Roof repairs were planned for autumn 2025. But it's already the end of November, and the process still hasn't begun.
The city administration clarified that once funds are found, a tender will be announced to select a contractor who will repair the roof. According to EAN, talks about repairing the roof in "Gorodok Chekistov" have been ongoing since last year.
