Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change Minister and Istanbul 1st Region Deputy Candidate Murat Kurum met with Beykoz residents at the ‘Resilient Istanbul Meetings Rally’ in Orta Çeşme Square. In the ‘Resilient Istanbul Meetings Meeting’ event, the Minister Institution was accompanied by Beykoz Mayor Murat Aydın and many people. In his speech, Minister Kurum said, “Under the leadership of our President, who always thinks about his nation, the construction works of 113 thousand houses have started. Again, we delivered the first houses in Gaziantep and Kahramanmaraş a few days ago. We will deliver 319 thousand new homes in a year with the leadership of our President and the support of our nation. We will build a total of 650 thousand new houses and completely heal the wounds. We have made great investments in Istanbul under the leadership of our President in 21 years. We work day and night in 39 districts on both sides, we strive to carry Istanbul to the future. We hit the first digging in Gaziosmanpaşa by saying “Urban Transformation”. We say “Great Transformation of 1.5 Million Houses in Istanbul” and “Half of Us”. We announced our target. We will renew the risky 1.5 million building stock in Istanbul. For this, 500 thousand will be in Anatolia. “500 thousand of them will be located on the European side. We will not leave a single risky structure in Istanbul by transforming the remaining 500 thousand residences on-site,” he said.

“Urban transformation is a supra-political issue, a matter of life, a matter of survival”

“They will be safe structures that are compatible with the texture of Istanbul, have a horizontal architecture, are compatible with zero waste. Our campaign will progress with the following steps,” Minister Kurum said, “One of our citizens with rights will apply to our campaign via e-government. Our experts will come to the building for preliminary inspection. And we will offer our citizens the following: Either buy a house from the houses we have built in the reserve area or we will give you 5 thousand 250 TL rental support until your house is built. Another is that we will cover half of the amount our citizens will pay after the transformation. Currently, the initial installment of 2+1 flats will be 5 thousand 625 liras, and 3+1 flats will be 6 thousand 750 liras. We will deliver our houses to our beneficiaries within two years at the latest. If the number of applications exceeds 200 thousand, we will determine the right holders by lot in the presence of a notary public. Our goal is to transform a total of 300 thousand residences, of which 200 thousand on-site and 100 thousand reserve residences, in the first year. To complete the transformation in Istanbul by completing 1.5 million residences quickly. We will achieve this together with you. To date, we have transformed 3.3 million residences in 81 provinces. We have secured the life and property of millions of people. We have further strengthened the building stock in our country by producing 1.2 million houses with our TOKİ. When we look at Istanbul today, we see that 1.5 million residences, 300 thousand of which are urgent, need to be transformed. Here we are in Beykoz today. We accelerated our work on our city, as many buildings were built here without architectural and engineering services. One of the opposition leaders said: ‘Take the Istanbul deputies, get organized. Declare against urban renewal. Let me introduce it to the public,’ he said. We say that urban transformation is a supra-political issue. It’s a matter of life, it’s a matter of survival. Those who eat the bread of nationalism oppose urban transformation means not loving their nation. A person who does not care about the life of his nation and the future of our offspring cannot become a nationalist. It is that clear and simple. People of Beykoz, you did not listen to the fake nationalists, but to those who work for the nation. Hopefully, we will finish our 776 houses and 47 shops, which we have laid the foundations of, as soon as possible and hand them over to our beneficiaries.”
