Residents of a building in Panevėžys are alarmed by dangerous icicles hanging above their entrances, raising concerns about safety and inadequate building management responses.
Residents of a building on Vilniaus Street in Panevėžys are expressing frustration over the hazardous icicles and snow piles accumulating on their roof, presenting real dangers to passersby. Evelina, a concerned resident, highlights that despite paying a monthly fee of 41 euros for building maintenance, they have received insufficient assistance to resolve these issues. The massive icicles are not only threatening to fall on residents but also affect the high foot traffic in the area, which includes children playing and seniors running errands.
The response from local authorities has been limited, only placing warning signs around the area without providing any real solutions to enhance safety. Evelina indicates that the entrances to the stairways remain exposed and unprotected, raising concerns particularly among the elderly residents who cannot manage the physical threats posed by the icicles. The lack of action has left many feeling helpless and at risk, as they navigate the hazards on a daily basis while going about their routines in this busy central location.
The situation reflects broader challenges concerning building maintenance and safety regulations in Lithuania, emphasizing the need for urgent attention from local housing authorities. The residents call for better enforcement of safety measures, and the community highlights the importance of collaboration between homeowners and municipal services to ensure safety in residential areas, particularly where children's activities and elderly residents are involved.
