The city authorities believe that it is time to review the operating hours of kiosks, since quite often under their signage at night alcohol and vodka products are sold without authorization. Currently, there are enough retail establishments in Lutsk that operate around the clock, so there should not be any particular inconvenience for city residents. The operating hours of computer clubs will also be reduced. As noted at a staff meeting at the city executive committee by First Deputy Mayor Sviatoslav Kravchuk, after inspecting the operation of these establishments, 1-2 round-the-clock computer clubs will remain in the city. Control over their operation will also be strengthened. Teachers asked Lutsk Mayor Anton Kryvytskyi for this at a recent meeting, pointing out that computer games, uncontrolled in time, have a negative effect on a child's immature psyche. Head of the Lutsk Department of Internal Affairs Serhii Sheliepin said that the police have facts confirming this thesis and are ready to cooperate in order to prevent them.
Another important issue discussed at the operational meeting was the housing and communal sphere. Sviatoslav Kravchuk informed those present that last week the State Committee for Communal Services recognized the work of two municipal enterprises, "Lutskteplo" and "Lutskvodokanal," as the best in Ukraine. As for the end of the heating season, as noted by the first deputy mayor, everything depends on the level of payments. "Naftogaz-Ukraine" warns that it will not supply gas to cities where the payment level is below 60%. In Lutsk, this figure is currently at 62-63%, that is, if this trend continues, by the end of the heating season the city will be left both without heat and without hot water.
Despite the underfilled local budget, public sector employees will receive their salaries on time – the city executive committee assures. However, a problem has arisen with payments coming from the central budget. Thus, there are arrears in reimbursements for subsidies for travel of privileged categories of the population to public transport enterprises and in the payment of child benefits.
Sanitary cleaning of the city concerns not only housing and communal service workers. Making our city clean and tidy is within everyone's power. Sviatoslav Kravchuk proposed that employees of budget organizations and other institutions organize themselves for the purpose of cleaning the territory adjacent to their institutions. It would also be worthwhile for young people, as the most active segment of society, to join in cleaning the city.
