Growth of investments directly affects not only the increase in tax revenues to the municipal budget, creation of new jobs, but also the level and quality of life of residents. Therefore, attracting investment in the city territory is one of the strategic tasks of local government. These can be investments not only in the economy, but also in the social sphere, development of residential construction, communal infrastructure, and transport network.
