The initiative "from below"

In each village, without exception, there are plenty of "pain points", to overcome which is not always possible by means of a local budget and by caring people. This year the area has another opportunity to get extra financial support to the area – this is a competition of municipal projects, which started in the region under discussion, "people programs" initiated by the All-Russia People's Front. Collection initiatives with seats arranged in order to increase the interest of the population, social organizations and local governments in addressing social and economic problems of the territories in the formation of favorable conditions for residence. Become a member of any municipality may contest: it was enough to make people's aspirations into concrete projects, and before August 1, sending in an application to the committee. Importantly, as noted by the first deputy chairman of the Government of the Irkutsk region, Vladimir Pashkov to ideas drawn up on paper corresponded to three main criteria. Firstly, it should be no castles in the air, but clear and understandable proposals aimed at solving urgent problems of people and meet their needs. Second, it is important accurate and realistic implementation time, in any case not stretch over 10-15 years. And finally, third, – the financial support of the project. If required, we are willing to allocate funds from the regional treasury for the preparation of construction documents and passing examinations. Presentation of the first projects was held on August 4 in a conference call mode. Video link connected with the mayors of the regional center of Sayansk, Tulun, Cherm, Usolye-Siberian and Tulun, Cheremhovskogo, Zalari Kuytunskogo and districts, and governors and Winters Svirsk personally came to Irkutsk. A week later, experts tender committee heard representatives of 22 other municipalities. Basically it was a priority needs of a settlement, whether it's major overhaul of kindergartens and water supply systems, equipping schools and hospitals, building playgrounds or purchase of musical instruments for all your favorite folk ensembles. Projects Alarsky district has asked for 12.5 million of rubles for the construction of a three-storey house for young professionals, attracting money for these purposes as the local budget and sponsors, and Bayandaevsky – 9 million to complete construction of the ethnographic museum. In addition to domestic concerns such as snow removal (Irkutsk project to acquire snegoplavilnoy installed), waste disposal and drinking water supply, rural residents and concerned about issues of spiritual development. Thus, Zima Square area niruet organize on-site volunteer center (250 thousand rubles.) Cheremhovsky – mobile home culture (2 mln.). Comment: The Secretary of Political Council of the Irkutsk regional branch of "United Russia" Alexander Bitar: The main objective of the contest municipal projects – this is the solution of specific problems in the field, especially in those small towns that have tight budget, and the views of all residents in the distribution of income account is extremely difficult. Best deals (and they are divided into five thematic areas: social policy, education, health, sports and housing and communal services. – Ed.) Expected to fund the budget of the Irkutsk region. It is worth noting that, in determining the winners will take into account parameters such as relevance, social relevance and economic feasibility of measures, the use of innovative approaches to create new jobs, extra-budgetary sources of funding and the degree of citizen participation. And already this year, municipalities on the basis of rankings compiled by the commission will be available in the form of intergovernmental transfers and begin to address the important and urgent tasks that are called citizens. Winners of the competitive process, in accordance with regulations can expect to receive in September and October of one to ten million rubles. in regional programs. I want to mention that the proposed project should not include capital construction projects and activities that require serious funding. Now consider the mayoral initiatives coming directly from the residents of their territories. Since the budget money will be allocated in the short term, you need to correctly figure out how best to use them effectively. Of course, the competition – not a panacea for all ills municipalities, but I am convinced that these finances will be a great help to solve urgent problems identified by the public. I would like to note that the All-Russia Popular Front, founded on the initiative of Vladimir Putin, proposed a new format of relations between government and citizens of our country. It was discussed in the ONF "popular budget" and "popular software". I am sure we are working in the right direction. Residents of the Irkutsk region in this case – not bystanders, but active participants in the process. Of course, on the ground know best what the solution of problematic issues must be addressed first. I am convinced that the initiative and indifferent attitude of our countrymen will give a good result: if a person hurts the soul of a small country, it would make a lot of strength to live it better. The task of government – uslyamb people and support them. Send your questions to Alexander Semenovich Bitarovu you can specify a site or send www.bitarov.as on the editorial staff. All Regional News
