Rostov region is preparing for a significant upgrade of its municipal infrastructure
The Rostov region is preparing for a significant upgrade of its municipal infrastructure. The draft regional law "On the regional budget for 2027 and for the planning period of 2028 and 2029" provides for the cost of modernizing housing and communal services.
Expenditures will be increased by about 15% to 25.4 billion rubles. The main focus of the next year’s budget is the allocation of 4.2 billion rubles for overhaul and replacement of worn-out water supply, sewerage, heat and electricity networks. These investments are designed to improve the reliability and quality of utilities for residents of the region, reduce the number of accidents and ensure the smooth operation of systems. In the following years, 2028 and 2029, it is planned to allocate 5.1 billion rubles and 459.8 million rubles, respectively, for these purposes.
In addition to network modernization, the budget provides substantial funds for other important areas. 2.2 billion rubles will be allocated for resettlement of emergency housing in 2027, and 3.7 billion rubles will be allocated for compensation of the difference between economically justified tariffs and payments of the population for water supply and sanitation.
About 2 billion rubles will be allocated annually to regional operators for the management of MSW to compensate for lost revenues.
