Today (7th), a Red Star News reporter learned from the Chengdu Municipal Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau that the “14th Five-Year Plan Implementation Plan for the Renovation of Old Courtyards in Chengdu Urban Areas” (referred to as the “Implementation Plan”) has now been released. This means that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the renovation of old courtyards in Chengdu not only has a clear target blueprint, but also has a "task list" for specific implementation. According to the "Implementation Plan", Chengdu will vigorously transform and upgrade old urban courtyards, prevent and resolve major safety risks, focus on improving the living environment, fill in functional shortcomings, improve management services, and create a more beautiful environment, better functions, and more convenient life , "Happy Chengdu" with a more harmonious community. ▲How to improve an old community in Chengdu after it is renovated? The "Implementation Plan" proposes that by the end of 2022, major safety risks such as D-level dangerous buildings, gas, electricity, waterlogging, and public security in the old courtyard will be completely eliminated; By the end of the “Fourth Five-Year Plan” period, Chengdu has basically completed the renovation of old urban courtyards that need to be renovated before the end of 2004. How to transform? The "Implementation Plan" clarifies five principles. The first principle is "people-oriented and focused". In the renovation of old courtyards in Chengdu cities and towns, we must put the safety of people's lives and property first, make every effort to eliminate major safety risks such as building structures and gas, comprehensively implement rainwater and sewage diversion renovations, fully solicit residents' wishes, and focus on renovation and improvement of courtyard facilities and facilities. Municipal infrastructure, improve the level of public services such as community elderly care, childcare, and medical care, and promote the construction of a complete residential community that is safe, healthy, well-equipped, livable, and well-managed. The second principle is to "adapt measures to local conditions and implement precise policies." In this regard, Chengdu will adhere to the principle of "first overall planning and design, and then promote implementation in batches", strengthen regional coordination, synchronize physical examinations, synchronized planning, and synchronized plans for the renewal of old courtyards and areas, scientifically determine transformation goals, and refine the preparation of transformation plans, implement quality improvement projects, do our best and within our capabilities, and put an end to performance projects and image projects. The third principle is "multiple parties participate, and all parties build and enjoy". We will adhere to the principle of "party and government leadership, social participation in government construction, and residents' autonomous government", and integrate resources in accordance with the model of "municipal-level coordination, industry support, district-level leadership, street entities, community mobilization, and resident participation" , diversified responsibilities, mobilize all parties to support and participate in transformation, and achieve decision-making, development, construction, construction management, effect evaluation, and results sharing. Principle 4 is to “give priority to conservation and inherit history.” Taking into account the inheritance of history, improving functions and protection and utilization, implement the protection and repair requirements of historical buildings, historical and cultural blocks, etc., and strengthen the protection of ancient and famous trees and native trees. While improving living conditions and environmental quality, it also highlights the characteristics of the city and continues the historical context. The fifth principle is to "pay equal attention to construction and management and achieve long-term governance." Guided by strengthening grassroots party building, we will integrate community governance capacity building into the whole process of transformation, build a grassroots consultation and resident autonomy system in accordance with the principle of "autonomy first, then rectification", explore smart property services and epidemic prevention and disaster prevention management models, and improve the long-term effectiveness of courtyards. governance mechanism. What to change? The "Implementation Plan" clarifies the objects of transformation. In principle, the renovation objects are those built before the end of 2004 within the city or county (Chengguan Town), which have safety hazards, disrepair and neglect, imperfect municipal supporting facilities, imperfect community service facilities, lack of basic residential functions, and residents’ willingness to transform Intense residential compound. However, old courtyards that have been renovated since 2015, as well as those that require individual renovations of water, electricity, gas, and communications, are not included in this renovation plan. From the perspective of renovation content, each old courtyard renovation project can include four categories: safety, basic, improvement, and improvement. The safety category refers to the content that must be implemented to eliminate major safety risks such as building structures and gas. This includes a comprehensive investigation and rectification of safety hazards such as gas, power supply, drainage, fire protection, security and building structure in the courtyard. Among them, D-level dangerous buildings should complete the evacuation and emergency response in a timely manner. Such cases should be immediately investigated and reformed.

The basic category focuses on the maintenance of building roofs, exterior walls, rainwater and sewage diversion and other public parts. This is based on the will of the masses and should be changed. The perfect category is content that is implemented on the premise of meeting the basic category standards. In accordance with the principle of "install if you can, install as quickly as you can", we encourage the installation of elevators to be included in the overall planning and implementation of courtyard renovation. This kind of respects the will of the people and changes if possible. The improved category is content that is implemented on the premise that the basic category standards have been reached and there are relatively complete supporting facilities. Improve the standard of a complete residential community with reference to basic public service facilities, convenient commercial service facilities, municipal supporting infrastructure, property management services, community management mechanisms and other complete residential community standards. This type of work is based on reality and actively promoted. What are the steps of the transformation procedure? The "Implementation Plan" clarifies the transformation procedure. The first step is to establish grassroots governance organizations. It is necessary to adhere to "autonomy first and then rectify", and the establishment of property owners' committees or courtyard residents' autonomous organizations will be a prerequisite for starting the transformation. The sub-district office will guide the courtyards to establish property owners' committees or courtyard residents' autonomous organizations, and improve the courtyard convention. The second step is to conduct a public opinion survey. It is necessary to give full play to community mobilization and organizational capabilities, activate the role of autonomous organizations, fully solicit residents' wishes, conduct public opinion voting in accordance with laws and regulations, and start courtyard renovation work when specified conditions are met. The third step is to establish a long-term autonomy mechanism. Improve the property management service system, provide property services for individual courtyards by introducing professional property service companies, entrusting other managers or self-management by owners, explore and implement a trust-based property service model; establish a special maintenance fund deposit for old courtyard residences , use and management mechanism. The fourth step is to prepare a transformation plan. All districts (cities) and counties should strictly implement various specifications and standards for the renovation of old courtyards, actively guide community planning designers, engineers and other professionals to serve communities and courtyards, fully listen to the demands of the masses, prepare renovation plans according to local conditions, and publicize and collect fees according to procedures. With the consent of the residents. The fifth step is to involve multiple parties in organizing and implementing the plan. The sub-district office urges the implementing units to promote project construction, organizes courtyard autonomous organizations to participate in the supervision of the entire transformation process; establishes community residents' councils and other public discussion platforms, organizes residents, property rights units, professional business units, etc. to participate, and coordinates all parties in a timely manner demands. The sixth step is to complete the approval and construction acceptance. Establish a management mechanism for the entire transformation process, implement a notification and commitment system, and optimize the project approval process. In various projects such as the renovation of old courtyard pipelines, building repair and reinforcement, facade renovation, elevator installation, and renovation of public security facilities, all responsible entities should strictly implement project quality and construction safety responsibilities, and various industry departments should strengthen supervision and management. After the project is completed, the district (city) and county will organize relevant departments (units), autonomous organizations, and resident representatives to carry out acceptance inspection in accordance with regulations. The seventh step is to build a governance service system. Establish an intelligent courtyard emergency management system with group prevention, group treatment, and joint prevention and joint treatment; make good use of active party building guidance and grassroots governance mechanisms; strengthen the organization and development of culture, sports and other activities that enrich the people's spiritual and cultural life; provide elderly care, childcare, and assistance Meals and other convenient services that benefit the people.

This type of subsidy funds should be fully used for the renovation of old courtyards.

After an old courtyard establishes an owners' committee or residents' autonomous organization, establishes an autonomy convention, and operates a property service mechanism for the first time, each courtyard will be given a one-time subsidy of 50,000 yuan. This type of subsidy funds is used for daily maintenance and management of old courtyards, and the sub-district office should guide and standardize the declaration and use of funds. Jinjiang District, Qingyang District, Jinniu District, Wuhou District, and Chenghua District implement the initiative to add elevators to existing residences independently, and each will be given a subsidy of 200,000 yuan.
