In Kamchatka, representatives of the Popular Front are asking to replace dead plants in a new park in Yelizovo, Kamchatka.Today reports.
The representatives of the public organization were approached by residents of Yelizovo, who, with the arrival of spring, instead of a beautiful park, observe a wasteland with dried plants on the embankment of the Avacha River. In the winter of 2024, landscaping and landscaping were completed here, which died.
The work on the embankment was carried out as part of a municipal program at the expense of federal funds. Sidewalks, bike paths, playgrounds and sports fields have been built. The contractor was Stark construction company, the contract price was almost 212 million rubles, of which about five million went to landscaping.
According to the expert involved, the main cause of plant death was poor control over the contractor’s actions during landscaping work. The planting was done incorrectly. Obviously, there was no replacement of the soil. In addition, before starting work, the contractor should consult with specialists, since not all planted seedlings are suitable for the Kamchatka climate. In addition, there is no drainage system in the park. And a greenhouse was set up for the young conifers – they did not remove the winter insulation at a positive temperature.
“We have prepared and sent an appeal to the Yelizovo city administration to strengthen control over such types of work. And they asked to replace the dead plants, as there is a three-year guarantee for the quality of the work,” the People’s Front reported.
