During the war in Karabakh Martakert was occupied by the Azerbaijani
force for a year. The mayor of Martakert Sergey Harutiunyan says half
of houses in the town were destroyed.
After the war the town was partly reconstructed but the problem of
housing was not solved. Although over this period the population
decreased three times (now the population of Martakert is 4000), 182
families are in line for apartments, 265 have applied for repair. Most
of those families are young families. According to the mayor, due to
the housing problem the rate of birth was hardly 49 in 2007.
Prime Minister Ara Harutiunyan who participated in the meeting of
the community council stated that the government will finance the
construction of two blocks of apartments in the current year, and the
Defense Army will finance the construction of a block of apartments
for army officers. The government is likely to give long-term loans
to families who wish to build a detached house.
The prime minister noted that in 2008 the town will be gasified, the
water supply system will be repaired. Recently the pipeline running
from Khotorashen to Martakert has been launched. At last the town has
running water but supply is often disrupted because of problems with
pipes, the department of information and public relations of the NKR
government reports.
