The Department of Housing and Communal Services of Mykolaiv has announced an open tender for the overhaul of the building at 21 Admiralska Street damaged by the attack. The expected cost of the work after adjustments to the project is 12.6 million hryvnias.

This is according to the ProZorro public procurement system, according to NikVesti.

As you know, in July 2023, the Department of Housing and Communal Services published a tender for major repairs. The contract was signed with the contractor at the end of August. The city planned to spend 9.2 million hrtvnias on the works.

The first stage of the dismantling work took longer than planned due to the significant damage to the building. However, when the contractor started the restoration, additional work appeared that the housing office did not take into account when concluding the contract, which led to the project being suspended for adjustment.

Currently, the work on the building is 40% complete, as Artem Sapozhnyk, Deputy Director of the State Housing Committee, said in a commentary to NikVesti in April 2024. Out of the planned 9.2 million, 1 million 788 thousand 435 hryvnias was spent on these works.

According to the tender, published on 5 May, the restoration work should be completed by 30 September this year. The contractor is obliged to dismantle the building, install new doors and windows, and lay floors, walls, and ceilings. The contractor will also carry out electrical and plumbing work; install heating, ventilation, air conditioning and security systems, etc.

As a reminder, a Russian missile hit the building on the night of 1 October 2022. It destroyed parts of the fourth and fifth floors of the five-storey building. A young girl was killed and five other people were injured in the attack.
