Bureaucracy Reducers Discover How to Build in Pieces — Just Like Liepāja Has Been Doing for Years
The government has unveiled a revolutionary idea: if one section is approved, you can start building. Liepāja residents have long known — if the wind isn't blowing from the inspector's direction, you can keep working.
Riga's wise guys have discovered the America — turns out you can build in phases! While one piece is being approved, you can already build the next one. Same shock as when they discovered last year that you can process things electronically.
"We've been doing this for years," laughs Liepāja builder Gunārs. "If you didn't finish the foundation in winter, build the walls in spring. No wind — work. Strong wind — go to 'Fontain' for coffee. No rocket science!"
The bureaucracy reduction group, which has more people sitting in it than a Liepāja city council meeting, has promised to reduce 10 "small things" per month. They probably don't know that in Liepāja, one coffee break at the 'Kurzeme' office can solve more issues than this entire committee does in a year.
"The goal is to get used to a bureaucracy reduction culture," said the group's leader. Yes, culture — when 20 people get together to figure out how to get together less. While Riga thinks about how to reduce bureaucracy, Liepāja has long known — if the wind blows from the sea, all documents fill themselves out.
