(Kazan City
KZN.RU, 26 February). Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov supported the
initiative of Kazan authorities for the inclusion of small architectural forms
in the program overhaul of yards. This was announced at today's V session of Kazan
City Duma.
In the
reporting session Mayor of Kazan Ilsur Metshin made a detailed report on the
results of work in 2015. One of the themes of report was a major overhaul of
yards. The Mayor said that over the past 5 years more than 1,200 houses
adjoining areas were repaired. "More than 80 thousand of Kazan residents felt
the positive effects of the work carried out," - I. Metshin said.
"If we
keep up the momentum, then in 6-7 years we will finish the repair in all the yards
of Kazan", - I. Metshin said. The Mayor thanked the President of Tatarstan
Rustam Minnikhanov for support in this matter and decided to continue the work
in the current year.
"Traditionally
we adhere to the principle - house repair - yard repair, knowing that it is important
for the residents not just to live in a renovated cozy home, but also to have a
landscaped yard, where there is where to walk for children and pensioners, and to
engage in physical activity for young people," - the Mayor said.
The Mayor noted
that the overhaul of households program includes work on asphalting roads and
landscaping of car pockets, and everything else is at the discretion of
management companies, whose capabilities are very different. And people do not
understand why the yards are repaired differently; head of the city designated the
problem and made a proposal to include small architectural forms in the program
of overhaul of yards.
"Small
architectural forms must be included as one of the elements. Since we came to
the site and made it, it must have a finished appearance. In this direction we
have heard you,"- President supported the initiative.
