Hi there all,
The elevated Metro and particularly PMC’s
proposal for allowing construction with 4 FSI norm 500metres on both
sides of the metro throughout the 31.5 km of its route, has been the talk of
the town.
(Please
see the notice : http://epaper.indianexpress.com/303130/Indian-Express-Pune/12-July-2014#page/6/2
)
This increase to 4 FSI for a 31.5 km by 1km
swath of skyscrapers through the most congested areas of Pune is going to be a
nightmare and a life changing experience for not only the citizens staying in
the neighbourhood of the Metro route but also for all Punekars. There is no
planning for infrastructure, parks, and other amenities to cater to the
increased population who will reside here.
The elevated Metro passing through the
heavily crowded and busiest of Pune roads will reduce the road width making
travel a horrendous experience.
Let us all object to object to this
arbitrary, ill planned proposal and at least attempt to halt the ongoing
destruction of our city.
I am enclosing below a draft of a brief
letter objecting to the Elevated Metro & the 4 FSI plan. All you have to do
is to send the letter to the City Engineer:
prashant.waghmare@punecorporation.org
with a copy to the Municipal Commissioner: pmcmco@gmail.com
Don’t forget to write your name, address, phone numbers and email id. Please
ensure that your email is sent by 12 noon on the 11th August 2014.
You could also download and print the letter and send it by Speed Post or
Registered Post..
Do forward this email to your like minded
friends and get them to send too.
Thanks and warm regards..

Dear Sir,
Subject : Objections
and Suggestions in response to PMC’s Public Notice (Ref. No. 1/167 dt.11 July
2014) published in local newspapers on 12 July 2014
I am submitting herewith 'Objections and
Suggestions' as under in response to the above referred
Public Notice.
1) I object to granting of 4 FSI in
the Metro influence zone of 500 meters on both sides of the Metro corridor as
it will result in excessive increase in the number of residential and
commercial units in the area beyond its capacity and will cause serious
problems
2) I object to granting of 4 FSI as
PMC will not be able to provide necessary infrastructure and amenities as per
standards for the increased population
3) I object to the compulsion for
property owners in the Metro influence zone to consume full 4 FSI
4) I object to the imposition of
cess which is penalty on property owners who do not consume full 4 FSI
5) I object to the requirement of
minimum plot size of 0.2 hectares for property development
6) I object to the requirement that
NOC will have to be obtained from Metro SPV for any development of property in
the Metro influence zone
7) I object to the special powers
to be given to Municipal Commissioner for relaxation of building bye-laws and
rules for consumption of full limit of permissible 4 FSI
8) I object to the Public Notice
for grant of 4 FSI as final Metro alignment has not yet been decided and final
Metro influence zone has not been marked by PMC on the maps. Hence it is not possible
for me / us to assess impacts of 4 FSI in Metro influence zone and submit area
specific objections and suggestions.
9) I object to the decision to
grant 4 FSI also for future Metro corridors
10) I demand that the proposal for granting
4 FSI and modification to Development Control Rules be cancelled
Further
to the above I reserve the right to add or omit or alter any suggestion and/ or
objections at the time of the personal hearing at a date and time communicated
by you to me at least 10 days in advance.
I
request you to kindly acknowledge receipt of my objections and suggestions and
oblige.
Yours
sincerely,
