The deputies of St. Petersburg in the first reading adopted a bill that will allow the panel “Khrushchevs” and resettle the residents - even if the house is not emergency
Last week, June 23, the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg in the first reading adopted the bill “On Amending Certain Laws of St. Petersburg on the integrated development of territories in St. Petersburg”. In the media, he was called the bill "On Renovation."
The document applies to demolition rules in the city of old buildings and the construction of new ones in their place. Here's what follows from the explanatory note to the bill:
- Typical buildings built in 1957-1970 - panel "Khrushchevs" - will now be subject to demolition. Moreover, they can be demolished by whole quarters. The authorities will choose not specific buildings involved in the renovation program, but to determine the “boundaries of [its] territory”.
- The decision on the demolition will be made by the government of St. Petersburg. More precisely, a certain authority that will appoint Smolny.
- If they want to demolish the house, the tenants are settled. The authorities will give them apartments the same or, if they pay, a larger area in another house.
- Residents may disagree with the demolition of the house and resettlement. By their decision, the house can be excluded from the renovation program - but for this they must conduct a general meeting of owners, at which more than a third of residents will speak out against. Moreover, residents must hold this meeting within 60 days from the date of publication of the authorities on the demolition of the house. If the decision supports two -thirds of the residents, the opinion of one third is not taken into account.
Judging by the map of the houses of St. Petersburg , under the resettlement, in theory, a significant part of the houses in the areas of Malaya Okhta, Polyustrov, the Metro Stations Avtovo, the Victory Park, the International River, the Black River, the Special and Academic.
At the site of demolished houses, new housing will have to be built. It can be any height and parameters - the norms will determine the authorities
The author of the bill "On Renovation" is the governor Alexander Beglov. The document was developed for the implementation of the Federal Law on the integrated development of territories adopted at the end of 2020.
The federal law was adopted for the resettlement of people from emergency and dilapidated housing, the State Duma website said . According to him, the authorities should resettle residents of certain houses that do not fall into other programs, provide them with apartments, and at the site of the resettled houses, developers can build new housing. Regional authorities will be able to attract them through contests or auctions, the document says.
In St. Petersburg, new housing can be of any parameters - this follows from the bill, which is now being considered in the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg. The authorities themselves will be able to establish the maximum height of buildings, the density of development, the ratio of the built -up and undeveloped territory in a separate section, the minimum indentation of construction objects from the boundaries of the site, and so on. At the end of last year, deputies adopted the corresponding bill in the first reading.
Some deputies criticized the bill. The main complaint is that resettled houses will be able to settle in any area, even for a room
Only 34 deputies of St. Petersburg voted for the adoption of the bill. Three refrained, 11 - spoke out against.
The deputy from Yabloko Boris Vishnevsky sharply criticized the bill, speaking in the Legislative Assembly. He emphasized that, according to the document, residents from Khrushchevs will be able to evict in any place of the city - “at least behind the Kadom. In high -altitude ghetto, like those who have already been built in Shushara or on Parnassus. ” According to him, this will lead to "deportation of residents and stripping of quarters convenient for life for the sake of super -profits of developers."
In addition, as Vishnevsky says, even if the tenants of the house abandon the demolition, they can still get the “building-in-o-cloth construction” in their quarter-in the place of Khrushchev, located in the neighborhood. “The project does not provide any guarantees of land security for the“ refusing ”houses,” the deputy from Yabloko explained.
-If the project is adopted in this form, it will introduce Moskovskoy renovation in St. Petersburg. When a long -lived quarters with good transport accessibility, with a social woman, and green spaces go under a bulldozer. And citizens will be evicted. That is how this has been organized in Moscow in recent years, and in many cases it leads to serious conflicts with residents who do not want forced eviction.
Marina Shishkina, a deputy from Fair Russia, also opposed a sharply against Fair Russia. “This is not about people, this is a law about builders,” she said . In her opinion, the law in the current form suggests that the renovated territories “in auction mode” are given to developers, and residents remain “one on one” with them.
- When we give this to the developer directly, we can talk about creating a comfortable urban environment, nor about creating affordable housing. <...> Of course, the developer will desire to compensate for his costs at the expense of high -rise buildings, due to meager infrastructure, and so on - his goal is understandable <...> We will stuck in the courts, we will not help residents.
Shishkin completed her performance with a reference to the 40th article of the Constitution: "No one can be arbitrarily devoid of home."
Another deputy who publicly opposed the adoption of the bill is Irina Ivanova from the Communist Party. She noted that she had grown up and lives in Khrushchev on the Vyborg side.
- According to the new law, it turns out that now it will be possible to demolish my house and neighboring ones, and regardless of their real state, just for the year of construction or series. To build in their place new multi-storerooms-humanities, and we will move us somewhere to Shushary <...>. One gets the impression that everyone who voted for this law does not live in city apartments, but in mansions or villas. And they can hardly imagine a state of affairs.
Criticizing the bill, deputies turned to the experience of renovation in Moscow, which began in 2017. Then the renovation caused in the capital of rallies by both her opponents and her supporters. The former were unhappy that their houses did not fall into the list of resettlement, the latter considered the program “violent resettlement” of people and “deportation”. At the same time, in Moscow, residents of demolished houses were resettled within their own regions.
Petersburgers criticize the bill in social networks. Some note: questions about renovation are removed from the Beglov page in VKontakte
On VKontakte, under posts about renovation in district groups, you can find dozens of comments of dissatisfied Petersburgers:
- “It is curious, and what decision is provided for in case part of the residents of the house“ for ”, and part“ against ”? People invested in repairs, adjusted to the infrastructure, and these are not only clinics and passport table, also places in kindergartens and schools, subscriptions in sports clubs were paid, parking spaces or garages are possible ... ”, wrote Svetlana D. in the group of “ Protection Committee of St. Petersburg ”.
- “Poor renovated. We were settled for 8 years. And just many with Malaya Okhta and left for Kolpinsky district. Not all, of course, but still, ”Natalya S. shared her experience
Petersburgers are also afraid of falsifications of protocols of the meeting of owners. In the group "Says Nevsky District | The cheerful village ”Lyubov E. suggested :“ They will simply demolish those houses that are located in places necessary for the builders - nothing new. The experience of our “managers” falsification of elections/polls is huge. ”
According to the user of Catherine K., under the posts of Alexander Beglov in VKontakte, the issues of Petersburgers about the bill are deleted. "Paper" really did not find comments about renovation on the Governor's page.
The bill may still be amended. But the government of St. Petersburg wants the document to be accepted in accelerated mode
The first reading of the bill took place in the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg on June 23, the second was scheduled for June 29. In early July, deputies usually go on vacation.
Boris Vishnevsky said that the Yabloko faction will amend the bill. In particular, they want to take into account its technical condition when deciding on the demolition of the house and that the territory for renovation should be determined not by Smolny, but by the law of St. Petersburg. In addition, in their opinion, the residents should be given to hold the meeting not 60 days, but 120.
Marina Shishkina, speaking in the Legislative Assembly, said that the faction of “Fair Russia” would also prepare amendments, but which ones have not yet been specified.
Whether these amendments will be considered is unknown. Governor Alexander Beglov accompanied the bill submitted by a letter , in which he asked to consider the document “in priority”.
To the question about the reasons for such a rush, the representative of the governor in Zaks, Konstantin Sukhenko, replied : “Since April 13, we are in some vacuum, we must solve the question, this is obvious.”
