Spring concession to the workers

In the Novosibirsk region, the maximum level of increase in utility tariffs is reduced from 15 to 4 percent. This was stated by the governor of the region Vladimir Gorodetsky at a press conference, Taiga-info reports .

From January to April, seven rallies were held in Novosibirsk against raising tariffs for housing and communal services. Participants of the shares demanded to cancel the order of Gorodetsky, which establishes the growth of tariffs in the regional center on average at a level of 15 percent despite the fact that the government set it 4 percent.

“I hear opinions not only on rallies, I met with the trade union, the Popular Front,” the head of the region emphasized.

At the same time, Gorodetsky called the previous decision reasonable to increase the fee for housing services. “From the recommended 4 percent, we decided to increase to 14.9 percent. This decision passed the official check of the FAS. The increase in tariffs was recognized as objective,” the governor said. “But at the same time, the contributions for overhaul increased, and in February the federal government decided to recalculate according to ONE (common needs. - Ed.) And in January, 1/12 took place. This also fell as a load on the inhabitants. "

At the same time, Gorodetsky noted that in Novosibirsk and areas there is a large wear of communal networks, which exceeds 70 percent. “When a one -time criticism comes on large diameter networks, it will lead to a disaster,” the governor warned.

Meanwhile, the organizers did not cancel the next rally against the growth of housing and communal services tariffs. Among the requirements of the protesters are the resignation of the governor.

From July 1 of last year , on average, 4 percent of the housing and communal services increased by 4 percent . "It should be clarified that we are only talking about utilities - this is water, electricity, heat and gas. Prices for housing services are the maintenance of the adjacent territory, the current repair of common property, cleaning of the entrances, etc. - are not subject to state regulation, but are established by managing companies in agreement with homeowners," the Ministry of Construction explained.

Housing and communal services tariffs cause protests of citizens throughout Russia. On Monday, it became known that a resident of the Kandalaksha district of the Murmansk region Elena Solotenkova announced a hunger strike in protest against double heating. Back in 2003, her apartment, according to the regulations currently currently and, with the permission of the municipal authorities, was transferred from central heating to electric heating. However, in 2015, the municipal unitary enterprise "Housing and Utilities Services" showed the woman a receipt for heating with accumulated debt. The debt already exceeds 210 thousand rubles and continues to grow.

On March 4, a rally was held in Kandalaksha in defense of the rights of residents of individual apartments of apartment buildings that switched to electric heat. About 150 northerners took part in it. About 600 apartments were transferred to the Kandalaksha to electric heating. However, in 2015, Murmanenergosbyt put up the receipt of the receipt with local residents of the receipt to pay the debt for central heating, in some cases the amounts exceeded 100 thousand rubles. MES also began to display monthly payments for a service that the townspeople actually did not receive.
