BMC amends land rules for textile units

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has proposed draft amendment to the existing Development Control Regulations rules pertaining to the development and redevelopment of open land and built-up area of sick and/or closed cotton textile mills. The revised draft rules envisage land up to and inclusive of five hectares, wherein 33 per cent is to be earmarked for open space, 27 per cent for public housing, and 40 per cent for residential or commercial use.

Previously the entire land was to be divided one-third each for open space, for public housing, and for residential and commercial use. For areas between five hectares and 10 hectares, BMC has proposed 33 per cent for open space, 34 per cent for public housing, and 33 per cent for residential or commercial use. For land more than 10 hectares, 33 per cent will be for open space, 37 per cent for public housing and 30 per cent for residential or commercial use.

The owner of the land will be entitled to floor space index (FSI) up to 2 as per the draft regulations 30(A) (1) and (4), excluding area of the notional plot of residential buildings, chawls located on the lands of cotton textile mills, if any.
