On April 27, the Irkutsk region will join the All-Russian subbotnik, which will be held in the constituent entities of the country on the initiative of the Russian Ministry of Construction. The event is held as part of the federal project “Formation of a Comfortable Urban Environment” of the national project “Housing and Urban Environment,” reports the press service of the government of the Irkutsk region.

Residents of the cities of Sayansk, Bratsk, Shelekhov, Usolye-Sibirskoye, Vikhorevka, Nizhneudinsk, Cheremkhovo, Ust-Kut, Taishet, the workers’ village of Markova, the village of Khomutovo and other settlements will come out to clean up the territories. In a number of municipalities due to weather conditions cleanup days have been postponed to a later date.

Igor Kobzev, Governor of the Irkutsk Region:
– Cleanup work is an opportunity to make a personal contribution to creating comfortable conditions for living and recreation in your locality, tidying up public areas and courtyards, and giving comfort to the place in which you live. The All-Russian voting for improvement projects, which is currently taking place on the website za.gorodsreda.ru, also contributes to the solution of these same problems. By taking part in the vote, every resident who has reached the age of 14 can choose which space in their locality should be landscaped. As part of the cleanup, volunteers will work in the territories to tell about the objects submitted for voting and help those who have difficulties using the Internet to vote.

On April 1, 2024, the head of the region signed a decree on holding a month of sanitary cleaning and improvement of the territories of populated areas of the Irkutsk region. According to the document, activities for cleaning areas, repairing public amenities, bringing building facades, children’s playgrounds and sports grounds, and small architectural forms into proper shape must be carried out in the region from April 1 to May 30.

Cleanup work has already taken place in Irkutsk and Tulun, Angarsk city district. Representatives of administrations, labor collectives and simply concerned residents cleaned the shorelines of rivers, squares, parks, courtyards, playgrounds, forests and green areas in neighborhoods, areas near kindergartens, schools, higher educational institutions and secondary vocational education organizations.
