People of the Community

The head of the Komarno Territorial Community – Ihor Cherevychnyk – was elected during the snap election held in October 2021 and is presently the mayor.A nongovernmental organization “Revival of the Village of Hrimne” works in the village of Hrimne, which is an organization covering the current news and problems of the Hrimne starosta-headed district.

Implemented projects:

Since there is currently no fire station in the community, a volunteer fire brigade consisting of 4 people (employees of the hospital and the town council) was formed in April 2023. There are two fire engines and all the necessary equipment so that the guys could save people’s lives and buildings in time.In 2023, the implementation of a strategic project for the community began – the reconstruction of the Monastyrets-Poliana bridge, which was destroyed back in 2008. The construction of the new bridge started back in the 2000s, but it was suspended. Thanks to the efforts of the head of the community together with the employees of the town council, government funds were obtained for the restoration of the bridge, which is planned to be completed by the end of 2023.Energy efficiency is one of the priority areas of the community, which is why some institutions are switching to alternative energy sources. The municipal hospital has already started to use a solid fuel boiler, and now the same project is being implemented in the Blooming Cherry kindergarten in the village of Peremozhne.
