(Baonghean.vn) - Mr. Vo Van Hung - Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Cua Lo Town discussed with Nghe An Newspaper about the plan to clear the constructions and kiosks on the East side of Binh Minh Street, to re-plan the sea space, rearrange the existing service areas, in line with the orientation of long-term, sustainable, synchronous, modern, attractive, close to nature and environmentally friendly development.

Reporter:Mr. Vo Van Hung, recently there has been information that this year, the People's Committee of Cua Lo town will clear out the constructions and kiosks on the East side of Binh Minh street. Could you discuss this issue so that readers of Nghe An Newspaper can have clearer information?

Mr. Vo Van Hung:The clearance of kiosks on the east side of Binh Minh Street for re-planning, creating a highlight for the urban landscape and tourism infrastructure for the town is a necessary task for the overall development of Cua Lo town. This is a major and important content that Cua Lo town has cherished for the past few years. Realizing that the time is ripe, this year, the People's Committee of Cua Lo town has drafted a plan to implement the clearance; and recently, the Standing Committee of the Town Party Committee met to discuss and reach an agreement on the policy of clearing the works and kiosks on the east side of Binh Minh Street in 2022.

Reporter:Can you be more specific about the reason and necessity of clearing the constructions and kiosks on the east side of Binh Minh Street?

Mr. Vo Van Hung:Many years ago, in order to develop tourism, generate budget revenue, and create jobs for the people, the town had a policy to allow businesses to temporarily operate for a limited time in the park area east of Binh Minh Street. Regarding the current status, in the planning area there are 209 business kiosks (which have expired since 2020, including some kiosks that have expired since 2015).

However, with the development of society, the number of tourists increases sharply every year, Cua Lo is under a lot of pressure to meet the needs of tourists, from food, accommodation, entertainment services, to enjoying natural landscapes, learning about local culture...

But now, many restaurants and construction agencies are spread out, blocking the view from Binh Minh Street to the sea. The traffic structure is not synchronous, the aesthetics are not high, the construction and distribution are not reasonable. Cua Lo is famous nationwide for its beautiful beaches, but the seascape is not yet aesthetically pleasing, and the environmental hygiene is not good. In addition, the types of entertainment services are still limited, tourists coming to Cua Lo are guaranteed food and accommodation, but there is no space for entertainment, relaxation and exploration, so it has not attracted tourists to stay for a long time.

According to the zoning plan of Cua Lo town wards approved by the Provincial People's Committee, the area east of Binh Minh Street is a green park combined with commercial services. According to the zoning plan orientation, the town is re-planning this area and the planning task has been approved by the Provincial People's Committee.

Therefore, it is necessary to clear and invest in rebuilding the East side of Binh Minh Street, rationally arrange functional areas to effectively exploit land funds, organize landscape architecture spaces and propose suitable investment items to attract many resources in society and preserve, embellish and promote the value of Cua Lo beach in a sustainable and synchronous direction.

Reporter:What is the new planning idea for Cua Lo town's beach after clearing constructions and business kiosks, sir?

Mr. Vo Van Hung:Regarding the detailed planning project for the construction of the Eastern Forest Park of Binh Minh Street, which is being developed by the People's Committee of Cua Lo town to submit to the Provincial People's Committee for approval (based on the planning task approved by the Provincial People's Committee), it will exploit the advantages of the terrain - natural landscape, limit the adverse effects of natural conditions to establish space, direction of construction layout, construction complex and other space-creating factors in the landscape design for the entire design land.

Research on spatial organization of the planning area, arrange existing service areas in accordance with the orientation of long-term sustainable, synchronous, modern, attractive, environmentally friendly development, especially the traffic routes connecting from Binh Minh Street to the sea to ensure open space without obstruction, convenient for people and tourists in accessing the sea space.

Reporter:So sir, what is the specific plan of the People's Committee of Cua Lo Town to implement the clearance?

Mr. Vo Van Hung:Recently, the Standing Committee of the Town Party Committee met to discuss and agree on the clearance policy before October 31, 2022. The Town People's Committee will base on the Conclusion Notice of the Standing Committee of the Town Party Committee to issue a Clearance Plan. This plan will be very specific and detailed in the work to be done as well as the responsibilities of relevant departments, offices and the People's Committees of wards in the clearance work.

It is expected that from September 30, 2022 (the expiration date of the business contracts of the kiosks) to October 30, 2022, the business kiosks will be cleared.

For organizing units such as 382 Resort, VNPT Cua Lo, Nghe An Aquaculture Seed Joint Stock Company..., due to the cost of compensation for site clearance, land arrangement for organizations to relocate..., the Town People's Committee will work with the units to agree on the roadmap and time of clearance.

Reporter:There is a very important issue when the People's Committee of Cua Lo town carries out the clearance of the constructions and kiosks on the East of Binh Minh street, which is what will happen to the jobs of those working at the 209 kiosks? Can you tell us what plans the People's Committee of Cua Lo town has considered so that the workers in this area will not be disrupted in their jobs and income?

Mr. Vo Van Hung:Currently, all kiosks on the East side of Binh Minh Street managed by the town have had their lease contracts expired since 2020. In 2021 and 2022, the town has extended them for each year for business (the extension contract clearly states that when the contract expires, the business households must dismantle and return the premises to the town). From 2020 to now, the Town People's Committee has assigned the People's Committees of the wards to propagate and announce the policy of business expiration and the withdrawal of kiosks to plan and attract investment in the construction of the Forest Park on the East side of Binh Minh Street so that business households can prepare their business plans or change their occupations.

However, in parallel with the plan for clearance, the Town People's Committee has reviewed the land plots in the area west of Binh Minh Street (there are about 400 land plots of households that have been granted land use right certificates but have not been used yet, with favorable locations for food and beverage business) to provide and connect households with the need to rent land for business. At the same time, the Town People's Committee has surveyed and established a plan for investment in the construction of technical infrastructure, lighting, parking lots, and drainage systems on the roads west of Binh Minh Street so that households have favorable conditions for business. In addition, the Town People's Committee is planning 2 food courts west of Binh Minh Street with an area of ​​about 8 hectares to carry out investment procedures for food and beverage areas serving tourism.

Reporter:For a long time, people often think that Cua Lo is only a one-season tourist destination, while many other localities in the country, although not having beautiful beaches like Cua Lo, attract tourists all year round. So what does the People's Committee of Cua Lo town think about this, and what measures has it considered to change?

Mr. Vo Van Hung:The difficulties of Cua Lo tourism have been discussed above. Therefore, along with the implementation of entertainment projects and tourism services (such as entertainment areas, cable cars to Ngu Island, and services outside Ngu Island of Vingroup), the clearance and planning of the East side of Binh Minh Street is also aimed at overcoming the current difficulties of Cua Lo tourism.

Reporter:Thank you for this conversation.
