Capital Mayor Orders Simplification of Municipal Property Lease Agreement Procedures

At a planning meeting, Bishkek Mayor Aibek Junushaliev heard a report of the Director of the Department of Municipal Property Management (DUMI) for 2024. The Department has fulfilled the plan for revenues to the local budget, and for 2025 new tasks have been set.

Junushaliyev instructed to simplify the procedures for leasing municipal property, emphasising the need to conclude lease agreements within a short period of time after auctions. This decision is due to complaints that consideration of issues is sometimes delayed for 6-7 months. The mayor noted that delays hinder the improvement of conditions for citizens and may contribute to corruption risks.

Among the priorities for 2025, the department will be actively engaged in the return of land plots. We are talking about lands transferred for garage co-operatives, which were not used or were allocated with violations. This approach is aimed at improving the efficiency of municipal property management and compliance with Kyrgyz legislation.
