First they wanted a loft, and then they changed their mind. This is the story of a group of residents on Ion Neculce Street in Chisinau. The people say that they initially agreed for the loft to be built, but later they realized that the construction firm had fake documentation. For its part the constructor rejects the allegations, and claims that they have the necessary amount of signatures for building, Info-Prim Neo reports. The residents are categorically against the building of the loft. They claim that the constructor showed them the design of a cantilever loft, which they did not agree upon. Also, they claim that the tests showing the block's condition are falsified. The residents undertook their own test which proved that the block is not fit for the construction of a loft. On the other hand, the company’s representative claims that after a re-evaluation, the loft was projected without protrusions and afterwards shown to the residents. Meanwhile, the constructor's representative claims to have two thirds of the top floor’s residents’ signatures, as required by the Law, which enables him to build the loft apartment. In order to solve this issue, the residents asked for the involvement of the capital’s Mayor, Dorin Chirtoaca. At the site, after hours of discussion and analysis of the project, the Mayor explained to the residents that the documents are, in fact, not fake, but contain some irregularities that will be eliminated. The Mayor noted that the second feasibility test of the building also showed that the loft can be built. Since the building is under the jurisdiction of the Municipal Enterprise for Housing Stock Management, only 2/3 of the signatures are necessary. If the block would’ve been managed by a residents’ association, then all the signatures would’ve been necessary. Dorin Chirtoaca proposed both parties to take part, next week, in a meeting organized by the district head's office, in order to make a compromise. If a residents’ association will be formed, then the residents must think of way for paying the company’s repairs of the block; if they arrive at a compromise, the building of the loft must continue. The Mayor mentioned that along with the building of the loft, the company will repair the roof, change the pipe network, change the windows, build a parking lot and a playground, etc. According to the Mayor, the longevity of the block will be prolonged by several decades. If the works continue, the Mayor promised to oversee the progress himself.
