According to Leonid Pisnov, Head of Industrial, Construction and Municipal Policy Committee of Saratov regional Duma, the problem of land relationships in Saratov lies in the fact that ownership rights for the land taken by enterprises and organizations stay unregistered. Thus, these lands are excluded from the taxation system – no property tax is paid. Increasing land cost will motivate business entities to register ownership rights.
