Defenders of the beach in the north of Vasilevsky Island in the Northern capital won a lawsuit against the developer LSR, which plans to create and build up alluvium. Igor Pirogov, a member of the initiative group, told a Rosbalt correspondent about this.

The St. Petersburg Society of Naturalists managed to oblige the company to submit documents for public environmental review. The decision was taken by the regional arbitration court. Thus, independent experts will be able to prepare their own conclusions about the legality of development.

“This is good news, proving that all this time we have rightly demanded documents from LSR for a public environmental review, which will begin as soon as the company provides the documents. The court gave them ten days to do so. And the quality of LSR’s documents and the level of expertise of our experts will determine how events will develop in the second court, where we demand to cancel the state environmental review, which allows the developer to obtain a building permit in the near future and start reclamation, ”explained Pirogov.

The plaintiff will also be compensated for the cost of state duty. If the company does not execute the court act on time, there is a procedure for collecting a penalty for each day of delay.

Earlier, an initiative group of residents picketed against the alluvium.

Recall that in the north-west of Vasilyevsky Island they plan to create and build up alluvium for more than 1 million square meters. meters of residential property. Smolny has repeatedly stated that it is “problematic” to abandon the project.
