Focus on solving old apartment buildings in Vinh City

(Baonghean) - After 8 years of implementation, with many solutions, the city has resolved 73/156 old apartment buildings, contributing to making Vinh city more spacious.

By April 2015, the total number of actual collective housing areas in Vinh City had been basically resolved, including 73/156 collective housing areas, reaching 46.79%, with 1,621/4,036 households. Thus, in the city there were 83 collective housing areas that needed to be resolved. In 2015, Vinh City People's Committee assigned the target of resolving 49 collective housing areas in the entire city.

The Mountain Development Company's residential area (Vinh City) was rebuilt spaciously.

In 2015, Quan Bau ward was assigned by Vinh City People's Committee to resolve 2 collective housing areas of the Rubber Company and the Coffee and Tea Company. Up to this point, the basic steps of the Rubber Company's collective housing area have been completed and are being submitted to Vinh City People's Committee for approval of the land allocation plan for households. There are 27 households here, with the old status of about 33m2/household, now the new planning of the land area allocated to each household is expanded to nearly 50m2/lot. Thus, 22 households were granted land on the spot, while 5 households had to resettle in other locations. All households agreed to respond to the State's policy.

Nghe An Rubber Company's residential area is submitting to the City People's Committee for approval of a plan to allocate land to households.

As for the collective housing area of ​​the Tea and Coffee Company, the city has a policy of solving the problem on the spot. The difficulty here is that this collective housing area is located on Nguyen Canh Hoan Street, so the land price is high (11 million VND/m2). Moreover, the people do not live in the locality, so it is very difficult to contact and coordinate to solve the steps. The current status of the collective housing area is a solid 2-storey row of houses (12 households), the apartments are currently mainly for rent. Quan Bau Ward plans to completely solve this collective housing area by the end of 2015.

Mr. Tran Anh Tuan, Vice Chairman of Quan Bau Ward People's Committee, said: To resolve the collective housing areas in the area, it is necessary to first clearly understand the circumstances of each household to propagate and mobilize people to implement the policy on resolving collective housing areas. Quan Bau Ward mobilized the entire political apparatus from the ward to the block to join in. The ward proposed that the City People's Committee allow households in difficulty to record land use fees in debt for 5 years without interest and was approved by the City People's Committee. In addition, the difficulty in site clearance is that the collective housing areas all have a large population, so clearing them at the same time to mark the plots is very difficult.

In Quang Trung ward, there are 6 collective housing areas, up to now, 3 collective housing areas have been resolved, including: Confectionery collective housing area, Metal and Electrical machinery collective housing area and Vinaconex collective housing area. According to Mr. Ha Thai Son, Chairman of Quang Trung ward People's Committee: In the 4th quarter of 2015, the ward will focus on resolving Quang Trung 1 Food Collective Housing Area - To Hien Thanh street. It is expected that in October, the site clearance will be completed and the infrastructure of Quang Trung 2 Food Collective Housing Area - Nguyen Canh Chan street will be urgently built. In 2016, the Nghe An Newspaper Printing House collective housing area will be resolved.

In the first 9 months of 2015, the city has resolved 12/49 collective housing areas. The remaining 37 collective housing areas are being resolved but are facing difficulties and obstacles. Of these, 15 collective housing areas are being marked by the People's Committees of wards and communes to measure, connect infrastructure and complete documents.

The common goal will be to resolve the slum areas in the city, re-plan the residential areas to be spacious, clean and beautiful, and improve the lives and activities of the people.
