In Ivanovo in dozens of apartment buildings heat is only on paper

The mayor of Ivanov Maxim Komissarov reports about the almost complete readiness of the city for winter. According to official data on the evening of October 12, warmth was served in 2,481 apartment buildings out of 2501 (99%). The remaining 20 buildings, according to the administration, are in the process of connecting.

However, behind the dry figures of official statistics hides a harsh reality. The mayor’s report does not specify that dozens of homes, formally listed as connected, immediately after the start of the season were without heat due to accidents on the grid. Residents of such buildings are forced to heat up with appliances, while officials report 99 percent success.

For the city hall, the heating season has already begun, but for the residents of these houses - not yet.
