According to the correspondent IA REGNUM, the building of the regional government was crowded. This is understandable - for Novosibirsk, representing both power structures and society, Travnikov, who previously headed Vologda, is not just a new representative of the regional authorities, but also a complete stranger.

Therefore, members of the regional government, members of the Federation Council representing the region, deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, the Legislative Assembly, heads of territorial divisions of federal executive bodies, heads of municipal districts and urban districts, heads of scientific and public organizations, journalists gathered to look at it.

Andrey Travnikov, who will head the region until at least September 2018, was introduced by the Plenipotentiary of the President of the Russian Federation in the Siberian Federal District Sergei Menyailo.

It was not without traditional laudatory words addressed to the region and requests to the new interim for consolidation.

“We need consolidation, because it is by common forces that we can organize constructive work on the development of the region” - said Menyailo.

And Andrei Travnikov himself admitted that the president had set him the task of working for the benefit of all the inhabitants of the region, and he would make every effort to fulfill this task. He also admitted that he was ready for this kind of appointment, but the appointment to the Novosibirsk region was a surprise for him.

And who left (of his own free will) the post of governor Vladimir Gorodetsky noted that "the personnel decisions made by the president are one of the elements of the renewal."

“The task is to achieve the maximum result in the development of the regional economy with the help of such updates,” he said.

After the official part, in communication with the media, Travnikov spoke about possible personnel changes in the region.

“Undoubtedly, over time they will appear, any leader selects a team for himself, but I assure you that there will be no hasty decisions, and there will be no replacement of people for the sake of replacement” , he emphasized.

Deputy Chairman of the "Party of Dela" in Novosibirsk, President of the Foundation for the Preservation of the "House with a Clock" Oleg Viktorovich, who, although he was not invited to the official presentation of the acting head, nevertheless visited it, shared with IA REGNUM their impressions of today's meeting with Andrey Travnikov.

“The meeting was by invitation only. As a representative of the public of Novosibirsk, at first they refused to let me into the hall. Neither the Minister of Regional Policy, nor Boltenko and Znatkov helped, in the old fashioned way, who successfully joked that they themselves had "bird rights, and they themselves could be driven away." There was excitement. Light excitement. It was evident how worried Gorodetsky was, who thanked and called for renewal, although in his speech he slipped: “Let's see how it turns out ?!”. Apparently, the outgoing governor had in mind the difficult budget of the region and interaction with the federal center. The speech of the new head of the region, Andrey Alexandrovich, was short, but capacious in content. Everyone was called for cooperation for the benefit of the region, for a peaceful dialogue, correctly noting that fighting is expensive and unproductive. In addition, he called the plenipotentiary in Siberia, who held a meeting on the presentation of Travnikov. Newly arrived and.about. The meeting greeted the governor of the Novosibirsk Region with polite claps, without enthusiasm, and Gorodetsky was greeted with a short but friendly ovation, the years of joint work were not in vain, the meeting experienced this moment with excitement " Viktorovich noted.

The Novosibirsk activist noted that he nevertheless managed to get acquainted with Andrey Travnikov and welcome him to the Novosibirsk land.

“The first impression of the acting the governor is very good. It can be seen that the person is open to dialogue, public, modest, able and willing to communicate, formulates well. benevolent. We will see the rest in the process, life will show. Whatever one may say, but with the departure of Gorodetsky, the era disappears, to which I have a very difficult and negative attitude, but you can’t throw words out of a song ... " Viktorovich emphasized.

D Member of the Legislative Assembly of the Novosibirsk Region Vadim Ageenko believes that it is quite difficult to evaluate a person by one performance.

“It will be necessary, of course, to look at the first steps of the acting. governor. Including the first personnel decisions. According to our law, the powers of deputies, members of the government and ministers end with the powers of the chairman of the government, who was Vladimir Gorodetsky. I think we will see the first appointments this week. Then we will begin to understand what kind of personnel policy the new acting director will have. governor,"noted in a conversation with a correspondent IA REGNUM Ageenko.

As for the existing regional problems, the regional parliamentarian emphasized that “it's good that the “waste concession problem” was immediately noted.

Election day in the Novosibirsk region turned out to be truly festive. Many residents shared this impression. This was noted by the head of the region, having come to the site in the morning.

Festive mood, moderate decoration of the site, pies with an amazing smell. The mood of a real holiday, - praised Andrey Travnikov organizing voting.

Acting Governor filled out a ballot at Lyceum No. 12 on Serebrennikovskaya Street. But not only in the center of the regional capital, but also on the outskirts, the sites were adequately prepared. Signs, posters with information about all the candidates, attentive staff: members of the election commissions received special training. And many sites have prepared a cultural program for the guests: concerts, master classes, competitions.

The holiday was also in the very center of Novosibirsk - on the site in front of the Opera and Ballet Theatre. There was a concert dedicated to the annexation of Crimea to Russia. Ensembles "Chaldons", "Slavs", "Siberian Patterns" performed ... Other groups also participated in the concert, and in the evening Alexander Marshal took the stage.

Before appearing before the public, the musician drove to the polling station. He took care in advance to vote in Novosibirsk.

Local residents, however, went to the polling stations mainly at lunchtime: from noon to 3 pm, the flow of voters was the most intense. Those who were sick or could not come to the site due to old age were visited with urns at home. Members of the commissions issued ballots to people and received them in a sealed box. As a result, the turnout in the region reached 60%.

The region supported the incumbent president

The turnout of voters in the Novosibirsk region in the elections of the President of the Russian Federation was 60.41%, 1,304,738 voters voted.

Vladimir Putin has unconditional leadership - 71% of Novosibirsk citizens who came to the polls voted for him. The second place was taken by Pavel Grudinin, gaining 16%, the third position was taken by Vladimir Zhirinovsky - 7%. The voting results are close to the national average.

This is a weighty confirmation of the correctness of both the decisions taken by the head of state at the federal level, and those initiatives that were expressed by Vladimir Putin in support of the Novosibirsk Region, - Andrey Travnikov noted.

The security was impeccable.

The acting governor praised the organization of the elections and announced that they were completely legitimate in the region: no serious violations were recorded. This was confirmed by Olga Blago, chairman of the Electoral Commission of the Novosibirsk Region.

Election day went fairly smoothly. It should be noted the high professionalism of our law enforcement agencies, which ensured order at the polling stations, - Olga Anatolyevna thanked the policemen. - Not a single complaint that would have affected the voting results was recorded.

​Acting Governor of the Novosibirsk Region Andrey Travnikov spoke about the prospects that are opening up and the results achieved during recent visits to our region by federal ministers and the President of the Russian Federation.

The Novosibirsk region has become the center of attention of federal officials after the decision of the President of the Russian Federation to appoint Acting Governor Andrei Travnikov. Under no governor before, there has been such a dense series of visits of federal officials to our region as since the beginning of 2018. Minister of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation Maxim Topilin, Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation Oleg Fomichev, Minister of Telecom and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation Nikolai Nikiforov, Minister of Health of the Russian Federation Veronika Skvortsova visited the Novosibirsk Region. And on February 8, 2018, even Russian President Vladimir Putin came to Novosibirsk on a working visit.

At a recent meeting with the media, journalists asked Andrei Travnikov to give examples of specific decisions that have already been made or will be made after the visits of federal officials. “Federal ministers are not people with bags of money who travel around the regions and distribute federal budget funds left and right. To approach their visits in this way – you have arrived, come on, help us – it would be wrong,” the acting governor said. If I arrived in some territory, in a municipal district, and I would be met with such statements, I would probably be wary - but is everything all right here? Are people here engaged in development or are they just waiting for financial support from above?"

Andrey Travnikov noted that it is more correct to approach the visits of leaders, primarily federal ones, based on the position of what has already been really done for the development of our region or, for example, for the development of Novosibirsk: "We have clear programs, we have results. And if the federal center had helped us, we could have achieved more and faster.With this approach, with such arguments, of course, we have a high chance of getting support, of interest to the federal ministries, because they are primarily interested in finding interesting new practices. They are responsible not only for the Novosibirsk region, they are responsible for the development of industries throughout the Russian Federation. And if they see interesting, breakthrough projects on our territory, they will not only support us. We will not be interested in simple requests or even demands - this is exactly."

Andrey Travnikov also gave his assessment of the results that were achieved as a result of meetings with federal leaders in the region.

Visit of Russian President Vladimir Putin

"In his message, the President absolutely clearly formulated the decision regarding the MegaScience Project - the construction of a synchrotron radiation source," Andrey Travnikov recalled. "This decision, in fact, has been made. This is not a project of a separate branch of science (nuclear physics) - it is aimed at developing the economy The source of synchrotron radiation is a project whose services will be used by a very wide range of scientific institutions, and not only in the Novosibirsk region, but also in the entire Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences... There is already a very high demand for the services of this unit from industrial companies in Russia, some of them are now forced receive these services abroad. In the region of Siberia and South-East Asia, there are still not enough such units, and we expect the export of these services to far abroad countries. Therefore, this is a very important decision. And this will be a serious impetus for the development of science and economy in our region ".

The second decision, which was supported by the President of the Russian Federation, was the development of a model for the development of the Novosibirsk Scientific Center.

“We are working on this together with colleagues from the SB RAS and the FASO department, serious work is underway to prepare a plan for the development of the Novosibirsk Scientific Center - Akademgorodok - within the new boundaries with the participation of Krasnoobsk, Berdsk, Koltsovo and the adjacent territories of the Novosibirsk region," said the head of the region.

Visit of the Minister of Health of the Russian Federation

Minister of Health of the Russian Federation Veronika Igorevna Skvortsova supported the inclusion of the application of the Novosibirsk Region in the federal investment program for the completion of the perinatal center.

“She made a statement about this during a press approach and during a meeting with the medical community,” Andrei Travnikov recalled. “She also supports the need to build an oncological center in Novosibirsk, but here the first step is ours. We need to develop a concept, design and "estimate documentation. This is the first condition after which it is possible to somehow discuss the attraction of federal funds. Our task is to begin the development of design estimates in the second half of 2018."

Minister of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation

Minister Maxim Topilin announced the first figures of the financial tranche that the Novosibirsk Region will receive as support for the implementation of the initiative to bring the minimum subsistence level into line with the minimum wage.

“Let me remind you that the minimum wage and the minimum subsistence level should be equal from May 1, 2018, at the initiative of the President of the Russian Federation, the regions will receive assistance from the federal budget,” the acting governor said.

Minister of Telecom and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation

As a result of the visit of the Minister of Telecom and Communications of the Russian Federation Nikolai Nikiforov, the region received confirmation that the necessary funds are provided for the implementation of the federal project - "Eliminating the digital divide for settlements over 250 people."

Also, for the period of 2018-2019, the budget of the Russian Federation provides funds for a regional project jointly with Rostelecom (project 500+), in the financial plan of which the allocation of funds is also planned.

“As you remember, we asked for the development of the network, repair and reconstruction of post offices, Post Bank branches. And the Minister of Communications also confirmed that these funds were planned in the Russian Post budget,” Andrey Travnikov said.

The Acting Governor also spoke about a specific decision to include the region in a pilot project for the development of scientific clusters, which was made following a visit to the Novosibirsk Region by Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation Oleg Fomichev.

“I would like to once again recall the thesis that any decision of a federal leader, even of the highest level, that is taken during a visit and on which appropriate instructions and instructions are given, is not yet a 100% guarantee that the funds have already gone,” Andrey Travnikov noted. "In order to include our projects in government programs, the region, municipalities need to prepare a large number of documents, argue, develop design and estimate documents. If we do not do this, then all the initiatives of federal officials will remain in the archives."

The outgoing 2018, despite the difficulties, turned out to be quite successful for the Novosibirsk Region. At the final press conference, Governor Andrey Travnikov said that the region is ahead of the Russian average in terms of most of the main indicators of socio-economic development.

At a meeting of the Presidium of the SB RAS, the first results of the visit of the President of Russia to Novosibirsk were summed up

​At a regular meeting of the Presidium of the SB RAS, the first results of the visit of the President of Russia to the Novosibirsk Scientific Center were summed up.

Acting Governor of Novosibirsk Andrey Travnikov discussed in Moscow with Alexei Kudrin, Chairman of the Board of the Center for Strategic Research, the formation of a development strategy for the region, the press service of the regional government reports.

On October 6, the presidential website Kremlin.ru announced a change in the head of the executive branch in the Novosibirsk region. The President of the Russian Federation accepted the resignation of Vladimir Gorodetsky at his own request and signed the Decree "On the early termination of the powers of the Governor of the Novosibirsk Region".

Decree text:

In connection with the statement of the Governor of the Novosibirsk Region Gorodetsky V.F. on the early termination of powers and in accordance with subparagraph "c" of paragraph 1 and subparagraph "a" of paragraph 9 of Article 19 of the Federal Law of October 6, 1999 No. 184-FZ "On General principles of organization of legislative (representative) and executive bodies of state power of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation” I decide:

1. To accept the resignation of the Governor of the Novosibirsk Region, Gorodetsky V.F. at will.

2. Appoint Andrey Aleksandrovich Travnikov as the acting Governor of the Novosibirsk Region until the person elected as the Governor of the Novosibirsk Region takes office.

3. This Decree comes into force from the date of its signing.

Andrey Travnikov has made a rapid career breakthrough over the past seven years: from General Director of Elektroremont LLC in 2010 to Deputy Plenipotentiary Representative of the Russian Federation in the Northwestern Federal District in 2016. At the end of the same year, at a session of the Vologda City Duma, the deputies unanimously elected him head of the administration of the regional center.

According to the regulations of the city duma, the decision to appoint the mayor of the city was taken by open vote. To win, you need to get more than half of the parliamentary votes. Andrei Travnikov was unanimously supported by the deputies. The regional governor Oleg Kuvshinnikov said that the election of the mayor of Vologda is an important political event in the history of the city. Among the priorities of the city authorities is the adoption of a balanced budget, the fulfillment of all social obligations, as well as the adoption of measures for the further development of the economy, small and medium-sized businesses.

Andrey Travnikov was born on February 1, 1971 in the city of Cherepovets, Vologda Region. In 1998 he graduated from Cherepovets State University with a degree in Electric Drive and Automation. In 2014, he completed professional retraining under the program for training the highest level of the managerial personnel reserve at the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration under the President of the Russian Federation in 2014.

“Vologda residents are extremely cautious about appointees from the neighboring city of Cherepovets, where, in fact, Andrey Alexandrovich is from. For Vologda residents, it was originally a stranger. However, the fact that before that he worked as a deputy governor, deputy plenipotentiary representative of the President of the Russian Federation in the Northwestern Federal District, cannot be discounted - the new head of the city quickly joined the work. He immediately “got it” - snowfalls, with a shortage of snow-removing equipment, the celebration of the New Year, Victory Day, City Day - but, I believe that Andrei Aleksandrovich generally coped with all this and much more. Despite the fact that many ill-wishers predicted for him a confrontation with the team of the previous mayor, and, as a result, significant personnel changes, Travnikov did not “chop off the shoulder” and was able to create a good team of deputies», - Anton Kholodov, deputy of the Legislative Assembly of the Vologda Region, comments on your VKontakte page.

Political scientists noted that in 2017, Andrei Travnikov, as mayor of Vologda, consistently increased his political weight. In the summer of 2017, IA Regnum published a rating of mayors of Russian cities for June-July. Andrei Travnikov took 36th place in it. Earlier, in the Regnum rating for April-May, Travnikov ranked 39th, and according to the results of the first quarter, he was in 45th place.

Political strategist Anton Kholodov characterizes Travnikov's management style as "smooth": "He just does his job. Without scandals, upheavals and loud words about their activities "...

An electrical engineer by education, Andrey Travnikov, Acting Governor of the Novosibirsk Region, was remembered in Vologda for the fact that in a year he “repaid all the negativity”, but after that he was sent to the Siberians, “full of self-esteem.” Regional deputies at first were discouraged by the unexpected choice of the president, but on October 9 they will be able to get to know him personally.

Vladimir Gorodetsky's successor, who resigned of his own free will, will fly to Novosibirsk on October 9 and will be introduced to members of the government, deputies and heads of municipalities on the same day. Taiga.info provides for acquaintance the biography of the acting governor, opinions about him from Novosibirsk and Vologda, as well as his own statements.

Andrey Travnikov was born on February 1, 1971 in the city of Cherepovets. He graduated from the Cherepovets Metallurgical College in 1990 and then from Cherepovets State University with a degree in Electric Drive and Automation. From 1992 to 2006, he worked in various positions at the Cherepovets Metallurgical Plant (OJSC "Severstal"), then four years - CEO of LLC "Electrical Repair".

In 2010, Travnikov began his career in the municipal and public service. In 2010-2012 - First Deputy Mayor of Cherepovets Oleg Kuvshinnikov, then his first deputy as governor, from 2014 to 2016 - Deputy Plenipotentiary Representative of the President of the Russian Federation in Northwestern federal district, since 2016 - the head of Vologda. On October 6, Vladimir Putin appointed him acting governor of the Novosibirsk Region, Vladimir Gorodetsky, "at his own request".

“Honestly, I am discouraged. I could have expected anything, but I did not imagine that someone from Vologda would be delegated. Frankly, I’ll say that, to some extent, I’m even going with my thoughts, because someone came to us in the center of Siberia from that region. The most interesting thing is that, remembering what was the news and talk about the positive experience in management and so on, to be honest, I don’t remember that somewhere in the news they talked about some kind of positive experience in the Vologda Oblast and Vologda, in particular » .

“This [appointment of Travnikov] is an unexpected action. In Novosibirsk, completely different candidates were mentioned and discussed - either from Novosibirsk, from Moscow, but with Novosibirsk origin. The last weeks have been like a madhouse: a bunch of versions, forecasts, names. And the last two are just swings. Either one is “appointed”, then “another”. And finally, the incredible political soap opera that we have never seen in our city has ended. The first question I had, as probably everyone else, was who? It was a very big surprise from this choice. Because if the acting had shoulder straps lieutenant general Of course, no one would be surprised by this.

If I were acting, I would try to understand what are the most resonant problems in the Novosibirsk region and why they force people to take to the streets to protest, and then figure out what to do about it. Probably in the first days he will meet with the legislature, the mayor's office of Novosibirsk, evaluate socio-economic the situation in the region in order to make other decisions later, including personnel ones.

“Andrey Alexandrovich is a calm and balanced leader. All the scandalous things that were under his predecessor - the project of paid parking, problems with public transport - he decided carefully, carefully and carefully. For a year, he leveled the negative that was seething in the city.

“My colleagues and I are discussing options for how this [appointment] happened. The very first - Travnikov at one time got into the federal personnel reserve when he worked in the embassy. Logically, Severstal, [its owner Aleksey] Mordashov, has a fairly close relationship with the Kovalchuk family. And this is one of the most influential circles in the academic environment, including those with a fairly high level of influence on the Russian Academy of Sciences. The head of the FANO [Mikhail] Kotyukov is currently considered to be associated with the Kovalchuk group. There were persistent rumors that he was considered as the main candidate for Novosibirsk governors. Let's see how close this version is to reality, how attentive Travnikov will be to the problems of Akademgorodok.

The political scientist thinks that it will be "very difficult" for the acting governor in an unfamiliar region. “I have repeatedly been to Novosibirsk, here the level of local patriotism is very high, plus there is also the topic of the struggle for the role of the capital of Siberia with Krasnoyarsk. And the arrival of a Varangian not from Siberia at all is a challenge. I think that Travnikov will have a very difficult time.

“I knew all the governors and mayors of Novosibirsk, and I can say that they were major political figures. To become the governor of the Novosibirsk region is to become on a par with Luzhkov, Sobyanin, Matvienko, Shaimiev, Tuleev. This means becoming a political heavyweight in the full sense of the word. Because governors of this level are deeply educated people who have vast experience in managing large industrial teams and enterprises.

Siberians are a very peculiar people. A people full of self-esteem, pride, and I would even say snobbery. They are absolutely sure of their superiority and unusually politically active. This explains the political discord that exists in the region today.

Andrei Alexandrovich [Travnikov] will have a hard time there. Given the fact that in a year to go to direct elections, he will have to take over, assert himself and win. And there is very little time left for that. Let's hope that the president, having entrusted this post to a Vologda resident, will not leave him, but will help and support him in difficult times.

There are people who literally live in an airplane. And today, the leader often chooses not a place where it is interesting to live, but where it is interesting to work. So I made my decision on the same principle. Moreover, with the current development of transport and communications, the line between cities is blurring. In the week we are all immersed in work, there is no free time left, and on weekends or on vacation you can go to St. Petersburg, to Moscow - anywhere.
