Once the most favourable bidder has been determined, the Commission submits a proposal to the City Council of the City of Smederevo, which makes the final decision on the lessee of the business premises.

The City Council of the City of Smederevo reserves the right to withdraw from selecting a bidder at any stage of the procedure.

For the bidder whose bid is accepted, the deposit is counted towards the rent.
