CHANDIGARH: The MC general house Monday approved two major revenue-generating agenda items, namely the terms and conditions for the Manimajra housing scheme and 53 new advertisement sites/unipoles for the civic body. The civic authority will now send the minutes of the meeting to the Chandigarh administration, and after its approval, MC will set the ball rolling for the project.
The Manimajra project will cover over 7.5 acres of land, spread across five different chunks in pocket number 6. The allotment of land can be done either jointly or by one person to ensure the project’s success. All administrative, legal, financial, and engineering aspects concerning this housing project were considered while finalising the terms and conditions.
With no permission for any kind of fragmentation or amalgamation of any site or building, the MC clarified that construction shall be exactly as per the zoning plan, and no other activity shall be permitted in the dwelling units/flats. tnn
On the other hand, the general house also discussed and approved the agenda related to the 53 new advertisement sites/unipole locations, which the Urban Planning department recently earmarked.
With the MC already having 22 such sites and unipoles, the MC has prepared combined detailed terms and conditions for 75 (newly approved 53 and old 22) advertisement sites/unipoles. These unipoles have been divided into three different zones, with 25 advertisement sites/unipoles in each zone.
As the agenda is approved, the tender will now be floated accordingly. As per the financial estimate, the MC planned to earn over rupees 12 crore by auctioning these advertisement sites/unipole locations annually, with a clause of a 10% annual increase.
