In the Ivanovo region proposed to increase fines for snow and damaged trees

In the Ivanovo region intend to increase administrative fines for violations of the rules of improvement. The relevant amendments to the regional law were considered by the deputies of the regional Duma at an extraordinary meeting on November 12. The change was initiated by the Committee on Housing Policy and Housing.

The parliamentarians explained the need to revise the sanctions by the fact that the current fines no longer provide the proper preventive effect. In some cases, punishment is cheaper than the elimination of the violation itself. In addition, many provisions of the law have not been updated since 2015-2018.

The project provides for an increase in fines for different categories of violators:

for citizens - from 2 to 5 thousand rubles;

for officials - from 20 to 50 thousand rubles;

for organizations - from 40 to 60 thousand rubles, and in some cases - up to 100 thousand rubles.

Depending on the specific violation, the amount of sanctions will increase by 2–30 thousand rubles.

Another innovation concerns the exclusion of warnings from the list of possible penalties for certain articles. In such cases, offenders will only be fined.
