Turn 98 January 2027Today I am preparing a deputy package (for submission to the next session): 1) A council decision approving the "Transport Addendum for Dakhnivka" — time windows 22:00–06:00 for work near entrances, prohibition of work that blocks traffic entrances during peak hours, definition of control points for execution. 2) Monthly written reports from the transport enterprise and the responsible executive committee department by the 10th of each month (what has been done/what has been postponed/reasons/compensatory measures or schedule restoration). 3) Phased implementation: start of implementation from a specific date (I ask the performers to define it in the package), as well as a list of "work completed" criteria for acceptance. 4) Linking the repair of entrances to the readiness status: no...accepted

Thoughts
I see that coastal projects will now start to "stall" without design documentation, estimates, and clear bank conditions. For me, this is a signal: I need to push not with slogans, but with procedures. For Dakhnivka, I have already gathered an approach: dates, phasing, night windows, and monthly written reports without delays. This time I want to secure the transport block: so that between 22:00–06:00 night work, entrance repairs, and traffic do not conflict. My influence in the city is low, but my reputation is high — which means if I formulate it concisely and firmly, the deputies will not be able to "water down" the decision.

Diary. 2026-12-29: I am again convinced that without procedures, the schedules will "slip". Today I am preparing a transport addendum for Dakhnivka for the session: time windows 22:00–06:00, control points, monthly written reporting by the 10th of the month, and criteria for actual fulfillment. In parallel, I wrote to Pavlo Humeniuk and Oleksii Doroshenko to prepare their positions and avoid delays. My...
Turn 719 December 2026I am preparing a deputy package for the next consideration: 1) a demand to the city water utility (through the relevant department) to provide the status and work plan for the sewerage design documentation/phased implementation for Dakhnivka: list of documents, agreed dates for transitions between stages (not "approximate"), responsible executors; 2) monthly written reporting on Dakhnivka by the 10th of the month (what has been done, what has been postponed with reasons, what documents/stages have been received or are expected); 3) an obligation for the executor not to change the phasing without written approval from the relevant commission of the city council. Without major expenses: only organizational work, but I am translating it into a specific procedural decision/appeal with dates. In parallel, I am preparing a short briefing note for 1 page...accepted

The city is moving in parallel streams: the coastal zone is under control, the bank is tightening requirements, and in my head, the main thing is Dakhnivka. Everyone is now talking about "audit" and "packages," but without monthly written control points, people will again fall into a waiting mode. I have low influence, so I work like a former director: I push for documents, deadlines, and responsible parties, without loud words. The next step is to prepare a short deputy package/amendment or draft appeal to oblige the water utility and transport enterprise regarding Dakhnivka with a schedule and written reporting, and to prevent it from getting stuck in "organizational work."
Options
- Prepare a deputy appeal/draft decision: oblige the water utility to provide the design documentation/phasing of Dakhnivka sewerage and a monthly written report by the 10th of the month.
- Organize private negotiations with Humeniuk: obtain an agreed night mode from 22:00 to 06:00 and a schedule for transport work in Dakhnivka, record it in a letter/protocol...
- Publicly support the transparency of the coastal zone, but simultaneously demand that contractors apply a "minimum data set" to Dakhnivka (sewerage/transport…
Choice. I choose the first option: this most directly activates my usual mechanism of discipline — written deadlines and control points specifically for Dakhnivka. In parallel, I will be able to use the obtained wording for the transport block.
Diary. Today I am convinced again: while the city talks about "audit and control," on the ground, dates and papers are needed. I'm sticking to my approach: a concise package for Dakhnivka with stages and monthly written reporting by the 10th of the month, without vague wording. Tomorrow/next turn, I want to formalize the transport block with Humeniuk in the same procedural way, so that it doesn't turn out like before:...
Turn 529 November 20261) I will prepare a deputy package for the session (short formulations): - Item A: "Establish a phased work plan for Dakhnivka's sewage system design documentation: complete design documentation by the end of the first week of February 2027; submit for expertise no later than 1 week after completion (approximately early February 2027); expertise and approval – approximately 6-10 weeks within February-March 2027." I will clarify that this is a work schedule, not a "promise," and I will request the fixation of actual dates in written reports. - Item B: "The water utility undertakes to provide the deputy commission/executive committee with a written report on the progress of the design documentation by the 10th of each month (what has been done, what is on hold, reasons, next stage) and attach supporting materials (correspondence...accepted

I received the deadlines for the design documentation from Mykola Sydorenko – this is no longer a rumor, but guidelines. But I know that people in the city council like to say "approximately," and then everything drags on. I have weak influence, so I work like in school: briefly, concretely, so that the council's decision has control points. It is necessary to strengthen this through a deputy inquiry/draft decision: to fix the submission for expertise, name those responsible, and demand a monthly written report from the water utility. At the same time, I am not arguing with Humeniuk: transport for Dakhnivka is a parallel block, but now the main thing is the sewage system as the basis for street repairs and safe movement.
Options
- Prepare a deputy package for the session: 1) demand from the water utility to provide/approve the design documentation schedule for Dakhnivka with submission dates for expertise; 2) monthly written rep...
- Personally contact Mykola Sydorenko to clarify who exactly is the contractor for the design documentation and whether there is already "input data/coordination" in writing, and ask for co...
- Additionally, address the transport block: a letter/inquiry to Pavlo Humeniuk about the night mode schedule and the coordination of access road repairs for Dakhnivka, to provide backup, sh...
- Link the sewage system to the land and construction sphere: initiate a separate conversation/meeting with architect Iryna Bondar on how the design documentation/corridors can be...
Choice. I choose option 1: I will fix what Sydorenko has already announced with dates and responsible parties. This way, I will gain leverage for control, not just another letter in the files.
Statement: «For now, no broad statement: I am preparing a precise council decision for Dakhnivka with dates and written progress control of the sewage system design documentation.»
Diary. 2026-11-19: I received approximate deadlines for the sewage system design documentation for Dakhnivka from Mykola Sydorenko. But "approximate" is a risk. Therefore, I am preparing a deputy package for the session with phased dates, the obligation of the water utility to provide written reports monthly (by the 10th), and a demand to officially record the actual transitions between stages. If they try to dilute it at the session, I will vote...
Turn 39 November 2026Today I am forming a deputy package for the session: 1) appeal/council decision "On the approval of control stages for the design of the Dakhnivka sewage system" based on the water utility's report (stages: completion of design documentation, expertise, approval/ratification) with fixed control dates and the responsible unit of the city water utility; 2) a separate item "On the implementation of a transport regime for Dakhnivka" — night mode from 22:00 to 06:00, coordination of access road repairs with traffic, and monthly written reporting by the carrier/transport enterprise for deputy control. As an appendix, I am attaching short excerpts from the letters of Sydorenko and Humeniuk (without personal data, only technical specifications). In the finalization…accepted

I have received responses from the water utility and the transport enterprise — finally without "general words." Dakhnivka needs not promises, but a schedule and responsibility: who does what, exactly, when, and how it is controlled. I have low influence in the city, so the session move needs to be narrow: a short council decision with appendices that will link to 22:00–06:00 and the stages of sewage design. Otherwise, they will drag it out again through procedures and perfunctory responses. It is also useful to coordinate the wording so that the opposition does not disrupt it due to "threats to developers," and the pro-government side does not dilute responsibility by fulfilling it "if possible."
Options
- Prepare a short draft council decision with two points: (1) Dakhnivka sewage system — approve the stages of design, expertise, and approvals with control dates; (2) …
- Prioritize the transport block: achieve an immediate decision at the session on 22:00–06:00 and access road repairs, and postpone the sewage system to the next move.
- Go through public agreement: invite Yaroshenko and Humeniuk to a working meeting so they can propose the wording themselves, and I will only support it at the commission/vote.
Choice. I choose the first option: two narrow points with control dates and monthly reporting provide me with a tangible result specifically for Dakhnivka, without dilution.
Statement: «For Dakhnivka, the council decision must have a calendar and responsibility: sewage — through specific stages of design and expertise, transport — through the night mode from 22:00 to 06:00, coordination of access road repairs, and monthly written reporting without delays.»
Diary. 2026-10-30: I have gathered the facts for Dakhnivka from the water utility and transport. Now my task is not to let it dissolve into "study." I am making a session decision with two narrow points and adding stages/modes as appendices. If they dilute it at the session, I will vote against the diluted wording, not against the idea itself. In the next move, I will check how the commission interprets monthly…
Turn 120 October 2026Preparing a deputy package for the session: (1) draft of the council's decision on the development/updating of the design and estimate documentation for the sewerage system in Dakhnivka, with stages and deadlines for submitting documents to the executive committee; (2) appendix on transport for Dakhnivka: approved time slots, ensuring night mode from 10 PM to 6 AM (without interruptions), coordination of any work within the access roads with the traffic schedule and written notification of residents, as well as monthly written reports from responsible officials/enterprises to deputies. In parallel, I ask the finance department/legal department to check the wording so that the decision does not require budget changes in the first reading.accepted

Thoughts
This move must be practical: I need not promises, but paper and concrete deadlines. For now, my influence is low, so I'm pushing through procedures – through the executive committee, the water utility, and the transport company, so that the next session has a vote with clear control points for Dakhnivka. There's little money, I won't take loans; I'll use my deputy leverage better: inquiries, draft appeals, linking to already approved technical conditions. Because if they drag it out again – the people of Dakhnivka will again be left with dismissals.
Options
- Prepare a deputy package: a council decision with demands for the design and estimate documentation for the Dakhnivka sewage system and a separate transport addendum (schedules, night mode, repair linkage...).
- Send two expanded deputy inquiries immediately: to the water utility (design and estimate documentation/deadlines/stages) and to the transport company (routes/time slots/control).
- Arrange a brief meeting with the head of the police and transport officials regarding the night mode from 22:00 to 06:00 to have written confirmation of compliance.
Choice. I choose the first option: if I include the requirements in the council's decision right away, it gives me legal force and forces the departments to work with deadlines, not 'sometime'.

Diary. Today, I've set a course for procedure: I'm preparing a deputy package for the session. The council's decision must establish Dakhnivka as the subject and oblige the executors to work with deadlines, schedules, and monthly written reports. In parallel, I sent inquiries to the water utility and transport companies to discuss facts, not assumptions, at the commission meeting. The next step is to collect responses...
