After a preliminary investigation, the old urban communities that need to be rebuilt in China involve hundreds of millions of residents, covering a wide range and a large number. "According to the investigation and pilot in 1 year, these communities may have been built for more than 20 years. Because the original design standard is relatively low and the maintenance is not in place, several problems are particularly prominent. " Yan Huang said: First, the pipe network is dilapidated, and facilities such as water supply and drainage, power grid, gas and optical fiber are missing and seriously aging; Second, the lack of public services, such as pension, property, culture and entertainment, fitness, vehicle storage and so on. Especially in some old communities with a high degree of aging, elevators are especially needed; Third, the public environment is poor, including broken roads, disorder and illegal buildings.
The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, together with the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Finance, issued the Notice on Improving the Renovation of Old Residential Areas in 20 19 to comprehensively promote the renovation of old urban residential areas. By the end of May this year, there were170,000 old urban areas in China that needed renovation, involving hundreds of millions of residents.
It is understood that the renovation of old residential areas will be initially divided into three categories: first, to ensure basic facilities, such as the maintenance and improvement of municipal infrastructure such as water, electricity, gas and roads directly related to residents' lives. It is not mandatory to install elevators, but it can be supported with the consent of residents; The second is to upgrade infrastructure, including public venues, parking lots, activity rooms and property houses. If conditions permit; The third is to improve the content of public services, including improving facilities such as community pension, child care, medical care, food assistance, housekeeping, and express delivery. Yan Huang said, considering the great regional differences, each province can make a list of contents that need to be rebuilt in a city or community according to the actual situation and urban needs.
Yan Huang said that even if the old urban residential areas are renovated, it is difficult to maintain the effect of renovation for a long time without a long-term maintenance and operation management mechanism. At present, residents in old residential areas often have no habit of paying for services, and they need to pay property fees after renovation, which requires a change in thinking and understanding.
Yan Huang said that from the pilot situation, to solve this problem, on the one hand, we should do mass ideological work, strengthen publicity and guidance, and raise the awareness of residents in old communities to purchase services; On the other hand, to mobilize residents' understanding and support, the government must provide a platform for residents to fully negotiate and let everyone participate in the transformation from the beginning.
From the perspective of pilot cities, according to the actual situation of residents' wishes and ability to pay, the property model was selected through independent consultation and achieved good results. In many renovated residential areas, the collection rate of property fees exceeds 80%, and the collection rate of parking fees exceeds 90%.
Yan Huang revealed that the next step is to find out the types of old urban residential areas and residents' willingness to transform, and on this basis, define the standards and scope of the transformation of old urban residential areas. At the same time, mobilize the masses to participate extensively, ensure the smooth progress of the transformation work, and promote the establishment of a long-term follow-up management mechanism in the community. In addition, we will actively innovate the investment and financing mechanism for the transformation of old urban communities, including exploring sustainable financial support methods and attracting social forces to participate in a market-oriented manner.
