Parliamentarian from Prosperous Armenia Party, candidate for Yerevan Mayor Vartan Oskanian is for proportional development of Yerevan. Oskanian writes on his Facebook page that there are over two Yerevans: small center, big center, other administrative districts and their outskirts.
All them differ from each other, especially there is big difference between the small center and the outskirts of Yerevan. Equal and overall development of Yerevan is a priority at present. Yerevan must be developed on the principle from Outskirts to the Center and not from the Center to Outskirts. I think it is necessary to seriously study creation of centers, "Abovyan and Tumanyan streets," for administrative districts of Yerevan. This approach will change the people's expectations, increase possibilities, unload the Center and create new values in other districts in the city, Oskanian writes.
The parliamentarian considers it inadmissible that domestic problems of the residents of the city outskirts have not been settled yet. This is a result of the years-long indifference and dishonesty of the city authorities.
"People do not want much. They just demand water, electric power, normal roads and uninterrupted transport communications, goods schools and kindergartens," the parliamentarian writes.
