While the foundation of the Fındıklı Social Life Center was laid, Altayçeşme Park, which was completely renovated in line with the demands of the citizens, was put into service again.
During the groundbreaking and opening ceremony, İBB Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, Maltepe Mayor Ali Kılıç and İBB Deputy Secretary General Gürkan Alpay made speeches.
“OUR GOVERNMENT'S POLICY SHOULD BE DEPENDED ON AN ABSOLUTE PROTOCOL”
Emphasizing that from the moment they took office, they determined that there were protocol deficiencies and problems in the works of İBB with many institutions, İmamoğlu said, "What is interesting is that construction has started in some districts. For example; Work was started on a land belonging to the Treasury, but there is no cooperation protocol with the relevant institution. For example; A work has been started on the land of a district municipality, and there is no consensus text on how the project will be used in the future. What a coincidence, none of the districts where these works are carried out belong to another political party. In other words, each of them are works focused on certain districts. Of course, that's not the state's business. The work of our state, the work of the public, must be bound by an absolute protocol. The problem should not be handed over to the future. In that respect, we, together with the task we have taken, sit down with all the districts and solve the problems at the table, what is the meaning of the protocol, who does it; Which facility will be used by which institution, which defines the functions that the remaining institutions in the region should be prepared with, whether there is a priority demand of women or children; By looking at these, we managed the process with an understanding that evaluates those areas."
“TOGETHER WE WILL SUCCESS”
Saying that we want to experience the great pleasure and great honor of using the money of our people in the most fruitful way and serving our people in the most beautiful way, İmamoğlu continued his words as follows:
"In this context, let me announce in advance that we will prepare another valuable work such as '100 Projects in 100 Days' for the first months of 2023. These campaigns will continue until the mission is over. I am claiming that; No one will be able to see that this much service has been rendered to Istanbul in another period in the next five years. We are so ambitious, we are so in solidarity. By God's grace, we will all get through this together. It is a different honor to serve 16 million Istanbulites with a moral and meritorious management approach that focuses on people and never allows discrimination. May all beauties, all good changes and transformations be with us in 2023, when we will be together in the centennial of our Republic, whose centennial we are going. I hope that; Let us be the rulers who do things worthy of this century. Let us, together with our people, be both worthy of this century and valuable preparers of the next century as a nation. Let's prepare a very special year for our children and young people together."
