Do not let us build in flood plains

June 16th, 2010

I suppose that the government and MPs to feel relieved from the obligation to care for the safety of flood control, because theoretically it is a responsibility of local governments. After all, the municipality shall adopt development plans that dictate where and what not to build. Unfortunately, practice shows that this does not hold water. Many municipalities either do not have such a plan, or building permits in the floodplain. I’ll say straight: in this case the municipal authorities expose its people to the loss of property or huge losses! I want one of the victims asked the court for damages on the grounds that the municipality was aware of the danger, and yet it allowed for the construction of the house. Beneficial to the injured party may effect the local governments podziałałby as a bucket of cold water?

Well, partly to blame for such a condemnable carelessness may be just that people often push themselves to the risk areas, for example, land is cheap. Municipal authorities and submit to this pressure, especially since probably more than one Councillor, or an influential local businessman is in his interest. In addition, levees give a false sense of security.

So I hope that the announcement is not an element Komorowski election campaign (when he becomes president, forget about his proposal). Roughly the idea is that the right of farmers have committed the regional water boards to municipalities to develop a flood risk study. Like the zoning plan would be the status of local law. This means that the municipalities would have to respect the restrictions contained in them for development. Local government should probably be on hand, it would not have to explain to their voters, why on earth they do not build anything. On the other hand, had decreased the attractiveness of land, and consequently their value, would entail the need to compensate the owners. However, we must ask whether the losses caused by flood is not that higher. And these losses will grow as we will arrive in homes or workplaces. Worse, it happens that in flood plains formed dumps and even petrol stations.

I realize that the idea is controversial. But I also know that the reason people can not be relied upon. Peter Nieznański of WWF Poland says that in 2001 when he sailed by boat to areas flooded with water from the Vistula River, the people with whom talks, promised himself that the amount here. But when these people visited Nieznański years later, homes have been rebuilt. And the caller said they expect that the flooding will happen for the next 100 years. And in this way created a vicious circle. I agree with Nieznańskim that they can stop the government and parliament. How? Enacting a law which in appropriate cases make the financial aid offered to flood victims from that move in a safe place.

For Wołgogoradu already flew a special committee of the Russian government to explain why the wave of the bridge – has informed agency RIA Novosti. On Thursday evening by a ferro-concrete structure began to spread waves of amplitude 1 m, tossing cars, located on the bridge. Cleaning service quickly stopped traffic over the bridge, and on Friday the authorities of Volgograd announced that the bridge will remain closed until it is satisfied that its operation is safe.

- Last month, housing prices in China rose at a record pace 12.8 percent. per year – reminds Catherine Siwek from Home Broker. – Without doubt, investors around the world have in mind the consequences of the collapse of U.S. real estate market. Therefore, the sensitivity to respond to reports of cooling of the market in China. Share prices of real estate companies in the Middle Kingdom have decreased this year, already 30 percent. – Siwek points.

According cited by the Financial Times Daokui Li from the Chinese central bank’s real estate problems are greater than in the United States and Great Britain before the outbreak of the recent crisis. There, the market collapsed because banks too easy to give mortgages to people without giving them any credit. When the borrower ceased to pay debts in bulk, head over heels for the property value has decreased, which was based a lot of investment securities.

Does China threaten a similar scenario? Analysts point out that the Chinese economy is too dependent on already overheated property market. Therefore, many of them stipulates that within 12 months of the Chinese economy could break down.

For a customer purchases a hole in the ground is a big risk. And not only when money entrust an unknown company. No, even experienced, the company did not give 100 percent. guarantee that the investment will come happily to an end. These are especially risky investments that are funded solely by the developers and their customers. Because if the sale of housing stock and the company has no money for their completion, then threatens to fizzle. Customers are often bankrupt with no money, housing, and had entered into a loan on the neck.

So far only a few companies decided to sell the flats at the end of their construction, or when it was already well advanced. Catherine Siwek the Home Broker, lists accommodation in Wroclaw, Poznan company businessman Thomas Nowicki (complex Green Point in Poznan) and Poppy’s house, Samko, Grupo Lar, Mostostal Bis and Mill-Yon. We found out that a similar strategy now also adopted JW Construction Holding.

- We are prepared to trade apartments – said in an interview with “Gazeta” the head of the supervisory board and main shareholder of a listed company’s developer Joseph Wojciechowski. – I will not mind that a project does not begin to sell at the stage of the shell closed, but we will never sell a hole in the ground – assured.

His explanation that the company wants to avoid any misunderstandings with customers as to whether the accommodation meets their expectations. – The market has changed, every customer wants to see exactly what you are buying – we said Wojciechowski.

The President’s Advisory Reas Kazimierz Kirejczyk confirms that the matching housing to individual buyers is an added problem for developers. Kirejczyk doubts, however, that J.W. Construction will find many followers. Nearly half of companies use credit as a condition of obtaining a pre-sales demonstration of a specified (usually 1925 to 1930 percent. Dwellings) and the regular selling of premises for a further period of construction.

Kirejczyk notes that some customers want to ensure that you can buy a home at an early stage of implementation.

What com. Three Crosses want? What to do with the movement of cars? How much space for pedestrians to give? Do you grow a garden café – and where? We’ll talk about this during the debate in the “Gazette”, which will be held tomorrow in the chair. 19 Street. Czerska 8 / 10.

Over a week ago the town hall held a contest for the concept of remodeling com. Three Crosses. The verdict did not raise the enthusiasm of residents who expected a more radical change – the construction of the underground parking lot and cluster all on one side of the road, such as here where the car park before the Ministry of Economy. Why is better variant of the square-roundabout? To say Marek Mikos, director of the office of architecture and urban planning, and prof. Wojciech Suchorzewski, communications expert and a member of the jury.

Janusz will present its draft Klikowicz, first prize winner, who believes that this square is the most important church. Alexander. He dreams monumental assumption as in Rome or Paris. In his work on a large granite island is the sacred king, whose boundaries designate row of trees trimmed. In his opinion, this should be chestnuts, City Hall does not preclude the plane trees, which are great take place in Warsaw.

Readers ‘Newspapers’ calls and ask: – What a beautiful, great and old magnolia, which grows at a bus stop in the roundabout was de Gaulle? We are afraid that it will disappear. On the visualization can not see it.

Architect Klikowicz calm – certainly will not go under the ax. But now I can not say what happened to her condition. I have an idea, which reveal only during the debate.

The award-winning work will tell the students, architects, and Steve Bennett, Dr. Christopher Marek Sawicki Dawos the studio. They will convince you that their idea of an extensive square club-cafe in the area of stomata, Studs, and spools of water attractions, greenery and fountains before the St. Nicholas Church. Alexander is more attractive to residents. The project Dawosu can see a lot of trees in different parts of the square: the Ministry of Economy, along the office of ING, the Institute of Deaf and the Sheraton. – Here the trees are only used to supplement the frontage of the square, at which the force is to take place. A magnolia? Unless it can be saved or will need to plant a different one. This is the sign of the place. But we can not subordinate the whole concept of the magnolia square one – says Dr. Steve Bennett.

In July 2009, Deputy Interior Minister Tomas Siemoniak official letter stated that condition about 20 percent of flood embankments can not guarantee the safe execution of flood discharges water.

The document, which the Government participated Safety Center, was forwarded to the Parliamentary Committee on Environmental Protection. That in October 2009 Prime Minister Donald Tusk called for urgent action to improve the effectiveness of flood protection. However, the then Environment Minister Maciej Nowicki explained that the budget lacks money and investments have to be postponed – the newspaper writes.
