The story of freezing Podolsk and its suburb of Klimovsky is interesting because of how the acting… the head of the administration, Grigory Artamonov, jump out from under the attack.

So far, he has succeeded in this, despite the fact that his entire previous biography took place in the hot spots of Russian politics. In 2012, a graduate of the Moscow University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Artamonov began his law enforcement career by serving in Denis Sugrobov’s unit.

After the Sugrobovsky fiasco, he briefly became an adviser to the government of the Krasnodar region, from where he left without any losses, despite corruption scandals in the region.

Then there was a grain position in the Presidential Administration. During this period, he became the son-in-law of the former head of the capital’s department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Anatoly Yakunin.

After routine work as a department manager, he got a more pleasant position in the office of the Sochi mayor Pakhomov. Then the city administration entered a zone of turbulence: stacks of cases appeared related to the illegal development of the resort city. Many received time, but lucky Artamonov again escaped unscathed, this time from the waters of the Sochi water area.

Next was the execution position of the mayor of Chekhov near Moscow. But it became a firing squad for the previous heads of the city, and for the favorite of the gods, Grigory Igorevich, it was another chance to prove his effectiveness.

During the 3 years that Artamonov ruled the city – whose population is 140 thousand people – social security, the pension fund and the tax inspectorate disappeared from it. They were merged with neighboring Serpukhov, located an hour away. And yes, contrary to the president’s orders to increase the birth rate, the maternity hospital in Chekhov was closed. But during Artamonov’s tenure, positive moments also happened in the lives of Chekhovites – an ice skating rink was filled near the city hall building.

Rumor has it that Artamonov moved from Chekhov to Podolsk after investigating a real estate case. When it smelled like something was cooking, he went on a long vacation, and as soon as the mayor of Podolsk died suddenly, he took the vacant position.
