Akvilė Šaltenė, the elder of Kriaunai ward, gives detailed information about the activities

in 2022 although the prices have increased significantly, which posed various challenges, we are happy that, in 2021 even without receiving a single offer from a decent supplier in terms of price, still in 2022 managed to carry out a public procurement and buy a wood pellet heating boiler for the former Kriaunai school building, and also bought 109 t of pellets needed for heating the building. Starting in 2022-2023 for the heating season, we had to install a new heating circuit for the Kriaunai Museum, because this building is heated from the boiler room in the administrative building of Kriaunai Township, and the old circuit was no longer functional, because it simply wore out due to longevity.

We renewed the street lighting. Street lighting in the villages of Kriaunai and Lašai has been modernized, automatic control panels for street lighting lines have been installed. In total, 5 km of street lighting lines are operated and maintained.

Finally, the issue regarding the expansion of the Kriaunai cemetery, which has been going on for many years, has been moved. The vote that took place during the residents’ meeting determined that the cemetery will be expanded in the previously planned location. Therefore, in the autumn, the expansion works of the Kriaunai cemetery were started – the plot was leveled, an access road was installed and parking spaces were formed, the necessary materials for fencing the territory of the plot were purchased: fence segments, gates and building materials.
