According to one of the residents of the neighborhood, Renato, in some patios the location of the containers was chosen correctly, but there are cases in which the neighbors began to shake their heads, why such a solution was chosen. After installing underground containers, residents lost 5-6 parking spaces in a yard, and their deficit was already there.
“At 41 Kretingos Street, the house containers are installed in the driveway. So there is nowhere to build those machines. In addition, they were built in February-March, but they are not working yet ”, the neighbor was surprised.
Similar problems are seen in other parts of the city, as underground containers are installed throughout the city, but only a few work.
Take into account detailed plans
How 15 minutes The situation was commented on by the Head of the Municipal Environment Directorate. Specialist Giedrė Budreikaitė, when selecting sites for semi-underground container sites, first of all, the approved detailed plans of the territories are taken into account.
