During the meeting with the residents of Turksib district, Almaty mayor Yerbolat Dosayev told about the renovation of old residential buildings in the district.

Today there are 1,366 old houses in Almaty, more than 40% of which are located in Turksib district. In Altai-2 sub-district, instead of 6 demolished houses, 3 nine-story houses are being built. It is also planned to demolish 3 houses on Sauranbaev Street, after which 8 new apartment buildings will be built," Erbolat Dosayev said. The program envisages renovation of 676 old houses. Emphasis is placed on demolishing frame-reed houses and buildings located on tectonic faults.

The main principle of the program is quarterly construction. Relocation and demolition of buildings will be carried out only with the consent of all old residential owners. At the same time, the property owners are given the opportunity to exchange on the "room for room" principle or receive monetary compensation at the market value.
