Each new public hearings in the next long -suffering area of Balashikha are very similar to the previous ones. All the same school dining room, all the same deputy head of the administration of Mr. Dedkov in an embrace with a stand of the master plan and a “glass jar” on the head, from which all the requirements, requests, prayers and cries of residents who came to the event are bounced.
Mr. Dedkov’s conversation with the residents is increasingly reminds not of public hearings (from the words “listen” and “hear”), but to the July “Italian strike” in the State Duma of the Russian Federation regarding the law tightening the rules of meetings and rallies.
Only instead of the deputies of the SSRs who tried to make hundreds of amendments to this extremely controversial law, in the arena residents of Balashikha. And the role of the speaker of the lower house, who deflected the amendments one after another, is performed by Mr. Dedkov. Know yourself, reads how "our father" - everything is according to the law and urban planning standards!
So it happened yesterday in the New World, where residents have been trying to stop cutting groves for the construction of the next high -rise buildings for several years for several years for several years and protest against the seal of housing development.
Although it should be noted that both sides are studying and improving in the process of hearings. The administration is increasingly trying to take the issue of specific pain points to more blurry and fantastic plans for construction on the site of Balashikha New Vasyukov. People make up official requirements, collect signatures and require all this to the protocol.
The lack of dialogue and the division of the audience into two warring camps (power and people) is visible each time more clearly. Listen, and even more so to hear what exactly the inhabitants need, no one seems to be going to.
And sorry. After all, more than once at public hearings there were proposals to create a certain public council of representatives of the administration and citizens. And within the framework of this council, to consider all the proposals of the inhabitants, to clarify the need for certain changes, to finally convey to the public, which will improve for each of us. Instead, again, one -sided communication - "Your amendment is rejected!"
For us, not only everyone decided for a long time, but they do not even try to create the illusion of dialogue.
