The President of Tatarstan demanded adherence to building height regulations in historical settlements.

      Projects for buildings planned to be constructed in the territory of historical settlements must favorably highlight the local environment and cultural heritage sites, as well as not disrupt the established appearance of the streets. It is also necessary to adhere to the number of floors, and when constructing residential buildings, to consider the need for social facilities: schools and kindergartens. This was stated by the Head of Tatarstan, Rustam Minnikhanov, at today's meeting of the Interdepartmental Commission on Urban Planning Activities in Historical Settlements. The meeting was attended by the assistant to the Head of Tatarstan, Olesya Baltusova, the mayor of Kazan, Ilsur Metshin, permanent members of the commission, heads of departments, and members of the architectural community, as reported by the press service of the republic's leader. The chief architect of the capital of Tatarstan, Ilyasiyar Tukhvatullina, reported on the implementation of new construction projects in the historical settlement of Kazan. The discussion included the underground parking building and commercial facility on Tukay Street, the multifunctional center for spiritual and national education "Kazan Madrasah named after the 1000th anniversary of the adoption of Islam" on Mazit Gafuri Street, the business center and extension of the educational building of KAI (with major repairs to the existing building) on Podluzhnaya Street, reconstruction and major repairs of facilities on Klara Zetkin Street, a multifunctional complex on Tabeykina Street, a residential complex on Gladilova Street, and individual residential houses on Shchepkina and Kasatkina Streets. Outside of Kazan, in the territory of Tatarstan, a public catering facility is planned to be built on Lenin Street in Chistopol, a restaurant on Kommunalnaya Street in Laishevo, an executive committee building on Uritsky Street in Bilyarsk, and an individual residential house on Alexandrovskaya Street in Sviyazhsk. The commission members approved two Kazan projects with revisions: the educational center of KAI on Podluzhnaya Street and a multi-apartment residential building on Ayvazovsky Street. At the same time, they sent the residential complex on Volkova Street for revision and did not approve the project for a multi-apartment residential building on Tolstoy Street in Mamadysh due to non-compliance with floor area regulations. In addition, during the discussion, a project for the protection object, the boundaries of the territory, and requirements for urban planning regulations of the historical settlement of Sviyazhsk village was presented. The draft document outlines proposals for sustainable development of the territory, adaptation of buildings, functional use of land plots, development of tourist infrastructure, and landscaping of the area.
