Separately, the deputies adopted a resolution on additional payments to employees in the education and culture sectors, specifically to staff at schools, cultural institutions, and other publicly funded organizations.
The session also considered amendments to the city budget and the budget forecast for the Uzhhorod City Territorial Community for 2027–2029.
Other issues included funding for major repairs and municipal facilities, the situation in the field of urban transportation, as well as land management, privatization, and the leasing of land plots.
The deputies supported some of the proposals; certain issues require further refinement and may be returned to the city council for consideration during future sessions.
