Simon Gentville’s actions see the hidden intentions

Juozas, a Vilnius resident, has come to his garden every spring for 35 years. Greenhouses plant vegetables.

There is also a garden hut in the garden, where Juozas does not live, only time garden tools.

In the Garden Quarter, real gardeners who are just because of greenhouses or gardens are already a minority. Many live here in their own home.

Mr Gentvilas appealed to the Constitutional Court to clarify whether the regulation in the garden communities was in harmony with the Constitution. In his view, they should be abolished and the garden areas are connected to cities.

« We want to save the inhabitants of gardeners’ associations so that they are integrated and become urban areas, » Gentvilas explained.

According to the politician, the garden community is a Soviet legacy.

« The television tower is a Soviet legacy and we are Soviet. No need to change, everything is very neat, we live well, » said Henrik Badok, a resident of transverse gardens.

The chairman of the Chamber of Architects explains that connecting gardens to cities would make it easier to expand infrastructure – sidewalks, lighting, wider streets would appear.

« To do spatial planning solutions: a detailed planning project, other things that would provide for infrastructure development, road installation in those areas. Now it is not possible because the purpose is agriculture, » said Algimantas Pličas, chairman of the Lithuanian Chamber of Architects.

The chairman of the gardeners does not believe that only to help residents. After analyzing the proposed draft law amendment, he noticed that they were hidden.

« Doubling the density of the construction of gardeners ‘communities – to build two two -dimensional four -acres of a residential house from one of the Nurn dwellings, » said Roma Vaitekūnas, Chairman of the Lithuanian Gardeners’ Association

« The law is said to be a pillar, but it can be bypassed. It really needs to be seen because there is a potential danger, » said Andrius Klišonis, President of the Lithuanian Association of Municipalities.

Doubling the density of the construction of gardeners’ communities – to build two two -dimensional four -acres of a residential house from one of the navy dwellings.

Mr Gentvilas claims that the abolition of the garden communities will only be positive.

« We are talking about the 21st century Lithuania with sewage management, paved several in the city territories, lighting, sidewalks, with the order that you can influence and appeal through self -government, » the Seimas member emphasized.

Gardeners usually turn to municipalities to ask their streets to paze, but they do not want to lose their autonomy, says the president of the Municipal Association. But notes that some of the gardens have problems: too narrow streets, lack of container yards, hedges are planted outside the house – too close to the streets.

According to the Center of Registers, about 39 thousand people have registered their place of residence in garden areas. persons.
