From the published one. Is Taishet a city or a settlement? Point in the age-old dispute

Story

Taishet owes its appearance to the Trans-Siberian Railway. During its construction, in the spring of 1897, a small settlement was founded, where in the fall of the same year, with the beginning of railway traffic, a station was opened, and in 1904 a locomotive depot was built.

At the station there was a one-class school, a medical and nutritional center of the Resettlement Administration. The peasant settlers who arrived here successfully developed the nearby lands, and soon agricultural and timber cargo began to leave the station.

The convenient location in the valley of the Biryusa River (navigable at that time), as well as the proximity of the railway, contributed to the rapid development of the new settlement. In 1906 it was transformed into a village, which in 1910 became the administrative center of the Taishet volost.

During the period of collectivization, Taishet was chosen as a place of kulak exile. In its vicinity, special settlements were created for dispossessed and exiled peasants. The flow of exiles began to grow after the decision of the Politburo of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks on the construction of the BAM in 1932.

In 1937, the village of Taishet was transformed into a workers' settlement, which immediately became a regional center in the Irkutsk region created in the same year.

In March 1938, the village received city status. At that time, there were two large sawmills, a sleeper impregnation plant, a locomotive depot and a car repair point, a brick factory, a machine and tractor workshop, a steam mill and two bakeries.

Since 1938, a number of Gulag units were stationed in Taishet, and it turned into a kind of “camp capital” of the Irkutsk region. The Western section of the BAM began here. Along the route of the future railway, camps and columns of forced labor camps (ITL) were placed. This dark period in the city's history lasted until almost the 1960s. During this period the following were stationed in Taishet:

— Taishetlag (ITL UNKVD in the Irkutsk region);

- Yuzhlag (ITL GULZhDS NKVD);

— Ozerlag (ITL No. 7 with a particularly strict regime for keeping prisoners, created in 1948-1949 on the basis of Yuzhlag).

Using the free labor of prisoners, the authorities hoped to quickly build the highway. It was planned to open train traffic on the Taishet-Padun section (350 km) in 1940, and on the Padun-Lena section in 1941. But these plans were never implemented. Partly due to the poor organization of work, their poor engineering training and high costs, but mainly due to the extremely ineffective labor of prisoners. It turned out that railway construction carried out by the GULAG system is significantly inferior in efficiency to the work on the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway and other highways in pre-revolutionary Russia.

Suffice it to say that from 1932 (from the decision to build the BAM) until the start of the Great Patriotic War, only 124 km of the route (from Taishet to Chuna) were prepared, while the roadbed was filled and engineering structures were built only on a section of 76 km, and the rails were laid for 58 km. (For comparison, let us recall that in pre-revolutionary Russia, up to 2 thousand km of railway lines were built annually. This figure turned out to be unattainable in Soviet times, despite the titanic efforts of the authorities and the gigantic sacrifices of the Gulag period.)

With the outbreak of the war, the construction of the BAM was stopped. The laid railway track was dismantled, and the rails were sent to the European part of the country for defense purposes. The main contingent of the Yuzhlag, together with car repair shops, was transferred to the front-line areas and used to repair equipment. Many were sent to penal battalions; the remaining prisoners in Taishet were transferred to logging and agricultural work.

After the war, the People's Commissariat of Railways proposed to the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR to resume the construction of the highway, using not only prisoners, but also prisoners of war for work. In the fall of 1945, in addition to Taishetlag and Yuzhlag, Angarlag was created (to work on the section of the highway from Bratsk to Ust-Kut).

Construction began simultaneously in several places on the future highway. Due to the high mortality rate, the camps were constantly replenished with new batches of prisoners and prisoners of war (39 thousand Japanese prisoners of war alone arrived at the end of 1945). But work continued to proceed slowly, and in October 1948 the Taishet ITL was liquidated, creating on its basis a special camp No. 7 - Ozerlag - with a stricter regime. At the same time, the number of prisoners was increased.

At the end of the 1940s. In two ITLs, about 100 thousand people were gathered for construction work. (in Angarlag - about 60 thousand, in Ozerlag - 40 thousand). This is almost twice as much as was used in the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway at the end of the 19th century. But even such a mass of free labor could not compensate for the extremely low organizational and engineering support for construction work. To some extent, the situation was saved by the “Harbin people” - our compatriots living in Manchuria, who after the defeat of the Kwantung Army in the fall of 1945 found themselves “enemies of the people” and exiled to build the road. Many of them had extensive experience in railway construction (participated in the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway and the Chinese Eastern Railway) and remained to work in Harbin after the revolution. The “Harbinites” stood out among other prisoners for their hard work and professionalism. Thanks to their participation, the construction of the highway went faster.

In December 1947, the railway line was laid to old Bratsk, where the first train arrived with four heated cars. This section was put into operation in the summer of 1951, after the opening of traffic on the new railway bridge across the Angara. And only in January 1959, a meeting was held in the village of Zayarsk dedicated to the commissioning of the entire Taishet-Lena highway for permanent operation.

With the help of prisoners, a number of residential buildings were built in the city (on Pushkin, Kirov, Kooperativnaya, Frunze streets, etc.), as well as some social and cultural facilities (a hospital, a hotel, a canteen, a bathhouse, several kindergartens, shops, barracks). Much of what was built during that period is still in use today.

Large human losses during the construction of the road, as well as the low efficiency of prisoners’ labor, led to the decision to postpone the construction of the BAM on the section from Lena to Amur. They returned to the implementation of this large-scale project only in 1974, declaring the BAM a shock All-Union Komsomol construction site. At that time, Taishet again became a stronghold and transit city for new railway construction.

On the eve of the crisis of the 1990s. In Taishet, a construction industry plant, an automobile repair and sleep impregnation plant, a garment factory, a meat processing plant, a food processing plant, a butter factory, a bakery, etc. were successfully operating and increasing their production volumes. Few of these once successful enterprises have survived. A construction industry plant, a garment factory, a meat processing plant, a bakery and a number of other enterprises ceased to exist.

From the published one. Is Taishet a city or a settlement? Point in the age-old dispute

“Taishet is not a city, but a settlement,” such statements can often be heard from quite respectable people who are quite confident in navigating their living space. “The status of a city was taken away from us a long time ago!” nameless Internet writers echo them and insist that we have no moral right to celebrate City Day, because the city of Taishet supposedly does not exist in nature.

And the same Wikipedia, which many mistakenly consider to be an authoritative source, insists that Taishet has had the status of an urban village since 2015.

“Biryusinskaya Nov” decided to sort out all these disputes and intricacies, to find out who is right and who is not quite right, whether we live in the city or in the village... The truth turned out to be very close.

So, statements like “not a city, but a settlement” are essentially as incorrect as statements that it is not winter, but evening. The terms “city” and “settlement”, which Taishet-haters confidently use, are not included in the same synonymous series, and therefore cannot be compared in any way.

But how, when and why did we become confused? The answer is obvious: this happened in 2005, when the whole country began to live under the new federal law on local self-government.

THREE-HEADED TAISHET

Let's figure it out. Until 2005, there were dozens of equivalent municipalities on the map of the Irkutsk region. Among them are “Tayshet City” and “Tayshet District”. These were independent administrative units; they were not part of each other and were not subordinate to each other. And they lived like good neighbors - exactly the same as the Taishet region now lives, for example, with Nizhneudinsky or Nizhneingashsky (even though the latter is part of another region).

Taishet24 news on Viber!

True, in the eyes of ordinary people, we - city dwellers and rural residents - were not neighbors, but literally one family.

Well, firstly, because the administration of the Taishet district was simply located on the territory of the city. This is indeed somewhat strange, and it would be much more logical for local authorities to be located on their own land (for example, in Old Akulshet), and not in a neighboring municipality.

Secondly, the closest social ties between the city and the village played an important role. We went to villages for fishing, to dachas, to visit relatives, and the villagers came to us to do their business. We always celebrated the country's main holiday together - Victory Day. Some joint interschool competitions were held... and so on. And the newspaper, in fact, was one, general, in which artificial divisions were also never carried out. Our mayors were faithful partners (they calmly found common ground on the vast majority of issues), and none of them tried to appear head and shoulders above the other.

And above all, a number of structures worked for two neighboring municipalities at the same time. For example, hospital, police, fire and tax services, pension fund and so on. In much the same way as today the Taishet Post Office, the military registration and enlistment office, the FSB and other departments work for the Taishet and Chun districts simultaneously.

The municipal formation “City of Taishet” included Taishet itself, as well as Biryusinsk and Yurty. The municipality had its own mayor. From post-Soviet times until 1998, this position was held by Anatoly Strelkov . He was replaced by Nikolai Shreiner , who ruled until December 31, 2005.

Biryusinsk and Yurty had their own mayors/heads of administrations (they were called differently in different years). They were appointed (and also dismissed) by the mayor of Taishet. At the same time, the mayor himself was elected by residents of all three settlements included in his composition.

The structure, although somewhat confusing (and perhaps illogical), is quite understandable.

At the same time, the municipal formation “Taishetsky District” included several dozen rural settlements. All their residents elected the mayor of the district, and he appointed (and, in his spare time, dismissed) the heads of local administrations.

In 2005, local government reform began. Let us briefly recall how this happened for us. Overall and overall the procedure was painless. At least for the population. But officials had reason to worry.

And that's why.

In 2002, residents of the city of Taishet (including Biryusa and Yurta residents) elected Nikolai Shreiner as mayor for a second term. His powers were supposed to expire in 2006.

In 2004, residents of the Taishet district elected Anatoly Zelezinsky , whose term of office ended in 2008.

The reform confused all the cards, since it pinched off considerable deadlines for both Schreiner and Zelezinsky - already on December 31, 2005, both had to leave their chairs. And we had to start living according to the new law with new management.

BIG DISTRICT AND SMALL TOWN

Along with this, the management structure also changed. Both municipalities – “Tayshet City” and “Tayshet District” – ceased to exist in their usual form from that same day. In their place, one large Taishet district appeared, which, in addition to traditional rural settlements, included those that had previously been part of the city of Taishet. That is, Taishet itself, and with it, Biryusinsk and Yurty. But not the holy trinity, but separately.

We all faced a difficult task: to elect a new mayor who united under himself everyone and everything in the Taishet district, as well as the heads of administrations of lower municipalities - Taishet, Biryusinsk, Yurt, Stary Akulshet, Tamtachet, Berezovka and all the rest. And several hundred deputies - members of the District Duma and each municipality separately.

And here every thinking person should have a question: how did it happen that the city of Taishet, large by local standards, was equalized and placed on the same level as Shitkino, Borisovo and other much smaller areas of the region? Couldn't it have been done differently?

Can. There was an alternative possibility of staffing the new municipalities. For example, the law fully provided for the possibility of creating, on the basis of the two municipalities that existed at that time, of equal importance, two others – also of equal importance. For example, the Taishet district could easily be preserved in its original form and combine traditional rural settlements.

According to the new law on local self-government, there was also the possibility of creating a full-fledged urban district, which could include either Taishet alone, or Taishet and several other settlements (the same Yurty and Biryusinsk). But one circumstance prevented the implementation of just such a mechanism - the absence of a common border between Taishet and Yurt (its presence was a mandatory requirement of the law that came into force).

The city authorities made an attempt to resolve this issue and keep everything in the same format. Therefore, they turned to the district administration with a request to give the city a strip of land that belonged to the district, which precisely separated Yurty from Taishet and created border fragmentation. But it was not possible to reach an agreement.

Therefore, it was not possible to implement the “Taishet + Biryusinsk + Yurts” scheme.

The “Taishet + Biryusinsk” option also somehow disappeared on its own.

— In such circumstances, it seemed logical to us to create a full-fledged urban district - with or without Biryusinsk, and in those conditions this could be done without the slightest problem. All you had to do was express your desire to the regional authorities. But under some pressure from above, they decided to form a single district: they say, let there be two in one, recalls the then deputy mayor of Taishet for economics, Alexey Greshilov .

Such a decisive step was also due to purely political motives. The mayor of Taishet, Shreiner, willingly gave the city to the district and agreed to its inclusion in the new municipality for the reason that he had hopes of winning the pre-reform elections and leading the entire district.

These elections took place in October 2005. As a result of a fierce struggle, Anatoly Zelezinsky won a landslide victory, who, of course, believed that the region in any form should be led by him and no one else.

NOTORIOUS POWERS AND ANOTHER VINAIGRETTE

Who and why came up with a new mechanism of local self-government? The main task of the reform is to bring power as close as possible to the people; make sure that the servants of the people are within walking distance of the voters. This goal can be considered achieved. Well, at least because even the smallest village has seven to ten deputies. And the popularly elected head of the administration is also always somewhere nearby.

Another thing is that the practical benefits from the proliferating officials are much less than expected. And not at all because the “servants of the people” are by nature stupid and inactive, but because of the traditional lack of money. One cannot expect any special effect from a government that does not have a ruble to its name. But this is a topic for a completely separate conversation.

Generated a new law and serious confusion. An ordinary citizen, who has little understanding of the intricacies of power and cannot understand in any way how, for example, the police differs from the prosecutor’s office, will never figure out which of the many officials to go to with what questions.

From the point of view of common sense, a resident of Taishet, who still cannot enroll his child in kindergarten, should address this problem to the city administration. But there they tell him:

“This is not our authority! Go to the district administration!”

The person is perplexed: why do we need a city administration if it cannot solve a trivial issue?

Or another example. At a meeting with the mayor of the district, residents, for example, Vengerki, complain about the terrible roads in the village. He retorts:

“Not my authority! Ask questions to your head of administration!”

People are again in quiet shock: what kind of mayor is this if he cannot even decide the issue of filling up a hole in the village?

The word “powers,” which still generates in human minds a sincere misunderstanding of the purpose of power, has long become almost a dirty word. And many people believe that officials invented the notorious “powers” ​​themselves and purely in order to do nothing.

This mess has been living in people’s heads for 15 years, only multiplying the opinion about the uselessness of power! Otherwise, for ordinary people, the reform did not change absolutely anything.

WHAT IS AN URBAN SETTLEMENT

But in the particular Taishet case, it gave rise to ongoing discussions about our status.

Therefore, let’s return to the topic that there is a “city of Taishet”, which is an urban settlement.

— A city is a geographical concept. And from this point of view, Taishet is precisely a city,” insists Alexey Greshilov . – We received city status in 1938, and no one took it away from us! No such decisions were made and the decree of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR 82 years ago was not canceled!

The federal law “On the General Principles of the Organization of Local Self-Government” nevertheless intervened and caused its own confusion, the interlocutor claims.

— This law defines a slightly different status - the status of a municipal entity. The phrase “urban settlement” is a purely legal term that defines the management model of a specific territory. It exists not for ordinary people, but mainly for officials. There is an overlap with the geographical term, but they are from completely different areas. And to say that Taishet is not a city, but an urban settlement, is as strange as saying, for example, that the street is not long, but beautiful. To say “I live in an urban settlement” is to some extent equivalent to the statement “I live in a subject of the Russian Federation,” continues Greshilov .

The same idea is emphasized by Aleksey Petrov :

— Taishet is a city in terms of the type of settlement. That is, as an administrative-territorial unit, it is a city. But if we talk about its municipal legal status, then this is an urban settlement. The status of Taishet as a municipal entity with the status of an urban settlement means that this municipal entity is part of another municipal entity. In our case, Taishet district.

THE MAYOR IS JUST THE MAYOR

There is another, no less serious, common misconception. The general public believes that the mayor of the Taishet district has the functions of almost the initial link of everything. Of course, this is far from true. And not only do dogs rush through our streets in packs without obtaining the mayor’s permission, but many other processes take place without his slightest participation. The statement that he is by nature the most important here, because “he is the mayor of the entire Taishet district,” according to the law, is fundamentally wrong.

For example, this does not correspond to reality in terms of the opinion that the heads of municipal administrations are subordinate to the mayor by default and cannot take a step without him.

They don't obey! And they have the right to do whatever they want - naturally, within the framework of their powers, the strict budget code and the current legislation in general.

“Wikipedia says that since 2015 the city of Taishet has been an urban-type settlement,” Alexey Greshilov is perplexed . - This is absolute nonsense. And what this has to do with 2015 is completely unclear. The same article states that since 2005, Taishet became an urban settlement and was transferred under the jurisdiction of the district. No one came under any jurisdiction! We are an independent municipal entity. There is a first level of government (urban and rural settlements), and a second (district). Everyone has their own powers, and there is no question of any subordination. Taishet is a completely independent unit, and the head of the city is in no way a subordinate of the district mayor, as would have happened under Soviet rule. And the district mayor has no right to give direct instructions. The city in its daily life is based on the budget, and we have our own budget and we form it according to the assigned sources of income. And neither the mayor, nor the governor, nor the president can intervene and say: “You do this or that, but don’t do that!”

Alexey Petrov says about the same thing, but in different words:

— The fact that a city is part of a district does not mean subordination in any form. Neither municipalities are subordinate to each other, much less their leaders. And this applies to all municipalities that make up the district. They are independent. In this case, we are not talking about subordination for the simple reason that the municipal district has its own competence, its own issues of local importance; They are mainly of an inter-settlement nature, they are more expensive, more complex in terms of ways to solve them and affect a larger area. The Taishet urban settlement, as an independent municipal entity, has other issues of local importance and other competence. And for this reason there can be no subordination: their competencies do not match. Another thing is that a municipal district, in principle, should coordinate the activities of the settlements that are part of it.

The candidate of legal sciences believes that an important point that needs to be mentioned is that the legislation does not provide for mechanisms for the responsibility of local government bodies of settlements to the districts. There is responsibility to the population, but it does not exist within the “district-settlement” system.

“What I mean here is legal liability, the ability to apply some kind of sanctions for violation of the law, for failure to fulfill powers,” explains Petrov . — Responsibility to the state is known. There is such a rule: the highest official of a subject of the Federation (governor) may, due to loss of confidence, remove the head of a municipal formation (rural, city, district) from office on certain grounds. There is a procedure for dissolving the representative body (local duma) of a municipality on the basis of regional law. But this is a responsibility to the state; it is borne equally by all municipalities - district, rural, city.

SO WHY SHOULD TAYSHET BECOME A CITY DISTRICT?

In 2021, the administration of the Taishet urban settlement initiated the creation of a full-fledged urban district based on Taishet, Old Akulshet and Berezovka. In their letter to the regional governor, our officials noted that in its current form, the municipality is squeezed within its borders with no prospects for development. That is, we objectively do not have land not only for the construction of schools and kindergartens, but even for the construction of a full-fledged solid waste landfill.

Attention was also focused on the fact that there are seven kindergartens and six schools located in the city, but they are subordinate to the district administration. The authors of the document also paid attention to the fact that residents of Old Akulshet and Berezovka fully use the city’s infrastructure: they attend schools and kindergartens, work at enterprises located in the city, and even partially use heat, water and electricity from resource supply organizations located in the city.

City officials are especially emphasizing a very unfair aspect: the industrial site of the Taishet aluminum smelter and anode factory is located on the territory of the neighboring Staroakulshet municipality. It is part of the district and at the same time receives tax deductions provided for by law into its budget.

However, the vast majority of people employed in this production live in Taishet. Consequently, they make full use of the city’s infrastructure and thereby create an additional burden on the budget. From this point of view, it would be much more logical to “move” aluminum workers to the city, which can only be realized by annexing Old Akulshet to Taishet.

Other advantages of the proposed transformation were also listed.

In this situation, the city will have the opportunity to develop territorially; work directly with higher authorities, bypassing the intermediate link (district administration); there will be an opportunity to comprehensively engage in the development of educational and cultural institutions; The city's revenue base will increase. And most importantly, the status of Taishet as a large city will correspond to similar cities in the region - Tulun, Cheremkhovo, Zima, Sayansk, Usol-Sibirsky and others.

This initiative did not find much enthusiasm among the regional authorities. However, I didn’t encounter any rejection either.

In their response, regional officials, citing legislation, stated that in order to resolve the issue of creating an urban district, a whole package of documents is needed. In particular, a number of decisions on this matter by those municipal councils whose interests are directly affected by the initiative.

In general, the regional governor’s office expressed its readiness to provide local authorities with the necessary advisory assistance.

But even here I found a scythe on a stone. First the sovereign Berezovka, and then the independent Stary Akulshet, categorically refused to join the city.

Therefore, apparently, we will not be able to return to the topic of creating a full-fledged urban district as soon as we would like.

But whether we like it or not, the issue is really ripe.

Everyone, deep down in their souls, understands that Taishet is a big village, but in order to please their feelings, it is imperative that this hole has the status of a city. It’s also funny to watch our “city dwellers” who find themselves in a real city, how they behave, how they look compared to the native city dwellers. Have you seen the movie “Stove Shops”? Look.

Dymon 07/13/2020 at 17:38 This has to do with individual people who do not know how to behave and the size of the city has nothing to do with it. And the concept of “village” is flexible, depending on what you compare it to. Biryusininsk is a village compared to Taishet, Taishet compared to Bratsk, Bratsk compared to Krasnoyarsk. When you come from Moscow to Krasnoyarsk, you also think: where are the people, and does anyone actually live here? Village-village.

Connection is not profitable for rural residents, if only because of the cost of electricity and other benefits for rural areas. And the road network in the villages will fall into disrepair, because the city authorities will have no time for it. There are no advantages of unification for the ordinary citizen. Only an increase in the status of the territory and some savings from the reduction of village administrations. At best, the city will have a couple of fountains or sidewalks.

Answer

Semen 07/13/2020 at 20:49 Zaika’s desire is understandable, to get money from the oil industry and anode and sell all rural land for individual housing construction and shops. Why is there no talk of annexing Timiryazevo? Also a neighboring municipality. What will the villagers get? Dead roads? They will lose rural allowances and tariffs, for what? Does a stutterer go outside his office to see how his population lives in the old city and at the mess in the courtyards of neighborhoods? There are many questions, but there is only one answer: no one will voluntarily join the city of Taishet, not with this leader at least. Maybe, instead of flattering yourself with empty hopes and appeals to the governor, you should take part in regional programs for repairing roads and many others, and not just share “people's initiatives” and squander the means of a “comfortable urban environment”!?

Answer

Lisa 07/14/2020 at 09:34 Or maybe we should lose rural benefits for the sake of the development of the territory and the future of our children, or will we continue to wait for benefits and benefits from the state? You are indignant that Zaika only needs income from the oil industry and anode, but you see a lot of money from them, so if you are so rich, why are you so afraid of losing these rural benefits? Yes, Taishet needs land so that it can attract investment, so that there is a greater chance of participating in various federal development programs. I understand that no one has extra money and every ruble counts, but if we don’t think about the future and live one day at a time, then this will not lead to anything good

Resident of the Taishet urban settlement 07/14/2020 at 11:20 You propose that teachers, educators, and nannies begin to receive a voluntary salary less and pay more for electricity. Do they need it? What will their territory receive in return? Yes, they will be forgotten the very next day after the unification.. If there was order in the city in the private sector, maybe the villages would want to join. And so, for now they have more order.

AKM 07.14.2020 at 17:14 What noble speeches! Take away from the villagers, add to the townspeople. Bravo! What volunteer group are you in? Maybe the townspeople would better chip in and at least restore order in their own yards? The villagers do this at their own expense. And not only in our yards, but on the hectares adjacent to our homes, we remove garbage and bottles that have flown from your cars. And for you, the townspeople, we will clean up your garbage from the shores with our own efforts.

Answer

Lelya 07/14/2020 at 02:10 I want to ask how many residents of Taishet move to Berezovka, which has an oil industry and free water, to Akulshet with its anode, or to the same Biryusinsk with its Kovpinets and cinema? And the issue with kindergartens really needs to be regulated, since “Field of Miracles” is a village, that means the kindergarten should be rural. Akulshet is selling land for individual housing construction, why isn’t he thinking about a place for a kindergarten?

Fighter for justice 07/14/2020 at 08:46 Semen, of course I apologize, but you are talking such nonsense, if there is a city district, then there will be elections, then the flag will be in your hands, choose your vaunted monk or someone else, but from stutterers, you shouldn’t brush it off like that, he did so much for the city, all the previous ones are far from him, everything has just been forgotten or you are young and don’t know anything, but we suffered through without water, without light, we didn’t pay attention to other problems, but now we’re soft saying “you’re fed up”, and if money were allocated for the city and there would be roads, it’s always easy to talk about how easy it is to break and destroy everything, but a stutterer, proposing to create a city district, is thinking about people, and not about himself, like you you say, because he is personally at risk, because the monks and the pest are stepping on his heels

Answer

Semen 07.14.2020 at 13:04 Fighter for justice, if the head thought about people, then in place of vacant lots and abandoned houses, not just regular shops would appear, but social facilities, playgrounds and other landscaping elements. You give an example of the lack of water and light, but in the 90s and early 2000s there was such a situation in all cities. But for some reason, many cities got out of this mess, but Taishet is still stuck in the 90s, only acquired a few fountains.

Answer

City dweller 07.14.2020 at 13:53 what kind of vacant lots are you talking about, there is no land in the city for a long time, and the shops are being built by the owners of these vacant lots, and to ask what they are not going to build for anyone, we have playgrounds in every yard, in every school and children garden and it was the city administration that installed them, although school and preschool education are the powers of the district, and from them nothing but devastation and collapse, I completely agree with the fighter for justice, but more fountains are needed, they also promised to install them on our side, we will be glad

Answer

AKM 07/14/2020 at 17:27 Before you put the world in order, put your own house in order. And don’t meddle with your charter in someone else’s monastery. First, find out how much the city administration has raised funds from other levels? How many times have the mayor and his team visited the government for this purpose? And what did they ask for? All social facilities belong to the district. The city has only retail outlets. Well, why is a city administration needed in principle? First you need to merge and abolish the redundant mayoral corps. Now they will elect deputies to the district duma. Including the districts of the CITY OF TAISHETA. Does anyone even understand why deputies from the city are in the city duma and in the district duma? What powers and issues does the Duma Duma have? Double budget or what? What legislative issues are resolved by the Duma Duma? And what is all this all about?
