Sunday, April 21, 2024 –The Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Oluyinka Olumide, said this in a statement on Saturday, April 20, in Lagos.
He stated that he led a special joint
exercise to the axis on Thursday, April 18, and Friday, April 19, based on the
directive of the state executive council.
He mentioned some of the areas covered
during the exercise to include: Alaro City, Okorisan, Igbodu, Molajoye, Shaala,
Ketu, and Epe.
Olumide said notices were also served on
estate developments such as Patriot Bay Estate, Smart City Estate, the Legend
and Hilton Royal Garden.
Others are Greenland Estate, Legacy City,
Isinmi Lagos, Dominion City, Topview Estate, and Ibi Alafia, among others.
He pointed out that erring estate
developers were requested to visit relevant authorities to perfect their
documents.
According to him, under no circumstances
should any developer go ahead to start the development of estates without
obtaining layout approval, planning permit, and fencing permit as may be
required.
The commissioner added that the requirements
were necessary to ensure the attainment of an organised, livable and
sustainable built environment.
Olumide explained that layout approval was
required for proper arrangement of the estate to give room for appropriate
services and infrastructure, while the planning permit addressed the planning
requirements on individual plots in the estate.
