The Akim of the Abai region, Berik Uali, visited the city of Kurchatov on a working trip.
The regional leader inspected the House of Children's and Youth Creativity, which was renovated with private investments. In addition to clubs for robotics, sewing, dancing, pottery, and gaming technologies, an assembly hall has been equipped here.
After the institution opens, it will provide jobs for around 20 people.
Currently, there are active efforts in the city to restore abandoned buildings. Vacant multi-story houses are gradually being brought back into order. In Kurchatov, 28 buildings are slated for reconstruction. At present, two residential buildings are being restored, and plans are in place to update two more soon.
Once the work is completed, housing will be provided to large families, orphans, and government employees. Currently, there are 249 people on the housing waiting list in the city.
After reviewing the progress of the residential building restorations, the Akim of the region instructed to continue the work.
“Kurchatov is a city with a great future and high scientific potential. Therefore, it is important to restore abandoned buildings and make them available for residents. At this moment, we are revising the regional budget and will provide maximum support to Kurchatov,” the regional leader noted.
