All this is the fruit of your labor. Initiative is important, the support of the state is also important, but it would be impossible to move forward without your hands, without the desire to make the city cozier and more comfortable. There is a rule: to do better, you have to work. You are working, and we are enormously grateful to you for this”, said Vadim Krasnoselsky, speaking at the ceremonial meeting timed to the 393th anniversary of the first mention of Rybnitsa in chronicles.
