Petro Onyshchenko, 64

Place: City Council

Thoughts

The year begins not with slogans, but with a package that can be put on the table without blushing at the numbers. Lytvyn provides exactly that format: cash, debt, deadlines, guarantees. This suits me — the commission likes not promises, but paper with risks. At the same time, I see that the city is entering 2027 with a sensitive balance: people are watching the embankment, business is watching the rules, and I have to keep the procedure in my hands. Soroka proposes a technical lease formula — this is also useful, if we don't let the topic get lost in chatter.

Options

1. Confirm the meeting with Lytvyn and demand the full package for discussion.
2. First, gather Oksana and the financiers, and only then talk to Lytvyn.
3. Postpone Lytvyn and focus on the business formula from Soroka.

Choice. I choose the first option: with Lytvyn, there is already ready material, and I need the numbers and commitments to maintain control over the voting. I am not pushing Soroka away, but I will take up his topic after I see if it fits the framework.

Diary. I started 2027 from the right point: Lytvyn brings a package not in words, but with numbers and deadlines. This gives me grounds to keep the topic in the commission, not in public noise. I opened the door for Soroka, but only within the procedural framework. The main thing to remember is: first documents, then position, and then votes.

Thoughts

The year is coming to an end, and the main thing now is not noise, but the framework for 2027. One thing worries me: if I don't reconcile the numbers before everyone else, everyone will start pulling the blanket towards themselves – projects, stands, hubs, parks, treatment plants. I need accurate balances, real reserves, and a list of what can be brought to the session without unnecessary drama. Oksana needs to be brought back into the fold, and we need to maintain a common line with the mayor until the budget is formed.

Options

1. Hold a closed budget reconciliation with Oksana Myroshnychenko
2. Ask the mayor to submit the 2027 priorities to the commission
3. Postpone action and wait for the first figures from the department

Choice. I choose the closed reconciliation with Oksana: without it, I don't see the real picture of reserves and priorities. First the numbers, then the conversation with the mayor and the rest.

Diary. Towards the end of the year, I am shifting the focus back to the numbers. I have arranged a closed reconciliation with Oksana, and reminded the mayor about the priority framework. The goal is simple: to enter 2027 without chaos and keep the commission at the center of decision-making.

Thoughts

Three topics are intertwined: Lytvyn, Dakhnivka, the embankment. I don't need noise - I need numbers, short packages, and the right to keep it in the budget committee. If I consolidate the financial framework with the technical package now, I will have control over the pace and content; if I start commenting publicly, I will get unnecessary politics instead of a solution.

Options

1. Consolidate everything into a closed budget framework with Oksana.
2. Publicly pressure Lytvyn and demand guarantees.
3. Wait for the next meeting without making any moves.

Choice. I choose a closed review with Oksana: this way I will maintain control over the numbers and prevent the topic from dissolving into public noise. I will set the framework for Lytvyn and Honcharenko separately, without unnecessary promises.

Diary. I have consolidated the three directions into one framework and prevented them from going into public noise. I have set a short format for Lytvyn, a technical one for Honcharenko, and I am asking Oksana to gather the budget picture and sit down with me face-to-face. The main thing is to keep the commission at the center of the solution.

Place: Covered market

Thoughts

The Central Market is a sensitive topic, but these are the kinds of things that need to be handled without noise and without the appearance of an circumventing maneuver. If Fedir submits the package correctly, it can be passed through the relevant logic without compromising himself or me. My task is to leave the final control over financial consequences to the budget committee, but not to take on what, by its nature, belongs to land and architecture. It is better to give him a clear formulation immediately than to deal with the political fallout later.

Options

1. Give Fedir a clear formulation through the land and architectural committees.
2. Have a short, closed conversation with him and polish the package together.
3. Postpone the response and wait for him to bring the project himself.

Choice. I choose the first option: it is the least conflict-prone path and at the same time does not give me control over the final framework. This way, the package will look procedurally clean, not like someone's backroom games.

Diary. I advised Boiko on a clean procedural framework for the Central Market. It is important not to bring everything to the budget committee immediately: first boundaries, status, and purpose, and only then money, if any. This way, I will maintain order and prevent the issue from becoming a political scandal.

Place: Embankment

Thoughts

The mayor asks for a united position, Lytvyn pressures with the calendar, and Shevchuk himself offers his shoulder for legal filtering. After a pause with Myroshnychenko, I see the main thing: to bring everything into one closed framework, not to let the agenda be dictated by noise, and not to lose control over the wording. First, the budget and risks, then – any presentation. I am silent publicly for now.

Options

1. Assemble a closed framework: finance, lawyers, architecture, Lytvyn
2. Immediately support Lytvyn and submit the package to the committee
3. Take a pause and wait for the political moment

Choice. I choose the closed framework. This way, I keep the decision center in the budget committee and do not allow anyone to impose a raw package on me.

Diary. Did not rush with public action. Consolidated the issues of the embankment, treatment facilities, and Dakhnivka into a closed budget framework: first the numbers, then presentations and votes. I made the conditions clear to Lytvyn, involved Shevchuk in the risks, and want to bring Myroshnychenko back to work on the balance and reserve.

Thoughts

The most important thing is to combine Dakhnivka, Mytnytsia, and ecology into one framework, so that there are no separate trades for each piece at the session. Oksana needs to be pushed to a working reconciliation, and Boyko needs to be given a procedural bridge without unnecessary noise. I love these moments: when everyone is still talking about intentions, and I already have the numbers.

Options

1. Collect the budget framework for Dakhnivka, Mytnytsia, and ecology with Oksana
2. Bring Lytvyn with the bank and trade union to written conditions
3. Give Boyko a procedural scheme and keep the market within the rules

Choice. I choose the first option: without a consolidated framework, the session will fall apart, and with it, I will maintain the decision-making center in the commission. Lytvyn and Boyko will be brought in under a ready-made framework.

Diary. I have shifted the focus to consolidating the package for Dakhnivka, Mytnytsia, and ecology. I confirmed the single framework to the mayor, left the door open for Lytvyn, but only through documents, and gave Boyko a procedural guideline. The main thing is not to let individual topics drag out the session and keep the budget commission at the center of the decision.

Outcome. The faction leader demands an estimate and a calendar before considering the "Embankment Standards"

Thoughts

The embankment is becoming a point of tension, which means I need to hold not slogans, but a framework: data, estimate, legal purity, and votes. Yaroshenko wants a shield from Savchuk — this is understandable, but I will not let the commission drift. Lytvyn's plan looks serious, but I still want to see the file and reconcile it with Oksana's budget effect. My interest is simple: to support what can be passed, and not to let the opposition break the process on procedure.

Options

1. Support the mayor's package and push it through with numbers
2. Stall the decision until the full package and bargain on terms
3. Take a pause and open a channel with the opposition in case of a breakdown

Choice. I choose the first option: Yaroshenko needs my weight, and I need control over the text and schedule. If I fix the framework now, it will be easier to bargain and fend off attacks later.

Statement: «A unified data standard for the embankment is the right direction. But any decision must have an estimate, deadlines, legal purity, and clear execution control.»

Diary. I have started holding two nodes simultaneously: the embankment and the treatment facilities. I have made it clear to the mayor that I will support the package only with numbers, to Lytvyn — that without the file there will be no politics, and I am drawing Oksana into budget reconciliation. The main thing is not to give initiative to the noise.

Thoughts

The mayor is asking for a framework, and that's right: in this term, the budget must be kept within one corridor, without spreading into trifles. Treatment facilities, transport, and Dakhnivka can be combined into one table if opponents are not allowed to get stuck in emotions. Humeniuk is already knocking with electric buses - it's worth listening, but only through numbers, deadlines, and sources. My task is the same: keep the committee at the center and do not give the agenda to anyone who speaks louder than others.

Options

1. Support the mayor's framework and reduce everything to numbers.
2. First, consolidate the committee's composition, then move on to transport.
3. Maintain neutrality and do not take on new topics.

Choice. I choose the first option: it keeps me at the center of the process and does not allow anyone to bypass the committee. I will talk to Humeniuk separately, but only within a financially understandable scheme.

Diary. The mayor is asking for a framework for Tuesday, and this is my format: the agenda must remain with the budget committee. In parallel, I have taken on the topic of electric buses through Humeniuk, but only through numbers and deadlines. Today, the main thing is not noise, but a managed package of decisions.

Outcome. Onyshchenko demands a clear budget framework for the treatment facilities project.

Thoughts

The mayor is asking to quickly support the feasibility study for treatment facilities and also to secure votes from Polishchuk. Lytvyn is again coming with a big plan – that's good, but I'm not interested in large sums without tables. My task is the same: don't rush, keep the committee in the center, give the city momentum without chaos, and don't lose leverage. First, I'll get the financial framework from the department, then I'll negotiate with everyone else.

Options

1. Hold a meeting with Oksana and compile the figures for the feasibility study and the hub.
2. Immediately call Lytvyn and listen to his investment plan.
3. Through contacts, cautiously probe Polishchuk about votes.

Choice. I choose to meet with Oksana: without a concise financial table, neither the feasibility study nor the conversation with Polishchuk will give me a real position. Lytvyn will have to wait until I see the numbers and sources.

Statement: «I support the preparation of the feasibility study for the modernization of treatment facilities, but only with a clear budget framework, schedule, and funding sources. The city needs a working document, not slogans.»

Diary. Strengthened the framework for treatment facilities: numbers first, then votes. I am arranging a reconciliation with Oksana, and I have made it clear to Lytvyn that there will be no discussion without a concise plan. I have cautiously started checking on Polishchuk through channels.

Thoughts

The city currently does not like noise, but listens well to numbers. I have influence and reserves on hand, but without a fresh budget framework, it's just weight without direction. I want to leave the committee as the center of decision-making, without undermining the mayor and without closing the channel with the opposition. The smartest thing now is to finalize the internal picture of revenues, reserves, and project priorities, and only then bargain for priorities.

Options

1. Finalize the updated budget framework through the finance department
2. Align political priorities with the mayor in a closed conversation
3. Maintain silence and keep the backup channel through the opposition open

Choice. I choose the first option: without numbers, there will be no leverage or bargaining. First, we need a clean framework, and only then can we fit politics to it.

Diary. I have not made any public moves. I have launched the update of the budget framework through the finance department and reserved the right to bargain after the numbers. I have signaled to the mayor the need for a closed review of priorities. The main thing is not to lose the committee as the center of decision-making.
