Ho Chi Minh City plans to collect temporary residence fees when relocating dilapidated apartment buildings

Previously, the District 1 People's Committee relocated residents from many dilapidated old apartment buildings before finding investors, such as the apartment building at 155-157 Bui Vien and Block E of the apartment building at 518 Vo Van Kiet. The District 5 People's Committee also relocated 20 households from the apartment building at 440 Tran Hung Dao to the An Phu apartment building. Because there was no investor and no compensation plan had been established, Articles 18 and 23 of Government Decree 69/2021 could not be applied to calculate temporary housing allowances.

According to a proposal from the Department of Construction, households subject to urgent relocation from severely damaged apartment buildings at high risk of collapse will be provided temporary housing in state-owned apartments, with residents responsible for managing and operating costs. Rental costs will be calculated in two installments.

Specifically, during the period before a developer is selected, tenants of state-owned houses must pay temporary housing rent at the social housing rental rate; for private apartments, the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee will arrange temporary accommodation in state-owned apartments without charging temporary housing fees. Once a developer is selected, the developer must pay housing rent and other costs according to the approved compensation plan.

Therefore, the Department of Construction recommends that the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee seek the opinion of the Ministry of Construction on the above-mentioned temporary housing fee calculation method to facilitate its application by localities, as the entire city still has many old apartment buildings that need to be renovated or rebuilt.
