After 2.8 billion outsourcing of sanitation, poor snow removal was complained about, and Benxi District 1 in Liaoning Province issued a document.
Recently, a notice issued by Mingshan District, Benxi City, Liaoning Province has caused controversy. The notice requires units and businesses along the street to clear the snow in front of their doors within 24 hours, otherwise penalties will be imposed. Some members of the public believe that the relevant departments have not outsourced their services in the snow removal work, and the responsibility should not be passed on to the merchants.
In response to this situation, a person in charge of the Propaganda Department of the Mingshan District Party Committee said that there was no problem with the basis of the notice, and it may be that the wording was blunt, which caused dissatisfaction among some citizens. At the same time, the reporter noted that in August 2023, the sanitation operation in the main urban area of Benxi City was outsourced to "supply and marketing environmental technology" for 24 years and 2.8 billion yuan, including snow removal services.
The relevant person in charge of the relevant departments of Benxi City said that this year is the first year of outsourcing sanitation services, and it will take time to straighten out the cooperative relationship and run in. At the same time, the relevant departments will also strengthen the supervision of outsourcing services to ensure service quality and efficiency.
The incident also sparked a discussion among citizens about the outsourcing of urban management and services. Some citizens believe that the supervision and responsibility of urban management should be strengthened to ensure that the basic rights and interests of citizens are protectedAt the same time, service outsourcing should also be open and transparent to ensure service quality and efficiency.
Normally, merchants are obligated to remove snow from their doors. This is because the merchant is responsible for the snow removal work in the area of responsibility in front of the door for many years, which is part of the responsibility of the "three guarantees in front of the door".
According to the relevant regulations, merchants who fail to comply with the regulations may be fined. However, in practice, the relevant departments will deal with it according to the specific situation, and generally will not directly impose penalties.
Merchants need to pay attention to safety when clearing snow in front of their doors, and choose appropriate tools and methods according to weather conditions and relevant regulations to avoid adverse effects on the surrounding environment and people.
