The "Larende Shops Lottery" program was held within the scope of the Büyük Larende Transformation Project, which was implemented in cooperation with Konya Metropolitan Municipality and Meram Municipality.
“TRANSFORMATION WILL BE ACHIEVED WITH AN APPLICATION THAT HAS FEW EXAMPLES IN TURKEY”
Stating that with the special assistance of Konya Metropolitan Municipality, a transformation will be achieved in the Larende region and the tradesmen will have new shops, with an application that has very few examples not only in Konya but also in Turkey, Mayor Kavuş continued as follows: “What happened in Larende and Şükran Change is an expression of the respect and gratitude of each individual to this city, including its tradesmen, citizens and administrators, and is the manifestation of the desire for development, modernity and comfort of each individual of this city. For all these reasons, the draws drawn here today are not an ordinary stage of an ordinary investment, but a manifesto that explains itself in all these beauties. I wish our tradesmen good and fruitful business. “I would like to express my gratitude to everyone who showed support and made efforts, including our Metropolitan Mayor.”
ANGI: “I THANK THOSE WHO CONTRIBUTED”
AK Party Konya Provincial Chairman Hasan Angı thanked those who contributed to the study and said, “The people of this city are walking together with the city administrations to prepare this city for the future. We were very happy that our Mayor Uğur was nominated again as the Metropolitan Mayor candidate for the new term by our President yesterday. We met again two years ago. The efforts made by our Metropolitan Mayor and his team to renew that region; In addition, the cooperation of our Mayor of Meram with you in order to manage a process with his team has reached its final point, although it was difficult at times. "As a person of this city, I would like to thank everyone who contributed," he said.
“WE ARE PLACING A SIGNATURE BEHIND KONYA'S ANCIENT HISTORY WITH OUR MERAM MUNICIPALITY ON LARENDE STREET”
Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay started his speech by stating that Konya is an ancient city that served as the capital of the Seljuks for 200 years and that they live in a city that was the Seljuk Darü'l-Mülkü.
Stating that dozens of architectural works in Konya have accompanied them to this day as the title deeds of Anatolia, as the seals of Anatolia, Mayor Altay continued as follows:
“However, unfortunately, we also have some historical artifacts that we cannot protect. That's why I attach great importance to the Larende transformation. Hopefully, after the shops are moved, we plan to reveal the Castle walls and put a signature worthy of Konya's ancient history on Larende Street together with Meram Municipality. The name of this project is Darü'l-Mülk revival project. Because the Seljuks refer to their capital as Darü'l-Mülk. We started with Mevlana Bazaar and Gold Bazaar to revitalize Darü'l-Mülk. Alhamdulillah, it has turned into a very important center that is envied by those who visit it. Afterwards, facade rehabilitation works on Alaaddin Street, Stone Building Culture and Arts, Warehouse No-4. We have completed four jobs at 20 different locations. Our work continues in the square houses. We deliver shops in Larende. "Our Meram Municipality continues its operations in Şükran."
THE PROCESS HAS BEEN COMPLETED WITH ONE HUNDRED PERCENT AGREEMENT
Mayor Altay noted that upon completion of the works, visitors to Konya will have a place where they can see the historical texture, where trade is lively, and where Konya residents will better understand what they live in this city, and said, “One of the most important of these works for us was the Larende Street Urban Transformation. Alhamdulillah, we are about to complete the process today with almost a hundred percent agreement with our tradesmen. The shops are about to be completed. We will deliver the place to you by the end of the month. We want you to complete the deficiencies and start your activities there by the end of February. "Afterwards, by carrying out the demolition in the areas where we have expropriated, we will strive to complete the great transformation in Larende and to reveal the value we dreamed of and tried to bring to Konya in our minds regarding the city walls," he said.
“WE THANK YOU ENDLESSLY FOR TRUSTING US”
Mayor Altay emphasized that they did these difficult works together with the people of Konya and said, “We did this with one hundred percent agreement in Mevlana Çarşı and Altın Çarşı. We continue on our way with the same agreement here. We thank you immensely for trusting us. We have strived to be worthy of your trust and prepared the beautiful workplaces you see for you. May God grant you abundant and fruitful earnings. On Larende Street in Konya, there is an area where people can find whatever they want, especially construction materials. I would like to express this to our citizens: It is now a new place where you can find what you are looking for. Because all of our tradesmen will continue to work in the same sectors in that region. "Our tradesmen will continue their services in a beautiful area right across from our City Hospital," he said.
“WITH YOUR SUPPORT, WE WILL TRY TO BE DUE TO KONYA IN THE NEXT 5 YEARS”
Mayor Altay also mentioned the works carried out by the Metropolitan Municipality in the city center regarding the 4-bridge intersection, Necmettin Erbakan Street, Akyokuş Pavilion and Pavilion arrangement, the transportation of the ammunition depot, and the transportation of the Heavy Maintenance Factories, and said, "We continue our services completely. Our work is in front of us, the people of Konya are behind us. We strive day and night. Hopefully, with your support, we will complete the works together that will be worthy of Konya and build the future of Konya in the next 5 years. We hope that the Great Larende Transformation will be beneficial to our city. He concluded his speech by saying, "I would like to thank our Mayor of Meram and everyone who contributed."
“OUR MANAGERS ARE FIGHTING HARD TO GET KONYA THE RESPONSE IT DESERVES”
AK Party Konya Deputy Latif Selvi also pointed out that transformation processes are very important and said, “If you cannot say new things in history other than what you have achieved, your places will turn into abandoned areas and your societies will turn into societies left behind. If you can present the ancient knowledge to the needs of the day with a modern interpretation, then you will realize the transformation and go ahead of your peers with your historical knowledge. "If the weight of Konya creates a response far beyond its population, our local administrators and the actors of our city have a very important contribution to this," he said.
Expressing that they are proud of the duty of the World Union of Municipalities carried out by Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay, Selvi thanked Mayor Altay for his work and said:
“Today, our administrators are fighting a great struggle to reveal the experiences of this ancient city and to interpret it with today, so that Konya gets the reward it deserves in the modern world. The transformation we are watching is the result of this. At this point, I would like to thank our Metropolitan Mayor, our district mayor, the actors of the city and you, my brothers who are engaged in trade, my brothers who will serve, trade and generate profit for our country.”
Following the speeches, a draw was held for the tradesmen who were eligible for the Büyük Larende Transformation Project.
