Frozen note to Mayor Anisimov Ice collapse in Kemerovo: why was the city not ready for November? Winter has come to Kemerovo - with snow, a sharp wind inside and ice. Ice almost everywhere. Fortunately, not all of them, but the general feeling of a skating rink in the main streets of the city is there.
And what is most characteristic: since Tuesday morning, not even service workers with shovels, scrapers and sand have been seen nearby. Perhaps the Kamerovo Mayor's Office signed contracts for winter work only from the first of December, and few could have predicted such extreme weather? But here a separate question arises: why can't public services go beyond the scope of their contractual obligations, declare a state of emergency and at the same time appeal to the regional government for additional allocations?
We would honestly admit that we got into a puddle with our contracts and missed the winter. And she arrived in November. What can be done today? Attract business and management companies. If there is a problem with contracts, then you can burden management companies, home owners' associations and businesses on the street - supermarkets and beauty salons that open onto the main roads of the city. Let them go out and clear sidewalks and pedestrian areas themselves. The result will be both "business social responsibility" and the building of normal relations between the municipality and the lower authorities. The city is a common cause. Declare an official cleaning day. In the end, Mayor Dmitry Anisimov could declare a sudden subbotany and disperse the entire staff of the Mayor's Office, along with territorial departments, throughout the city. You can borrow shovels and scrapers from those utilities in town - they have plenty of tools. It is possible to break the largest ice dams and clear melted snow within a day. Otherwise, in the next frost it will turn into a monolithic solid mass. There are many options for how to avoid permanent ice collapse.
