He worked in the field until 2015.
Currently, the doors of the La Boheme restaurant are still closed due to quarantine and operation restrictions.
It is true that the situation could be different, as its director Vitalija Baimler-Saveikienė, who approached Delfi, said, but the business does not receive permission to open an outdoor terrace in the nearby courtyard, which had been operating there five years ago. .
According to her, in 2015, the management of St. Ignoto 6, the restaurant operated outdoors and rented the land from the Vilnius city municipality, in addition to paying her an annual land rent and a fixed fee.
Then managers said they had invested nearly 60,000 in the open-air bar. EUR. After buying bar equipment, outdoor furniture, awnings. However, according to them, in 2015 they were told that coffee activities in the patio would no longer be possible, because the municipality’s land was being prepared to be transferred to the Ministry of National Defense.
“We then petitioned the Ministry of National Defense for an application to lease the land for outdoor coffee, but the ministry’s attorneys replied that the government was not entitled to receive income from the land it owned. They did not discuss any possibility.
Then we request permission to operate (this would also allow us to continue operating without paying the land rent, paying only the municipal fee). He declined, citing the State Audit Office’s fear of why there is coffee on the ground of the Ministry of National Defense and not paying the rent. And you can’t collect the rent. So that’s what a closed circle is like, “he said.
According to the manager, even then, the Ministry of Health was offered various solutions so that the café could operate only on weekends, but, as I recalled, it was abandoned.
“In this way, previously full of life, wonderful beauty of the 17th century. The personnel of the Ministry of National Defense have turned the courtyard of the Jesuit novitiate monastery into a parking lot for five cars, ”said the director, adding that the last time he requested such permission in April 2016.
Not worth opening
According to her, today the municipality of the city of Vilnius is trying to save business and offers all public spaces to participate in outdoor coffee activities, but restaurant activities in said courtyard are not possible.
“The government, in allocating the land to administer it at the request of the Ministry of National Defense, deprived us of the opportunity to operate, pay the rent for the land, the municipal fee, and in the summer we did not hire six employees and paid a lot tax of approximately 50,000-70,000 EUR per month. ” He claimed that tens of thousands of euros in taxes would be paid to the state every year in the same way.
The woman said the restaurant awnings are still in the yard, and the furniture and other equipment, heaters, stored in the basement of the nearby restaurant, although they could be used today and the business, to attract visitors.
“Quarantine has affected restaurants a lot, and we don’t have a patio like that either.”
We have a couple of tables at the entrance that we can’t use because it basically doesn’t compensate us. Instead of four tables, you could only use two, it’s not worth opening the whole machine, because the restaurant is not small.
If we were allowed to operate in the yard, we would open up, ”said the director.
If you make a request, please consider
Delfi contacted representatives of the Ministry of National Defense. They clarified that as of November 13, 2017, the Ministry will use a piece of land in St. St. Ignoto g. 6)
