Chisinau, 4 November /MOLDPRES/ - The Chisinau Municipal Council (CMC) today approved the allocation of financial means to the residents of the attic, which took fire on the Ion Pelivan Street from the capital on 23 October.

At the same time, more municipal councilors asked to inspect all those 200 attics constructed in the city and to work out plans on protection against all calamities. The councils also asked to initiate a legislative measure, through which the compulsoriness of ensuring the private dwellings would be introduced.   

According to the praetor of Chisinau’s Buiucani district, Vadim Branzaniuc, money will be allocated from the reserve fund of the Chisinau city hall for constructing the roof of the fired attic, as the latter can no longer be reconstructed.
