The owners of the stands in the Barekamutyun underground station are
worried about the process of the modernization of the stands. According
to one of the owners, Armen M., "We are afraid that they will take
away our stands". Head of the commerce and service administration of
the Yerevan municipality Karen Gevorgyan said that the issue has been
regulated with the district municipality.
Mr. Gevorgyan informed that until 2008 all the stands and kiosks
in the streets of the capital will be modernized. The municipality
has calculated over 6700 such stands. A special committee has been
created to check their documents and the legality. In case of not
having proper documents and/or not having modern appearance the stands
will be deconstructed.
Mr. Gevorgyan mentioned that this is the first time during the last 15
years they have ever deconstructed a stand. 152 of the 386 stands in
Kentron community are to be deconstructed. The communities of Ajapnyak,
Isakov, Davtashen, Sebastia and Andranik are to come next. There are
700 stands there 300 of which are subject to deconstruction too.
