The residents say the redevelopment plan of the Mulund building is suffering due to this reservation

The building is a ground-plus-three-storey structure made in 1979 and registered as co-operative housing society in 1982, that houses 16 members
The revised draft Development Plan (RDDP) 2034, which is going to be sanctioned by the state government soon, has given sleepless nights to the residents of Arun co-operative housing society in Mulund East. In the recently uploaded online DP maps, the building has been marked in green, which indicates it as an open space. To the dismay of the society members, the building does not have a pink line either, which is used to show it as a part of the Excluded Plan (EP), thus making it eligible for hearings being conducted by the deputy director of town planning. The residents say the redevelopment plan of the building is suffering due to this reservation.
1991 grouse
The building is a ground-plus-three-storey structure made in 1979 and registered as co-operative housing society in 1982, that houses 16 members. The members have previously complained that the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) had reserved their plot as an open space in the 1991 DP. The residents didn't know about this until 2004, but once they got to know, they approached BMC to remove this reservation. In response, the civic officials kept telling them they'd get a chance to raise their issues once the new DP is in place.
