About plans to change the emphasis in landscaping the city said on the website of the Kyiv City Council.
"We understand that next year, unfortunately, will not be economically easier than 2022, so our task is to make the greening of the city more sustainable. This means reduced mechanical maintenance, fuel usage and human resources. At the same time, the environmental component must grow. Carefully following the best European practices of urban greening, we, in particular, plan to scale up the use of perennial plants," says Oleksandr Vozniy, head of the Department of Ecology and Natural Resources of the KMDA.
Municipal enterprises involved in the maintenance of green spaces have already received the relevant orders and are preparing to implement new practices. For example, in the spring of 2023, pilot projects using decorative grasses and grasses, which require significantly less resources for maintenance, will appear in some areas where lawn maintenance is not appropriate. This will primarily apply to distribution lanes and areas along highways.
