SOCIAL HOUSING IN MIELNO On 25 March in Gąski town, Olga Roszak-Pezała, the mayor of Mielno, officially handed over the keys to social housing to another four happy families. In this way, the second, i.e. the final stage of the investment of the Mielno Commune, consisting in the reconstruction of two buildings of the former nursing home, was completed.
The implementation of the project is a huge technological and financial challenge, but as Olga Roszak-Pezała says, the investment was long awaited by the local community. ”We know perfectly well that the housing situation in Poland is not the best and for many years we have been trying to help the most needy in gaining the desired four angles”, assures the Mayor of Mielno. In the last two years, the Mielno Commune, with a population of less than 5,000, has already provided 20 modern premises to the needy representatives of the local community. by Radosław Sobko| r.sobko@gmina.mielno.pl
A total of 76 people will live in the new place, because as many as 19 flats have been created: 17 flats, a sheltered unit and a day support facility (PWD), operating within the structures of the Municipal Social Welfare Center in Mielno. The facility with an area of almost 150 sq m includes two modern classrooms, an internet café, a fitness room, offices and 3 bathrooms – all of this is at the disposal of the charges from Gąski town. The rebuilt facilities are two 4-story, single-staircase buildings adapted, among others, to to the needs of people with disabilities. The project also included the reclamation of the plot in the form of the construction of a car park, playground, etc. The value of the investment was almost PLN 5 million, of which PLN 1.8 million was the amount of co-financing from the Subsidy Fund of Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego.
