Reconstruction of obsolete housing stock planned in Kyiv

They plan to reconstruct quarters of outdated housing stock to create comfortable living conditions for residents. This decision was supported on July 6 at a meeting of the Kyiv City Council’s standing commission of architecture issues, urban planning, and land relations, – reports the website of the Kyiv City Council.

According to Yulia Yarmolenko, a Kyiv City Council deputy, it is necessary to comprehensively solve the issue of updating the objects of the outdated housing stock to develop the infrastructure.

“The objects of the outdated housing stock have actually exhausted their operational resource. They need reconstruction due to the deterioration of engineering networks, unsuitability for people with limited mobility, low energy efficiency, non-compliance with insulation standards and inefficient use of territories. It is necessary to develop a consistent system of measures to ensure comprehensive reconstruction of these objects. From the point of view of reliability and cost savings, it will be much more effective to carry out a comprehensive reconstruction of objects than to systematically carry out spot repairs,” said Yarmolenko.

Deputy Yaroslav Fedorenko reported that the PE “Institute of Urban Studies” has developed a program for comprehensive reconstruction of neighborhoods of obsolete housing stock in Kyiv.

“Support and implementation of the program will help to give comfortable and safe living conditions for residents. This will contribute to the further development of social infrastructure and ensure an increase in the efficient use of urban areas. In addition, the implementation of the program will help to attract additional investments and increase the amount of tax revenues to the local budget in order to further sustainable development of Kyiv,” Yaroslav Fedorenko added.

There are 2,500 one-story houses planned to build in Kyiv, instead houses, destroyed by russian invaders.
