The residents were often confused about where to get the utilities such as electricity or water, or postal services. In response, some efforts were made to revise the boundary line through Dobrinja, but the communities involved failed to reach an agreement. By year 2001, the international High Representative appointed a former irish Circuit Court judge Diarmuid Sheridan as an independent arbitrator, who re-drew the revised inter-entity boundary line, affecting Dobrinja I and IV, and eliminated the most pressing problems.Dobrinja hosts today four primary schools, named after Skender Kulenović, Ćamil Sijarić, Osman Nuri Hadžić and Viktor Vrdoljak, and two secondary schools, the Dobrinja Gymnasium (Gimnnazija Dobrinja) and the Sarajevo Fifth High School (Peta gimnazija).
