Procedures relaxed to obtain building plan approval

Staff Reporter

Those seeking plan approvals can submit the drawing through the Corporation website


COIMBATORE: The Coimbatore Corporation has eased procedures to obtain building plan approval.

A release said the civic body had initiated the steps to avoid delay in granting clearance, provide a fee payment centre, eliminate the role of brokers and provide easy approval.

Those seeking plan approvals could submit the drawing through the Corporation website. At present, the civic body was doing the same with approved draughtsmen.

Once the plan was checked, the civic body would send e-mail to the person concerned asking him or her to remit the fee at the bank or branch mentioned.

And after the Town Planning section obtained the application form, it would process the same at the quickest possible time and send the approval through registered post. The civic body proposed to establish a Plan Preparation Cell to assist those seeking help in plan preparation.

The Cell would function at the Commissionerate from January 1, 2011. It asked all members of the society to avail themselves of the services.
