Colonies by pvt developers to be transferred to Gurgaon MC

Haryana government has approved transfer of licenced colonies developed by private builders in Gurgaon to the district's municipal corporation for maintenance.
Since services like roads, water supply, sewerage and open spaces in these colonies have been operational satisfactorily for more than five years, the concerned developers have been directed to transfer these colonies to Gurgaon Municipal Corporation on 'as is where is basis', a spokesperson of state Town and Country Planning Department said here.
The spokesperson said while Palam Vihar and Sushant Lok (phase I) are being developed by Ansal Properties and Infrastructure, DLF (phase I-III) is being developed by DLF Universal Limited.

A total of 2,872.40 acre of plotted area would be transferred to the civic agency. This included 604.20 acre in sector 53, 27, 43, 28 and 17 of Sushant Lok Phase-I, 633.27 acre in sector 3,2 and 1 of Palam Vihar and 1634.93 acre in sector 24, 25, 25A, 26A and 28 in DLF Phase I to III, the official said.
The spokesperson said that as per the agreement, the private developer is responsible for the maintenance and up-keep of roads, open spaces, public parks and public health services for a period of five years from the date of issue of completion certificate following which it would be handed over to the MC.

However, since the grant of completion certificate in these colonies is still pending due to non-completion of community and commercial sites, the transfer would be allowed subject to the condition that the developers complete the remaining work in compliance of terms and conditions of the license, the official said.
