Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia Alexander Bastrykin instructed to conduct an audit regarding the sale of a land plot in the Vasileostrovsky district of St. Petersburg. The townspeople want a square to appear in this place.
“Petersburg residents do not agree with the ongoing auction for the sale of a land plot owned by a state university that has abandoned plans to use it, and therefore, according to residents, it should be returned to the property of the city,” the information center of the Investigative Committee of Russia reports.
We are talking about a site on Korablestroiteley Street with an area of 6.9 hectares, put up for auction for 1 billion rubles. It was planned to open a park on the square from Michmanskaya Street to the embankment of the Smolenka River.
Vasileostrovtsy turned to the city administration to improve this place and organize a park zone here – a densely populated area is in dire need of it. However, now on the site for the sale of land and real estate “DOM.RF” a lot worth more than a billion rubles was found with this particular piece of land. Residents appealed to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation with a demand to stop the auction.
