Along with the history and nature of the fair, from the place of fire to the international fair, the vision that will unite the public university that Behçet Uz dreamed of with today's information society was taken as basis. Ecological sensitive areas were determined. Analyzes were made until the animal species stayed overnight. This area has been marked to ensure that attention is paid to this area in any future construction or activities. Green corridors have been increased. We transfer all reports to our council members. We limited the 27 thousand square meters of the existing halls to 12 thousand square meters. We are gaining more than half of the area on the ground as green space for the fair. We protect proprietary structures. We process the issues previously included in the words and reports into the plan notes. Again, we put the management and operating model that did not exist before in the plan notes. The public had sensitivities about the large number of people entering and leaving the fair at once, and the carrying capacity. Both these and the way and possibility of the activities entered into the provisions of the plan note. The conservation development plan prepared by our municipality includes new, different plan notes about the life of Kültürpark while preserving its history and nature. These are important and valuable elements for the survival and development of the fair. It is also very important that the fair is included in the plan notes as an important axis in combining the whole green texture of the city. "
