Jeanne Tihonenko lives in a three-room apartment on Avenue F. Skorina, 38, Polotsk. According to her, recently restored entrance, made on the initiative of local utilities, communal services put her through nearly 2 million rubles. Owners of 1-room apartment have to pay a million, of 2-room apartment - almost 1.5 million rubles.
Pensioner puzzled why the cost in general cosmetic work in the stairwell of 4-storey house, built over 50 years ago, so great. And it's not like the people, she said, the rush to repair the entrance.
"At the beginning of the spring housing department employees organized a meeting of the residents of our entrance - said Jeanne Tihonenko. - To put all face the fact that the repair and need to sign the relevant contract. Of the 16 apartments it was not all representatives and agreed to sign the documents are not more than three tenants. I refused. But work began almost immediately - entrance plastered and painted just a week. Then came a letter that I have to pay for it all 2 million rubles, and the total estimated cost of repairs - nearly 20 million. Is it too expensive for our little porch? I do not want to pay, but employees of public utilities have promised to collect money for utilities. Why is that
Head of Housing Management Utilities Executive Committee Natalia Selyuk explained that Polotsk communal services doing the right thing. In Vitebsk region acting regional program to restore order in the hallways, according to which this year is scheduled in 2623 to repair the common areas. So many porches in disrepair communal services revealed during the annual autumn and spring examinations. According to him, the basis for the decision on the current repair is, above all, poor technical condition of public spaces, the existence of defects in the finish coat, as well as the decision of tenants. The volume is determined to be defective repair act, and it being possible to carry out works locally, for example, any one storey (assuming that the other staircases in satisfactory condition). The choice of finishing materials and color of the solution depends on the willingness of residents to this communal services and hold meetings. However, if the contract does not, then repair the staircase in the old style. All work carried out on the basis of a model contract for the provision of the current repairs of a house.
As for payment, according to the updated Housing Code of the Republic of Belarus, the costs of operation of the common property is now reimburse owners (tenants) of property, a specific list of types of work and payment regulated by the decree of the Ministry of housing and communal services №12 on 4 June 2014.
"It should be noted that according to Article 29 of the Housing Code of the villagers from the failure to conclude the agreement does not exempt them from payment for services actually rendered, - emphasizes Natalia Selyuk. - At the same time employees of public utilities should be informed in advance about the planned timing of repair, the main species and their cost. Estimates are made for specific standards that are monitored. An important condition is that the repair of the entrance as a service cannot be profitable for the departments of housing and communal services. That is, the tenants pay directly the costs. The fee for the repair is calculated in fractions commensurate with the total area of apartments. More space - more charge. Can small installments for those who signed a contract."
It is noteworthy that tenants can to repair porches, but, in practice, this is rarely happens - people simply cannot agree. As for the frequency of repairs entrances, then, according to experts utilities, while preserving the tenants repairs of common areas is hardly needed more frequently than once every ten years. But this ideal. Real life dictates its own terms. Most problems in apartment buildings where there are cases of vandalism. Their inhabitants now stands to protect your entrance, and pay attention to outsiders. Because in case of breakage of the same garbage, or the appearance of graffiti on the walls of all the correct housing department specialists, but would have to reimburse the cost of the tenants or guilty. If there are, of course, finds the police.
At the same time Natalia Selyuk emphasizes that on the shoulders of the owners (employers) housing today charged with only a small percentage of repair work in the building, in fact, only in the hallways. Major repairs, improvement of territory still largely performed for budgetary subsidies, the size of which, unfortunately, does not grow, unlike the prices of materials.
Well, what the situation in Polotsk? It turned out that the customer repair work is CUE "Polotsk housing and communal services." Deputy director of the company Constantin Lagoon explained that the estimated cost of the works in the entrance, which voiced pensioner, was in fact only a preliminary. Now it revised downwards, and will be about 500-600 thousand rubles from the apartment. Constantine Lagoon also reassured other residents whose entrances this year came in the annual program of repairs. According to him, it is unlikely someone will have to pay for it more than 1 million rubles.
