Draft Development Plan 2014 - 2034

<$BlogItemFeedLinks$>


Word of CAUTION to Housing Societies going for Redevelopment

There have been recently appearing Advertisements in some of the leading newspapers for re-development which is ill timed.

There is utter confusion among the Architects and Developers about the overall implication of the proposed Development Plan 2034 they are themselves not sure whats in store from FSI ranging from 3.5 to 8. You can also see new statement of The Chief Minister and MCGM in the newspapers over the issue.

MCGM have published Notification on 25th February 2015 titled

Revision of Development Plans of Greater Mumbai - Publication of Draft Revised Development Plan 2034 & Draft Development Control Regulation 2034 for Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai.

The notification has given 60 days time inviting SUGGESTIONS and/or OBJECTIONS from the members of the public in respect of the said Draft Development Plans of Greater Mumbai (2034) before publication of this notice in the official Government Gazette.

The last date for submitting objection is 24th April 2015 and the MCGM office is already flooded with such objections. Under the current scenario it may take 6 months to a year for clarity as to WHAT IS REALLY GOING TO HAPPEN?

There is utter confusion among the Office Bearers and Members too, where tenders have already been floated and are in the final stage of negotiation with words of 5, 6.5 and 8 FSI floating around against 2.70 earlier leading to fights, doubts and suspicion in meetings. Some of the areas under 5 to 8 FSI are in air funnel zone where such FSI want be practically usable.

Under the above circumstances; What projections can be expected from PMC, What offer can be expected from the developer and What the Office Bearers and members plan to negotiate?


Office Bearers and Members are suggested to hold on the process until there is further clarity on the issue so that transparent and clear re-development process can be adhered to for convenience of both the Managing Committee and the Members. Kindly ensure that your plot is not affected in any way as per the new proposed DP.
