Minsk regional executive committee: "Bulbash-Hall" construction suspended

This is the response of the land surveying service of Minsk regional executive committee to the inquiry of civil activist Hanna Shaputska on violation of the Kurapaty memorial protection zone.

The letter tells about "4 residential buildings in the protection zone of the historical and cultural value", the construction of which "has been suspended". As for the main building of the "Bulbash Hall", it is mentioned in the letter indirectly - "the zone of regulated construction will be established additionally". At the same time, it is not informed whether the four buildings that broke the protection zone will be demolished.

The letter also reminds that on November 27, 2012 the General Public Prosecution made a submission to Minsk regional executive committee "On liquidation of law violation with regard to protection of a historical and cultural value, as well as the reasons and conditions, favourable thereof".

"Elaboration of detailed territory planning", mentioned by Minsk city executive committee's officials, can mean fixation of the current protection zone (violated by the constructors of the "Bulbash-Hall"), or its decrease. In this case, all the current buildings will remain untouched. If the protection zone is expanded (which is unlikely), the "Bulbash-Hall" will be ruined.
