ArmInfo. The Administrative Court has rejected the collective claim
against Yerevan Municipality. The claim was signed by 116 people and
disputed the lawfulness of construction of the cafe in the Students'
Garden.
"We are the owners of our city" group told ArmInfo the rejection was
conditioned by the fact that actually the claimants' rights were not
violated. To recall, over the construction of the cafe, 20 trees
were cut, and the grassplot adjoining the monument to Academician
Hambardzumyan was destroyed.
In May an open letter signed by 20 thsd people was sent to Armenian
President Serzh Sargsyan. The letter contained an appeal to suspend
the construction in the Students' Garden, restore the initial sight
of the territory and return it to the Yerevan residents' use.
In addition, in late summer Transparency International applied to the
court against the Municipality of Yerevan. The claim was filed on the
ground that the Municipality failed to present the documents concerning
the construction of the cafe within the time stipulated by the law.
