Autoland Holding (the major investor in the Ford Center motor show) admitted the center was set in operation even though there were some faults in it.

‘It was reported that the builder failed to provide the construction authorities with all the documents they needed, which can be classed as an administrative offence,’ Autoland’s Marketing Director Natalia Nagornova said to UrBC.

‘The authorities therefore imposed a fine on both the builder and their customer, and the former promised to supply them with the whole set of papers,’ she noted.

Ford Center started operating on June 21, 2007 despite having no operation permit and even used to claim everything was all right with the papers.
