Childhood and adolescence
The biography of Sergey Nikolaevich Yastrebov begins on June 30, 1954 - it was on this day that he was born in the city of Shcherbakov, Yaroslavl Region. The boy grew up in a simple working family. His father and mother worked at a local engine building plant. From a young age, they introduced Sergei to work and sports, the latter later grew into a real passion.
According to Yastrebov himself, as a child he loved two things: handball and high jump. In order to achieve success in these disciplines, he enrolled in a local athletics club. Many hours of training led to the fact that during his school years the boy repeatedly became the champion of the Yaroslavl region.
After graduating from school, Sergei Nikolayevich Yastrebov entered the Rybinsk Aviation Technological Institute. Here he studied aircraft engine maintenance and metalworking.
Beginning of adult life
As for most Soviet youths, Sergei Nikolaevich's adult life began immediately after being drafted into the army in 1976. It was here that boys were turned into men, tempering their spirit and body. As for Yastrebov, the service was easy for him, since his physical training allowed him to get involved in the harsh routine of army everyday life from the first days.
Demobilized Sergei Nikolaevich in 1978. Immediately after that, he went to work for the Rybinsk Motor Production Association. Initially received the position of a designer, but quickly climbed the career ladder.
In 1980, Sergey Nikolayevich Yastrebov was already listed as the secretary of the Komsomol. This was the beginning of his long journey through the communist governing organizations. So, in 1982 he became the first secretary in the Rybinsk city committee of the Komsomol, in 1985 - the second secretary of the Yaroslavl regional committee, and in 1988 - the secretary of the Frunze district committee of the CPSU of Yaroslavl.
New country - new power
The collapse of the Soviet Union led to an active change of power in the field. For Sergei Yastrebov, these changes have benefited. In 1992, he received the post of head of the administration of the Frunzensky district. And in June 1998, he earned the same position, only in the Kirovsky district of Yaroslavl, which became good ground for further career growth.
In April 2004 Yastrebov Sergei Nikolaevich moved to work in the city administration of Yaroslavl. Here he is in the position of deputy mayor: initially he headed the city economy, but in 2006year became responsible for the socio-economic development of the region. Here he worked until 2011.
Political activity
In parliament Sergei Nikolayevich Yastrebov is a member of United Russia. At the end of 2011, an internal vote was held within the party, which decided who should represent their interests in the gubernatorial elections in Yaroslavl. According to official data, Sergei Yastrebov won, but then his candidacy was not approved.
Instead, he was appointed deputy governor in March 2012. In this position, he manifests himself as an experienced leader and politician, which undoubtedly benefits his reputation. Therefore, it is not surprising that after the departure of Sergei Vakhrukov from the post of governor, he becomes the main contender for his place.
As governor
First, the president appoints Sergei Yastrebov as interim governor. A day later, the decision on his candidacy is passed to the parliament, where it is unambiguously approved. Thus, on May 5, 2012, Sergei Nikolayevich becomes the legitimate governor of the Yaroslavl region.
Initially, his decisions were to the liking of the townspeople. It was during his reign that the region was able to double its budget. This was due to the fact that Yastrebov actively developed industry and small business. Alas, this trend did not last long - soon the residents of Yaroslavl began to notice that their governor was responding to some problems with a delay.
For example, he was well aware ofthat the refinery them. Mendeleev is on the verge of complete collapse. However, instead of taking active steps to save him, he continues to ignore this problem. As a result, the closure of the refinery almost caused an environmental disaster. And this is just one of the few examples of the governor's negligent work.
Scandals and rumors
In the last years of his reign, Governor Sergei Nikolayevich Yastrebov, unfortunately, gained fame as a corrupt official. And the real estate policy is to blame for everything, which not only did not correspond to his income, but was not yet declared. In particular, we are talking about two land plots for a mansion with a total area of 3.5 thousand m².
As a result, Yastrebov's rule caused a wave of discontent among Yaroslavl residents. On July 28, 2016, Nikolai Sergeevich resigned early.
