YEREVAN, May 30. /ARKA/. RA President Serge Sargsyan gives priority to the formation of condominiums and consolidation of ties between prefectures and the population.
“We attach special importance to the execution of the decisions made by the Armenian Government and Yerevan Municipality, as well as to the observation of laws,” President Sargsyan stated at a meeting with the heads of Yerevan’s condominiums.
As a priority issue the President singled out Armenian citizens’ self-organization, accomplishment of common tasks in Yerevan’s communities.
The second problem is “a merciless attitude” to the housing stock. The President expressed his concern over the fact that owner of flats in residential buildings will not understand they are actually co-owners of the buildings, which may create serious problems.
S. Sargsyan called for an open dialogue over the issues. He pointed out that this is “not only a problem of a street or yard, but a problem of the city.” “We cannot make Yerevan more comfortable and attractive to others without realizing the importance of the questions,” the President said.
The participants in the meeting pointed out the necessity for enlargement of condominiums and for improvement of relevant legislation. The representatives of condominiums welcomed a program of repairing elevators in Yerevan’s residential buildings. The program was initiated by Serge Sargsyan, when he was RA Prime Minister and is to be completed by the end of this year.
Summing up the results of the meeting, the President assured the participants that the proposals made at the meeting will be thoroughly discussed, and decisions will be made. “We must encourage citizens’ self-organization and, along with improving the social conditions, strive for the resolution of other problems,” the President said. -0-
