What will the funds from the resort fee be spent on?

With this money, the reconstruction of the central embankment will take place in Anapa, a square will appear in Gelendzhik, fountains will be repaired. In Sochi, new art objects and gazebos will be opened for tourists, and in Dzhubga and Nebuga children’s play areas are installed, in Hot Key – mechanical simulators.

 

In 2019, officials are going to receive at least 150 million rubles.

 

D. Bogdanov, director of the sanatorium “Knowledge”: In my opinion, the decisions about where to send the resort collection funds are not ideal. This is definitely a real step forward! All of us, including business, government agencies, and the public, are just learning how to properly develop our resorts. But in addition to infrastructure development, we must not forget about the development of skills and skills among people in the resort industry, and this is still not all good.”

 

S. Romashkin, director of the tour operator "Dolphin" believes that for the Krasnodar Territory with a budget of 240 billion rubles, this amount is insignificant "If 100 million is scattered on five cities, it will be about 20 for each." It is good that they are spent on improving the tourist infrastructure. Some mayors wanted to spend it on something invisible, like sewers. If these simulators nail information signs, tourists, passing by, will understand that their money was not wasted. In other regions and cities, where the budgets are small, for example, in Minvody or Belokurikha, 20 million is a huge amount. It is possible to make an architectural revolution with this money.”

 

In his opinion, this experiment is more suitable for small resort towns.
