On August 25, YABLOKO leader Sergei Mitrokhin held a series
of meetings with the residents of Krymsk area which suffered
a
terrible flood in July.
The meetings had to identify the cases of non-fulfillment
by the authorities of their obligations to the residents who
lost their property in the flood.
People reported red tape in getting compensation for lost
property and money for repairs, continuous losing by officials
of their documents submitted in order to get a compensation
and small size of compensations insufficient for repairs.
The residents resented such bureaucratic formalism when people
were denied compensation.
Also a large number of houses in Krymsk were officially recognised
to be situated in the flooding zone, and President Putin promised
to move the residents to a safer area. Instead of implementing
this promise local authorities offered homeowners to conduct
repairs of their houses and refused to move them to other
areas.
The police tried to debar Mitrokhin from meeting the residents.
Also several cars with representatives of local administration
followed YABLOKO leader at the meetings. At the end Mitrokhin
managed to make the local officials cooperate in the solution
of the problems of the Krymsk residents.
Typical walls of the houses people have to
live in.
A handicapped man and his old age mother have
to live in a cold terrace constructed for a sumer period.
Typical basements.
