At a meeting with residents of Zhetysu district, Almaty Mayor Yerbolat Dossayev expressed his opinion on residents' complaints regarding the operation of kebab houses in the city.The mayor said that in March this year, rules for protecting the atmospheric air of Almaty will be introduced to the maslikhat. These rules provide for the installation of hydrofilters and control measures.“Last year, we launched a similar initiative, which was supported. We are presenting these rules to the maslikhat as part of the changes made to the legislation. If they are adopted, we will have the necessary tools to start real work. As I said earlier, we have no right to interfere in the activities of entrepreneurs without legal grounds. And if the rules are approved, we can work in accordance with them,” said Yerbolat Dossaev.In turn, a resident of the district suggested replacing the hydrofilters in the kebab houses with gas.“This is the second stage of the work. The main issue now is to make changes related to the regulation of the activities of kebab houses. We will discuss the issue of switching to gas later. I will involve the district akims in this issue, they will monitor the operation of the filters in these establishments,” the city akim concluded.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/937915

An extraordinary XXVII session of the city Maslikhat was held in Almaty. One of the issues on the agenda was the recognition of newly created public transport routes as socially significant in order to make them accessible to the population.Speaking to the deputies of the city Maslikhat, the head of the Almaty mobility department, Sagyndyk Telibayev, noted that a significant part of the suburban population faces the problem of a lack of public transport, which forces them to use private transportation services.“More than 300 thousand vehicles enter the city every day. In order to reduce the high flow of vehicles entering the city and increase the mobility of the city’s residents, the Almaty akimat has organized 147 urban and 54 suburban routes today. Of these, only 178 routes are included in the list of socially significant routes. "In order to ensure the accessibility of the remaining 23 routes for the population, they need to be included in the list of socially significant routes," the head of the department noted.Following the results of the meeting, the deputies supported this proposal.It should be noted that in 2024, on the instructions of Almaty Mayor Yerbolat Dossayev, 20 suburban and 2 urban routes were launched in the city. This year, in order to increase the accessibility and development of public transport, it is planned to purchase 800 environmentally friendly buses.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/936163

In Almaty, on the instructions of the city akim, a “Plan for the development of the city's heat supply for the period up to 2030 with a perspective until 2040” was developed. This was reported by the acting head of the Almaty Energy Department Nurbakhyt Serikbay at the extraordinary XXVII session of the Maslikhat.The document provides for the modernization and reconstruction of heating networks, the replacement of outdated technologies and equipment, as well as the construction of new boiler houses in promising construction areas.When developing the project, a forecast was implemented that will allow for the rational allocation of resources for the coming decades and guarantee the stability of heat supply in the long term.It should be noted that today the share of heating networks in Almaty that have been in operation for more than 25 years is increasing due to the transfer of ownerless networks to the city's balance sheet. By annually renewing 39 km of pipelines, it is planned to reduce the level of wear of networks to more than 20% by 2040.The modernization includes the introduction of new technologies and solutions that will significantly reduce the risk of accidents and improve the quality of services provided.It is also planned to replace old pipes with remote-controlled insulated pipes, which will reduce heat loss and maintenance costs. Also, outdated fittings will be replaced with modern ball valves.“The measures taken will increase the reliability of heat supply, ensure uninterrupted heat supply to new consumers, and reduce operating costs,” Nurbakhyt Serikbay concluded.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/936169

New temporary fences that meet modern metro safety standards have been installed at the Raimbek Batyr station. They perform two main functions: they serve as a means of protection for passengers and are used as an advertising structure.Currently, these fences are being tested for their resistance to wind loads. After passing all the necessary tests, such fences will be installed at other metro stations. In addition, representatives of the metro noted that previously installed iron fences are also being checked and, if necessary, they will be removed."Almaty metro is always striving to improve infrastructure for the comfort of passengers. This decision is a temporary measure until automated platform doors (screen doors) are installed. All work is being carried out at the expense of the enterprise itself, without involving budget funds," the press service of the metro reported.It should be noted that temporary fences are a temporary solution designed to close the space between cars and are aimed at increasing passenger safety. The process of installing automated platform doors (screen doors) is time-consuming, as it requires design, preparation of a feasibility study, financing and public procurement procedures. In this regard, temporary fences are being installed to ensure the safety of passengers.KMC "Almaty Metro"Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/934686

In Almaty, on the instructions of the city akim Yerbolat Dossayev, work has begun to demolish illegally constructed retail outlets and non-stationary retail facilities (SESN) located on state-owned land.The purpose of this measure is to combat irregular trade and increase security in the city space.In three days, a commission consisting of representatives of state and law enforcement agencies, maslikhat deputies and members of the public council demolished 211 illegal retail outlets (102 kiosks and 109 force meters), and 270 entrepreneurs were issued warning letters.It should be noted that all illegal retail facilities are being demolished, regardless of the type of activity. Particular attention is being paid to places selling street food. Several such facilities, in particular, were demolished near the state circus on Abay Avenue. These retail outlets are not connected to utility networks, electricity, and violate the rules of landscaping. Residents of the city say that buying food in such places is dangerous to health.“Illegal stalls are often placed on ditches, sanitary standards are not observed, there are no toilets. They are located near schools and places where children walk. It is not surprising that they get food poisoning later,” says city resident Evgeny Bogachev.Timur Yeleusizov, a city council deputy who is actively involved in urban development issues, noted that all of the demolished shops were illegally connected to power lines, which puts an additional burden on the city’s infrastructure.“This puts an additional burden on the city’s power lines. "It is necessary to support such initiatives to regulate their activities," he said.Let us recall that in accordance with the resolution of the Almaty Akimat No. 3/469 dated August 27, 2024, 142 places for the placement of 157 SESNs were approved in the city.Entrepreneurs who wish to continue their entrepreneurial activities within the framework of the law can contact the Almaty Department of Entrepreneurship and Investments by phone at 390 21 30.In total, about 500 illegal facilities will be demolished in Almaty. Work on identifying and removing SESNs will continue. Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/935163

The Minister of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Madi Takiev, and the Vice Minister of National Economy, Azamat Amrin, discussed with business representatives the Government's proposals on establishing differentiated VAT rates as part of the tax reform.The meeting was organized with the support of the Atameken NCE, and was attended by more than 150 representatives of business, associations, public and industry associations. Among them were representatives of the Kazakhstan Association of Tax Consultants, the Self-Regulating Public Catering Organization, members of the regional councils of the Astana Chamber of Entrepreneurs and the committees of the processing and pharmaceutical, medical industries, the Atameken NCE, the Alageum Electric group of companies, the Petro Mining Association, and others.“The Head of State, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, emphasized that the tax system should be balanced. This was a clear instruction. It should take into account the interests of business and the state. Today we have gathered to discuss one of the main issues, which concerns value-added tax. We hold many meetings in the regions with the participation of representatives of the Ministries of Economy, Finance, and the Atameken Chamber. The work is extensive and comprehensive. All proposals received at our address are listened to. We will form a single position, because the Tax Code should be very simple, understandable, and specific,” Madi Takiev noted. VAT is one of the main sources of budget replenishment. Increasing and differentiating the VAT rate will reduce the budget’s dependence on variable oil revenues and finance priority state projects. In turn, Vice Minister of National Economy Azamat Amrin outlined the Government’s proposals for establishing differentiated VAT rates as part of the tax reform. “We propose to consider the following mechanism: a general fixed VAT rate of 16%, complete exemption of agricultural producers from VAT, and for a number of industries – an intermediate rate of 10%. Thus, the differentiation of rates proposed by the Government: 16%, 10%, 0% and exemption",— explained Azamat Amrin.It was noted that currently in the agricultural sector, farms do not pay VAT, and legal entities pay only 30% of the taxes due to the existing benefits to the budget. Under the new mechanisms, none of them will pay VAT. This will make Kazakhstani agricultural products (potatoes, tomatoes, onions, etc.) more competitive. The types of industries in which the 10% rate will apply are still being discussed with business.The meeting also made proposals for reviewing the simplified declaration and retail tax regime, the essence of which is to maintain the income threshold at 600 thousand MCI (2 billion 359 million tenge) per year. The main change is to implement this regime only in the B2C segment (retail trade). It was proposed to remove the restriction on the number of employees. If the entrepreneur's income from sales exceeds 100 million tenge per year, it is possible to reduce taxable income by the amount of the wage fund (wage payment fund). Thus, the limit of 100 million tenge will provide an incentive to justify wages. At the same time, the 4% retail tax rate (with the possibility of a 50% reduction by maslikhats) will be maintained.It is expected that tax revenues to the country's budget will increase by 4-5 trillion tenge annually during the implementation of the tax reform. These funds will help reduce dependence on the National Fund; reduce the level of state debt and direct additional resources to credit investment projects, strengthen development institutions, and modernize the housing and communal services, heat and energy systems of Astana city. According to the Kazhydromet RSE of the Astana city, a tornado will occur in Astana on February 13. The wind will blow from the southwest, with a force of 15-20, with a daytime gust of 23-28 m/s. In this regard, the capital's Emergency Situations Department has issued an appeal on safety rules, the city administration's official website reports.Due to adverse weather conditions, the Astana City Emergency Situations Department recommends that citizens follow safety measures to avoid injury during strong winds and storms:- Take precautions in the winter. Follow storm warnings and avoid long journeys in case of worsening weather conditions.- Do not travel by private vehicle. If necessary, use public transport and plan your route in advance.- Be careful on the street. Snowstorms and wind can make it difficult to see, and roads can be slippery. Wear warm clothes and non-slip shoes.- Check the heating system. Make sure that the heating in your home is working properly and there is enough fuel.- Do not stay on the street for a long time - frost and wind can cause frostbite.In case of emergency, call "101" and "112".Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/935215
