ArmInfo. A total of 10,000 people have already signed under the open
letter against construction of a cafe in "Student Park" near the
Agrarian University in Yerevan. Administrator of the group "We are the
owners of our city" created on Facebook Artur Avtandilyan told ArmInfo
signature collection will be prolonged till May 14. "If necessary,
we will use all the measures stipulated by the law," he said.
The open letter will be submitted to President Serzh Sargsyan, speaker
of the parliament Hovik Abrahamyan, Prime Minister Tigran Sarkisyan
and Yerevan Mayor Gagik Beglaryan. The letter says the large-scale
construction was started without coordination with students and
the residents of the apartment houses near the park. This violates
Armenian legislation. 'We demand to stop construction and restore
the former image of the territory and return it to the residents of
the capital city to use', - the letter says.
The Association of Consumers of Armenia says the cafe "swallowed"
20 trees, which is proved by photos and video-materials. While the
Nature Protection Ministry and the Yerevan Municipality try to find
out which of them is responsible for the illegal felling, a group "We
are the owners of our city" has been created at Facebook social net.
