A total of 1,248 complaints and suggestions have been received from the public regarding the Thiruvananthapuram city Corporation’s draft master plan 2040, with more than half of these coming from various builders.
The Corporation will conduct a hearing for the complainants next week, after which the master plan with the necessary changes incorporated will be finalised.
According to Corporation officials, a large number of the complaints are of a generic kind, with broad criticism of the master plan rather than having any specific grievance. One of the specific complaints raised by the builders was regarding the proposal to regulate the size of buildings depending on the width and type of roads on which the proposed constructions are located.
