How to get out of the predicament by changing elevators in old mixed-production buildings

 The "series of reports on the difficulty of transforming multi-property communities" launched by the Beijing Daily has attracted readers' attention. When the reporter combed the 12345 citizen hotline, it was found that from January 1 to 11:00 on February 12 this year, the number of calls from citizens reflecting the renovation of old residential areas reached 3622, of which more than 800 involved property rights issues. For example, in Building 1, Anyuan Beili, Chaoyang District, the "elderly" elevators that have been in use for more than 30 years have frequent failures, and the safety hazards are worrying. Residents continue to call for new elevators, but it is difficult to make progress in the local streets for many years. The key to the problem is that this is an old building with mixed production owned by the central government, with as many as 18 property rights units. After the residents learned that the special maintenance funds "see the bottom", they felt that the elevator replacement was even more difficult.

Anyuan Beili Building 1 elevator problem caused residents to worry.

There are many problems with elevators in old buildings.

Lin Lin walked into building 1 of anyuan beili community. ms Zhang, a resident, pressed the elevator key. after more than ten seconds, the car stopped on the first floor and the door slowly opened. "It went well this time." Ms. Zhang said that the building has 25 floors and is home to 200 residents. There are only two elevators in the building, which often break down. She and her neighbors have repeatedly encountered the situation that the door is stuck and cannot be opened after the elevator stops.

After stepping into the car, Ms. Zhang pressed the floor key. "There have been problems in this link." One day not long ago, Ms. Zhang came home at night and just entered the elevator. Before she could press the floor button, all the buttons automatically lit up and kept flashing. Then the elevator began to go up. Each floor stopped, opened and closed, and then stopped after going up... "It's nothing to stop layer by layer like this. The most frightening thing is that I never know where the elevator stops when it opens."

At this time, the elevator reached the designated floor and the door slowly opened. Pull the reporter out of the elevator, Ms. Zhang this just relieved. "I have encountered the elevator's willful stop twice. When the door was opened, I found that the car was either a piece higher than the ground or a piece lower than the ground. Fortunately, the distance from the ground was only about 20cm each time. Be careful and you can get out of the elevator yourself." She said that some neighbors were not so "lucky" and encountered situations where the car could not open the door when it arrived. Ms. Zhang said that there are many elderly people and children in this building. What worries everyone most is that the elevator failure keeps the elderly or children in it.

"From pressing the elevator button to getting out of the elevator, there may be problems in every link." Resident Ms. Liu said that Anyuan Beili Building 1 has been built for more than 30 years, and the two elevators in the building are also "senior service", older than themselves. Due to the aging of the elevators, various failures occur frequently, especially in recent years. In recent years, failures have become more frequent. "After every failure, the property will come to repair immediately, but it will not last long."

The same district contrast disparity

Residents reported that in addition to the safety hazards caused by the aging of the elevator, there are many other problems in this building. "Flying lines are everywhere, not beautiful and not safe." "The balcony leaks in the rainy season. Repair and patch the exterior facade of the building." "Sundries are often piled up in the corridor and in front of the garbage bin station."

Subsequently, Ms. Zhang took the reporter to other residential buildings in the community for a turn. The reporter found that there are 12 residential buildings in Anyuan Beili. Compared with Building 1, Building 5, Building 9 and other residential buildings are like "beauty filters". The facade of the building is clean and tidy, the road surface is flat and spacious, the corridor is clean and bright, all flying lines enter the trough, and even the elevators are replaced.

"Do you think it looks like it's in the same neighborhood?" Ms. Zhang said that Building 1 and other residential buildings belong to Anyuan Beili District and are managed by the same property company. In recent years, several buildings in the community have been renovated one after another, and the old appearance has been changed. Building 1 is not only dirty and messy, but also the elevator failure problem that is the most troublesome for everyone has not been solved.

cause of pursuit

18 property rights parties difficult to reach a consensus

The Anyuan Beili community was originally an open community, but gradually built a fence for ease of management, but due to historical reasons, the No. 1 building was separated from other residential buildings and formed a small courtyard independently. Due to the confusion of property rights and management rights, the property can only carry out the most basic work such as garbage removal and cleaning, involving the replacement of elevators, it seems powerless." The relevant person in charge of the sub-district of the Asian Games Village said frankly, "We are as eager as the residents to solve the safety problems caused by elevators, and we have tried various methods, but every attempt has had little effect."

There are 12 residential buildings in Anyuan Beili Community. The property rights of Building 1 are particularly complicated, involving 18 property rights units, of which more than half are central delivery houses and the others are municipal property rights. "The first thing we and the residents of the building thought of was the same-to withdraw the special maintenance funds. As there are so many property units involved, as early as 2020 we will try to 'blow the whistle' and hold a consultation meeting to bring the units together to understand the use of the special maintenance funds in order to promote the elevator replacement." The person in charge said that the street had contacted various companies again and again, and each company sent letters. However, among the 18 property rights units, some companies have gone bankrupt, and some cannot contact people. Although the final consultation meeting was indeed held, only three or four companies came. Representatives of the company also have their own difficulties, such as cumbersome processes, long cycles, and financial difficulties. After the meeting, the street has repeatedly tried to contact various property owners, but there has been no progress.

The plan to withdraw special maintenance funds to replace the elevator has been delayed, but what should we do about the residents' demands? The street has made other attempts: if we can promote the renovation of the old residential area in Building 1, it will not only solve the elevator safety problem, but also effectively improve the living environment of the residents, but this attempt will soon encounter a bottleneck.

It is understood that in accordance with the requirements of the "Beijing Old Community Comprehensive Renovation Work Manual" issued in 2020, according to the ownership relationship of old houses, the central and state agencies are responsible for the comprehensive renovation of the old community of the central delivery house. The main body is responsible for the comprehensive renovation of the central delivery house of the department; the district governments of Beijing are responsible for the comprehensive renovation of the old communities within their jurisdiction. The scope, content, standards and investment of the comprehensive renovation project of the old residential areas of the central and state organs shall be approved by the Central Administration Bureau and the State Administration Bureau; the comprehensive renovation project of the old residential areas in Beijing shall be reported by the subdistrict office and the township government, examined and approved by the district government, and included in the renovation plan after being examined and approved by the joint meeting on comprehensive renovation of old residential areas in Beijing.

If the old reform involves multiple property rights units, the processes and progress of each unit are not uniform, and it is difficult to push forward the reform. Besides, Anyuan Beili Building 1 is a typical mixed-production old building. The renovation of the central delivery room and the renovation of the old residential area in Beijing are two sets of rules. What should we do? "the person in charge told the reporter that some residential buildings in Anyuan Beili District have been renovated, but these buildings are either single property rights, or one of the many property rights involved accounts for a high proportion, but the proportion of each property right in Building 1 is balanced.

However, there are also cases of successful old buildings with mixed production-a number of property rights units after consultation, the old change matters entrusted to a property rights unit. Entrusted to municipal enterprises, can be in accordance with the Beijing old community transformation mechanism to promote, and vice versa in accordance with the central delivery room transformation process to go. That is to say, the key to this approach is to have a property rights unit to take the lead." The streets of the Asian Games Village also intend to learn from this successful experience and seek the support of various property rights units for this idea.

Lin "coordinated a circle, for various reasons, no property right is willing to lead this head." Many attempts have had little effect, and the territory can only turn to urge the property to increase the daily cleaning work of Building 1 and do a good job in elevator inspections. Regardless of working days or holidays, staff are arranged to be on duty 24 hours a day to ensure that once the elevator fails, they can arrive at the scene as quickly as possible and start emergency repairs. "But this method will treat the symptoms rather than the root cause."

Break the game

To discuss and govern together to break the problem

During the Spring Festival, the elevator in Building 1 of Anyuan Beili failed again, and the residents' demands for solving the elevator safety problem became more urgent. In order to find a way to replace the elevator as soon as possible, the street organized a residents' consultation meeting, invited residents' representatives to discuss solutions, and did enough homework before the meeting. It is with the convening of this coordination meeting that everyone realizes that the old problems have not been resolved, and new and more difficult problems have emerged.

Mr. Li, who participated in the consultation meeting, told reporters that he and the residents had been hoping to withdraw special maintenance funds to replace the elevator, but after many times of coordination in the territory, they finally learned about the general use of the special maintenance funds for this building. "The special maintenance funds for this building have been" bottomed out ". Even if they can be fully withdrawn, they are far from meeting the demand for replacing the two elevators."

The consultation was held for several hours. Some residents suggested whether the elevator could be replaced by the owner's fund-raising method, and the special maintenance funds extracted could be used for other maintenance and renovation. Some residents also questioned whether the fund-raising method could be promoted in the whole building. After the meeting, the street with the residents put forward a variety of ideas and suggestions, once again with the community, the property to communicate.

After discussing it over and over again, everyone had a new idea. "This time we want to try the way of" party, government and masses "to discuss and govern together, that is, the participation of the territory, property and residents." The relevant person in charge of the street said that next they intend to negotiate with residents on this plan and solicit their opinions. However, this is still a complicated and difficult process. Each household is located on different floors and has different needs for elevators. If the funds are raised, how to share them, all the details need to be carefully considered. Whether it is really feasible remains to be further communicated.
