6. Brief suggestions for Mumbai to be incorporated in the
"New Housing Policy for Maharashtra".
A. Government agencies should act as facilitator for speedy development
and redevelopment of private properties containing old buildings or slums by the
owners of the property / private sectors by granting incentives to private
owners with minimum FSI 4 (i. e. at par with MHADA/MCGM) or FSI required for
rehousing plus 100% more FSI whichever is more for creation of large housing
stock in Mumbai.

B. Government should permit the Property Owners to redevelop their
properties as per D.C.Regulations 33(7) or new DC Regulation without insisting
for 70% consent of Tenants/Occupants and NOC of MBR & R Board
/ SRA.

for any surplus area to be surrendered to MBR & Board/MCGM/SRA.
