Residents of Brașov who have enclosed their balconies can rest assured that they will not face double taxes or hefty fees for legalization. The Minister of Development, Marcel-Alexandru Stoica, issued an order to clarify legal interpretations regarding balconies closed without construction permits. The new regulations distinguish between illegal constructions and minor unauthorized modifications, ensuring that enclosing a balcony does not classify a building as illegal. Additionally, penalties for past violations are not retroactive, and property owners can apply for regularization without time constraints. The focus is on safety rather than punitive measures, and local tax authorities cannot impose increased taxes solely for having an enclosed balcony.
