Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Perm Territory Alexey Demkin left his post after his son spoke about Perm on the Internet. This information confirmed to Kommersant the press service of the regional government and Demkin himself.

“I realize all the responsibility for my son’s statement. Therefore, I considered it correct to write a statement of my own free will. I thank my colleagues from the government for the valuable experience of working together,” the official said.

Earlier on social networks, the son of the deputy chairman, Ilya Demkin, published a video from the island of Bali.

“Some people ask me: “Ilyukha, will you return to Perm?” Guys, this is my Saturday morning,” he said and showed the surrounding nature. “Why the hell do I need Perm?” – continued Demkin.

RBC turned to the press service of the government of the Perm Territory and Alexey Demkin for comment.

Since 2020, Demkin has worked in the Perm administration as first deputy head of the city. From 2021 to 2023, he served as mayor of Perm. After his resignation, he took up the post of deputy chairman of the regional government.

Formerly Mayor of Orsk Vasyl Kozupitsa commented messages about the move of his son Nikolai to the UAE and his purchase of an apartment in Dubai. The head of the city explained that in fact his son left with his family for Saudi Arabia. He moved because he received an invitation to a new job.

“By the way, there is no honey there either, it’s very hot and the climate is very difficult. He works there now. I am proud that my children achieve everything on their own, and I have never hidden this,” added Kozupica.

The richest mayor of the city in the Urals. Representative of the largest construction dynasty in Perm. The most closed mayor from the people. […]

The head of Perm, Alexey Demkin, is from a well-known family in the city, whose representatives in government have been effectively lobbying the interests of the family business since the early 2000s. Due to the fact that top managers of the enterprise and family members occupy positions and chairs in various government bodies, the construction business is developing effectively. In particular, the company manages to acquire inexpensive plots on lands not intended for residential construction, change zoning and build residential buildings on these lands. In addition, the PZSP acquires areas around which rapid development will soon begin (construction of roads, social facilities).

For 2021, Alexey Demkin declared income of 16.4 million rubles, approximately 1.3 million rubles per month. Let us remind you that he has been the head of Perm since March 2021. According to the declaration, the mayor owns a passenger car: a 2019 Land Rover Range Rover, a 2007 BMW K 1200 S motorcycle, four land plots, a total area of ​​7.9 thousand square meters. m, garage – 154.1 sq. m. The area of ​​the house in which the Demkins live is 1 thousand 282 square meters. m. – no one in the administration even has a house like this. It will be easier to imagine the size of such a cottage if you consider that the average private house in Perm is 200–300 square meters. m.

In 2021, when Alexey Demkin became mayor, the number of government contracts for PZSP increased sharply from 900 thousand in 2020 to 124.2 million rubles. The largest contract in 2021 is the completion of the construction of the building for the Perm Regional Court. The previous contractor, Izhevsk Construction Company, was unable to complete the building. The remaining contracts are for the supply of thermal energy and hot water.

A third of the state contracts of the PPSP are contracts with the Department of Housing Relations of the Perm Administration. In recent years, PZSP has been actively selling housing to the municipality for orphans and citizens being resettled from dilapidated and dilapidated housing. Is there a conflict of interest here or not, given that the head of the city and a couple of deputies of the Perm City Duma are directly related to the development company?

One of the main subsidiaries of PZSP is the specialized developer PZSP (SP PZSP), revenue for 2021 is 1.3 billion rubles, which is 50 times more than in 2018.

The circle of managers, co-owners and associates is legally (formally) not very large. The “Proletarian Family” includes literally no more than 10 key persons: three Demkins, two Cherepanovs, Sheptunov, Spiridonov, and until recently Yuzhakov. Let’s tell you who these people are.

The PZSP trade union organization is headed by Valery Sheptunov, also a PZSP worker and ex-deputy of the Perm City Duma, who began his activities on the railway, like Igor Subbotin, the former head of the Dzerzhinsky district, and now the deputy head of Perm. Sheptunov graduated from the Perm College of Railway Transport in 1978 and worked as an engineer at the Perm Design Institute of the Sverdlovsk Railway. Subbotin graduated from the Ural State Transport University in 2000 with a degree in railway transport engineer and builder, and worked on the railway.

The company “Specialized Developer Baranchinskaya, 16” is headed by one of the directors of PZSP, Alexander Cherepanov. The residential complex is located on Tower 2.

Another deputy of the Perm City Duma, Maxim Spiridonov, is the deputy director for social issues of PZSP JSC.

In the spring of 2020, PZSP transferred project activities to a separate company, “PZSP-project”, the company’s revenue for 2021 amounted to 13 million rubles. The design organization was owned by Evgeny Demkin, Sergey Yuzhakov and PZSP. According to SPARK, the company is in the process of liquidation. Sergey Yuzhakov is listed as a co-founder of companies associated with PZSP: PZSP-Project LLC (development of construction projects), Stroykontrakt-Partner LLC and LLC Real Estate Management Service Management Company (registered at the same address as PZSP).

Sergey Yuzhakov has worked at PZSP since 1987, moving from the position of deputy general director of PZSP to the position of deputy head of the Perm administration. From 2008 to 2013, he worked as a deputy, and after his dismissal, he again took a job at PZSP as an executive director, and left the company in 2021. Top managers of PZSP practice such “horizontal” growth: from government to business, from business to government, this allows them to lobby the interests of the parent company most effectively.

What do you remember about Stroykontrakt-Partner? In 2016, it won the right to develop a built-up area of ​​2.85 hectares in blocks No. 754 and 756a (a site near DKZh, bounded by Baramzina, Uchitelskaya, Detskaya and Gremyachinskaya streets). The founders of the company were Yuri Giley (67%) and Sergei Yuzhakov (33%). The mayor’s office sold the plot at the initial (minimum) price – 19 million rubles.

In 2020, PZSP bought a plot from its subsidiary Stroykontrakt-Partner and sold it to another developer, KORTROS-Perm, according to Kommersant-Prikamye experts, for 156–185 million rubles. This is a very promising site, because the Perm authorities plan to develop the Tovarny Dvor and surrounding areas (build a new transport hub, a complex of administrative and public buildings, a multifunctional ice arena, a new road that will pass through Stroiteley Street, Gaidar Square and Stakhanovskaya Street ).

Proletarka – “Demkino”

House No. 19 on the street. Transportnoy became one of the first residential buildings built by the modern PZSP. It began the development of the Demkina company in the Proletarsky microdistrict, which the former head of Perm Dmitry Samoilov jokingly proposed to call the Demkino microdistrict. Most of the company’s employees live in the microdistrict, according to the PZSP website. In total, more than 20 houses of the E-600 series were built, including the residential complexes “Vremena Goda” and “Novaya Proletarka”.

As the press service of the enterprise reported, the last house on Proletarka was commissioned in 2014. Address: st. Transportnaya, 7. This is a seven-story, two-entrance building with 68 apartments. They promised to rent out the house and an extension with a swimming pool, but it didn’t work out right away. Construction of the fitness and fitness center began in 2017 and was completed in 2018, at which time the pool was purchased as municipal property for 195 million rubles.

The contribution of PZSP to the social infrastructure of the microdistrict is exaggerated: the city either bought ready-made buildings, or PZSP built them with budget money, such as the kindergarten on the street. Dokuchaeva, 28a. Let us note that the purchase of buildings for kindergartens was, in principle, carried out without a competition, which raised questions that remained unanswered. From 2014 to 2017, the Perm administration acquired eight properties for 1.5 billion rubles to house municipal preschool educational institutions. One place in the kindergarten cost the budget almost 700 thousand rubles.

But the largest school in Proletarsky was built by Trust No. 14, at the expense of the federal and city budgets. The school was built on a site on the street. Kostycheva, 16, total area – 20 thousand square meters. m.

The proletariat is overloaded. There are only three kindergartens in it and all neighboring microdistricts (Zheleznodorozhny, Akulovsky, Komsomolsky): “Legopolis” (3 buildings), kindergarten No. 407 (3 buildings) and “Constructor of Success” (3 buildings).

When there was a dispute in the Perm City Duma about changing the zoning of the site on the street. Dokuchaeva, 23, representative of the initiative group of residents of the microdistrict Pavel Sannikov said: “The decision to build a house is contrary to the interests of the residents. There is a conflict of interest here, expressed in the fact that, on the one hand, there are the interests of city residents who are against it, and on the other hand, the interests of the PZSP, with which the head of the city is associated. Therefore, I ask you to reject the project”. But they didn’t listen to Sannikov; the zoning change project was accepted. Deputies have long turned a blind eye to conflicts of interest. In the Duma there are three deputies from the PZSP, the head of the city, in the Legislative Assembly of the region – the brother of Alexei Demkin – the general director of the PZSP Evgeny Demkin.

As a result, the project to change the zoning from zone Ts-6 (industrial services, trade, warehousing and small-scale production) to zone Ts-2 (residential construction) was adopted by the City Duma. And along the street. Dokuchaeva, 23 PZSP is already building an apartment building.

Territory of the lubricants and cutting fluids plant – Red Apple

PZSP acquired the property complex of a bankrupt lubricants and cutting fluids plant for 180 million rubles in 2014, having previously bought out the company’s debt to the bank. Two years later, PZSP began lobbying for a change in zoning from an industrial zone to a residential zone. The public opposed it and demanded to see a comprehensive project for the development of the area, which would show not only future housing, but also schools, kindergartens and other social infrastructure, as well as the development of the road network. At public hearings, social activists spoke out against changing the urban planning zone, against an additional 150 thousand square meters. m of housing in this area. Reasons: overloaded kindergartens, schools and eternal traffic jam on the street. Kuibysheva.

In 2022, PZSP announced the start of sales in the new residential complex “Red Apple”. The developer intends to build 40 houses (300 thousand sq. m of housing) – that’s, imagine, two huge blocks; promises that the development of the territory will be comprehensive, a school, kindergartens, a fitness center, pharmacies, cafes, and a shopping center will appear. A pedestrian boulevard with alleys and walking paths, children’s and sports grounds, jogging paths and more has been designed in the area.

Properm.ru requested information from the PZSP about future social infrastructure facilities (is there a project, where will they be located, what is the cost of construction?).

Nearby, on the street. Yablochkova, 3, PZSP is building a 17-story, 6-entrance building of the E-600 series; the building will have 528 apartments. And on the street Soldatova, 30b (next to the territory of the former lubricants and cutting fluids plant) PZSP erected the Samolet residential complex.

There is no land in Perm, but PZSP has it

In the summer of 2022, JSC “PZSP” registered two subsidiaries – “Spetsstroy PZSP – Uinskaya, 55” and “Spetsstroy PZSP – Avtozavodskaya, 5”. The managing director of the companies is Evgeniy Demkin. Companies will develop the corresponding land plots. The site on Avtozavodskaya is the territory of a vehicle fleet, formerly municipal, and then leased by a private carrier. This is an industrial zone, and the Commission on Land Use and Development Rules refused to change the zoning to the former owners. But the former owners had no relation to the Demkin family, so we are waiting for a change in the zoning of this territory and housing development.

Plot on the street Uinskoy, 55 is located next to the Pogoda residential complex, which is being built by Development-Yug. The site is not intended for residential development, which means that the PZSP will develop a new territory planning project, according to which it will be possible to build housing.

In the fall of 2022, PZSP acquired two land plots from the mayor’s office at the initial minimum price: 5 thousand square meters. m on the street Magistralnaya, 98b (for 14 million rubles) and 6.1 thousand sq. m on the street Belozerskaya, 26 (for 4.7 million rubles).

In December 2022, PZSP initiated the process of increasing the height of the residential complex on the street. Magistralnaya from 6 to 8 floors. On this territory, PZSP intends to build three residential 8-story sections (about 7 thousand sq. m of housing). In December 2022, it was decided to send the project to public hearings.

On the street Belozerskaya, 26, the company plans to build about 10 thousand square meters. m of housing, 10-story buildings can be built on the site.

The mayor’s family’s company is actively developing Vyshka-2. Residents of the neighborhood complain about the impossibility of leaving and entering without hours-long traffic jams, and about overcrowding in kindergartens, schools, and clinics. But among the infrastructure at HSE, one school was renovated in 2019, a kindergarten building for 350 children was commissioned in 2021, and they promise to commission a swimming pool in 2023 (it is being built behind schedule). That’s all. Meanwhile, the main thing that residents of the microdistrict need is the development of road infrastructure, but this is not in the plans. But there are plans from developers.

250 thousand sq. m of housing on Tower-2 on the site of the former powder warehouses of the Motovilikha Plants, PZSP has already built. The site was purchased by the UralGeoDevelopment company and resold to PZSP. On the site – 15.3 thousand sq. m. m on the street Tselinnaya – PZSP built the Lazurny residential complex.

The development of the construction site of Tower-2 continues. In the fall of 2022, it became known that the developer created by the parent company would build 160 thousand square meters. m of housing on a plot of 12 hectares (at the intersection of Kuznetskaya and Tselinnaya streets). Seven residential groups with a height of 10–16 floors, designed for 4 thousand residents, are planned. For the comprehensive development of the microdistrict, PZSP took out a loan to purchase land. The construction of housing and a park is planned jointly with the Uran company, the developer was registered in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities in 2019, the company is owned and managed, according to SPARK, by Vladimir Yatsuk. The company’s revenue for 2021 amounted to 43 million rubles, net profit of 22 million rubles.

Vladimir Yatsuk has 10% in the company – a specialized developer “Teacher’s House”, registered on the street. Ekaterininskaya, 177a. The company is owned by Elena Demkina. The PZSP group of companies has already announced the start of sales of a new project – the Teacher’s House clubhouse on Geroev Khasan. The house will be located almost right next to school No. 94 from the Heroes of Khasan side. School No. 6 on Ekaterininskaya Street managed to avoid a similar close proximity, but there was another developer there.

It is wrong to think that PZSP is developing only the outskirts of Perm. No, PZSP built and is building throughout the city. For example, the Turchaninovsky quarter: as they wrote in articles in 2005, “the administration of Perm instructed PZSP to develop the so-called 142nd quarter, located between Pushkin, Lunacharsky, Ostrovsky and Gorky streets.” The address of the residential complex is st. Ostrovsky, 29.

In 2022, a residential complex was commissioned on the PZSP site – a large 16-story building on the street. Ushakova, 65, total area of ​​apartments is about 48 thousand square meters. m.

In January 2023, it became known about PZSP’s plans to develop a site on the street. Tantsorova, 96 in Vodniki microdistrict. The plot of 2.6 hectares is located in an industrial zone. PZSP asks to establish the territorial zone Zh-1 in order to build 16- and 10-story buildings. The total area of ​​the residential complex on this and the neighboring site will be 35.8 thousand square meters. m.

The latter is the development of the territory of the “Chinese Market”. Properm.ru recently wrote about the lack of roads, social infrastructure, “green islands”, and the proximity of the railway.

Demkin gave another plot of land to large families – a field in Gamovo (Perm region) – 149 plots of 6 acres each were distributed among large families in 2021 and 2022. PZSP and the Perm administration signed an agreement in September 2020, under which the company transferred a land plot of more than 12 hectares into municipal ownership free of charge. And in March 2021, Alexey Demkin became the head of Perm. […]

Conflicts

[…] At the end of 2021, the Perm administration sold a land plot on the street. Gorky, 10 to the only bidder – a specialized developer of PZSP, at a starting price of 12.6 million rubles (for the price of one large apartment in the city center). The area of ​​the land plot is 1.3 thousand square meters. meters. Now the Ministry of Property of the Perm Territory is considering an application for a permit to build a house.

According to the general director of PZSP Evgeniy Demkin, the house will qualify, if not for luxury, then for premium class (6-storey building with 34 apartments).

The company immediately announced its plans as a fact. Despite the fact that the land plot on which construction is planned is located within the boundaries of a cultural heritage site of regional significance – the landmark “Provincial Center”. For this territory, in order to preserve its volumetric-spatial characteristics, a restriction on the building height has been established.

The maximum height of possible buildings here is 10.5 m, approximately three floors, so there is no way it will be six floors, as stated. But changing the zone, altitude, and purpose of the site for the company of the family of the head of the city is probably not a problem. At the same time, it turns out that the price of the plot (12.6 million rubles) should change, because it was assumed that it was impossible to build more than three floors here. As the number of floors increases, the attractiveness of the site increases, and accordingly its price.

The same situation arose with other plots, for example on Magistralnaya and Belozerskaya streets: the land was purchased at the price of an apartment, and after changing the requirements for the plots, the cost of the land increased significantly.

The Demkins acquired a plot of land on Gagarin Boulevard in 2007. It was acquired as private land for an individual, Nikolai Demkin, and one might think that it was for the construction of a dacha, since the land was located in the Gagarinets dacha cooperative. And just three years later, Demkin Sr. tried to change the rules of land use and development in order to build a residential complex on the site, but the court refused. And after 10 years – when Alexey Demkin was the chairman of the relevant committee on urban planning of the Perm City Duma, and two more deputies were employees of the PZSP – it was possible to change the rules and zoning. […]

Among other scandalous stories, the case of corruption in IK-32 is known; Alexey Demkin appeared in the case, and tax evasion casewhere the defendant was Demkin, the eldest.

“Kommersant”, 07/24/2008, “High security examination”: As Kommersant learned, during an investigation into a corruption case in Perm correctional colony No. 32, an accounting examination was appointed. The Interdistrict Investigation Department (IDD) for Perm of the Investigative Committee under the Russian Prosecutor’s Office believes that a number of former employees of the maximum security women’s colony spent government funds in the amount of more than 1.9 million rubles. for the construction of their personal apartments. The colony’s leadership has no material claims against its former subordinates and asks that the criminal case be dropped “in connection with the reconciliation of the parties.” […]

The basis was the materials of a scheduled inspection carried out by the RF Federal Penitentiary Service in the Perm Territory, and operational data from the Organized Organized Crime Control Department of the regional Main Internal Affairs Directorate. Inspectors and operatives discovered that in the period from April 2005 to July 2006, in the colony, contrary to the interests of the service, accounting documents were drawn up and accepted for accounting without indicating the true purpose of the payments, and then funds were transferred for the construction of personal apartments for three employees in in the amount of 1.9 million rubles. The government money went to the account of individual entrepreneur Alexei Demkin, the son of the general director of OJSC Perm Silicate Panel Plant (PZSP) Nikolai Demkin. As a result, the co-workers also became neighbors, having purchased apartments with an additional payment in the new building of PZSP OJSC on Transportnaya Street in the Proletarsky microdistrict. — Insert K.ru

Other regions

[…] JSC “PZSP” became the owner of a large plot of land for development in Izhevsk – 25 hectares of land near the large Lenta and Metro stores. The project is not the first; the Perm company has already commissioned one residential complex in Izhevsk. In 2020, the company commissioned the New Park residential complex in Izhevsk, and before that it supplied building materials for the construction of the Victoria Park residential complex.

[…] Alexey Demkin ran a business in the Czech Republic for a long time, where he owned two companies specializing in real estate rental, registered in 2006–2008: Grasiela Trading SR O and Grasiela Trading Praha SR According to various media reports, he went out of business.

Connections with Plotnikov

Back in 2015, the secretary of the Perm regional branch of the United Russia (*aggressor country) party, Nikolai Demkin, offered the mandate of a deputy of the Legislative Assembly to the general director of PAIZHK, deputy of the Perm City Duma Dmitry Malyutin, a man of Vladimir Plotnikov, an authoritative businessman and now a deputy of the Perm City Duma.

For some time there were rumors that Malyutin could take the place of the head of Perm, but this would be too scandalous, so in 2021 Malyutin became the chairman of the Perm City Duma, Alexey Demkin the head of Perm, and Vladimir Plotnikov remained a “shadow cardinal”, as before. It is not known about any close business interests of Vladimir Plotnikov and the family of Alexei Demkin. Most likely, they have a long-standing “non-aggression pact.” The construction lobby in the Perm City Duma is strong, but no one puts a spoke in the wheels of deputies from developers when changing zoning, heights and other urban planning changes to please certain interests. […]
