been abandoned for over a year, and in recent months, the excavated pit has been expanding toward the local road and already-built structures, pulling away soil and at least a dozen trees. What is particularly concerning is that local authorities are ignoring the environmental and safety issue in a protected natural area. If appropriate remediation measures are not taken soon, much more severe consequences for the environment and the people of Brus could follow. Brus is one of Sarajevo's most popular excursion spots, but this part of Trebeviฤ‡ is also a large construction site where numerous residential buildings are being erected with the approval of local authorities.
