A \”stumbling door\” becomes a \”smooth door\”

How to get warm and thoughtful responses to residents’ urgent needs? Recently, the northwest gate of Changbai No. 3 Village, Xincun Street, Yanji was changed from a \”stumbling gate\” to a \”smooth gate\” to demonstrate the effectiveness of diverse participation in community governance. Since then, it has been much easier for residents to enter and exit, and they feel a full sense of gain.

\”There was originally a horizontal bar under the rotating leaf of this revolving door, which was more than 10 centimeters above the ground. It was a bit difficult to cross it as I got older. \”In the past, Aunt Zhang had to go through the northwest gate of Changbai Third Village every time. I couldn\’t help but complain a few times. It turns out that in the 1990s, in order to protect the property safety of community residents, Changbai Village No. 3 installed a relatively narrow revolving door common in old Shanghai at the community gate. Due to the special geographical conditions of the community, residents only enter and exit through the revolving door. The community will only open the gate when large vehicles enter or exit.

Before the renovation

Times have changed, and the original rotating \”security door\” has become a community residents’ troubles. \”When the elderly go in and out, they need to hold on to the door frame and lift their feet. Children can easily trip and fall when they go in and out. Even adults who carry too many things will bump when they go in and out,\” said Mr. Wang, a resident.

Integrating barrier-free construction into the construction process of \”Beautiful Homes\” is the pursuit of Yanji Xincun Street. However, the community will only have a \”beautiful home\” construction plan at the end of the year. By then, the community gate can be updated to allow residents to travel without worries. But right now, everyone has an urgent need to travel \”without stumbling\”…

Can we replace the gate first and then start building a \”beautiful home\” by the end of the year? The reporter learned from the Changbai Village Neighborhood Committee that doing so would increase costs.\”We asked the property management company to come and calculate the door and found that the cost of replacing a new door alone is more than 10,000 yuan, which is relatively expensive. However, the construction of \’Beautiful Home\’ will start at the end of the year, and replacing the door in advance may cause waste.\”

As early as the beginning of the year, the neighborhood committee through the \”Four Hundred\” visits learned about residents\’ travel needs and suggestions for transforming revolving doors. The staff also hung signs by the door to remind everyone to pay attention to their feet. They will also go to the door to remind people to pay attention to safety during the peak time of entry and exit on rainy days.

After comprehensive consideration, it is the lowest cost and most efficient measure to transform the existing revolving door in the community first. Thanks to the neighborhood committee’s visits and surveys and community residents’ discussions, the revolving door renovation plan was advanced in an orderly manner. The neighborhood committee of the community held several resident representative coordination meetings, and in conjunction with the property committee and the property management company, conducted multiple discussions and on-site inspections on the feasibility and safety of the northwest gate\’s renovation on the original door, and controlled the cost of the renovation. , complete the transformation task.

On the day of completion, all the residents who came in and out applauded and praised the project. During a follow-up visit, the Changbai Third Village Neighborhood Committee also discovered that the newly renovated revolving doors did not have rain shelters, and residents had to close their umbrellas in order to enter or exit on rainy days. To this end, the neighborhood committee found an enthusiastic tenant, Mr. Zhao, who helped build an awning to protect the door from wind and rain.

From the innovative governance model of \”community steward\” to the installation of \”good neighbor ramps\” along the streets to solve the problem of eight steps… the good neighbor spirit of \”quality, vitality, warmth, and good governance\” is in Yanji Xincun streets are very dense. The future, Yanji Xincun StreetWe will deeply explore and extend the connotation and extension of \”Good Neighborly Yanji\” and continuously advance towards the people\’s yearning for a better life.
