About thirty people, adults and children, in the former collective farm socket live without heating and hot water. The destroyed porches home-made stoves in the apartments and in the cold water freezes on the floor – in such circumstances Belarusians live in 2016.
Agrotown Studzionka is 12 kilometers from Sianno. Black panels with broken windows, closed chipboard and brutal graffiti visible from the road. As soon as we drove into the yard to look at derelict house, they seem to be outside of the entrances go people. They live here.
"You see what we have done! In the basement sewage is discharged, – says Olga. Her husband moved into an apartment in the panels in 1991. – The walls are crumbling, summer fleas – you cannot pull the bed with his feet."
"You ask that you opened the cellars! There's horror, the snow melted – by boat, you can swim! And digging and drainage were taken ... nothing helps, – says her neighbor. – Money is removed, and any major repairs"?
A stench and devastation in his apartment on the second floor of our results of 70-year-old Alexander Maley. He has lived here 26 years, together with his wife. They have seven children and 18 grandchildren. But now the pensioners were left alone. Very worried that when the grandchildren arrive, then on the stairs such holes, they are afraid that those legs are not broken.
Maley's family, as in all the panels, there is no heating and hot water. The apartment piled stove, stoked with wood.
His apartment Alexander almost proud. He has new doors and windows. All he did. "The old woman retired, I retired. But still working in the village council," – he says. Alexander greatly outraged that the house in a terrible state, and utility bills for the apartment comes to 215,000.
"Rubbish even write – one and a half tons! Where I have a grandmother and a half tons of garbage?! Take, my dear kids, gold. In 70 years, we have. Afghanistan himself passed! Tajikistan! At least give a sheet of wallpaper! A major repairs are subtracted each month 60 thousand, maintenance. And who serves? I have no tap in his life have not changed! – Almost crying Alexander.
Olga says that before these homes were "collective farm." Several years ago, they were transferred to utilities balance. Part of the apartments, which was free, was the "social housing". Such "social" apartment got the pensioner Evdokia N. Kazakevich. Her own house burned down.
"I'm in the shed was warmer than in the apartment – with tears the woman said. – I'm on my knees before you get up, take some action. Throughout his offense will tell you. "
This home Evdokia N. Kazakevich was six years ago. He says that a new life began with a "spoon and fork".
"And this gave me an apartment! – Says the pensioner. – Stove, I made myself when I arrived. Under the new year to make repairs, and everything just falls. Dye had as wallpaper is not taken. Please tell me whether it is possible to live in this apartment?! I winter freezes the water in the taps!"
Evdokia Nikolayevna says complained many times and not once was in housing. But nothing has changed. And it can be seen as and apartments, and houses.
"I will give procheson, – she said – but I am not afraid." And it shows the utility bills for the same 200 thousand rubles.
Retired Disability Valenty works 10 days ago he was born the third child. Kid still in the hospital with my mother, and Valenty without interruption stokes the furnace to bring the child into the warm house.
"We are here to actually survive – said Valenty. – Insulation, drywall – all for the money. Takes away from children. And nobody do not need anything. It's a shame that the utilities are coming to play cards – and went. No trash is not removed, nothing."
Valentia's wife works at the rate in kindergarten and at half-time in the FAPs. Sam Valenty works there as a stoker and sanitation. Wages had 2 million.
"Of course, I'll do it myself, because I have the same family, children. But how can this be with people?!" – He asked.
Residents especially outraged that their monthly utility bills to calculate for the "overhaul" of 40 to 60 thousand. For the maintenance of the same pay, but as they say, housing them for such services are not provided. To see this, just look at the condition of these houses.
"197 thousand! For what?" -! People are crying, holding a past utility bills.
"They did not apply to us – in spite of the statement of Studzionka residents, says chief engineer Senno HCS Nikolai Zhukovsky.
"There once was a good boiler, boiler from the GDR, which could even Sianno provide warmth, – he says. – Then, when it all fell apart, the house passed to us on balance, taking into account the fact that already there is every once built his stove and went to his path, how to survive. The water there is, the drain is, the house we serve. All that I can say. Heating is not there. "
Nikolai Mikhailovich himself wonders why the panels come in such expensive utility bills. Perhaps he expresses an assumption, there are more meters per person, than it is necessary in the norm.
"In such circumstances, we have a lot of houses, – she says. – Where they could, restored, and where there is no way – no. While that's true. We passed in this form, in which there is "– said the chief engineer and promises to sort out.
It is already known that the May 1, 2016 Belarusians will absolutely pay for housing and communal services. According to utility bills, Evdokia Nikolayevna with stove heating, no hot water and the frames that fall out of the window cover 56.13% of utilities. After May 1 of this sum will be added for about 80 thousand rubles.
