RESOLUTION

Eighteenth Arbitration Court of Appeal composed of:

presiding judge Malysheva I.A.,

judges Ivanova N.A., Skobelkina A.P.,

when maintaining the protocol of the court session by the secretary of the court session Shelontseva T.V.,

considered in open court the appeal of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan against the decision of the Arbitration Court of the Republic of Bashkortostan dated May 20, 2016 in case No. А07-1089/2016 (Judge Iskandarov U.S.).

Representatives of the following took part in the hearing:

applicant - municipal budget institution Specialized Service Plant of the Urban District of Ufa: Grazhdankina N.V. (passport, power of attorney No. 02-03/375 dated May 25, 2016); Akhmetov M. T. (passport, power of attorney dated 05/12/2016);

the person concerned - the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan - Zakharova E.A. (passport, power of attorney dated February 12, 2016).

In the order of Part 3 of Art. Arbitration Procedure Code Russian Federation as part of the court replaced judges Boyarshinova E.The. and Kuznetsova Yew.A., absent for good reason, on judges Ivanova H.A. and Skobelkin A.P. (Determination of the Deputy Chairman of the Eighteenth Arbitration Court of Appeal dated August 17, 2016), after which the consideration of the appeal was started from the very beginning.

The Municipal Budgetary Institution Specialized Service Plant of the Ufa City District (hereinafter referred to as the MBU "Specialized Service Plant of the Ufa City District", MBU KSO, institution, applicant) filed a petition with the Arbitration Court of the Republic of Bashkortostan with a statement to the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Ufimsky Municipal District district of the Republic of Bashkortostan (hereinafter referred to as the Administration, the person concerned) to invalidate the refusal, expressed in letter No. 1813 of December 11, 2015, to obtain permission to cut trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701 :229 and the obligation to eliminate violations by issuing a permit for felling trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery, located on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, according to the location scheme (taking into account the clarification of the stated requirements, adopted by the court of first instance in according to Article Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation).

By the decision of the Arbitration Court of the Republic of Bashkortostan dated May 20, 2016 (the operative part was announced on May 16, 2016), the stated requirements were satisfied. The refusal of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district of the Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan, expressed in letter No. 1813 dated 12/11/2015, to obtain permission to cut trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701 was declared illegal: 229. The administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district of the Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan was ordered by the court to eliminate the violation committed by issuing a permit for felling trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery, on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, according to the layout.

The administration (hereinafter also referred to as the appellant, appellant) did not agree with said decision, considers that the court made incorrect conclusions when examining the evidence in the case and did not take into account all the circumstances that are important for the correct resolution of the case.

According to the Administration, the conclusion of the court of first instance that the letter No. 1813 of December 11, 2015 contained no reasons for refusing to cut down and the provisions of the current legislation, on the basis of which the institution was denied cutting down trees, contradicts the actual circumstances of the case and the content of the letter in which these circumstances are indicated.

The administration points to the absence of an indication of the cadastral number in the application of the company for the issuance of a permit for felling and in the annex to it land plot where trees will be cut down.

The appellant argues that letter no. 1813 of 12/11/2015 is not a refusal to issue a logging permit green spaces, but is advisory in nature, since it, with references to regulatory legal acts, explains the need to submit documents in accordance with clauses 2.1., 2.4. “Regulations on the procedure for cutting green spaces in the territory of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District Ufimsky District of the Republic of Bashkortostan”, approved by the decision of the Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District Ufimsky District No. 78 dated March 27, 2012, which, in the opinion of the Administration, cannot be considered a refusal.

The administration points out that the company’s application for issuing a permit to cut down does not contain information about the number and name of trees to be cut down, indicating their condition, trunk diameter, the reason for cutting down and the scheme of the land plot to the nearest buildings or other landmarks with green spaces to be cut down, as well as for the absence in the annex to the application of the documents provided for in clauses 2.1., 2.4. the aforementioned regulation. This circumstance, according to the position of the Administration, indicates that the application submitted by the company did not initially comply with the provisions of the current legislation.

The appellant points out that the trees and shrubs requested for felling are a forest protection belt, and therefore the provisions regulating actions in relation to the forest fund should be applied to it. Referring to the letter of the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Bashkortostan l 01.01.2016 No. 02/3, the Administration indicates that the green plantations requested for felling belong to the lands of the state forest fund and are located on the land plot with the cadastral number 02:47:110701:215 ( block No. 2 of the Krasnoyarsk forestry), in connection with which their felling is not possible and it is impossible to consider the issue of felling without involving the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Bashkortostan in the case. In this regard, the appellant, according to him, during the consideration of the dispute in the court of first instance, filed a petition to involve the said Ministry in the case as a third party, not making independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute, which was not considered by the court of first instance, despite documents submitted to the case confirming that the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Bashkortostan has documented claims to a land plot to be cut down on the grounds that it was illegally provided for a cemetery. In this regard, the Administration believes that the execution of the court decision will entail the destruction of the state forest fund and will directly affect the rights and legitimate interests of the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Bashkortostan.

In addition, the appellant refers to the binding nature of the decision of the environmental commission, drawn up by protocol No. 2 of December 10, 2015, which was the basis of the contested letter, and to the lack of the Administration's right to issue permits for felling trees in the presence of such a conclusion.

In addition, taking into account the fact that the company's statement contained an indication of the need to prepare new places for burial, the Administration claims that, in accordance with Art. 16, 17 of the Federal Law of January 12, 1996 No. 8-FZ “On Burial and Funeral Business” and clauses 1.1., 1.2. SanPiN 2.1.2882-11 "Hygienic requirements for the placement, arrangement and maintenance of cemeteries, buildings and structures for funeral purposes" the applicant had to submit a positive conclusion of the environmental and sanitary-hygienic examination, the absence of which, in the opinion of the appellant, excludes the applicant from being granted the right to cut down trees for the indicated purposes. In the development of this argument, the appellant cites references to documents submitted to confirm the deterioration of the environmental situation in the case.

The administration also considers unfounded the conclusion of the court that the disputed letter does not contain references to the provision of an incomplete set of documents, since this conclusion contradicts the content of the disputed letter.

On this basis, the Administration asks to cancel the court decision with the adoption of a new judicial act refusing to satisfy the stated requirement.

The Municipal Budgetary Institution "Combine of Specialized Services of the Urban District of Ufa" submitted written objections to the arguments of the appeal, considers the court's decision lawful and justified, not subject to cancellation.

At the hearing, the persons participating in the case supported the arguments set forth in the appeal and objections to it.

The administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district of the Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan submitted petitions to involve the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Bashkortostan as a third party that does not file independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute, as well as to conduct an environmental impact assessment.

The appropriate written objections were submitted to these petitions of the MBU CSR.

The petition of the appellant to involve the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Bashkortostan as a third party, not declaring independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute, was considered by the court of appeal and rejected, based on the following:

Based on the meaning and content of part 1 of the article of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the basis for the entry into the process of a third party who does not declare independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute is a legal situation in which a judicial act in the case under consideration may affect his rights or obligations in relation to to one of the sides. In other words, at this person there are substantive legal relations with a party to the case, which may be affected by a judicial act in the case under consideration in the future (submission of a recourse claim, etc.).

The purpose of participation in the case of a third party who does not declare independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute is to prevent adverse consequences for him. A person, in order to be involved in the process as a third party who does not declare independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute, must have a pronounced economic or other legal interest in the future. That is, after the resolution of the case by the court, such persons have, change or terminate substantive legal relations with one of the parties.

In paragraph 1 of the decision of the Plenum of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation dated May 28, 2009 No. 36 “On the application of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation when considering cases in an arbitration court of appeal”, it is explained that a judicial act is considered adopted on the rights and obligations of a person not involved in participation in the case, if it is adopted on their rights and obligations, that is, this judicial act directly affects their rights and obligations, including obstacles to the exercise of their subjective right or the proper fulfillment of obligations in relation to one of the parties to the dispute.

Within the meaning of these procedural rules and clarifications, the participation of a third party who does not declare independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute in the proceedings is required if the judicial act, which ends the consideration of the case in the arbitration court of first instance, may affect his rights or obligations, that is, directly will lead to the emergence, change or termination of the relevant legal relationship between the third party and the party to the litigation.

The institution of third parties provided for by the procedural legislation, both declaring and not declaring independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute, is designed to provide judicial protection to all persons interested in the outcome of the dispute and prevent the adoption of judicial acts on the rights and obligations of these persons without their participation.

At the same time, a third party who does not declare independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute is an alleged participant in a substantive legal relationship related in object and composition to the one that is the subject of proceedings in an arbitration court.

The basis for the entry (involvement) in the case of a third party who does not declare independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute is the possibility of filing a claim against a third party or the emergence of a right to claim from a third party, due to the interconnectedness of the main disputed legal relationship between the party and such a person.

By virtue of the article of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, each person participating in the case must prove the circumstances to which he refers as the basis for his claims and objections.

The judicial act adopted in this case will not lead to the emergence, change or termination of the relevant legal relations between the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Bashkortostan and one of the parties to the litigation, since the issue of the boundaries of the land plot occupied by the cemetery and the procedure for forming this plot is not the subject of this dispute, and the fact that the said Ministry has any interest in the outcome of the case is not in itself a basis for involvement in the case.

Thus, in the present case, there are no statutory grounds for involving the Ministry of the Republic of Bashkortostan as a third party that does not file independent claims regarding the subject matter of the dispute.

The appellant's petition for the appointment of an environmental expert review asking the expert whether it is possible, according to environmental standards and rules, to organize new burial sites from the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery; whether the forest belt located in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery performs environmentally protective functions, and whether clear-cutting is allowed in the eastern part of the cemetery, the court of appeal considered and rejected, since the questions that the appellant asks to put to the expert do not relate to the subject spore.

In the framework of the present case, considered in accordance with chapter 24 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the court in accordance with Part. 4 Article. Section III. Proceedings in the Arbitration Court of First Instance in Cases Arising from Administrative and Other Public Legal Relations state or other public powers, officials > Article 200. Trial in cases of contesting non-normative legal acts, decisions and actions (inaction) of bodies exercising public powers, officials" target="_blank"> 200 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, is only obliged to establish the compliance of the disputed letter with the law or other regulatory legal act, check the existence those grounds for refusing to issue a permit to cut trees, which are indicated in the letter, to establish whether the Administration has the authority to decide on the refusal to issue a permit to cut green spaces, and also to establish whether the disputed refusal to cut down violates the rights and legitimate interests of the applicant in business and other economic activities.

If the applicant's claims are recognized as justified, the court, by virtue of clause 3 of part 4 and clause 3 of part 5 of Article III. Proceedings in the Arbitration Court of First Instance in Cases Arising from Administrative and Other Public Legal Relations > Article 201. The decision of the arbitration court in the case of contesting non-normative legal acts, decisions and actions (inaction) of bodies exercising public powers, officials" target="_blank"> 201 Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation is also obliged to determine a method of restoring the violated right of the applicant that is adequate to the violation committed.

The issues of interest to the appellant regarding the organization of new graves in the cemetery, determining the function of the shelterbelt, as well as determining the method of felling tree and shrub vegetation are resolved by the persons participating in the case directly within the framework of the procedure for issuing a permit for cutting trees and are not included in the subject of this dispute, in connection with which there is no need for an environmental impact assessment in this case.

In addition, the issue of an environmental review and the corresponding application of the Administration is related to its proposed interpretation of the term "burial place", by which the appellant means each grave, and not the cemetery as a whole. This argument is stated in the appeal and considered by the Court of Appeal. He is assessed below, in the motivational part of this resolution.

Having checked the legality and validity of the judicial act in the manner prescribed by Chapter 34 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the panel of judges of the appellate court recognizes as correct the conclusions of the court of first instance that the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the municipal district of the Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan has those grounds for refusing to obtain permission to felling of trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, which are set out in letter No. 1813 dated 12/11/2015, but comes to the conclusion that there are grounds for changing the judicial act in terms of determining the method of restoration violated right.

In doing so, the panel of judges proceeds from the following:

The materials of the case confirm that the Yuzhnoye cemetery has been operating since 1974.

In the period from 12/31/1971 to 05/13/2008, for the purpose of locating the cemetery at the expense of the state forest fund and agricultural land, a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229 with an area of ​​990942 sq.m. lands of industry, energy, transport, communications, broadcasting, television, informatics, lands for space activities, lands of defense, security and other lands special purpose. Permitted use - under the cemetery "Southern".

MBU Combine of Specialized Services of the Urban District of Ufa, this land plot was granted for permanent (unlimited) use by Decree No. 2333 dated 12/02/2010.

In connection with the fall of overmature trees and the need to clear the next plot for burial within the boundaries of the land plot allocated to the cemetery with the cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, the applicant addressed the Administration with a letter dated 11/13/2015 No. 11-7 / 180 (entry No. 1285 dated November 13, 2015) on issuing a permit for felling trees on a land plot in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery, attaching a tree layout to the application.

By letter No. 1728 dated November 26, 2015, the Administration indicated that the issue of issuing the requested permit for deforestation would be resolved after the provision of the necessary documents in accordance with the current legislation (title documents for the land plot, an act of agreeing the boundaries of this land plot).

On the basis of this letter, the applicant submitted to the Administration with a cover letter No. 1728 dated 11/26/2015 the above-mentioned decision on the provision of a land plot on the right of permanent (perpetual) use No. 2333 dated 12/02/2010, an extract from the USRR for the land plot dated 11/06/2012, a cadastral passport .

The administration, by letter No. 1813 dated 12/11/2015, refused to issue a permit to the applicant to cut down trees, referring to the protocol of the environmental commission of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the MR Ufimsky district of the Republic of Belarus No. 2 dated 12/10/2015 and citing the provisions of clauses 2.1., 2.4. "Regulations on the procedure for cutting down green spaces in the territory of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District of the Ufimsky District of the Republic of Bashkortostan", approved by the decision of the Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District of the Ufimsky District No. 78 of 03/27/2012.

MBU Combine of Specialized Services of the Urban District of Ufa challenged this refusal in court.

Satisfying the stated requirements and declaring illegal this refusal to obtain permission to cut trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, the court of first instance reasonably proceeded from the lack of the Administration to refuse the applicant to cut trees on granted him a land plot on the grounds specified in the letter No. 1813 dated 12/11/2015.

The conclusions of the court in this part are correct, correspond to the circumstances of the case, the norms of substantive law and are not subject to reassessment, based on the following:

By virtue of the provisions of h. 1 Article. Section III. Proceedings in the Arbitration Court of First Instance in Cases Arising from Administrative and Other Public Legal Relations state or other public authorities, officials > Article 198. The right to appeal to arbitration court with a statement on the recognition of non-normative legal acts as invalid, decisions and actions (inaction) illegal "target="_blank"> 198, part 4 of article Section III. Proceedings in the arbitration court of first instance in cases arising from administrative and other public legal relations > Chapter 24 contesting non-normative legal acts, decisions and actions (inaction) of bodies exercising public powers, officials" target="_blank">200, Part 2 of Art. Section III. Proceedings in the Arbitration Court of First Instance in Cases Arising from Administrative and Other Public Legal Relations > Article 201. The decision of the arbitration court in the case of contesting non-normative legal acts, decisions and actions (inaction) of bodies exercising public powers, officials" target="_blank"> 201 Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation in order to satisfy the requirements for invalidating the decisions of bodies exercising public powers, officials, a combination of two conditions is necessary: ​​non-compliance with the law or other regulatory legal act of the contested non-normative legal act, decisions and actions (inaction) and violation of the rights and legitimate interests of the applicant in the field of entrepreneurial and other economic activities.

By the decision of the Council of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District of Ufimsky District of the Republic of Belarus dated March 27, 2012 No. 78, the “Regulation on the procedure for cutting down green spaces in the territory of the rural settlement of Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District of Ufimsky District of the Republic of Bashkortostan” (hereinafter referred to as the Regulation), clause 2.1. which established that the felling of trees and shrubs for general use may be permitted in the following cases: implementation of the approved project of the provided urban planning documentation, which has a positive conclusion from the state environmental review; carrying out sanitary cuttings and reconstruction of green spaces (dead, damaged, not recoverable, dead, emergency (having a slope of less than 45 degrees)); restoration in accordance with the standards of the light regime in residential and non-residential premises shaded by trees (from the outer walls of buildings and structures: trees - 5m, shrubs - 1.5m); felling trees and shrubs growing in protected areas of engineering networks and communications; implementation of the landscaping project.

Felling of trees and shrubs is carried out on the basis of a permit, which is issued in the form of an order of the head of the Administration of the rural settlement of the Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district of the Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan (paragraph 2.3 of the Regulations).

Clause 2.4. The Regulations establish that the right to obtain permission to cut down land plantings is exercised by submitting an application addressed to the head of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Belarus in writing, indicating the number and name of plantings, their condition, trunk diameter, reasons for their cutting down. The application shall be accompanied by the following documents: a diagram of the site to the nearest buildings and other landmarks with the application of green spaces to be cut down. The scheme must have a visa of the head of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council, containing a resolution on consent or refusal to cut down, certified by a seal. Also, the application is accompanied by title and right confirming documents for the land plot, as well as approved urban planning documentation in case green spaces are cut down, which creates obstacles during the construction of buildings and structures.

Clause 2.5. The Regulations established a commission procedure for recognizing green spaces as subject to felling based on the results of their inspection on the spot.

Based on the results of the inspection, the commission draws up an act recognizing green spaces as subject to felling (Appendix No. 1), a checklist (Appendix No. 2) and an estimate for calculating the cost of compensatory landscaping (if necessary).

In accordance with clause 2.6. of the aforementioned Regulations, upon receipt of approval for the performance of work and a checklist (in the event of the destruction of trees), the person in whose interests green spaces are destroyed, in accordance with the Regulations, is obliged to make payments for cutting down green spaces in the amount of the compensation cost and compensate for the damage caused by the destruction of green spaces, compensatory landscaping.

Clause 2.7. The Regulations establish that payment for trees and shrubs to be cut down is made by the person receiving the felling permit before it is issued in the amount of the compensation cost (in accordance with the transfer sheet). The rate of payment per unit volume of forest resources and the rate of payment per unit area of ​​a forest plot are established and approved by the Council of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan (Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated May 22, 2007 No. 310 “On the rates of payment per unit area of ​​a forest plot owned by the federal government).

From the above requirements, it can be seen that the basis for the emergence of the right to cut down and obtain the appropriate permit is a complex legal structure, consisting of the following legal facts that arise in sequence:

Application addressed to the head of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Belarus for obtaining a visa for the head of the Administration on the scheme of the felling site, containing a resolution on consent or refusal to cut down, certified by a seal (since it is impossible to obtain a visa of the head of the Administration without applying for it );

Handling an application in accordance with clause 2.4. Regulations addressed to the head of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Belarus, that is, indicating the number and name of plantings, their condition, trunk diameter, reasons for their felling and with the application of the site diagram to the nearest buildings and other landmarks with the application of green spaces to be felling, title documents and the right confirming documents for a land plot, as well as approved urban planning documentation in the event that green spaces are cut down, which creates obstacles in the construction of buildings and structures;

Commission inspection of green spaces to be cut down with drawing up an act on the recognition of green spaces to be cut down (Appendix No. 1), an accounting statement (Appendix No. 2) and an estimate for calculating the cost of compensatory landscaping in accordance with clause 2.5 of the Regulations;

Payment for cut down trees and shrubs in the amount of the compensation cost (according to the checklist) in accordance with paragraphs. 2.7., 2.6. Provisions.

Only after the full implementation of this procedure, the economic entity has the right to demand the issuance of a felling permit.

In the situation under consideration, the MBU "Specialized Service Combine" could not implement the first of the above stages (obtain a visa from the head of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan), which, as a result, excludes the implementation of the subsequent stages of considering the application of the institution and issuing a permit for felling of trees.

Contrary to the arguments of the appellant, the letter of the Administration No. 1813 dated 12/11/2015 is a refusal to issue a permit for felling trees, since it expressly states that the protocol of the meeting of the environmental commission No. 2 dated 12/10/2015 denied the institution to cut trees according to its As a result, a tree felling permit cannot be issued. Thus, the letter clearly expresses the will of the local government aimed at refusing to issue a permit for felling, and therefore the panel of judges has no reason to evaluate this letter as a document of a recommendatory nature.

Considering the existence of grounds for refusing to issue a permit for felling, the court of first instance came to the correct conclusion that the protocol No. 2 of the meeting of the environmental commission of December 10, 2015 cannot be a basis for refusing to issue a permit for felling trees, since on the procedure for cutting down green spaces in the territory of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District of the Ufimsky District of the Republic of Bashkortostan ”(as amended in the case materials) the procedure for the meeting of the environmental commission and its significance for considering the issue of cutting down are not regulated.

From the content of the mentioned protocol of the meeting of the environmental commission, it is not possible to establish what the commission proceeded from when drawing a conclusion about the deterioration of the environmental situation and the impact of the issue of cutting down trees on this situation. Data from inspections of authorized bodies, statistical or scientific research etc. in this conclusion are not given and are not attached to it, there are also no documents in the case that allow us to conclude that the members of the commission have the appropriate qualifications necessary for issuing such conclusions.

The argument of the Administration about the submission by the applicant of an incomplete set of documents by the courts of the first and appellate instances was investigated and rejected, since it is clear from the case materials that the institution submitted to the Administration those documents that were indicated in letter No. agreement on the boundaries of the given land plot). The challenged letter No. 1813 dated 11.12.2015 contains no indications of other specific documents that should have been submitted to the institution in order to obtain a logging permit. Contrary to the arguments of the appeal, the disputed letter does not contain references to the provision of an incomplete set of documents. Literally quoting in this letter paragraphs 2.1. and 2.4. "Regulations on the procedure for cutting down green spaces in the territory of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the municipal district of the Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan", the Administration did not draw conclusions about the failure to comply with the specific requirements of the Regulations, it is not clear from the content of the letter which circumstance is the basis for refusing to issue a permit for felling ( lack of grounds for cutting down, failure to submit a specific document, violation of the requirements for the content of the application for cutting down, other circumstances), in connection with which the conclusion of the court of first instance that such a refusal to cut down cannot be considered motivated and justified should be recognized as correct.

The Administration's argument that the company's application for felling trees itself did not contain information about the number, name of plantings, their condition, trunk diameter and reasons for felling, the felling scheme does not contain the visa of the head of the Administration, is unfounded, since these circumstances were not indicated as grounds for the refusal to issue a tree felling permit appealed by the institution, in connection with which the Administration is not entitled to refer to them in support of its refusal to cut down trees.

Moreover, the reasons for felling are indicated in the application of the institution, and the lack of information about the number and name of plantings, their condition and trunk diameter cannot in itself be the basis for refusing to cut down, since from the analysis of paragraphs 2.4.-2.6. "Regulations on the procedure for felling green spaces in the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan" it is clear that the information indicated when applying for felling is indicative, the final information is determined by the local government based on the results of a commission inspection of the subject cutting down the site, during which an act is drawn up on the recognition of green spaces to be cut down (Appendix No. 1), a checklist (Appendix No. 2) and an estimate for calculating the cost of compensatory landscaping.

The approval by the head of the Administration of the scheme submitted by the company, as indicated above, is the first stage in considering an application for issuing a permit for cutting trees, since the applicant cannot submit to the Administration a diagram of the felling site with a visa from the head of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Selsoviet of the municipal district Ufimsky district of the Republic of Belarus before applying for an application for cutting down with such a scheme attached, in connection with which the failure of the local government to fulfill the obligation to approve the scheme cannot be blamed on the applicant and be an obstacle to the implementation of the tree cutting procedure.

Having checked the argument of the Administration on the closure of the Yuzhnoye cemetery by the decision of the head of the Administration of the urban district of Ufa of the Republic of Bashkortostan dated February 14, 2011 No. 694, the panel of judges established that this cemetery is active, in confirmation of which the MBU "KSO" presented a number of resolutions of the City District Council Ufa of the Republic of Bashkortostan, including Decree No. 55/2 dated December 30, 2015, according to which the Yuzhnoye cemetery is valid.

The appellant's arguments about the impossibility of cutting down trees to prepare new places for burial before receiving a positive conclusion from the environmental and sanitary-epidemiological examination in accordance with Art. 16, 17 of the Federal Law of January 12, 1996 No. 8-FZ "On Burial and Funeral Business" and SanPiN 2.1.2882-11 "Hygienic requirements for the placement, arrangement and maintenance of cemeteries, buildings and structures for funeral purposes" (hereinafter - SanPiN 2.1.2882 -11), the court of appeal investigated and rejected as based on an incorrect interpretation of substantive law, since these rules of law provide for obtaining an environmental and sanitary-epidemiological expert opinion only when creating new burial sites and reconstructing existing ones. At the same time, under the burial place, by virtue of Art. 4 of the said Law is understood as plots of land allotted in accordance with ethical, sanitary and environmental requirements with cemeteries being built on them for the burial of bodies (remains) of the dead, walls of sorrow for burying urns with the ashes of the dead (ash after burning the bodies (remains) of the dead, crematoria for tradition bodies (remains) of the dead to fire, as well as other buildings and structures intended for the burial of the dead.

In other words, the place of burial in relation to the situation under consideration means a land plot intended for the placement of a cemetery, and not for the placement of a specific burial (grave), as the appellant claims.

The provisions of SanPiN 2.1.2882-11, to which the Administration refers in support of its position in the case, are applied to the placement, expansion and reconstruction of cemeteries, buildings, structures, funeral facilities, while the Yuzhnoye cemetery is not a new burial place, there is no information about its expansion or reconstruction in the file.

According to the application under consideration, the MBU KSO requested permission to cut trees and shrubs within the boundaries of an existing land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229 with an area of ​​990942 sq.m., which was provided to the applicant for permanent (perpetual) use by resolution No. .2010, which excludes the application to the situation under consideration of the above provisions of the Federal Law of January 12, 1996 No. 8-FZ “On Burial and Funeral Business” and SanPiN 2.1.2882-11. In support of this argument, the institution also submitted a letter from the federal state budgetary health care institution "Head Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology" dated May 11, 2016 No. 52/560 "On the sanitary and epidemiological examination of the cemetery."

Supporting the conclusion of the court of first instance that the Administration does not have those grounds for refusing to issue a permit for cutting down trees, which are indicated in its letter No. 1813 dated 11.12. /180 dated 11/13/2015 on issuing a permit for felling trees not only for the purpose of preparing new places for burial (new graves), but also in connection with the fall of overmature trees, that is, for sanitary felling of emergency trees and landscaping of the cemetery, which is a direct responsibility of the institution by virtue of the functions assigned to it, the execution of which the Administration has no right to interfere with.

From the letter of the Office of Public Utilities No. 86-04-1966 of April 18, 2016 submitted by the applicant, it can be seen that, according to the results of the assessment of the condition of trees located on the land plot with the cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, it was found that out of 2,358 1202 trees inspected by visual signs are in good condition (51%), 206 trees are dead (8.7%), 950 trees are in unsatisfactory condition - 40.3% (there are signs of diseases of the trunk (hollows, extensive dry pests, dead top, which indicates that the MBU "KSO" has an objective need for cutting down dead trees.

From the circumstances of the case and the explanations of the persons involved in the case, it can be seen that the position of the Administration of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky village council of the municipal district of the Ufimsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan is aimed at preserving the existing sanitary protection zone of the cemetery and preventing the felling of trees of the land adjacent to the cemetery occupied by the lands of the forest fund. The administration is also concerned about the location of the city cemetery in close proximity to the territory of the municipality under its jurisdiction, the seasonal flooding of the cemetery with underground and spring waters and the threat to the sanitary and epidemiological safety of the population of the Mikhailovsky village council associated with this process.

At the same time, it follows from the written and oral explanations of the MBU CSR that the tree and shrub vegetation, which is being cut down, is not a specially planted plantation with a specific functional purpose for planting greenery on the territory of a rural settlement, does not have any purpose at all, including sanitary - protective, but appeared as a result of spontaneous growth from plant seeds in the territory allotted to the cemetery, and the lack of permission to cut down such vegetation hinders the development of the existing territory and the improvement of the cemetery.

Assessing these arguments of the persons participating in the case, the panel of judges notes that the dispute about the boundaries and area of ​​the land plot occupied by the cemetery, the legality of including forest fund lands in its territory when forming a land plot for the cemetery before it is provided to the applicant on the right of permanent (perpetual) use, the presence of claims of other persons on the land plot allocated for the cemetery, as well as on compliance with sanitary and epidemiological requirements when allocating the land plot for the cemetery, cannot be resolved when considering a case on challenging the refusal to cut down trees within the boundaries of the land plot allocated to the applicant in accordance with Chapter 24 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. These circumstances are not included in the subject of this dispute, in connection with which the arguments and objections of the persons participating in the case regarding the establishment of the boundaries of the land plot and determining the procedure for its formation, as well as references to relevant evidence, are rejected by the court of appeal as not related to the subject of this dispute.

With regard to the appellant's argument that cutting down trees according to the scheme attached to the application may affect the lands of the forest fund, the court of appeal notes that the institution obviously has no right to cut down trees and shrubs on the neighboring land belonging to the lands of the forest fund and not provided to it, in connection with which paragraphs 2.5., 2.6. The Regulations on cutting down provide for the control functions of the local government for commission inspection of green spaces to be cut down and their recognition as subject to cutting down, as well as determining the amount of payment for cutting down green spaces (if there are grounds for making such payments).

Within the framework of exercising its powers established by the above paragraphs of the Regulations, the Administration is obliged to consider the requirements of the applicant in relation to each of the goals declared by him, to inspect the vegetation indicated on the diagram attached to the application, and to determine which of the trees indicated on the applicant’s diagram are green plantations, and which ones are not, but have grown spontaneously; on what land plot these plants grow; for what purposes is the tree and shrub vegetation growing on the land plot provided to the applicant for the location of the cemetery intended; What is her condition at the time of the inspection? Based on the results of the inspection by the Administration Commission in the manner prescribed by paragraph 2.5. Regulations, it is necessary to determine which green spaces are to be cut down, draw up an appropriate act (according to Appendix No. 1), a transfer sheet (according to Appendix No. 2) and calculate the cost of compensatory landscaping (if necessary).

Proper implementation of this procedure by the Administration, on the one hand, makes it possible to fully eliminate the cutting down of green spaces land plots that do not belong to the applicant, including the forest protection zone of the cemetery (if any), and on the other hand, allows to ensure the fulfillment of the obligations of the MBU KSO for the implementation of its statutory activities of burying the bodies and ashes of the deceased (deceased) in the territory allotted for these purposes and conducting works on sanitary felling of fallen overmature trees and improvement of the cemetery.

The refusal to issue a permit to the MBU KSO for felling trees and shrubs violates its rights and legitimate interests, as it prevents the development of the existing territory and the improvement of the cemetery.

In view of the foregoing, the panel of judges recognizes as justified the conclusion of the court of first instance that there are no grounds indicated in the letter of the Administration No. 1813 dated 12/11/2015 for refusing to obtain permission to cut trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47: 110701:229, but at the same time comes to the conclusion that the court incorrectly determined the method of restoring the violated right of the applicant.

From the above provisions of paragraphs 2.4., 2.5., 2.6., 2.7. "Regulations on the procedure for felling green spaces in the territory of the rural settlement Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District Ufimsky District of the Republic of Bashkortostan", approved by the decision of the Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District Ufimsky District No. the entire procedure for the commission inspection of trees to be cut down, the preparation of the relevant act, the balance sheet, the determination of the cost of compensatory landscaping (if necessary) and its payment. Within the framework of this procedure, the grounds and goals of cutting down are established, the trees to be cut down, their location, condition and purpose are determined, the issue of compensation for the compensation cost of landscaping is resolved.

The applicant's claims for the restoration of the violated right by issuing a permit for cutting down trees in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery, located on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, according to the layout proposed by the company, only on the basis of an application from the MBU CSR until full implementation the above procedure for recognizing trees and shrubs as subject to felling are premature, since the issuance of a permit for felling is a consequence of the implementation by the Administration of the above-described step-by-step procedure for inspecting trees declared for felling and identifying specific trees to be felled.

The method of restoring the violated right applied by the court in this case can lead to the felling of trees and shrubs arbitrarily, regardless of their condition, purpose, location and without paying the cost of compensatory landscaping (if there are grounds for paying it), which directly contradicts clauses 2.5., 2.6 .,2.7. the aforementioned regulation.

Consequently, when resolving the issue of restoring the violated right, the court of first instance was not entitled to replace the local government in resolving the issue of determining the grounds and area for felling, specific trees and shrubs to be cut down, and to impose on the Administration the obligation to issue a permit for felling trees in the eastern parts of the Yuzhnoye cemetery located on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701:229, according to the scheme of their location proposed by the company, without implementing the above procedure for determining green spaces to be cut down, drawing up an inspection report, a transfer sheet, calculating and paying the cost compensatory landscaping.

In this regard, the panel of judges concludes that there are grounds for changing the decision of the court of first instance in terms of determining the method of restoring the violated right and considers it necessary to oblige the Administration to eliminate the violation of the rights and legitimate interests of the applicant through the implementation of the “Regulations on the procedure for cutting green spaces in the territory of a rural settlement” Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District of Ufimsky District of the Republic of Bashkortostan”, approved by the decision of the Mikhailovsky Village Council of the Municipal District of Ufimsky District No. 78 dated 03/27/2012, the procedure for obtaining permission to cut green spaces in the eastern part of the Yuzhnoye cemetery on a land plot with cadastral number 02:47:110701 :229.

Accordingly, the decision of the court of first instance in terms of determining the method of restoring the violated right is subject to change on the basis of paragraph 3 of part 1 of Art. of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation on the grounds of inconsistency between the conclusions set out in the decision and the circumstances of the case.

Violations of the rules of procedural law, which are the unconditional basis for the cancellation of a judicial act on the basis of Part 4 of Art. The Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation has not been established.

The appellant (local self-government body) is exempted from paying the state fee, in connection with which the issue of the distribution of expenses for paying the state fee for its consideration by the court of appeal is not considered.

Sometimes trees in an urban or rural area begin to interfere with residents.
