Deputies of the Kryvyi Rih City Council will consider an electronic petition to terminate all of the city's contracts with the UOC, as reported on the website of the Kryvyi Rih City Council.
The petition was registered in early May by a resident of Kryvyi Rih Viktoria Boltaeva.
The petition calls for a decision to cancel all kinds of contracts, where the parties are local governments, municipal organizations of the city and the UOC with all of its structural subdivisions. In particular, it goes about the contracts of communal service, lease of communal property and communal land plots.
In a few days, the petition collected the 1,000 votes required for consideration.
As earlier reported, the court resumed consideration of the case on renaming the UOC.
