City Hall said consolidation has been finalized on six buildings this year and works are advanced for 23 others. It said buildings under consolidation include residential buildings and decaying historical monuments.
Of the 2,550 buildings at risk in the city, around 350 buildings are at major risk of collapse in case of an earthquake and City Hall planned to consolidate them all by end of 2020.
City Hall allotted RON105 million (EUR23 million) in 2019 for consolidation works.
To manage the consolidation issue, City Hall set up two municipal companies, owned by the city, which have a total of 700 employees, including legal experts, economists, engineers and workers.
