b) In one of the replies to the previous observations of the Commission, the Architect has replied that:

"……. It has been analyzed that the use of temporary material in the entire complex is causing a problem. The issue will be resolved by extending the balconies of alternate floors. Currently, the planning includes double-height balconies on alternate floors, which allows sunlight to heat up the space. As a result, people have been resorting to using temporary materials for shading. However, after implementing the proposed solution, the issue will be resolved, and people will no longer need to use temporary materials for shading…..."

Furthermore, upon reviewing the site photographs, it was noted that the outdoor air conditioner units are visible on the external facade, detracting from the visual and urban aesthetics of the area. The architect/proponents to ensure  their commitment to remove temporary extensions, as stated in their response, and to screen the outdoor air conditioning units to preserve the facade's aesthetics. This compliance will be assessed upon receiving the proposal for NOC for Completion.

Nevertheless, the Architect or proponent must ensure the proper implementation of these arrangements on-site, which will be examined during the proposal's completion stage. It is importance that all parking arrangements adhere to the relevant rules, regulations, guidelines, and other applicable requirements.

e) The added structure shall be designed to withstand weather effects and impacts from calamities like earthquakes, as it is an additional structure added to the existing superstructure. It shall be ensured it is braced firmly to the building and does not impact the safety of the superstructure.

Building plans proposal in respect of Group Housing Building on kh. no.1279, 1280, 1283, 1284, 1286/2 situated at Extended Abadi Lal Dora of Village Kapashera. (Conceptual Stage)

1. The proposal was forwarded directly by the Architect (online) for consideration by the Commission.
2. The Commission did not approve the concept of the building plans proposal at its meeting held on February 08, 2024, where specific observations were made. 
3. The revised building plan proposal received (online) at the conceptual stage was scrutinized along with the previous observations of the Commission communicated vide DUAC Conceptually Unsuitable Letter No.: 30012427004 dated February 13, 2024, and a detailed discussion was held with the Architect on Cisco Web Ex meetings who provided clarifications to the queries of the Commission. Based on the discussion held (online), and the submission made, the following observations are to be complied with: 

a) The Commission observed that unsatisfactory compliances had been given to the previous observations of the Commission communicated via DUAC Conceptually Unsuitable Letter No.: 30012427004 dated February 13, 2024.

b) While the Architect was asked to provide a comprehensive response addressing each observation of the Commission, incorporating every point, such a response was not received. It shall be ensured that each observation is followed for the review of the Commission. 

c) The proforma for development controls (DCR) indicates a permissible FAR of 200, whereas the proposed FAR is stated to be 237.37, exceeding the permissible limit. This discrepancy should be corrected to adhere to the allowable development regulations, and the submission should be revised accordingly.

d) The submission lacks essential details for the EWS block, such as detailed plans, elevations, sections, and 3D views. This absence renders the submission incomplete and unclear. It is necessary to provide these details, including plans, elevations, sections, and 3D views, for the Commission's review.

e) An inconsistency is noted in the submission; while the sections depict stilt parking, no floor plan for the stilt floor is included. This discrepancy needs to be rectified, and the corrected submission should be resubmitted for review by the Commission.

f) The turning radius for vehicular movement at the end of the ramp in the basement parking appears inadequate and incorrect. Additionally, the U-turn proposed in specific areas, with a 6.0m wide road corridor, seems insufficient for vehicle manoeuvring and should be widened to facilitate efficient movement. Accordingly, the parking plan shall be corrected, and the revised parking plan shall be submitted for the Commission's review.

g) An inconsistency has been observed in the parking details; the information in the parking table differs from that in the parking layout drawing. This discrepancy should be rectified, and a coordinated plan should be submitted for thorough review by the Commission.

h) Sustainability features shall be as per point no. 7 of the CPAA (Criterion for Project Assessment and Approval) as available on the DUAC website at www.duac.org.in.

i) All service equipment, plumbing pipes, rainwater pipes, water tanks, DG sets, DG exhaust pipes, air-conditioning units, solar panels etc. should be camouflaged appropriately (in terms of point nos. 10, 11 &12 of the CPAA (Criterion for Project Assessment and Approval) as available on the DUAC website at www.duac.org.in.

4. Overall, the submission received at the conceptual stage has discrepancies, mismatches, and non-compliance to its previous observations. The Architect is advised to address all the above Commission's observations, including those communicated via DUAC Conceptually Unsuitable Letter No. 30012427004 dated February 13, 2024.
