The State Duma plenary session on Friday passed the third reading of the amendments to the law “On introduction of the Housing Code,” on extending the time allowed citizens to choose how to manage the apartment building.

Under the law, the time limit is extended to 1 July 2008. By this time it will be necessary to determine who will rule the house: homeowners, the management company or the group itself tenants.

Until recently, the monopoly was a communal DES. This is a state-run well or ill contained house, and the Russians pay the utility bills, the quality of which many were dissatisfied. The new Housing Code gave the choice to the citizens of the Russian Federation must be done before January 1, 2007. Option one – to entrust the management of housing associations. HOA board chooses, it is on this model should hire janitors, plumbers, electricians, cleaners, in short, everyone who keeps order in the house. The second option – to choose the UK, which will perform the functions of Deza. The third way – to manage the home on their own. In Moscow, it is practically applicable. When the owners of small, somehow we can agree: you do roof repair, you paint the facade, you you remove the yard. And if the house is 3.2 hundreds of apartments, there could hardly come to an agreement.

The law specifies that the subjects of the Russian Federation shall have the right to determine the start and end dates of the competitions at the option of management companies for all or individual municipalities completion of their conduct before 1 May 2008.

In accordance with the law citizens had to choose ways to manage the apartment building before January 1, 2007.
