Within National Judicial Reform Strategy as one of the Judicial Authorities which was performing court activity in a residential building at central city zone for more than 20 years,
Misdemeanor Court Pančevo was intended to be relocated to the border of its perifery.
Thereby, conditions for design and construction of Judicial Authority Building were enabled on cadastral plot as building land for public administration use.
Concerning characteristic plot position, two of its sides form the corner along the European International Route E70 and access road for family houses, other two along the family house
and school sports courtyard, building pulls – back from plot and construction lines of former Old Footwear Factory building on which place is today.
