Viewers' questions addressed and answered live by Yevgeny Grigoryev in online broadcast
In the heart of Siberia, Yakutsk, the capital of the Sakha Republic, is making strides in improving its infrastructure and addressing housing concerns.
The city is currently implementing street lighting as part of the national project and the 'Bright Capital' program. This initiative will see the addition of sidewalks, street lighting, and barrier fences on 50 Years of Soviet Army Street, with the completion of all work scheduled for 2027. The road is also being widened from Babushkin to Khrzhizhanovskogo to four lanes.
However, the issue of providing land plots to large families in Yakutsk remains unresolved. While government programs often exist in Russian regions to support large families by allocating land or housing subsidies, the demand usually exceeds supply, leading to waiting lists or queues. Unfortunately, the current search results do not provide specific details about the status of this issue in Yakutsk or the size of the queue for such land plots.
The city head, Yevgeny Grigoryev, has addressed road repair concerns during a live broadcast on August 18, setting a maximum task for road workers to speed up asphalt paving. He has also promised to give instructions to the road services to study the issue of street lighting on Gimeinskaya Street, following a resident's complaint about the lack of street lighting in the area.
In a bid to improve street lighting, the head of Yakutsk proposes making it possible through a concession agreement, in cooperation with the Ministry of Eastern Development. The city has made progress in this area, with street lighting coverage increasing from 64% to 73% in the last three years. Currently, the city is distributing over 1400 land plots, but the city is limited in the number it can provide.
The city head has also provided an explanation regarding the allocation of land plots in Yakutsk. He stated that the city allocates land plots to citizens who left the city to fulfill tasks in the SVO and had registration in the city.
For the latest detailed data on this topic, it is recommended to check official Yakutsk city or Sakha Republic government websites, or local news outlets that cover social policy and housing issues in the region.
