After few rounds of public meetings and debates,
the representatives of the local actors decided
to form an NGO which will be entrusted with
the organization of Sibiu/Hermannstadt 2007.
The Juridical Department
of the Municipality undertook the first steps
towards establishing a non-lucrative association
named Association
Sibiu/Hermannstadt European Capital of Culture
2007 and registering it in a
court of law according to Romanian laws. The
operations of the Association will be internally
and externally audited.
The Management Board of the Association Sibiu/Hermannstadt
European Capital of Culture 2007 is entitled
to take the decisions regarding the organization
of the European Capital of Culture Sibiu/Hermannstadt
2007.
Besides the office located
in the City Hall of Sibiu/Hermannstadt, the
presidents
of the association in Sibiu/Hermannstadt Mr.
Klaus Johannis and the president of
the Luxembourg association Mr. Guy Dockendorf
agreed to set up an office
placed in the Luxembourg House in Sibiu for
the necessary works in organising
the programme.
A third office will be opened soon in the very
centre of the city, in the Large Square, in
the building of the City Hall which is presently
under restauration.
The budget at the disposal
of the Sibiu 2007 Association has been put in
place so far by Sibiu Town Hall and Romanian
Government. |
