The State Duma simplifies urban planning activities in the federal territory “Sirius”

The State Duma in the second reading adopted a bill that regulates urban planning activities in the federal territory “Sirius” (there are no other such in Russia). Deputy Daniil Bessarabov, who presented the initiative, said that all 13 amendments were supported by the State Construction Committee. The first reading of the government bill took place on September 14, but the amendments expanded the initiative.

They are included in Art. 46.1 of the law on “Sirius” (on the features of the implementation of urban planning activities). This article is supplemented with new parts, based on which the objects of the federal territory are understood as objects that are necessary “for the exercise of powers that are exercised by the public authorities of Sirius”. These bodies are recognized as objects of federal significance when deciding on issues of construction, reconstruction, etc. At the same time, Sirius objects are not subject to inclusion in the territorial planning schemes of the Krasnodar Territory and its municipalities, including general plans, land use and development rules: powers in this part is given to the federal territory itself.
