Nashik Municipal Corporation seeks state's nod for taller buildings
The Nashik Municipal Corporation
(NMC) has sent a proposal to the state government seeking to increase
the permissible height of buildings to 45 metres. At present, the
maximum height permissible is 40 metres. The proposed increase in the
height to 45 metres will accommodate 14 floors.
"Around 30-40
housing projects with 12 floors are being constructed in the city.
However, the population of the city has reached around 16 lakh and it is
increasing every day," said a senior civic body official. "Real estate
prices have increased a lot and land is becoming scarce in the city.
Hence, vertical growth of the city is necessary," he added.
