The meeting focused on the revenue and performance of the Building Control Directorate for the fiscal year 2023-24. It was decided that the increase would apply to scrutiny fees, penalties for unauthorized constructions, setback violations, and other fines. Additionally, fees for changes in land use and increasing the Floor Area Ratio (FAR) will also be raised.

Chairman Randhawa was briefed that these fees had not been revised since 2017. The old charges will remain in effect until June 30, 2024, after which the new charges will be implemented. The new fees will also apply to changes in land use within Zones II, IV, and V.

This move aims to update the fee structure in line with current economic conditions and to enhance the revenue generation for the Building Control Directorate.
