Residents of the house at 10 Balkivska Street in Odesa, where the attic ceiling collapsed on August 10, did not apply to the district administration for resettlement.

This was reported to Intent by the Odesa municipality.

They clarified that the house is not an emergency and is maintained by the management company Klever. Yesterday and today, employees of the management company were cleaning up the debris that appeared as a result of the partial destruction of the ceiling. Tomorrow they plan to clean the front door from dust.

The management company will also repair the ceiling above the stairwell and part of the perimeter fence of the staircase that was damaged as a result of the incident.

Earlier, the Main Directorate of the State Emergency Service in Odesa Oblast reported that on the evening of August 10, in the Prymorskyi district of Odesa, on Balkivska Street, the ceiling of the attic above the stairwell on the fourth floor of a four-story residential building was partially destroyed.

The incident blocked the entrance doors of the residents of the apartments on the floor, so Odesa residents called rescuers who unblocked the exits and sawed off the dangerous structures that could have fallen. No one was injured in the incident.

Meanwhile, the Economic Court of Odesa Oblast has scheduled for August 13 a hearing on the lawsuit filed by residents of building No. 4 in Teatralny Lane, known as the Manger House, against the executive committee of the Odesa City Council. Earlier, the residents won in two instances in another lawsuit - to recognize as illegal the decision of the City Council's commission that assigned the building an emergency status.

The local residents are going to use the court decision to get the building repaired. They are ready to invest their own money and count on the city's help.
