The State Institution "Department of Land Relations of the Akimat of Kostanay" is a structural subdivision of the akimat of the regional center and implements the state policy in the field of land relations regulation.
The full-time staff of the Department is 8 civil servants. There are also 13 employees who work under an employment contract.
One of the important activities of the Department, in accordance with the norms of Article 14-1 of the Land Code, is the preparation of proposals and draft decisions of the local executive body on the provision of land and changing their intended purpose.
In 2025, 1,647 applications for the provision of land plots were considered. 557 of them were positively reviewed, including 75 for residential facilities on a total area of 14.5 hectares, and 246 for commercial facilities on a total area of 48.8 hectares.
The Department is working on auctions for the sale of land use rights to land plots in accordance with the requirements of article 48 of the Land Code.
Over the past three years, the number of plots sold through the auction was:
2023 – 20 plots worth 201.5 million tenge were sold;
2024 – 4 plots were sold for the amount of 9.0 million tenge;
2025 – 5 plots were sold for the amount of 85.2 million tenge.
Article 65 of the Land Code regulates the obligations of land users and land owners for the proper development and use of land.
The implementation of this provision of the Code implies another area of the Department's work – the identification of unused land and constant monitoring of the fulfillment of the terms of lease and sale agreements of land, namely the fulfillment of obligations of land users and owners of land for their targeted and rational use.
Thus, work in this area is carried out on an ongoing basis in cooperation with the Russian State Institution "Department for Land Resource Managementin Kostanay region of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Kazakhstan".
Based on the results of the work carried out for the period of 2025, materials on 48 land plots with a total area of 27.6 hectares were identified and sent to the Russian State Institution "Department of Land Management in Kostanay region" for inspections on compliance with the current legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Violations have been confirmed in 35 sites, 29 land users have been brought to administrative responsibility in the form of fines in the amount of 3.9 million tenge, of which 2.8 million tenge has been fully recovered to the state revenue.
Also, in order to improve and maintain the visually favorable environment of the regional center, work is being carried out on an ongoing basis with respect to non-stationary retail facilities, including bus shelters.
Chaotically located shopping pavilions and kiosks significantly worsen the appearance of the regional center. To bring the shopping pavilions to their proper appearance, on the recommendation of the local executive body, the owners modernize them.
Illegally installed pavilions and kiosks are being dismantled and moved to the city's specialized parking lot.
According to the norms of Article 84 of the Land Code, work is underway to forcibly alienate land for state needs.
Over the past three years, 47 land plots have been seized for public use in Kostanay for the implementation of road improvement and reconstruction projects.
