Dmitry Sivokhin: "The involvement of deputies in the topic of urban management benefits the city."

      On May 27, 2026, at 14:13, Politics. On May 27, 2026, the chairman of the Nizhny Novgorod City Duma, Yevgeny Chintsov, presented a report to the deputies on the work of the first convocation of the representative body for the year 2025. According to the deputy chairman of the Duma, Dmitry Sivokhin, the deputies' immersion in the sphere of municipal economy benefits the city and its residents: "For me and our convocation, last year was incomplete - we were elected in September, but it was eventful. In just over three months of work, we approved the Charter of 'Big Nizhny,' discussed and adopted the budget for 2026, and evaluated the report of the city head, Yuri Shalabaev, on the results of the implementation of national projects. For me, as a professional in the utilities sector, it is very important, and I think it is for the Nizhny Novgorod residents too, that my fellow deputies are deeply immersed in the topics of housing and communal services, landscaping, construction, and road maintenance. The Duma's immersion in the topic of municipal economy benefits the city and its residents. This is evident from the constant adjustments to the city budget that we approve, which is on the agenda today. Here, with the unconditional, I emphasize, unconditional fulfillment of social obligations to the population, we ensure a balance of interests and provide for the development of the city. This includes regular work on updating programs for the comprehensive development of social infrastructure and transport infrastructure. The new entries in them represent schools, kindergartens, kilometers of street and road networks, and communications. The city is alive, developing, and building: new large-scale facilities and municipal houses, engineering networks, and roads. All of this is a very important part of the work of the first convocation of the Duma, and I would like to note that the work is always constructive, and there is always mutual understanding with the relevant departments of the city administration. We have nothing to divide - everyone is interested in making Nizhny Novgorod better and ensuring that people live happily and comfortably in it. I am confident that together with the city administration, with the personal involvement of the mayor and under the control of the deputy corps, everything will work out."
