The project introduces amendments to the Housing Code, allowing entities to approve targeted demolition and reconstruction programs, taking into account the opinion of citizens.
According to the text, the project may include "only an apartment building, the owners and tenants of residential premises in which a majority of two-thirds of the total number of residential premises voted for the inclusion of an apartment building in the project of the demolition and reconstruction program."
In 2018, Russian President Vladimir Putin commented on the possibility of extending the renovation program to the regions.
