At the beginning of the meeting, O. Korzun thanked the employees for their active work on concluding new contracts with consumers of the capital and Minsk district, which also serves MINGAZ. In addition, he spoke about the situation this year and prospects in a number of areas of urban economy.

- Your company takes an active part in the improvement of suburban beach areas, O. Korzun emphasized. Thanks to this, we installed a considerable number of units of new equipment. For a better arrival to these locations in the spring, work was also carried out to connect the city's bike path with the Minsk region, and now you can conveniently enter and walk on them. Serious efforts are being made to repair the yard areas of the city. This year, about 900 of them have been improved. In the coming weeks, the 1,000-yard mark will be reached. In the process of carrying out these works, we strive to carry out full milling of asphalt concrete of the road surface on their roadway. This year, about 500 thousand square meters have already been changed. And in general, this is a quarter of the total area of replaced coverage of the entire street and road network of the capital.

The Deputy Chairman of the Minsk City Executive Committee also noted that in recent years the city has been striving to avoid repairing reinforced concrete structures of container waste sites in the residential sector. The emphasis is now on modular designs, and most of the container sites are already built in this form. As for green spaces, last year special attention was paid to planting such perennial plants as roses. About 50,000 flowers were planted, no less in 2026.

Oh. Korzun also touched upon the organization of the annual city festival of flower compositions, the arrangement of new recreation areas, the reconstruction of the Minsk sewage treatment plant, the construction of new overpasses, bridges and interchanges, their regulatory construction dates and other issues.

After the Deputy Chairman of the Minsk City Executive Committee answered the questions of the team. They concerned the arrangement of additional parking spaces for cars in the capital, the removal of a number of enterprises outside the city, the implementation of youth initiatives, the construction of rental housing, as well as hostels for young specialists of MINGAZ. According to V. Sholonik, only in 2026, 116 young specialists are employed, and 70-80 of them need to settle in a hostel.

Oh. Korzun answered all the questions and suggestions of the staff very thoroughly. At the end of the meeting, he once again thanked them for their hard and fruitful work, and wished the company further prosperity.

- Today, more than 2,300 people work in MINGAZ and our three branches, about 1,750 people work directly in the gas industry, said Alexey Sots, Assistant General Director. The average age of our employees is 32 years, and there are already many heads of various departments among them. Young people come to us not only from higher educational institutions of the capital, but also from the regions. Therefore, the issue of fixing them, including the provision of a hostel, is relevant for the enterprise today. Large and purposeful work is being carried out to return young people to MINGAZ after military service. Mentors are assigned to them, they are reimbursed for renting rental housing, other preferences and benefits are offered.
