Chennai: Bringing a much-needed relief, the Chennai Corporation passed a resolution to introduce a single window system to facilitate sanction of building permission based on self-certification without the requirement of a completion certificate. Plot sizes up to 2,500 sq. ft. and built-up areas up to 3,500 sq. ft. for the construction of residential structures with ground or ground plus one floor will be eligible for instant registration without the requirement of a building permission. A common fee for the same will be fixed soon, according to officials.
Small buildings in Chennai not require any certificate
Meanwhile, now constructing a small shop in Chennai that is not more than 300 sq.ft has become easier as the state government has exempted commercial buildings of this size from obtaining a completion certificate. Earlier the buildings had to get completion certificate to obtain services like electricity and water connections. The announcement was made by urban development minister S Muthusamy.
Chennai metro phase 2 will be outsourced
Considering the increasing number of projects including Metro in tier-2 cities, taking over of MRTS and modernisation of bus termini in Chennai, the CMRL has decided to outsource operations and maintenance of trains and stations in Phase II network.
