On February 13, the "Mirror" Club hosted Kamo Areyan, deputy mayor
of Yerevan. "The acting mayor of Yerevan has "inherited a capital"
with half-built districts from the ex mayor and today most of these
problems are either half-solved or are still under consideration",
Kamo Areyan said in answer to the announcements of the three former
mayors in "Mirror" Club today.
He noted that the social-economic provisions of the program must be
implemented in 2007.Then he enumerated all the expenses and investments
realised in the reconstruction works of the capital. He underlined
that all these expenses were financed by the capital circulation of
the Yerevan municipality.
Mr. Areyan also mentioned that the reconstruction of Komitas Avenue
by the financial assistance of the Lins foundation will be completed
this year. Then they will reconstruct the irrigation system and
Hrazdan canyon.
Chief Architect Samvel Danielyan referred to current reconstruction
of the capital and architectural norms.
Namely, he found the construction of Aghayan 19 and Teryan 56 grove
legal and in full compliance with the town building norms. Samvel
Daniel said that the estimation under which the state of the city
center is considered a "terrible mess" is exaggerated. Yerevan is the
capital of Armenian and the opinion that the city is overcrowded is
unwarranted. "The construction of blocks of flats in the city centre
is not forbidden; the construction must merely meet the constructive
criteria", said the chief architect.
While speaking of the certificates that will be given to the
Kozern residents, Mr. Areyan noted that there are certain technical
inaccuracies which are under consideration in the Cadastre State
committee and soon the issue will find its solution.
To note, just the moment the Chief architect was speaking of Kozern,
the garage belonging to the Hovhannesyans in Kozern was being pulled
down without any motivations.
