RPZ lands
4000 ha. Regional Park Zone in Navi Mumbai - unacquired
Lands categorised
Restricted areas – not required
Priority areas
Deferred areas
Different land dev models suggested to GoM
Policy approval pending with GoM
Scenario Hectic economic and investment activities
General economic boost due to NMIA NMSEZ , MISEZ – State Govt.’s decision to extend benefits Expansion of JNPT and Industrial growth in the region - DMIC
Large-scale infrastructure projects Widening of Sion-Panvel Expressway Construction of Metro Railway MTHL Construction of dedicated freight corridor Provision of new infrastructure/upgradation for NMIA
Creation of jobs in various related sectors Cargo Transport – NMIA/ Logistics Parks Container yards and CFS Innovation Park
This will bring large tracts of land under UrbanizationIf not regulated properly, this will lead to chaos
CIDCO invited proposals from Individuals, Companies, Associations, Co-operatives, State / Central Govt. agencies, Consortiums or Aggregators possessing clear titled contiguous land parcels of 500 ha. or more across Maharashtra
Offers for outright sale of land or undertaking JV/ joint dev. with CIDCO/ any other alternative model for development of the project were invited
Independent self-contained and eco-friendly human settlements with proper infrastructure facilities and amenities
CIDCO intends to develop at least one new town in each of the six revenue divisions and around 10 new towns across the State
4/9 proposals in MMR Region
3 proposals are in Raigad District
500 ha. Townships/Theme Cities/Industrial Estates
At various stages of scrutiny
Rental Housing Program
Rental Housing Programme taken up by MMRDA
CIDCO has been requested to provide infrastructure to these schemes at cost
Schemes not taking off
Issues related to provision of infrastructure, accessibility, etc.
Panvel poised to be the gateway of this new urban impetus The scenario demands strong dose of regulatory mechanism, planning inputs and infrastructure dev The disparate requirements of infrastructure can be brought under the umbrella of a nodal infrastructure development agency – IDA
The IDA created by the GoM would provide trunk infrastructure at cost
Time is ripe for appointing SPA or ADA to deal with the emerging scenario
