The Zhytomyr Oblast is one of the leading oblasts actively implementing the decentralisation reform. 45 amalgamated hromadas have already been established in the oblast. Amalgamation process is still ongoing and new AHs will be formed in future.
Therefore, the existing AHs of the Zhytomyr Oblast already have a positive experience of solving urgent problems on the ground with the support of the state and oblast authorities.
The Ovrutska urban AH, formed less than a year ago (in October 2017) is a good example of local management. Although 13 April 2017 is considered to be the date of the AH establishment, however, the AH began to fully operate only after the elections of the head.
At present, construction and repair work is carried out on several sites of the Ovrutska urban AH. According to Oksana Levkivska, head of the economic development department of the Ovruch City Council, the work on conversion of the boiler house to the physical training and recreational complex is underway in the Ovrutska AH. Reconstruction takes place at the expense of the State Fund for Regional Development. The hromada plans to put the facility into operation by the end of the year. Besides, two artificial-surface sports grounds are being built, and should be completed by August 2018.
In addition to sports facilities the AH cares about healthcare institutions. Thus, insulation of the facade of the outpatient clinic of the Ovruch Central Hospital is being carried out.
Last year, a new sports ground was opened, and this year it was modernised and equipped with new sports zones.
