Thanks to co-financing from the budget, Perm neighbourhood associations will build  parks, sports fields and children's playgrounds in different neighbourhoods.

During the meeting of the city commission for initiative projects there were discussed proposals from Perm neighbourhood associations. The meeting was chaired by Alexander Molokovskikh, Head of the Mayor’s Office, Acting Deputy Head of the Perm Administration. A total of 20 projects were submitted to the commission for consideration.

As a reminder, the co-financing of initiative projects is carried out in the following proportion: no more than 95% of the total project cost is allocated from Perm's budget and no less than 5% of the project cost consists of initiative payments (financial, labour and property participation of citizens). This year 22 million rubles have been allocated from the city budget to finance the initiative projects.

During the discussion, the members of the commission, including representatives of the Perm City Administration, Perm City councillors and experts, decided to support 13 initiative projects.

Thus, several recreational facilities, play spaces and accessible playgrounds will shape various neighbourhoods in all city districts..

Since 2021, 30 initiative projects have been successfully implemented, thanks to which new urban parks, play spaces and sports grounds have been built in various neighbourhoods.
