Viktoria Bodnar, a new member of the Odesa City Council representing the “Trust the Deeds” faction, has declared her family’s assets and income. Over the course of a year, her own business generated more than 6.6 million hryvnias in revenue.
This is stated in Bodnar’s declaration, published in the NACP registry on November 11.
According to the declaration, Viktoria Bodnar’s income from entrepreneurial activities for the year amounted to 6,607,160 hryvnias. An additional 10,320 hryvnias came from a childbirth allowance.
The lawmaker owns one-third of a 16.8-square-meter plot of land and one-third of a 97-square-meter residential building in Tairove. She acquired both properties in 2014 together with her parents. The declared value of the house at the time of purchase was 429,642 hryvnias, and that of the land plot was 48,955 hryvnias.
The declaration also lists a 66.73-square-meter apartment in Zaporizhzhia, a quarter of which belongs to the lawmaker’s husband. Another apartment with an area of 34.7 square meters and a non-residential space with an area of 4.9 square meters in Avangard belong to her mother. A 500-square-meter plot of land in Tairove is registered in her father’s name.
Viktoria Bodnar owns a 2019 Nissan Kicks. Its value at the time of purchase in 2023 was 292,480 hryvnias.
Members of her family have also declared vehicles: her husband—a 2015 Volkswagen Transporter worth 700,000 hryvnias; her father—a 2017 Nissan Rouge worth 444,000 hryvnias; and her mother—a 2012 Lexus GS250 worth 245,000 hryvnias.

The Bodnar couple has $5,000 in cash held in joint ownership. The councilwoman’s parents jointly hold another $3,000.
In 2025, the councilwoman’s husband received 78,694 hryvnias in salary from a sole proprietorship. Her mother declared 43,000 hryvnias in pension, and her father—161,000.
Bodnar joined the city council on October 28, 2026, when five new deputies from “Trust the Deeds” received their mandates at an extraordinary session. This was preceded by an internal conflict: in August, the party decided to recall four council members— Oleg Bryndak, Marina Lozovenko, Oleksandr Matveev, and Vasyl Ieremiya.
