The "Ada" gymnasium in Pljevlja resumed its work on Friday, after a meeting of local self-government leaders and management found a solution for the continuation of the functioning of this sports building.

The meeting was attended by representatives of council clubs as well as representatives of the local company "Čistoća", which has been blocking Ada's account for a long time, due to accumulated debts for the garbage collection service.

The sports hall "Ada" in Pljevlja stopped providing its services to users on Monday, due to the lack of working conditions caused by the accumulated financial and other problems they face in their work.

At the meeting, as Vijesti learned, an agreement was reached that Čistoća would unblock the account, so that they could pay part of the debt for electricity, pay taxes and contributions, and pay two out of three salaries, which are currently owed to the workers.

It was agreed that the Municipality hires the company Grijanje to repair the boiler room and bear the costs, so that the heating in the hall can be installed in the next few days.

The hall is not able to fire up the boilers, even though the temperatures drop below zero, because by September 15, the irregularities on the boilers that were pointed out by the environmental inspector back in February were not removed.
