According to a post by Mayor Gergely Karácsony on his Facebook page, the city aims to transform the area into a “21st-century, green, new district” that is car-free, affordable and has a positive energy balance.
Karácsony noted that current legal frameworks present several obstacles to realizing this vision.
“That is why we are exercising the right we inherited from the Arab investors and asking the government to draft a separate Rákosrendező law,” he said.
He added that outdated regulations covering requirements such as minimum parking spaces, rainwater drainage, and the installation of solar panels need to be revised to support development.
