First in the city! Residents of a residential area in Bengbu raised their own funds to exchange elevators.

The news of Bengbu Huaihe Morning News has changed, and the houses built around 2000 have also appeared various uncomfortable "menopause" symptoms. Not only the residents of multi-storey residential buildings want to install elevators, but also the elevators of many high-rise residential areas have gradually entered the "old age". Elevator outage, clip people, sudden fall and other failure problems make owners worry, the desire to replace the new elevator is getting stronger and stronger.

Residents held a democratic consultation on the scene

Elevator failure has become a thorn in the hearts of residents

Cai Xueying, 80, no longer regards going out for a walk and going up and down the stairs as a worry. The building is replacing the elevator. In the future, you really don't have to worry about going up and down the stairs, let alone climb up and down by yourself. "Don't mention things, but I have to rest two or three times between going upstairs and downstairs. My health is not bad enough. There are still a few old people upstairs who can not go out without going out at ordinary times. The most afraid thing is to go upstairs and downstairs." Cai Xueying, who lives on the 11th floor of Building A1 in Times Square, expressed the aspirations of many elderly people in the old buildings.

Recently, Building A1 of Times Square Community is replacing elevators, not only to completely solve the troubles of residents going up and down the stairs, but also to become the first residential area in Bengbu City to use the funds of the Communist Party of China and residents' self-raised funds to replace elevators.

The Times Square Community, located at the intersection of Huaihe Road and Shengping Street, was built in 2007. Building A1 is 18 stories high, with one to three floors being the facade of merchants. There are 11 households on each floor above 4 floors, with a total of 165 residents. There are more elderly people over 60 years old in Building A1 of the community. Up to now, this community has gone through five property companies to settle in and manage.

At the end of February 2019, several elevators in building A1 of the residential area were all shut down due to failure, and the corridor was piled up with garbage. the 4th property officially announced its withdrawal from the residential area property management. The Spring Festival that year was unforgettable for 165 households, because before and after the Spring Festival, all the residents of the whole building climbed the stairs, and some old people living in high-rise buildings could not go downstairs for more than 40 days.

Although after the Spring Festival, the new property company took over the community and repaired the elevator as soon as possible, but because the elevator has been in use for a long time, it still breaks down for three days and two ends. Residents are still trapped in the elevator from time to time, caught by the elevator, or experience the sudden fall of the elevator. The thrilling moment.

Resident representatives and community workers carefully check the cost of elevator replacement

After nine months, the neighborhood was finally replaced by an elevator.

In April 2020, the community residents Wu Jingui and a group of people to reflect to the community, the elevator kept out of order, always follow behind so repair is not a long-term solution. Residents suggested to the community neighborhood committee to change the elevator, completely eliminate security risks.

The property company also reported to the community that elevators have to be repaired several times a month, and the failures are indeed too frequent. Since then, neighborhood committees and residents have begun planning to replace the elevator.

It took nearly 9 months to change the elevator in this community.

Yesterday afternoon, when the reporter came to Area A of Times Square, he found several large unopened boxes piled in the yard. "This is the elevator we just bought. The workers are dismantling the old elevator and installing the new elevator for us." He Yanyan, secretary of the Party Committee of Tongyuan Community in Qingnian Street, told reporters that there are three elevators in the whole building from east to west, and the first old elevator is being dismantled. In order to ensure that residents will not be greatly affected when going upstairs and downstairs, they are all dismantled and replaced one by one.

The reporter found in the elevator room of the building that the workers were carrying out construction in one of the elevator shafts. Although the other two elevators were still in operation, the appearance of the two elevators was already visible to the naked eye. Taking one of the elevators, the reporter felt the obvious shaking of the car. "Every time I go up and down the stairs, I'm worried, but I can't do it without sitting. I'm so high. I'll climb up for at least 20 minutes and wait for the new elevator to come and relieve us." Some residents who took the elevator home told reporters that they had already paid 3500 yuan and were waiting to take the new elevator.

Everyone can participate, everyone's business is up to everyone.

The joy of the residents is beyond words, but the twists and turns experienced in order to change the elevator in the past 9 months can be imagined.

"We held a democratic consultation for the first time to solicit the opinions of the owners. A total of more than 20 households came. Most of the owners did not agree or were waiting and were unwilling to ask about this matter." He Yanyan said that on July 25, 2020, the community party branch, property, industry committee members, and residents held a democratic consultation meeting in the community to jointly negotiate specific matters concerning elevator replacement. At the meeting, the residents reacted strongly and had different opinions on the replacement of elevators in the residential area. Some elderly people have a prominent problem of difficulty in getting up and down the stairs, and there is a high demand for replacing elevators, but this idea is opposed by some low-floor owners. Some owners think that their home floor is low, it doesn't matter whether they change it or not, and they are not willing to pay for it.

To change the elevator, completely solve the hidden dangers, must get the support of most owners. In order to promote the progress of the incident, the community party committee decided to set up a resident representative group, asking residents to elect representatives, and representatives of the community and owners will work together to do the work of the owners and unify their thinking.

Because there is no experience in changing elevators in the community to learn from, the neighborhood committee and residents feel a little black-eyed. So it was decided to use the most "stupid" method to solicit opinions and suggestions from door to door.

The community party committee gradually understands the opinions of each household on the issue of replacing elevators. In view of the problem that many residents are unwilling to pay the replacement fee due to their young age and low floor, the person in charge of the community party committee leads the team to work door to door to resolve differences in time. In addition, the elevator installation company was arranged to answer the relevant questions of elevator replacement for residents. The elevator replacement plan and cost of Building A1 in Times Square Community were introduced in detail. After repeated negotiation and communication by the owners, all the owners agreed to replace the elevator and determined that the cost of 3500 yuan for each household would be collected by the industry committee and assisted by the community.

The new elevator has arrived and is placed in the courtyard of the community.

The whole process is open, dispelling residents' concerns.

According to the negotiation resolution, the community is determined to be jointly implemented by the property company, the community, residents and the construction party as the main body of the work. The community industry committee formulated the "self-raised elevator renewal plan" and took the lead in organizing a democratic consultation meeting to solicit written opinions from residents. At the same time, the plan was voted by residents, and every step was publicly announced.

"We attach great importance to the opinions and suggestions of every resident, and all issues are discussed by everyone." He Yanyan said that the owner's WeChat group has become an important channel for information release. The budget for changing elevators, how much each household has to pay, and which households are willing to participate... All information is released in the group at the first time.

After the plan is finalized, the community industry committee will open tenders to purchase equipment and installation units, and at the same time form an owner supervision group through democratic elections to supervise the products and install the "three guarantees" responsibilities throughout the process.

"There are people who say that it is difficult to be obedient, and some people say that the community and the representatives of the owners want to make money from it for personal gain. The matter of changing the elevator almost died halfway." Wu Jingui said that at the beginning of the elevator replacement project, he was selected as the owner's representative. He went to the bank to open an account to receive the residents' money. He used a notebook to keep accounts and uploaded the transfer records to WeChat group to accept everyone's supervision. However, even so, some people still think that there is something fishy in it. Also because of all kinds of suspicion and smear, the representatives of the owners once wanted to give up the project, and the intervention and encouragement of the community made the representatives persevere.

By October last year, with the funds raised and the funds raised, the elevator replacement project had been confirmed to be ready to start. Now, seeing that the new elevator will be in place, the whole process is transparent and open, and some wait-and-see residents have finally dispelled their worries and have to invest in the elevator replacement to enjoy the convenience brought by the new elevator in the future.

Wu Jingui happily published the account book, "More than 120 households have raised money, and there will be a balance after changing the elevator. Everyone wants to take this opportunity to renovate the door and facade together, inside and outside. Renovate, we live comfortably, and house prices will rise." Wu Jingui said that although the process was tortuous, everyone persisted step by step, but later it became more and more smooth, because every step was open, and the residents could see that it was clear that the public mind was seeking self-interest.

The staff who replaced the elevator calculated that the residents here should be able to take the new elevator this Spring Festival. "Recalling that during the Spring Festival two years ago, we climbed the stairs every day. This year, we will take a new elevator during the Spring Festival. The thorn in my heart felt pulled out." Resident Cai Xueying said that he didn't have to go out in fear at last, and he felt much more at ease. (Reporter Chen Yao)
