We Manage With Common Mind

Whatever we said during the election period, we are putting it into practice one by one. Together with the common mind, we manage Antalya together without saying you don't exist. In the last two years, the whole world has been experiencing a pandemic process. Everyone had a hard time. We experienced the biggest forest fire in the history of the Republic. Our lungs burned, we lost our lives. We tried to overcome this process with the support of the Turkish people," he said.
We Reduced VAT on Water to 1%
Expressing that Antalya is the capital of agriculture, trade and tourism, the President Muhittin Böcek“There are very serious input costs that have been reflected in our business world and our people in recent months. All our citizens were affected by this process. In particular, energy costs have increased a lot. While the monthly bill received by Antalya Water and Wastewater Administration (ASAT) in January 2021 was 22 million TL, the electricity bill in January 2022 increased to 61 million TL. VAT rates on some items have been reduced. We immediately reduced the VAT rate on our water sales from 8 percent to 1 percent. We all know where diesel prices have reached. In the transportation sector, we want both the transporter and the transporter to be satisfied. The SCT and VAT reduction provided to private yachts should also be applied to the transportation and agriculture sectors.
Konyaaltı-Varsak Rail System Project
Stating that they continue to work day and night in the name of serving Antalya from Gazipaşa to Kaş. Muhittin Böcek, said: “The Ministry of Transport is doing the Light Rail System built during the EXPO period, so they put up their full-length pictures. The elections passed, and two months later, a bill of 379 million TL was issued to the Antalya Metropolitan Municipality. While we paid our debts, we continued our investments. Now we have done all our work in order to bring the 4th Stage Rail System Project to Antalya. We are holding the project study tender for the 4th stage, which will pass in front of Kepez Municipality from Sarısu, Konyaaltı, Centenary direction, on Friday, April 15.”
We Will Implement 142 Projects

We came before you with 77 projects. In the remaining two years, we will complete 142 projects. We do not have crazy projects, we have projects for the benefit of the public. By increasing the number of our cooperatives, we give an important support. Antalya Metropolitan Municipality covers 51% of our 70 cooperatives' electricity support. Our People's Meat project attracted great interest from our people. Now we will do a study on our slaughterhouse belonging to ANET. We have solved the problem of Kırcami's 40-year zoning plan,” he said.

We are the first municipality to establish the Clean Energy Branch Directorate by working on climate change. We took Antalya's greenhouse gas inventory. We were entitled to receive our climate-friendly establishment certificate. We are making visionary studies by thinking of Antalya's 2050s.
