A sign with a prohibition sign is posted on the entry gate. Access to the dojo, leisure reception (ALSH) and municipal youth, sports and community services at Espace Bel-Air du Hailan are closed until further notice. “Last week, technical services noticed that the bases of the building’s concrete columns collapsed abnormally. “They immediately intervened to install the supports, especially under the metal structure that provides access to the upper floor and thus to the dojo,” explains Mayor Andrea Kiss.

Before adding: “The architect and the construction company responsible for the work have been alerted. Analyzes are ongoing. Pending the final results, we preferred to launch all activities as a precautionary measure. Is this a structural defect or a smaller problem? It is up to the experts from design offices to decide. We will contact a specialized company that will conduct compression tests in order to verify the condition of the solidity of the whole and the quality of the concrete. »

Therefore, applying the precautionary principle requires finding temporary solutions for rehousing urgently. For municipal offices, it's done. Youth, Sports and Community Services will be repositioned in the Bel-Air Gymnasium Social Room. Children who are picked up on Wednesday at the Recreation Center will be directed to an after-school reception located at the center's elementary school. For associations that use dojos, the exercise is more precise. “We are in the process of researching with all the Hellenic associations. Everyone will have to put in a little effort, knowing that the slot machines will inevitably jump,” admits Andrea Kiss.

What makes the failure observed in the columns even more surprising is that the building was recently constructed. Please note that other facilities at Espace Bel-Air will not be affected by this closure.
