The Far East, being a strategically important region of Russia, requires special attention to the creation of modern infrastructure and comfortable living conditions. That is why work on the development of housing construction and the urban environment here is one of the important areas of the Government's work. Thus, since 2019, 23.4 million square meters of housing have already been commissioned in the Far Eastern Federal District. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
"The development of the Far East and the Arctic is of great geopolitical importance for Russia. The President pays special attention to work in this area. Therefore, we are trying to approach the development of the Far Eastern Federal District in a comprehensive manner. It is important not just to build, but to create conditions for people to live. To date, 23.4 million square meters of housing have been commissioned. But it is not only the volume that is important, but also the availability of this housing for people, and here the Far Eastern Mortgage program has shown excellent results. The numbers speak for themselves: since the beginning of the year, more than 18 thousand mortgage loans have already been issued, and a total of about 150 thousand families have received loans at an unprecedentedly low rate. At the same time, we are creating a modern urban environment, because people should live not just in new apartments, but in comfortable, well-appointed cities," said Marat Khusnullin.
The Deputy Prime Minister noted the active improvement work being carried out in the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District. To date, about 5.7 thousand territories have already been improved, including 3,120 public spaces and 2,540 courtyards.
For the subjects of the Far Eastern Federal District, a separate competition has been organized within the framework of the federal project "Formation of a comfortable urban environment", which is being held on the instructions of the President of Russia. Since its launch, 184 winning projects have been selected, of which 55 have already been implemented.
This year, the fourth competition for the best projects to create a comfortable urban environment for the Far East was held. 103 applications were submitted, and 54 projects from 11 regions of the district were declared winners. These projects will receive grants for implementation in the amount of 20 million to 300 million rubles. Thanks to them, key public spaces – parks, embankments and squares – in different parts of the Far East will be transformed.
For example, in the Sakhalin Region, in Kholmsk, the Peace Square was improved according to the "Sea Symphony" project. There was created an amphitheater for 200 seats, a pedestrian promenade with a view of the sea and an art pavilion "Wave". Ramps and tactile tiles for people with limited mobility were also installed.
A sports park called "Yantarny" with exercise machines, an amphitheater and bike paths has appeared in Dolinsk. The facility uses energy-saving lighting and modern surfaces. The park is equipped for people with disabilities.
In Buryatia, in the village of Sotnikovo, an all-season space "Khii Morin" with elements of local culture was created. An indoor area, an amphitheater stage and recreation areas were built. During construction, specialists used energy-efficient technologies and installed playgrounds.
In addition, in the sphere of integrated development of territories in the Far Eastern Federal District, 116 territories with a total area of over 2.1 thousand hectares with an urban development potential of 11.3 million square meters have been identified. 48 territories with an area of almost 704 hectares are at the implementation stage. Within the framework of the KRT, over 36 thousand square meters of housing and over 30 thousand square meters of non-residential premises have been commissioned. In addition, 24.73 thousand square meters of emergency housing have been resettled to date.
