He stated that the re-design of the city is based on the transport orbit on the axis of Iranian-Islamic civilization, and said: tens of hectares of land in areas 4, 13, 20, 22, and 19 have been stained, which inside the city of Tehran become a workshop and factory.

Referring to the signing and drafting of the memorandum of cooperation with the ministries and revolutionary institutions, Zakani continued: The municipality has debts and is in debt, but Tehran and other metropolises are treasures, and we set our path in the urban management of the capital in the two directions of participation and productivity. we gave. In this direction, we set our type of management as participatory management, and we consider ourselves as brothers of the ministries, and this brotherhood is a commitment to serving the people.

He went on to say: At the lower levels of cooperation, we are working with the elite and the most effective, and in the way of management, we strongly consider ourselves to be in need of people of knowledge, and we have this understanding in the dimension of “need” and our desire is this. It is to help this understanding and understanding.

Zakani continued: With the establishment of a new legal team in Tehran Municipality, more than 16 thousand billion was returned to the municipality within 10 months. For example, in the 49 participations made by the municipality in the past, the municipality failed in 48 cases, and all these cases are under investigation. So that in only one of them, 4 thousand billion Tomans were created.

He stated: We consider ourselves obliged to be a good colleague and helper for the collections, and today there is no “I” and all “I” are “we”.

Zakani continued: Every week, 17-18 cases are presented in the Article 5 Commission, which cannot be compared to the past. For example, zoning was changed in 17 points so that the damaged areas can be transformed into flowers.

Provision of housing for young academic staff, salary payment system, attention to social sciences and location for the establishment of science and technology park were among the issues that the presidents of the top universities of the country expressed their concerns about.
