A week earlier, on Monday, May 18, the Executive Committee of Odesa City Council was urgently convened for an extraordinary meeting. It concerned amendments to the decision of the Executive Committee of the Odesa City Council of June 19, 2025, "On Determining the Need of the Territorial Community of Odesa in the Fund of Civil Defense Facilities." In particular, it was about mobile shelters.

As for the next meeting, it is planned to consider more than 160 issues, most of which - 146 - are the issue of compensation to Odesa residents for damaged real estate as a result of hostilities, terrorist acts, sabotage caused by the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine. Earlier, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine adopted a resolution enabling residents of Odesa's landmark buildings to fully participate in government reconstruction programs. In fact, since the launch of the eRestoration program in 2023, Odesa residents who own homes in architectural monuments have been unable to receive compensation for damaged property due to bureaucratic obstacles.

In 2024, members of the Odesa City Council appealed to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine to regulate the issue of receiving compensation for damaged property under the eRestoration program by residents of residential buildings with the status of cultural heritage monuments.
