YCDC greenlights 266 construction permits, issues BCCs

Between 1 and 27 December, the Yangon City Development Committee approved 266 construction permits within the Yangon City municipal area. Additionally, the committee has issued 70 building completion certificates and forwarded a list of 183 buildings currently under construction application to the Yangon Electricity Supply Corporation (YESC).
To be able to grant construction permits, the committee has already sent recommendation letters to various departments, including the Fire Services Department, Engineering Department (Water and Sanitation), Urban Land Management Department, Engineering Department (Roads and Bridges), and Urban Planning Department.
When applying for building permits, licensed contractors and landowners must collaborate with the YESC to adhere to standard operating procedures for electricity. Within this week, the YESC will make a meeting inviting contractors to arrange for electricity supply for the buildings that have already obtained Building Completion Certificates (BCC). — TWA/NT
