The Department of Capital Construction of the City Council is going to order adjustments to the project of the second stage of the reconstruction of the «Zorya» sports complex in Mykolaiv, since they decided to add the arrangement of a shelter to the list of works.

This is stated in the article NikVesti «A year of work. How does the Zoria communal pool work after the repair?».

First, the second stage of reconstruction of the Zoria sports complex involves the repair of the gym and cardio room. Oleksii Savchuk, the director of the capital construction department of the city council, promised to repair them by the end of 2024. For this purpose, in April 2024, a corresponding tender for 6.7 million hryvnias was even announced.

However, the renovation of the sports halls never started. Currently, it is necessary to make adjustments to the already developed project, as the management of the communal institution «Central City Stadium» requested to include in the project the arrangement of shelters for 300 people, Oleksii Savchuk said. Currently, there is a shelter for 150 people on the territory of the sports complex.

«There, the entire project is viewed as a whole. Only the arrangement of the shelter cannot be considered separately. Because it is necessary to review all the existing norms that exist. Maybe something has changed, maybe something needs to be added, just at this moment, in order to understand that later this project can undergo an examination. You can't separate the shelter itself and say, we're just adding shelter and that's it,» explained Oleksii Savchuk.

Due to the repair of the shelter, the cost of the second stage of the reconstruction of the sports complex will increase, but how much this amount will increase is still unknown, says Oleksii Savchuk. This will become clear after adjusting the project. When the works will start and when they will be completed, the capital construction department was also unable to provide an answer, as it is currently unknown whether there will be funds for this in the budget of Mykolaiv next year.

«It is very difficult to say without understanding what will happen with the budget for the next year and without understanding what amount of funds will be needed to complete this facility,» added Oleksii Savchuk.

Repair of the sports complex Zoria

In May 2023, the first swim took place in the renovated pool of the Zoria sports complex in Mykolaiv.

Before that, Mayor Oleksandr Sienkevych inspected the pool. He said that the reconstruction of the sports complex takes place in two stages. The first stage involved the repair of the pool bowl, changing rooms and other technical premises that will ensure the operation of the pool. The second stage, which is still ongoing, involves the repair of the gym, locker rooms, insulation of the building and other works.

The process of transferring Zoria into the ownership of the city began back in August 2018. Two years later, in March 2020, the sports complex was transferred to the municipal ownership of Mykolaiv. At the same time, the state enterprise Ukroboronprom compensated the city with 5 million hryvnias for the repair of Zoria.

After handing over the sports complex, Oleksandr Sienkevych promised to launch the Zoria swimming pool in the fall of 2020. However, the work was delayed. In autumn 2021, the capital construction department of the city council announced tenders for the capital repair and restoration of the Zoria sports complex with an expected cost of 94 million 915 thousand 520 hryvnias.

In December 2021, Vice Mayor Vitalii Lukov announced that the reconstruction of the Zoria sports complex will be completed no earlier than the second half of 2022. Later, during the reconstruction of the swimming pool in the Zoria sports complex, 7 cracks were found in the bowl of the facility.

Subsequently, the mayor of Mykolaiv Oleksandr Sienkevych announced the launch of the Zoria sports complex in February 2022. Due to the start of a full-scale war, the completion of the works and the launch of the pool were postponed again.
