Only 40 of 96 fuel stations that meet all requirements should remain in Bishkek, vice mayor says

AKIPRESS.COM - Only 40 of 96 fuel stations that meet all requirements should remain in Bishkek, said vice-mayor Ulanbek Azygaliyev at a meeting of the Bishkek city council's commission on October 9.
The rest of them should be demolished, relocated or removed from Bishkek, Azygaliyev said.
Members of the council are discussing the results of the working commission that checked the petrol stations and found violations.
Vice-mayor Azizbek Alymkulov said there are several options for the filling station: to demolish, swap or relocate, or build another facility in the area if a leaseholder wants to build something instead of a filling station, for example, a social facility.
"We will also consider this option, as it is unprofitable for mayors' offices to search for land in exchange. They pay quite a lot of money for renting gas stations," he said.
