Tashkent adjusted the implementation of the design code

The Tashkent Khokimiyat changed its approach to implementing the design code after a survey of entrepreneurs and promised to consider controversial issues on a case-by-case basis.

Tashkent has changed its approach to implementing its design code.

The Tashkent City Hall has revised its design code implementation strategy, taking into account critical comments from business representatives. City officials stated that future work will be based on the principles of open dialogue, accessible information, and a personalized approach to resolving emerging issues. This was announced by the Tashkent City Hall.

From May 11 to July 26, the design code was implemented for 3,228 businesses located on 56 streets in the capital. To assess the clarity of the new requirements for businesses, the Tashkent City Hall, together with the territorial office of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, conducted a survey among entrepreneurs.

The survey results revealed that in some cases, the requirements, document processing procedures, and the sequence of necessary actions were not explained in a timely manner or were insufficiently clear. The City Hall acknowledged these comments and promised to take them into account in future work.

Currently, 509 entrepreneurs have already brought their façade design into compliance with the new requirements, and another 2,627 are completing the work. Authorities plan to address the remaining issues individually, in collaboration with district khokimiyats and relevant organizations.

Furthermore, training was organized for specialists from 18 advertising and production companies with the participation of experts from Toshkent Invest Kompaniyasi JSC, the Committee for Competition Development and Consumer Protection, and the Digital Development Department under the Tashkent City Hall.

Authorities emphasize that the goal of implementing the design code is not only to standardize façades but also to ensure transparency and fairness for entrepreneurs. According to the city hall, the requirements are intended to improve the capital's appearance without creating unnecessary difficulties for businesses.
