KOV 2017/LOCAL ELECTIONS 2017

How we plan to improve the Centre City 




  • Tallinn should fix the main street from Vabaduse Väljak up to Hobujaam. Mainly the streets for pedestrians and public transport use should unite the renovated Tammsaare Park with the Old Town. 
  • We will double the budget to keep the Centre City in good order.
  • Will we build an extension for Westholm Gymnassium.
  • We will build a sports hall for the French Lyceum.
  • We will build an additional hall for RealKool
  • We will maintain the Skoone bastion and its surrounding areas and open an area for pedestrians and cyclists.  In the future there will be a place for cafes play areas and free time meeting places.
  • Together with the private sector, we will repair the Centre Market.
  • We will clean up Snell Pond and repair Toompark and Tompea slopes.
  • We will ensure that the heart of the city is secure.
  • We will establish social centre branch offices.
  • We will work hard to eliminate dilapidated buildings. 
  • We will invest in street, repair roads and streets that are currently in a bad way.
  • We will set up a monument to the first Tallinn city mayor, Voldemar Lender in the Centre City. 
  • We will establish in the Centre City and North Tallinn a connected and thorough bicycle road.
  • We will repair the city's environment, placing new benches and trash cans and maintaining the park. 
  • We will give special attention to preserving the environment and the views of Tallinn Old Town. 
  • We will open up the city to the sea and the sea areas to the people. We will do this by building a beautiful  beach promenade from Pirita to Haabersti. 


  • Tallinn saab Pärnu maanteele uue Peatänava Vabaduse väljakust kuni Hobujaamani. Peamiselt jalakäijatele ja ühistranspordile mõeldud tänav ühendab renoveeritud Tammsaare pargi Vanalinnaga
  • Tõstame linnaosa heakorra eelarve kahekordseks

  • Ehitame Prantsuse Lütseumile võimla.
  •  Ehitame Tallinna Reaalkoolile lisahoone.
  •  Korrastame Skoone bastioni ja selle lähiümbruse ning avame ala jalakäijatele ja jalgratturitele. Sellest saab tulevikus kohvikute ja mänguväljakutega vaba aja veetmise koht. • Koostöös erasektoriga korrastame Keskturu.
  • Puhastame Snelli tiigi ja korrastame Toompargi ja Toompea nõlvad.

  • Pöörame erilist tähelepanu Tallinna Vanalinna kaitsele ning miljööväärtuslike alade terviklikkuse säilimisele.
  • Avame linna merele. Avatud mere äär inimestele. Selleks ehitame Euroopa kõige kaunima rannapromenaadi Piritalt Haaberstini.

Tallinn's unlikely twin By Abdul Turay First published November 2008 The idea behind twinning is that two vaguely similar cities exchange cultural links for their mutual benefit. Warsaw is twinned with Coventry – both cities were flattened by the Luftwaffe, after all. Tartu, the famous Estonian university town, is twined with Uppsala which is the home to the oldest university in Scandinavia. And Tallinn… Tallinn is twinned with Dartford. Come again, Dartford! For those of you who don’t know Britain well, Dartford is a dull dormitory suburb on the back end of London. Dartford is in the county of Kent, the so-called “garden of England”. Technically it is both a town and a borough , but it is not a city since it doesn’t have a Royal charter to call itself that. Say the word “Dartford” to most Britons, and they will answer back “tunnel”. The Dartford crossing is both a tunnel and a bridge. It links up Kent with London both above and below the river Thames. When City Paper called up the

Black men, Estonian women: the truth By Abdul Turay Published Postimees 11 November 2009 Well that got your attention; the headline I mean. Any story on this subject, the technical term is miscegenation, is bound to get punters. The yellow media, women's magazines and reality TV shows are obsessed with the subject. Not a month goes by without some publication writing about it. Anne and Style, for example, recently ran a long feature about mixed couples. Most of these stories are muddle-headed and wrong. There's paranoia in this country that there is an army of dark-skinned men form Turkey, the tropics, some place south, who are going to make off with the nation's women. It's never going to happen. I'll explain why in a minute. Seriously, I think there are more important things to think about and worry about. I worry about feeding my family. I worry about other people being able to feed their families, so I write about politics and economics. But the p

A note for New Tallinners Russian Translation below.  Dear New Tallinners Whether you are here for work or study; welcome to Tallinn, I hope that you have a successful, productive and fun time in our beautiful city. Tallinn has come a long way in the last 20 years. It is hard to believe this city was once grey and Soviet. It can be bewildering at times being in a new city in a new country, when all the information you need is in another language. Did you know that you can help to make it better? Did you know you have access to legal services? What do you know about the sports, leisure and cultural activities going on in Tallinn? The local elections for the City council take place this October 15. Did you know that you can vote?   Everybody registered to live in Tallinn can vote? Voting will give you say in how the city is run? It gives you power? I hope to serve you as your local candidate. How someone like me ended up in Estonian politics, is too long a story to g
