Department raises queries on designs
Chandigarh, October 7
The Urban Planning Department has raised some queries with regard to the designs prepared by the Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) for the proposed UT Employees’ Housing Scheme.
During a meeting, CHB officials gave the option of two designs to the Urban Planning Department. However, the department raised further questions on the designs and sought clarifications.
A CHB official said the board had given two options — a seven-storey project and a 10-storey project. The aim was to reduce the cost of the project as less land would be required for vertical construction. He said they would file response to within a few days so that after finalising designs, they could work out the prices of the flats. The CHB had floated the special housing scheme for employees in 2008. The draw of lots was held on November 4, 2010, and over 3,900 employees were successful. — TNS
