A city council member urged the authorities of Yekaterinburg to build standard schools instead of "palaces."
A city council member proposed that the administration of Yekaterinburg abandon the construction of schools costing several billion rubles and switch to "more down-to-earth, standard projects," reports "Ъ-Ural."
"Instead of a palace for 3-4 billion rubles, we could build three facilities, thereby reducing the need for places," said Deputy Mikhail Vechenkzin ("United Russia") at a recent city council meeting.
He noted that each new school in Yekaterinburg is a "special project, not standard." However, considering the record pace of new housing construction, according to him, it is necessary to take care of school places in advance, reports "Ъ-Ural."
The deputies were also outraged that the majority of new schools are being built in the Academic District. At the same time, new residential areas are emerging on the site of former industrial zones, next to which there are neither schools nor kindergartens.
"Where will all these children go?" Deputy Alexander Kolesnikov ("United Russia") inquired.
