THANE : The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) is likely to start designing Micro Development Plans (DP)
soon for each of the eight cluster stretches identified in the city for
implementing the redevelopment project to ensure a planned zone with
all amenities.
According to the plan, the DP will have to
be designed for each of the zones that will see a planned development
post implementation of the cluster project that will factor in increased
floor space index and allocation of amenities. The existing DP that was
finalized in 2003 was not designed keeping in mind the cluster project
and accordingly, before implementation of the redevelopment in any of
the areas, the planners would require a fresh DP to be redrawn keeping
in mind the planned infrastructure in specific areas and adjoining
stretches.
The TMC is presently in the final stages of
appointing a panel of experts to help them formulate an urban renewal
policy that is a mandatory aspect for implementation of the cluster
implementation. The micro DP is part of the policy and the team will be
entrusted with redrawing it, explained an official.
Currently, the TMC has floated bids for
hiring the panel of experts, who could be a mix of town planners and
architects, who would take up planning each of the selected cluster
zones.
The TMC has proposed eight clusters within
the city limits, including those at Rabodi, Mumbra, Kalwa, Kisan Nagar
and Lokmany Nagar among others. The cluster plan has been formulated to
ensure the menace of illegal structures that occupies a notable volume
of land in the city paves way for planned development. It is believed
that over 11 lakh sqm area in the city is occupied by illegal
constructions, most of which includes government land.
Officials explained the fresh DP would be
redrawn as per the urban renewal policy that would mandate the
allocation and use of all amenities required. The planning would be
easier as the designers will have lots of horizontal space for
allocation of amenities and no space would be lost to illegal structures
or encroachments as is the present situation.
“The urban renewal policy will be an
integral part for implementation of the cluster redevelopment project.
We are in the process of selecting and appointing a panel of experts who
would help scrutinize the clusters and design a development plan for
the same,” said a senior civic official.
The final decks for implementation of the Cluster Redevelopment Plan
in Thane was cleared in June 2017 after the Bombay High Court vacated
its stay after the Mumbai Corporation submitted the impact assessment.
