RESIDENTS MAY APPEAR IN THE STREET
Support A1+!Over hundred homeless families of Gyumri may be deprived of their temporary dwelling places on the eve of winter. At present the families live in country district behind the Shirak Hotel.
Under the court decision, the residents' cottages, belonging to Shirakshin organization, have been put into action to pay back the 715 million debt of the organization which was found insolvent by the court. The action was scheduled on October 11 but it was cancelled because of the claimant's absence.
The freelance experts claim that each cottage in the disputable area costs 2 million 100 thousand AMD. Five people live in 400-square-meter cottages, thus in case each family pays 500 thousand AMD, and they may become the owners of the cottages. But none of the families can afford to buy the shabby cottages.
Fearing the possibility of appearing in the streets, the residents appealed to higher institutions, even the Municipality of Shirak marz.
The last hope is that in case there are no buyers in the actions the price of the cottages will decrease 20 percent, and the residents will be able to but the cottages themselves.
