The issue of easing construction restrictions for tourism facilities near water bodies was raised during a meeting between President Sadyr Japarov and residents of the Tyup and Ak-Suu districts. The main problem concerns residents of the Kashka-Suu area in Chelpek village, which falls under the jurisdiction of Karakol.

Easing of architectural requirements

According to Kabar, approximately 70-80 families living on dacha plots are unable to engage in tourism activities due to current architectural norms. Citizens expressed a desire to build guest houses to provide services to tourists, but current rules prohibit construction at certain distances from the water.

To resolve this issue, the President ordered a reduction in the minimum distance from water bodies. The construction of lightweight structures will also be permitted if owners ensure the availability of wastewater treatment equipment.
