According to the Palike, the BBMP One centres may issue building plans for structures on 30’ x 40’ and 40’ x 60’ sites in the city. The proposal may also include approval of plans for structures on 50’ x 80’ sites. Palike officials state that the citizens who want building plans approved will be given a pre-determined set of norms that will include the setback and other technicalities involved.
The Palike may also go one step further and provide an option for the people to choose from a BBMP-approved list of more than a 100 architects to design their houses without violating building by-laws.“We will display the norms on the BBMP website for citizens to adhere and ensure that their architects build it within that constraint,” said a Palike official.
On the confusion that may arise because of the name being similar to Bangalore One, the BBMP official said: “We may also include the existing Palike help centres and remodel them in such a manner that it would be placed strategically in the City. There will be no overlapping of services as BBMP One will only concentrate on the core Palike services.”
