It turned out that by decision of the khokim of the Bostanlyk district, one of the local LLCs was allocated a land plot of 40 hectares for the construction of a kindergarten and a complex of commercial-consumer services.

It is reported that the land was allocated subject to an investment of $50 million.

However, LLC officials have not yet carried out construction work on this land plot.
