Mayor Makuzyan Orders to Strengthen Oversight

The process of closing down waste disposal areas in residential buildings continues in the administrative districts of Yerevan, with the collaboration of local authorities, cooperatives, and residents. This information has been reported by the Yerevan municipality.

During a routine working meeting at the city hall, it was reported to the mayor that approximately 860 waste disposal areas have already been closed. Mayor Hayk Makuzyan instructed to carry out consistent work in all multi-story buildings, emphasizing that only in this way can the issues of unpleasant odors, rats, and generally sanitary problems be resolved in the buildings.

Unregistered food vending trailers are actively being dismantled in these days. With the efforts of the community, 30 have already been removed, and 10 mobile points have been dismantled using the operators' resources. It should be noted that vending points have been operating in the city only with permission from the municipality starting this year. This requirement is stipulated by law, and the specific places and criteria for street trade are determined by council decision. A convenient electronic platform has been created for operators to register and organize their businesses.

By the order of Mayor Hayk Makuzyan, the process of dismantling illegal constructions continues in various administrative districts of the capital. Since June 22, a total of 47 unauthorized constructions have been dismantled. Thanking the police for their effective support, the mayor once again emphasized that the fight against the demolition of illegally constructed buildings, ignoring public interests, will be ongoing.

This year's plan for replacing elevators in the Yerevan municipality is being organized in such a way that the new elevators primarily serve those heroic soldiers who have been injured in the defense of the homeland, somewhat alleviating their burdens. For this purpose, necessary data has been analyzed, and 54 high-rise buildings have been selected where servicemen with mobility impairments reside. The purchase of accessible elevators has already taken place, and the measurement works are currently underway.

In order to ensure public order and traffic safety, enhanced oversight has been established over the work of drivers of minivans and buses servicing public transport in the capital. The relevant divisions of the municipality are particularly meticulous about the operation of new buses. They have been instructed to respond quickly to citizen complaints and eliminate instances of drivers smoking and talking on the phone while driving.

Addressing the issue of outdoor illegal trade, Mayor Hayk Makuzyan instructed the heads of administrative districts to strengthen oversight through daily inspections in the areas and take steps to eliminate the phenomenon.
