Belapur: With hearings for objections and suggestions for the pilot project of Navi Mumbai Airport Influence Notified Area (NAINA) set to be held from November 27, the concept has evoked interest and even earned appreciation from none other than the chief of the smart city project in the Narendra Modi government. According to sources, “The in charge of smart city has appreciated the concept of NAINA and wants the model to be replicated in other parts of the country.”
Cidco has passed a board resolution for development of NAINA area and has submitted interim development plan for the region comprising of 23 villages. The hearing on suggestions and objections will be held on November 27, 28 and 29 at the NAINA office in Belapur.
Developers from the region had submitted their observation for the draft interim development plan and during the hearing want to make a detailed presentation of the issues faced by them. Elaborating on the plan, sources said, “NAINA is nothing but a smart city scheme. We plan to develop the area into region of the 21st century. If people come together and have minimum 10 hectare of land, then we have an incentive scheme wherein if they surrender 40% of their land to Cidco, they will get FSI of 1.7 for development against the presently available 0.1 FSI.” In addition, the sources said, “Cidco will be getting all the environmental clearances for them and develop infrastructure in the area.”
The state government had appointed Cidco as special planning authority (SPA) for NAINA, which is in the 25 km radius area of Navi Mumbai airport. Cidco was also entrusted with the responsibility of draft interim development plan with corresponding control regulations. Accordingly, Cidco has prepared a pilot project of 23 villages. Any developer who has to start construction work in the NAINA region have to take permission from Cidco to start the project unlike the practise earlier, wherein it sought permission from local bodies.
Meanwhile, developers want early decisions on NAINA. Harish Chheda, Navi Mumbai-based developer, however, feels the government should fast track NAINA development. “There is a need for Cidco and the state government to fast track NAINA development. Cidco was, till now, focused on airport development, but they should also cater to other sectors which demand attention.”
