Gurugram: Builder seeks approval for phase-wise redevelopment

Chintels Paradiso's builder has submitted an application with the department of town and country planning to redevelop the society in phases. Directorate of Town and Country Planning (DTCP - headquarters) is expected to send a report to the enforcement wing of the department in Gurgaon soon. If accepted, the builder will be able to reconstruct the towers declared unsafe at the Sector 109 society in one phase and repair the ones considered habitable in another. Of the nine towers at Paradiso, six have been declared unsafe by the district administration. Two others were also declared unsafe by Central Building Research Institute (CBRI), the organisation that the builder independently brought in to carry out structural audits, but these were not officially declared unfit for habitation. According to the builder, this approach will expedite reconstruction of unsafe towers. Homebuyers are closely following the process as phase-wise development could affect reconstruction and repair timelines. For homebuyers of the towers considered unsafe who opted for reconstruction, it could mean that they get their flats sooner. Residents of habitable towers are eager to see if there are any major changes in layout, and if there are infrastructural upgrades, would they require homebuyers' consent. "We've been living in uncertainty for far too long. The phasing process might be a step forward, but our main concern is the timeline for redevelopment and whether it will truly address the safety issues," said a resident of one of the habitable towers at Chintels Paradiso.
