Fund will open appeal for non-construction renovation in October, with works beginning in January or February, covering thousands of buildings

Amendments to the Law on Renewal of the Zagreb and Surroundings Reconstruction Fund will now include organization of the non-construction renovation, previously borne by the citizens themselves. The public call for expression of interest for non-construction renovation opened on Monday, October 25th. This applies to non-construction elements of multi-family, residential-commercial and commercial buildings, as well as family houses on the territory of the City of Zagreb and the Krapina-Zagorje County. "We've informed the City of Zagreb and the local government units of the Krapina-Zagorje County to give us the locations where citizens will be able to submit this request. The requests will be able to be submitted digitally on the form that the Fund will have on its websites and can be submitted at the Info Center for Seismic Renovation near Sheraton," said the Director of the Reconstruction Fund, Damir Vanđelić, who expects that the appeal will include thousands of buildings. The submission of citizens' requests would begin in October, also the procurement of services, and the beginning of the works is planned for January or February. Non-construction renovation includes repair or removal and new installation of damaged chimneys, roof tiles, and parapets, as well as balcony railings; repair or removal and new installation of parts of roof ridges on the roof/ attic; partial or complete rebuilding of non-load-bearing (partition) walls with the same or less material; repair of roof pitches (local replacement of gable ends, roofing felt, tiles); replacement of parts of roofing (pointing, slates); repair of cracks in non-construction elements; repair or replacement of parts of roof ridges and roofing openings, as well as roof insulation repair, and repair or replacement of lifts and staircases.

Replacement houses will be built in 8 months

The project design of the first replacement house is nearing completion, which will be built within 8 months. "It's a house of a net area of 55 square meters. The planned deadline for project completion is 45 days. We have anticipated that by the end of January we will choose a contractor, and the deadline for completion is 8 months, so the replacement house should be handed over to the owner by the end of October. This is the planned timeline for building all the replacement family houses that will come to us," said Željka Mutnjaković Prebeg, Director of the Service for Technical and Financial Control of Design and Revision Services. She explained that it is estimated that the entire process of building a replacement family house, from submitting the request to the Ministry to the completion of the works, would take 12 months. The Director of the Reconstruction Fund, Damir Vanđelić said that as of October 15th, there are 13,703 citizen requests for renovation at the Ministry, of which 511 have been processed, i.e. the decision, temporary decision or solution has been made. "It is clear that we still have a certain delay," commented Vanđelić. Out of 25 decisions on removal to the Fund from the Ministry of Construction, 11 removals have been implemented, and the rest will be implemented in the next few weeks, said Vanđelić. The Reconstruction Fund is soon expected to obtain the ISO 37001 - anti-corruption management system certificate, which defines the requirements and procedures that help prevent, detect, and resolve corruption, regardless of whether it is about bribery of an organization or bribery in its favor, in the interest of its employees or business partners.
