MAN takes special economic zoning to new heights

The center will eventually employ 360 staff and is located on two floors of an office building. Originally, these floors were to be included in the Kostrzyn-Slubice Special Economic Zone, however, this did not happen."To establish a zone in the building, consent of its owner is required," said Krzysztof Dolganow, president of the KSSEZ. "Moreover after the city council agrees, similar decision have to be taken by a relevant voivode who did not do it." Poznanska Grupa Kapitalowa, which is managing the building, announced that it agreed to establishing the zone in the building, however, the voivode issued a negative opinion to the city council decision, as he claims that the zone can only encompass land. "It is a block so the current mayor of Poznan will not show his results," said a involved source. "Most likely the issue will be unblocked following the elections, but this might be the last investment in the city." Specialist believe that establishing the zone on only two stories would be a complicated issue, they advise re-zoning the entire building. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 6) M.M.
