The prosecutor’s office has overturned the decision of the Kiev city council to lease a land plot in Desnyanskyi district for the construction of a shopping center. This is reported by "Komersant Ukrainian" with reference to the Kyiv city prosecutor’s office on Facebook.
Earlier, the Kyiv City Council granted this land for lease without conducting mandatory land auctions, referring to the fact that the tenant had registered ownership of unauthorized premises with an area of 1,000 square meters. meters. However, the area of the transferred land plot exceeded the area of the buildings more than 20 times, which contradicts the requirements of the land legislation, which requires auctions in such cases.
The Kyiv Prosecutor’s Office filed a lawsuit in court, pointing to the violation of the land transfer procedure. The Northern Economic Court of Appeal recognized the Kyiv City Council’s decision as illegal and canceled the lease agreement. The Supreme Court confirmed this decision, finally closing the cassation proceedings in the case.
This decision means that the territorial community of Kyiv will be able to receive a fair market rent for this plot if new land tenders are held. The funds received can be used for the needs of the capital’s residents.
