"We will also construct an underpass along the Faridabad - Noida - Ghaziabad expressway near Behlolpur. This project will come at a cost of ₹30 cr. This 600- meter long, four-lane facility is expected to reduce the distance between Faridabad and Ghaziabad."
The Board has also in principle approved floor-wise registration of Flats on plotted houses in the city. "This proposal will now be forwarded to the UP government for final approval," said Alok Tandon, Chairman and Chief Executive Ofiicer (CCEO), Noida Authority. Resident welfare associations have long been demanding that the authority should converted the leasehold property status in Noida to Freehold. While under the freehold system, an allottee has outright ownership of the property, thereby making its transfer and sale easier, the government has control over the sale or transfer of a property under the leasehold system, the owner has right to call the property his or hers only for 90 years.
The Board Decided to partly pay the power bills for those sectors which install fully automatic compost machines. "We will pay 50% in the first year and 25% in the second. This is to encourage residents to deal with their waste. We have also decided to regularize about 10% of allotted area encroached by residents in a few specific sectors after they pay a compounding fee," Singh said.
