A working meeting on the issue of demolition of unauthorized construction projects was held in Sochi, chaired by the head of the city, Andrei Proshunin. The meeting was attended by the Chairman of the Municipal Assembly Viktor Filonov, representatives of the specialized department of bailiffs of the Krasnodar Territory of the State Medical University of the Federal Bailiff Service of Russia, the Directorate of Internal Affairs, the Prosecutor’s Office and the Directorate of the FSB . , heads of the structural divisions of the mayor’s office, reports the sochi1.ru portal.
“We are facing a common state task, the solution of which must be approached with the greatest possible care. For all objects in respect of which judicial decisions on demolition have been made, it is necessary to develop a mechanism for their implementation, including with the participation of investments or government funds.
We are in constant contact with the prosecutor’s office, law enforcement authorities and supervisory authorities. “We plan to use the land freed from unauthorized construction for the implementation of social and infrastructure projects, as well as for landscaping.” – said the head of Sochi Andrei Proshunin.
The mayor’s press service states that Less than ten percent of enforcement proceedings concern buildings in which people are registered.
On behalf of the regional governor Veniamina Kondratyeva The Sochi administration is in constant contact with the residents of problem houses and provides them with the necessary assistance. A state technical and construction examination was appointed for six properties, which will determine whether the houses are safe to live in.
All issues related to the identification and demolition of unauthorized construction works are examined by a permanent interdepartmental group and reported to the administration.
Meanwhile, in the material from October 24, the vice president of the public organization “Por los Derechos” Natalia Shakhvorostwho owns an apartment in a building that is being demolished, told the portal that in Sochi there are many unauthorized buildings where people live and the future fate of the houses is still unclear.
Helpless citizens began asking for help even during the previous mayor’s administration. Anatoly Pakhomovwho, although he did not decide anything, created work groups all the time.
Then, naive citizens began to expect positive things from his replacement:
“Since the year in which Alexey Kopaygorodsky When he became mayor, we began contacting him and asking him to organize a task force to solve our problems. Have personal contact with the administration and the prosecutor’s office. They didn’t answer us for a long time, they sent casualties. We found out where citizens’ meetings would be held in different areas and there we found Kopaygorodsky. They caught him in Khost. There he gave orders to all the district heads to find all the problematic objects, unite them, gather representatives and hold a round table.”
But this never happened. Meanwhile, the mayor, as a rule, referred victims to his deputies and department heads.
“He always hid behind the department heads. But it was also impossible to reach them; We met some deputies who could not help us. People stood for 12 hours to see deputy Kopaigorodsky Yurkovskybut no one reached him. Then Covid came and they started kicking us even more.” – Natalia complained.
The defrauded shareholders were informed that in Russia there is no law providing for an amnesty for unauthorized construction. After massive appeals, the administration began to pretend that it was trying to help the people by organizing a round table in the city Assembly, but at the same time filed massive lawsuits in court for demolitions:
“The administration itself did not know how many problematic facilities there really were in Sochi. We help them, we prepare a registry. But not everyone was invited to the round table; They were just scared. They haven’t communicated with us for many years. And finally we managed a round table with Kopaygorodsky, he condescended. But they took our phones away, they let us enter according to lists and in the end it turned out that no protocol was kept and it was just a meeting.”
And while the defrauded owners sought to meet with the mayor, the courts nullified their property rights, bailiffs initiated enforcement proceedings and disconnected high-rise buildings from communications (as described in EADaily).
They turned on the lights and water only after appeals to the media, the prosecutor’s office and a hunger strike.
However, the new mayor Andrei Proshunin, who replaced Kopaigorodsky, is also not in a hurry, according to social activists, to solve the problems of defrauded apartment owners in unauthorized buildings, but “that’s another story,” summarizes sochi1.ru .
