The opening of the controversial sports ground in Gagarin Park has been delayed for six months.
Let us remind you that in May of last year, a multifunctional (as promised by the authorities) sports ground began to be created in Kirov's Gagarin Park. This was undertaken by the construction company "Partner." Initially, the facility was planned to be completed by September 1, but later the deadline was pushed to November 18. Then the commission found deficiencies, ordered them to be rectified, and scheduled the final acceptance for December. However, it was not opened by December or April.
Today, April 10, the site was attended by Sports Minister Sergey Sulik, Kirov administration staff, and a couple of United Russia deputies. Deputy Head of the Administration Ivan Stroy reported that the contractor had completed the main volume of work, with only the surfacing of the skate zone and the filling of the football field with rubber crumb and sand remaining. These works were excluded from the contract. The customer — sports school "Soyuz" — is now looking for another contractor to finish everything.
Officials and deputies also concluded that the site is too dirty. They called on local residents to participate in a cleanup event that will take place at the end of April to tidy up the site before the new contractor comes in.
It should be noted that children have been playing on this sports ground since autumn, even though it has not been officially opened. No one has restricted them from doing so.
