An inter-agency commission has been established to facilitate ongoing infrastructure projects under the "Government City" construction project in Tbilisi.
The commission will be headed by the Prime Minister himself, with the Chairman of Parliament and the Minister of Infrastructure serving as deputy chairmen. The commission also includes the Ministers of Foreign Affairs; Internally Displaced Persons from the Occupied Territories, Labor, Health and Social Affairs; Economy; Culture; Environmental Protection and Agriculture; and Education, Science and Youth.
Additional commission members include the Head of the Government Administration, Head of the Special State Protection Service, Mayor of Tbilisi, Head of the Government Efficiency Department of the Government Administration, and Executive Director of the Municipal Development Fund. The representative of the Fund will act as the secretary of the commission.
One of the commission's primary functions will be determining project priorities and construction sequencing for the "Government City." Furthermore, the commission is tasked with approving project selections and design solutions, including aesthetic choices. When necessary, it can resolve issues arising during implementation and issue recommendations regarding contract modifications for public procurements.
The commission will have the right to request project-related information and documentation from administrative bodies, prepare conclusions and recommendations, invite representatives of ministries, agencies, and organizations to meetings, and establish working groups to study specific matters.
The "Government City" project is planned in Tbilisi's Chugureti district, on Gedevanishvili Street, on the site of the former "Arsenal Mountain." In January 2026, the Municipal Development Fund announced a tender valued at an estimated 4.46 million GEL to prepare a master plan and sketch projects for the development.
According to the original project concept, the "Government City" is intended to house the Parliament, Government Administration, ministries, Tbilisi City Hall, and the Special State Protection Service. Beyond administrative buildings, the site's master plan must include transport, parking, recreational, and green infrastructure.
However, the 4.46 million GEL tender for the master plan and sketch projects ultimately failed. According to procurement documents, the evaluation committee deemed it necessary to revise the terms of the technical specifications.
The concept of a "Government City" was first announced by the government in 2017. Under the original plan, it was to be built in Ortachala, but that project was dropped from the agenda in 2019. At the end of last year, it was revealed that the new location would be in Chugureti, on the former "Arsenal Mountain" territory.
