What's wrong with Andrei Shokhin's left hand? Andrei Shokhin supported the townspeople. “The most important thing is understanding”

Back in 1984, Andrei Shokhin, a graduate of the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of the Vladimir Pedagogical Institute, did not think that he would one day become the head of the capital’s administration Vladimir region, - admitted city manager Andrei Shokhin himself. The topic of his studies at the university was brought up when, after an hour of conversation, a group of girls asked to leave. Shokhin, as a teacher by training, allowed them to leave the classroom.

The official biography of the head of the city administration of Vladimir, Andrei Shokhin, can be found on the city hall website.

“EITHER GO WITH A TEAM OR LIVE YOUR OWN LIFE”

The head of the city youth affairs department, Alexander Malik, who moderated the discussion, asked Shokhin how, being a teacher by training, he got into power?

The city manager explained that when he graduated from physics and mathematics, there was no university in Vladimir in its current form - then applicants had a choice between pedagogical and polytechnic institutes (the two universities were merged in 2009). Having received his diploma, Andrei Shokhin “have worked conscientiously for a certain number of years at school”. He didn’t specify which one, but the city hall’s website states that Shokhin taught physics at working youth school No. 10, and then taught mathematics to children at boarding school No. 4:

“I worked as a physics teacher, worked as a mathematics teacher, as a class teacher, you name it, and as the head of a photography club. I acquired a lot of new [skills]. Well, how does it usually happen with us? He’s young and eager, which means he’s immediately put into various classes and so on.”

In the late eighties and early nineties of the last century, Andrei Shokhin stopped his teaching career, “went into the youth movement”, where “somehow smoothly transitioned into business”. The city manager, again, did not specify in what area he was engaged in entrepreneurial activity (the city administration website only states that in 1989-2005 he “held senior positions in commercial structures”).

Later - apparently at the turn of 2001-2002 - one of his friends suggested Shokhin try himself as a city council deputy. He agreed and won the election. His activity as a people's representative "noticed"(Shokhin kept silent about who exactly), and offered to work in the executive body of local government - the administration of the city of Vladimir under the leadership of Alexander Rybakov. Shokhin refused, but was convinced, after which he became vice-mayor in charge of municipal property. Andrei Shokhin explained that he transferred the entire business to his brother:

“For example, I cannot do something badly and irresponsibly; accordingly, when I became a deputy, I tried to devote the maximum amount of time to parliamentary work. Well, as usual, they remarked: “Listen, let’s try in the executive branch.” I say: “No, I don’t want to.” And I refused once, then they invited me a second time, and they said: “Listen, well, you either agree and go there as a team, or we don’t call you anymore, and you live your life there.” Well, I thought, the business seems to be going well, let’s leave it to my brother and go. Working in a municipality means that you do not have the right to engage in business, so that there is no affiliation, because this is quite corrupt. And the companies that were under my control, where I was the director, handed it all over to my brother and went to work in the administration, became the deputy head of the administration [-head of municipal property management], then Alexander Petrovich Rybakov was the head. He worked for a certain number of years, Alexander Petrovich had already retired, and now [in April 2011, city council deputies] were elected head of the administration [of the city of Vladimir on a competitive basis].”

Shokhin explained to the young people that he was used to working well, and demanded the same from his subordinates. The city manager emphasized that, first of all, the business qualities of his employees are important to him; he does not pay attention to their political views:

“I can say that I really like improving the city of Vladimir. Here I live and look, my eye has already become like this, its own kind of vision. I’m driving, I see - yeah, the snow hasn’t been cleared; yeah, the light doesn't work. I don’t see, maybe, anything else. When I drive down the street, I see things like this. And, in fact, any businessman who runs his own business at an enterprise sees the same thing in himself. The city is the same big mechanism. Here you just need to have the right orientation, select the right team, so that there are professionals in each industry. And I try somehow. And the first thing I did was, of course, to take the youth with me. I have a rather interesting team - there is Alina [Vedehina], including Lena [Malik], who now work as heads of departments [of culture and tourism and education], someone is already working as a deputy head of the administration, two people. And we've been going this way ever since. In housing and communal services, however, [bosses] change frequently, but I hope that [this will stop soon]. Housing and communal services is a different structure; they already need [managers] with experience [to be installed]. Although we had young people come, also from deputies, guys - [Ilya] Potapov came. This is to the point that it seems [the principle is important to me] “oppositionists are not oppositionists.” Ilya Potapov, a representative of the LDPR party, says: “Andrei Stanislavovich, I want to work in the administration. But I'm from a different party. You are from United Russia, and I am from the Liberal Democratic Party.” I tell him: “Listen, there are no different parts in my work - either you work or you don’t work.” He works, the other guys work, there are no problems at all.”

Andrei Shokhin was asked why he chose the teaching profession, and does the experience gained over the years of teaching help him in his work?

The city manager joked that his choice was determined by the location of the main building of the Vladimir Pedagogical University next to his house. But seriously, he went to physics and mathematics because he « I was very good at exact sciences". He also said that any knowledge and any experience is useful, no matter what one does:

“I don’t know how it is now, but before there was this joke: when you come from school to college, they say: “Forget everything you were taught at school, now we will give you knowledge.” After studying at the institute for five years, you come to work and your boss tells you: “Forget everything you were taught at the institute, now I will tell you how to really work.” This is an anecdote, but in fact, any knowledge that is given always bears fruit.”

“THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS UNDERSTANDING”

One young man asked Andrei Shokhin for advice: how to maintain a family home with such a crazy workload? The city manager joked that he expected a similar question from the girls, and replied that the main thing is to find understanding with his wife, and everything will be fine:

“It’s a force of habit, I guess. My wife is already used to the fact that I am constantly at work. The children are already quite old - one is already independent, I already have a granddaughter. My daughter studies in Moscow. In fact, I try as much as possible to spend at least the weekend, although it doesn’t always work out, with my family. My wife is always understanding.”

FOOTBALL AND “MONGOL SHUDAN”

The head of the Vladimir city administration admitted that he does not know what a hobby is. As a child, he collected postage stamps, and now in his spare time (if he suddenly has any) he plays football:

“My mother still has my album [with stamps], she doesn’t give it to anyone. Especially the sports ones, “Mongol Shuudan”, that’s all, I just loved the stamps. Now I don’t know if I have a day off, I really love playing football, I still play myself, and if I have a Sunday, we play with the same team for twenty to twenty-five years with the guys. Even though we’re old, we’re still running.”

Andrey Shokhin explained that "they are with the guys" They often play against the teams of the LDPR and the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. One of the girls asked him if she could play with him? The city manager replied that "no problem", and complained that ten years ago in Vladimir the "promising" women's team:

“We used to have a women’s team, actually. When I was a child, my dad brought me to “Torpedo” to train, and we had a very good women’s team. Moreover, she took first places, even at the beginning of the 2000s she played for the Russian championship, but then all the girls got married, and after that it broke up. And although there was such a promising team.”

SHOKHIN JUST LOVES VLADIMIR

Andrei Shokhin, as an ordinary resident of Vladimir, was asked which place in the city is his favorite. The city manager said that there are many such places, and he could not give preference to any one of them. He stated that he loves the city entirely, and this strengthens his desire for further improvement of the capital of the Vladimir region:

“Every year I have more and more of these places in the city. In fact, I don’t know, [I can’t] give preference to any place. When I come, each place has something connected with it: I come to “Torpedo” - I remember how I ran there to the stadium as a boy; I come to a new place, where Molodezhny Square is now, I remember how we landscaped it, and I remember what was there, most importantly, these are some kind of bowls; behind the City Palace of Culture [City Palace of Culture, former VTZ House of Culture on Gorky Street] you go into a new park, it’s beautifully done now, everything is good. I think everyone [has] places like this. I can just honestly say that I just love the city, like many of you, probably you all love your city. If you love your city, you will live comfortably and well in it, and you always strive to improve it further.”

With these words, when it was about 20:00, the head of the youth affairs department, Alexander Malik, recalled that the meeting had already lasted for two hours; he said that “It’s good when [Andrei Shokhin] has an understanding wife”. To this, the city manager jokingly, to the laughter of the audience, suggested that the moderator’s wife - head of the city education department Elena Malik - “probably doesn’t understand”, since he can’t wait to go home.

Andrey Shokhin at the International Forum

Today the International Forum on Energy Efficiency and Energy Development is taking place in Moscow. More than eight thousand representatives of federal and regional authorities take part in the forum. Representatives from Europe, Asia, North and Latin America are invited.

Shokhin effective

Vladimir city manager Andrey Shokhin entered the TOP 20 most effective mayors of regional capitals. Shokhin was given credit for the completion of the construction of the Lybidskaya highway and the unfinished construction of a school in the 8-YUZ microdistrict

The real owner of the city of Vladimir, Andrei Shokhin, took 20th place in the list of the most effective mayors of the regional capitals of Russia based on the results of the period August-September 2017.

Andrey Shokhin and Olga Deeva will congratulate preschool workers on their professional holiday

Teachers and specialists from municipalities have been invited to attend today. preschool institutions, veterans and honored workers of preschool education - reports the press service of the mayor's office.

More than 20 teachers will be awarded diplomas from the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation for significant services in the field of education, raising children and youth, and many years of conscientious work.

Just a month ago, responding to numerous requests from citizens regarding problems with public transport in regional center, the head of the Vladimir administration, Andrei Shokhin, ordered the transport and communications department to prepare proposals to improve the situation. Today the department reported on the work done.

According to the monitoring results, the main complaints among Vladimir residents are violations of traffic intervals. Indeed, recently, on a number of routes, citizens have been waiting longer than usual for buses. Shokhin believes that in this case the residents’ claims are justified.

In addition, the head of the administration is completely dissatisfied with the explanations of the carriers, who refer to “objective difficulties.”

At a working meeting that Shokhin held together with transport industry specialists, the head of the administration said that he could still agree with the “Beijing” factor, because the repair of the M-7 highway within Vladimir really complicates traffic flow - passenger buses are knocked out due to road work from the schedule. But there are other problems that require prompt solutions.

For example, routes that duplicate each other, as well as the presence of unreasonably long routes where the number of rolling stock is clearly underestimated public transport.

Take, for example, route No. 18C. Its length is 30 km, and it is served by only 6 buses. With the official traffic interval being 25 minutes, any traffic jam leads to transport delays and hassle for passengers.

Another important factor is directly related to the decision of the owners of BigAvtoTrans to leave the city public transportation market. Nobody argues, any owner has the right to make any legal decision to change the main profile of his company. But the townspeople should not suffer either - no one relieved BigAvtoTrans of responsibility for correct operation on those routes that this company still serves.

And here, it must be admitted, the quality of the carrier’s work, unfortunately, has decreased: there are fewer buses on the lines, and the service intervals are longer.

Having studied the proposals of the city department of transport and communications, the head of the administration noted that any changes to the city route network needs to be carried out professionally and carefully, in close cooperation with transport companies - this is the only way the mayor’s office will preserve the effective public transportation system created in Vladimir. All changes that will be adopted on this topic at the mayor’s office will be made in the interests of passengers and for the development of the industry, according to the principle “measure twice, cut once.”

Currently, out of the entire list of proposals from the Department of Transport and Communications, Andrei Shokhin has agreed on changes to only four bus routes.

Bus route No. 21C The route is being changed to improve transport accessibility of residential neighborhoods, industrial, office and retail facilities in the area of Traktornaya, Polina Osipenko, Pochaevskaya, Rokadnaya streets, where previously there was no route public transport.

The bus interval during morning and evening rush hours will be 12-14 minutes, at other times - up to 25 minutes.

We have already written about the next route. Details here. But let's repeat it again:

From October 13, 2018, buses No. 21C will operate on the following route:

Energetik - Market - Sleeve - Turn to Energetik - Yuryevets Gardens - Military Memorial - st. Noyabrskaya - Yuryevets - Moskovskoe highway - Lenin Ave. - st. Pugacheva - Ryabinka - st. Tchaikovsky - Cheryomushki - st. Krasnoarmeyskaya - Pedagogical Institute - Marinka - st. Belokonskoy - "Megatorg" - PC "Pokom" - st. Pochaevskaya - Prince Vladimir Cemetery - Vladimir Chemical Plant - st. Dmitry Pogodin - Children's Hospital - House of Furniture - Entertainment center"Rus-Kino" - Dobroselsky Park - st. Radishcheva - st. Bezymenskogo - Supermarket - Shop "Opolye" - Turn on the street. Kuibysheva - st. Kuibysheva.

Bus route No. 18C The route, approximately 30 km long, will become shorter. This will be done in order to gradually reduce bus intervals. At the same time, specialists from the transport and communications department developed proposals taking into account the interests of those citizens who were concerned about the transport accessibility of familiar objects: production and office sites, educational, children's and sports institutions, markets, hospitals and clinics.

Thus, from October 15, 2018, bus routes

No. 18C will operate on the following route:

Microdistrict Lesnoy - Agrocomplex - Lemeshki-1 - Bogolyubovo-3 - Bogolyubovo-2 - Bogolyubovo-1 - Sungir - Razgulay Theater - Gardens on Dobroselskaya - City Hospital No. 5 - Suzdal Ave. - Children's Hospital - st. Dmitry Pogodin - Vladimir Chemical Plant - Prince Vladimir Cemetery - Swimming pool - Youth House of Culture - st. Polina Osipenko - Market "Opolye" - st. Mira - Museum of Nature - Oktyabrsky Prospekt - Spring - Palace of Youth Creativity - Turn to DTY - Student Town - Marinka - Pedagogical Institute - st. Krasnoarmeyskaya - School No. 2 - st. Balakireva.

Bus route No. 31 Also, as of October 15, 2018, this route is closed. This is due to the fact that there is very little passenger flow in this direction. However, taking into account the interests of passengers who use the route of the 31st bus, the route will be served by changing routes No. 18C and No. 32.

Bus route No. 32 For residents of the Krasnoye Selo area, also from 10/15/2018, bus No. 32 will travel along the following route:

st. Levino Pole - st. Speaker Levitan - School No. 43 - st. Sushchevskaya - Regional Palace of Culture and Art - Ruslan and Lyudmila - pl. Pobeda - Ryabinka - st. Tchaikovsky - Cheryomushki - st. Krasnoarmeyskaya - Pedagogical Institute - Marinka - st. Belokonskoy - st. Gastello - Vladimirsky State University- pl. Lenin - Vspolye - Central Park- st. Polina Osipenko - Youth Culture House - Swimming pool - Prince Vladimir Cemetery - Vladimir Chemical Plant - st. Dmitry Pogodin - Krasnoselskie baths - Zhukovsky street - 40 Let Oktyabrya street - st. Radishcheva - st. Bezymenskogo - Supermarket - Shop "Opolye" - Turn on the street. Kuibysheva - st. Kuibyshev - Greenhouse Plant - Magneton Plant - Shopping complex"Tandem".

It is worth noting that the bus interval on route No. 32 will not change - during peak hours it will be 15 minutes. (on route No. 31, the traffic interval is 20 minutes).

Specialists from the Department of Transport and Communications believe that updating routes No. 18C and No. 32 will solve several problems at once: this will compensate for the closure of little-used route No. 31 and at the same time improve passenger service for residents who travel from the areas of the Palace of Youth Creativity and st. Balakirev, and will also allow for high-quality implementation of the traffic schedule, because the dependence on traffic congestion during peak hours, which often occurs on the street, will be reduced. Verkhnyaya Dubrova and Lenin Avenue.

In addition, it must be added that, on the direct instructions of Andrei Shokhin, the transport and communications department also took into account the interests of social categories of passengers who previously traveled to the microdistrict. 8-SW by bus No. 18C. Transport accessibility microdistrict for Vladimir residents who have preferential travel tickets, is completely preserved - they, as before, will be able to use routes No. 9C and No. 24C.

No. 9C in microdistrict 8-YUZ will be the stop “Yugo-Zapadnaya”, final stop bus No. 24C - stop “3rd Koltsevaya”. Otherwise, both routes remain unchanged.

The head of the city administration, Andrei Shokhin, has followed approximately the same path as many of today's managers. The current Vladimir city manager is a personality no less interesting than his former tandem colleague, ex-city head Sergei Sakharov.

In 1984, Shokhin was a newly appointed physics and mathematics teacher. He devoted five years to pedagogy, giving A's and D's to both the students of the Working Youth School and the students of boarding school No. 4. In 1989, Shokhin went into commerce, which he successfully pursued until 2005. At the same time, 11 years ago, he began to take his first steps in urban politics - in 2002, Andrei Stanislavovich was elected as a deputy of the City Council, and he immediately headed the committee on economic and industrial policy, and subsequently became deputy chairman of the Council of People's Deputies.

In 2005, Andrei Shokhin took the post of deputy head of Vladimir/head of municipal property management. It was during this period of Shokhin’s biography that a number of interesting land transactions occurred in the regional center. There is no need to list them all, it is enough just to mention that the scandalous story with Spassky Hill goes back to 2006 - which means that the transfer of land on Spassky Hill to private hands occurred with the direct participation of Andrei Stanislavovich.

Shokhin liked being a municipal manager so much that when he was re-elected to the city council, he gave up his deputy mandate and gave way to his namesake, businessman Andrei Sheshenin, as a parliamentarian. And although this article is not at all about Sheshenin, we cannot help but add that Sheshenin, who took the chair intended for Shokhin, subsequently became the hero of what was probably the biggest corruption scandal of the last decade in Vladimir, but at the same time got off surprisingly lightly, remaining free.

Shokhin was assessed as the most likely candidate for the post of city manager. And indeed, during the voting at the end of April 2011, 27 deputies of the City Council voted for the approval of Shokhin as head of the city administration, and only three voted against. Having won a convincing victory, Andrei Stanislavovich began optimizing the staff of the Orange House. He reduced the number of his deputies from six to four (although a fifth one appeared in 2016), and the staff of ordinary employees of the mayor’s office also decreased.

It is worth noting that Andrei Stanislavovich clearly gravitated and gravitates toward media exposure and popularity more than his colleague Sakharov. Let us at least recall the Channel Six project “Directly with Andrei Shokhin”, in each episode of which the city manager, like “Frost the Voivode”, patrolled his possessions, and early in the morning, under the gunpoint of the “six” television camera, blamed younger officials for the icy conditions. gouges on the asphalt, icicles, etc. True, there is still a feeling that the biggest contribution to the fight against this scourge was made by spring, and not by Andrei Stanislavovich.

Having become a city manager, Andrei Shokhin immediately set a course for “maximum openness” and, following fashion, opened

A month ago, responding to numerous requests from citizens regarding problems with public transport in the regional center, the head of the Vladimir administration, Andrei Shokhin, ordered the transport and communications department to prepare proposals to improve the situation. Today the department reported on the work done.

In addition, the head of the administration is completely dissatisfied with the explanations of the carriers, who refer to “objective difficulties.”

Currently, out of the entire list of proposals from the Department of Transport and Communications, Andrei Shokhin has agreed on changes to only four bus routes.

Bus route No. 21C

The route is being changed to improve transport accessibility of residential neighborhoods, industrial, office and retail facilities in the area of Traktornaya, Polina Osipenko, Pochaevskaya, Rokadnaya streets, where route public transport previously did not operate.

The bus interval during morning and evening rush hours will be 12-14 minutes, at other times - up to 25 minutes.

Bus route No. 18C

The route, approximately 30 km long, will become shorter. This will be done in order to gradually reduce bus intervals. At the same time, specialists from the transport and communications department developed proposals taking into account the interests of those citizens who were concerned about the transport accessibility of familiar objects: production and office sites, educational, children's and sports institutions, markets, hospitals and clinics.

Bus route No. 31

Also from 10/15/2018 this route closes. This is due to the fact that there is very little passenger flow in this direction. However, taking into account the interests of passengers who use the route of the 31st bus, the route will be served by changing routes No. 18C and No. 32.

Bus route No. 32

For residents of the Krasnoye Selo area, also from October 15, 2018, buses No. 32 will travel along the following route:

In addition, it must be added that, on the direct instructions of Andrei Shokhin, the transport and communications department also took into account the interests of social categories of passengers who previously traveled to the microdistrict. 8-SW by bus No. 18C. Transport accessibility of the microdistrict for Vladimir residents who have discounted travel tickets is completely preserved - they, as before, will be able to use routes No. 9C and No. 24C.

No. 9C in microdistrict 8-YUZ will be the stop "Yugo-Zapadnaya", the final stop of bus No. 24C will be the stop "3rd Koltsevaya". Otherwise, both routes remain unchanged.
