Hello! What document regulates the installation of benches at entrances: number and distance? Are benches at entrances necessary if in most cases they are used by marginalized individuals: they drink alcohol, smoke, talk loudly, mostly using profanity?

Answer: Ilya Dilman, Head of the Department of Housing and Communal Services, Transport and Communications of the Zarechny Administration

In accordance with Article 36 Housing Code RF to owners of premises in apartment building belongs by right of common shared ownership the land plot on which this house is located, with elements of landscaping and improvement and other objects intended for the maintenance, operation and improvement of this house. Owners of premises in an apartment building independently manage common property.

Based on the above, the question of installing or dismantling benches without disturbing current legislation, can be decided at a general meeting of owners of the premises of that apartment building, on plot of land which it is planned to carry out these works. The agenda of the meeting must include the issue of the owners’ consent to carry out and finance this work. The meeting must be held in accordance with the requirements of Art. 44 - 48 Housing Code of the Russian Federation. The decision is made by a majority of at least 2/3 of the total number of votes of the owners of premises in an apartment building. Minutes of the meeting with decisions taken you can send it to your management organization or to another organization of your choice to carry out the work.

For advice on the procedure general meeting owners of residential premises, you can contact the municipal unitary enterprise housing and communal services (Zelenaya St., 6, office No. 212) or by phone 60-34-48.

Additionally, I inform you that in case of violation of public order, you need to contact the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Zarechny Closed Administrative Unit, Penza Region.

IN Lately Various management companies and homeowners' associations often contact our company wanting to purchase metal ballot boxes. In the future, these ballot boxes will be installed at entrances. This is due to the fact that the Novosibirsk prosecutor’s office checks everything apartment buildings for compliance with rules and regulations.

The maintenance of the local area is regulated by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 04/03/2013 N 290 (as amended on 02/27/2017) “On the minimum list of services and work necessary to ensure proper maintenance common property in an apartment building, and the procedure for their provision and implementation”, “Rules for the provision of services and performance of work necessary to ensure proper maintenance of common property in an apartment building” and Resolution of the State Construction Committee of the Russian Federation dated September 27, 2003 N 170 “On approval of the Rules and Standards of Technical Operation housing stock».

In accordance with the regulations, each entrance must be equipped with a garbage can, and periodically employees of the management company or HOA must empty the garbage cans and wash them. As for the materials from which the urns are made, the rules do not establish any restrictions on the material from which the urns are made. However, as a rule, management companies and homeowners associations opt for metal ballot boxes, since they are cheaper in cost and lighter in weight than concrete ballot boxes.

We can offer both concrete ballot boxes and metal street ballot boxes. Among the concrete urns, people order from us, for example, an urn

Where do heavy metal boxes from porches go?

The improvement of the city consists of little things. And in the literal sense: Muscovites began to complain about the lack of trash cans in the city. More than a hundred complaints have already been submitted to the well-known city portal. Some of them have a clear fantastical connotation: trash cans appear at entrances for a couple of months, and then disappear. MK figured out who is responsible for trash cans in Moscow courtyards and whether they are even needed near our entrances.

There are no trash cans near the entrances at all! A huge number of people walk past the house to the metro and back. There is nowhere to throw the garbage. They just throw it on the ground! - Natalya Emelyanova, a resident of the house on Marshal Vasilevsky Street, complains.

And there are dozens of such messages about garbage where there should be a garbage can. Moreover, urns have a sad tendency to disappear. For example, Denis Pavlov, a resident of a house on Volgogradsky Avenue, complains that the trash can disappeared near the house because it was not concreted. The same thing happens on Dobrolyubova Street, on Leninsky Prospekt (“In this moment Of the six entrances, only one has a ballot box. It’s no wonder that it’s always crowded and garbage is scattered around”), on Rogova Street in Shchukin (“Our entrance has been deprived of a trash can again!”) and on many other streets.

At first glance, it seems that ballot boxes in the capital have begun to disappear en masse. However, municipal deputies interviewed by MK said that there is no citywide program for eliminating ballot boxes. As the municipal deputy of the Zyuzino district, Konstantin Yankauskas, explained to MK, the State Budgetary Institution “Zhilischnik” of the districts is responsible for the local area and trash cans like it.

If a ballot box has disappeared at the entrance, then the resident needs to contact this organization or the district government and ask for it back, the mayor explained. - Why are ballot boxes disappearing? Either they served their time, or someone took them away. They are sometimes stolen as an alternative place for smoking.

By the way, the simplest ballot box costs about 800 rubles. Who and why decided to cut down or dig up an ordinary piece of iron (even instead of an ashtray) is a big question.

Every year, a targeted list of improvements is formed in each district, says Jankauskas. - If the yard is included in this program, then, among other things, they can install a trash can at the entrance, on the playground and in other areas. This list, according to the law, is formed on the basis of requests from residents, municipal deputies, acts of OATI and on the basis of inspections of the territory carried out by the government. If there are no clear messages, then, as a rule, the project may not contain what residents need.

In practice the situation is slightly different. Residents can write similar appeals for several years, asking for the installation of artificial turf on the playground, even the same trash can, but receive the same answer from the council: the list has been agreed upon, your appeal was not included. Municipal deputies call the system for coordinating addresses of public amenities non-transparent. This seems to be true, since on the same city portal some of the relatively old complaints about certain areas (for example, Kuzminki) remained unanswered.

Butyrsky became the leader in appeals among the districts. True, most of them were written by the same user...

According to a recent walk-through (the last one was on Saturday, November 3, with representatives of the council and the State Budgetary Institution “Zhilischnik”), in several courtyards, installation according to such requests led to the fact that ballot boxes were placed near the entrances and “ate” one parking space... - Marina Denezhkina, municipal deputy of the Butyrsky district, told MK.

With a shortage of parking in Moscow courtyards, this real problem. You can carry a candy wrapper in your pocket, but you can’t put a car in your pocket... “Did they do good with their ballot boxes or not?” - the municipal deputy asks a rhetorical question. “They” are most likely people from Zhilischnik. Perhaps the answer will be given by Moscow government decree No. 1018 from 1999. Let's quote him: “At every entrance of residential buildings... trash cans should be installed. The trash cans are installed at a distance of 50 m from one another on streets of the first category, markets, train stations and other places where the population is crowded, on other streets, in courtyards, parks, gardens and other areas - at a distance of up to 100 m.”

Apparently, in order to maintain the required distance of 100 meters at the entrances, our utility workers either place trash cans wherever possible or don’t place them at all. But then they violate point number one...

By the way, Marina Denezhkina raised an old sore question: “Are trash cans really needed at every entrance?”

The ballot box can be placed near the playground, the deputy believes. - It is not needed near the entrance. Firstly, we then protect the entrance itself from negative acts that are called terrorist. Secondly, no one comes to the entrance to a residential building to smoke.

The story of ballot boxes and terrorism is really relevant. However, Moscow, it seems, has not yet decided whether it wants cleanliness near every house or not?

If our city is developing along the path of separate waste collection, then a separate trash can at the entrance is clearly not a means of achieving this goal, says urbanist Pyotr Ivanov. - And then it must be removed, because they can throw anything there. Even household garbage, if imperfect garbage chutes allow it. In many homes, the garbage chute does not open wide enough to accommodate a bag of garbage. And it’s easier to actually leave the entrance and throw your stuff in the trash. It's a matter of the rules of the game. If we play separate collection, we remove the trash cans and create garbage bins for this. It all comes down to city politics.

By the way, the capital is now trying to fight on two fronts: we seem to be for separate collection and the environment, but trash cans are still our everything... Meanwhile, in Moscow, in addition to projects for separate waste collection, transparent containers made of mesh are appearing for collecting empty plastic bottles. In particular, such containers were noticed in the yards on Varshavskoye Highway by residents of the Chertanovo Central district.

WHAT ABOUT THEM?

After a series of terrorist attacks in the 1990s, Paris authorities decided to abandon closed trash cans in favor of transparent bags with fastenings. This garbage collection option allows you to quickly respond to suspicious items, although local residents They immediately noticed that bags of garbage were ruining the streets of the city. However, the practice caught on - from Paris such bags also migrated to Italy and Malta.

After the terrorist attacks in the 2010s, French authorities briefly discussed the possibility of installing special heavy-duty urns that would contain the force of the explosion inside. However, this idea is very expensive and has not yet gained widespread acceptance.

We live in an apartment building. The question arose about repairing the local area (parking lot, flower beds, benches). We live on the first floor (about 1.5 m from the ground to our windows). Without our consent, they are going to install a bench and a trash can right under the windows of our apartment. The cleanliness and timely removal of the trash can is not guaranteed. People constantly gather near our entrance to drink, sit and talk. The audibility in the apartment is terrible. How can you prevent the installation of a bench and a trash can? Is it legal to install a bench and trash can at such a distance from the window?

The presence of installed trash bins is one of the requirements for the maintenance and operation of the housing stock. In accordance with clause 3.7.17 of the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of the Housing Stock, approved by Decree of the State Construction Committee of the Russian Federation dated September 27, 2003 No. 170, trash cans must be installed on the territory of each household, corresponding to the model approved by the local government body. The distance between trash cans must be at least 50 m on sidewalks III category, no more than 100 m - on other sidewalks, in courtyards, in places where small waste may be generated (in front of store entrances, etc.).

Clause 3.7.18 of the rules states that bins should be cleared of waste during the day as needed, but at least once a day, and washed periodically during morning cleaning.

Thus, when installing trash cans, there is an obligation to clean them at least once a day, and in the summer, also periodically wash them.

Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers dated October 2, 2018 No. approved the Rules for the placement and operation of infrastructure facilities for sanitary cleaning and household waste management.

The document reflects the procedure for handling household waste, taking into account the specifics of its types (large-sized, construction, vehicle waste, hazardous waste, etc.), as well as the collection, transportation and disposal of waste.

The following points deserve special attention.

Firstly , standards for the mandatory installation of trash cans in populated areas have been approved ( see table below).

Territory	Number of ballot boxes in a given area
At the entrances to the entrances apartment buildings
At each entrance (exit) to the buildings of organizations, regardless of their organizational and legal form, as well as retail facilities
At each entrance (exit) to the metro, underground and overground passages
At facilities intended to satisfy the cultural and everyday needs and recreation of the population (culture and recreation parks, forests, gardens, boulevards, squares, alleys, etc.)	1 PC. for every 800 m2 of object area and at a distance of no more than 40 m from each other - when installed along the line of paths and sidewalks
In markets and retail facilities (supermarket, hypermarket, etc.)	1 PC. for every 250 m2 of object area and at a distance of no more than 10 m from each other - when installed along the line of sales counters
At public transport stops
At entrances (exits) to parking lots and parking lots

In designated smoking areas
On beaches and territories of recreational areas adjacent to water areas (rivers, lakes, bays or ponds)	1 PC. for every 800 m2 of the facility area and at a distance of no more than 50 m from each other, with placement no more than 15 m from the water’s edge and 3-5 m from the green space
On local areas apartment buildings and central squares, sidewalks and pedestrian areas along main streets, as well as on bridges (depending on the intensity of use of the territory)	1 piece each at a distance of no more than every 50 m - with heavy pedestrian traffic and no more than every 100 m - in sparsely populated areas

! The entities responsible for cleaning areas and installing trash bins are.

Secondly , introduced requirements for the ballot boxes themselves and their use. Stationary street bins must have a tip-over mechanism and have a base to be firmly secured in place. And near trade pavilions (including mobile tents, stalls and trays) within a radius of up to 5 m, portable bins or with removable buckets inside for emptying are placed.

The bins must be emptied and cleaned systematically as they are filled, but at least once a day, and washed and disinfected at least once a month, or use special garbage bags (bags).

The bins are installed and maintained (cleaning, emptying, flushing, disinfection and repair) at the expense of .

Third , the procedure for organizing waste collection points is described. They must be removed from the windows of residential buildings, the boundaries of areas of children's institutions, recreational areas by at least 20 m, but not more than 100 m, and also be out of sight from transit transport and pedestrian communications, away from the street facades of buildings.

The area of ​​the waste collection point and the number of containers in it are determined in accordance with sanitary rules, norms and hygienic standards. However, containers must differ in color for separate waste collection and be marked with special signs and inscriptions. In total, there are four types of mandatory containers and three more additional ones ( see table below).

Purpose of the container (type of household waste placed)	Container color
Mandatory
Recyclable (representing a mixture of secondary material resources)
Organic (food and other biodegradable household waste)	Brown
Non-recyclable (other household waste)
Hazardous (used mercury-containing lamps, waste mercury thermometers, all types of storage elements, etc.)	Orange
Additional
Plastic waste
Waste glass and cullet
Paper waste

! Compliance with the described requirements is under the constant supervision of the Inspectorate for Control of the Generation, Collection, Storage, Transportation, Disposal, Processing, Burial and Sale of Waste from the State Committee for Ecology and its territorial divisions. Having discovered a violation, it issues an order and takes measures to bring those responsible to administrative responsibility for failure to comply.
