The all-Russian online voting for improvement projects will last until June 12. Residents of the country will be able to choose the territories that will be improved next year. The voting is being held within the framework of the federal project “Formation of a comfortable urban environment”. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
“Improvement of courtyards and public areas changes the appearance of populated areas, improves the quality of life of citizens in municipalities. Thanks to this work, new points of attraction for people are created in the regions, which also stimulates the development of small and medium-sized businesses, the creation of new jobs, and the growth of domestic tourism. It is important that the initiators of changes and the formation of a comfortable urban environment are the residents themselves. All-Russian voting for improvement objects has started on the platform suburban medium. It will be held until June 12. This event has been held since 2021 as part of the federal project “Formation of a Comfortable Urban Environment”. It is included in our new national project “Infrastructure for Life”. This year, more than 6 thousand objects from about 1.7 thousand municipalities were submitted for the all-Russian online voting. Compared to last year, the number of objects has increased by 630,” said Marat Khusnullin.
Both improvement projects and specific design projects for spaces that were previously selected in the region are put up for voting. The list of objects put up for voting is formed by municipalities taking into account proposals from residents. Any person over 14 years of age can vote for a specific project.
“For the fifth year now, voting has united the residents of our country and given them the opportunity to make a unique contribution to the development of their region. This year, the number of municipalities represented in the all-Russian vote has increased by 81. Last year, 17.2 million people took part in the vote. This shows the growing interest of citizens in the processes taking place in their regions. Every vote matters, and it is thanks to the active participation of residents that we can identify the most pressing needs and implement them,” said Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities Irek Faizullin.
For the fifth time, the all-Russian online voting will be held with the participation of volunteers. Every year, the number of volunteers involved is growing thanks to the support of the platform for good deeds “Dobro.RF”. If in 2021, just over 11 thousand volunteers were involved in the project, then last year there were already more than 200 thousand. The main tasks of the volunteers are to talk about the areas planned for improvement, help residents vote and answer basic questions about voting. This year, to further involve citizens in voting, volunteers will use a special mobile application “Gosuslugi. Volunteer”.
“We see great interest from volunteers in participating in this project. Last year, they collected more than 70% of residents’ votes, which is a very significant contribution. Through the all-Russian vote, residents actually participate in the development of their cities and the transformation of territories, and volunteers in this regard fulfill an important mission of conductor of initiatives that change our lives and the environment of Russian cities for the better,” emphasized Artem Metelev, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Youth Policy and Chairman of the Board of the Dobro.RF Association.
You can also take part in the voting with the help of volunteers in public places, as well as in the mobile application “Gosuslugi. Let’s Decide Together”.
