CDA gets active, plans to restart development work in various sectors

A number of Capital Development Authority (CDA)’s residential projects in Islamabad had been stalled due to the lack of funds, litigation issues and various other reasons. But now the civic authority has decided to resume and expedite development work in six of its stalled residential societies.

The decision to resume development work in the sectors was taken in a recent meeting presided over by CDA Chairman Mr Maroof Afzal.

Sector I-12

It was decided in the meeting that after completion of major corridors in Sector I-12, further infrastructure development would be carried out and possession would be handed over to the allottees. The CDA chairman told the meeting that the installation of signboards in Sector I-12 was in progress.

CDA Administration and Estate Member Mr Amer Ali Ahmed stated that a boundary wall would be built at a cost of Rs 10 million in order to remove encroachments in Sector I-12, and also in the buffer zone between Sectors D-12 and D-13.

Park Enclave Housing Scheme

The CDA chairman told the Engineering Wing of the authority to complete development work in Park Enclave Housing Scheme. According to a news source, the development work in the society will cost Rs 1.24 billion.

Sector I-15
Mr Afzal was told during the meeting that bidders had been prequalified to start development work in Sector I-15. Apparently, the development work in the sector would commence soon.

Sectors I-14, I-16, and D-12

The chairman told the meeting that the authority would execute the remaining development work in Sectors D-12, I-14 and I-16. Furthermore, Mr Amer Ali Ahmed said the investors affected by the layout plan in Sector I-14 had been allotted alternate plots in Sector I-12 through balloting.

With all these developments on the cards, we should expect that the issues of allottees in the mentioned sectors will be resolved soon.
