Is the New Islamabad Airport Shutting Down Housing Societies?

The New Islamabad International Airport has been in the news quite a bit. People investing in housing societies near the airport have been in a flux because of rumours that the Capital Development Authority (CDA) is shutting down housing societies close to the airport.
I am here to clear out the rumours for you. The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has been working on ensuring that safety operations are not compromised. As the inauguration draws closer, these developments have picked up speed.
According to a news report shared by local dailies, the CAA has announced that 200 square yards of land around the new airport will be turned into a structure-free zone. Should this ring a bell for investors that have stakes in housing societies located very close to the airport? Not really.
As per the details shared in the news report, no housing society lies within this range. CAA officials have told new sources that all housing societies located around the airport will continue with their activities, within the limits notified by the authority.
In addition, the news report also said that seven kilometres of the area along the runway has also been declared part of the structure-free zone. Speaking about the planned third runway for the airport, the CAA said that is considering the western part of the facility as the estimated construction cost there is relatively low. Moreover, there is no housing society located on this side.
To ensure that flight operations from the New Islamabad International Airport take place smoothly and future expansions are not a problem, the CAA has begun conducting a survey. A detailed report of the survey analysis will be presented to the Prime Minister Secretariat in a couple of days

PAEC Foundation Housing Project’s problems about to end?

Located on Canal Bank Road in Lahore, PAEC Foundation Housing Project has been facing delays for many years now. The society’s management could not handover possession of property here, despite completing development work to a large extent. During 2013, there were many rumours that possession was on its way, but nothing happened. These rumours then resurfaced during 2016, but once again, no practical steps were taken to move towards possession. The real problem behind the delays was the supply of electricity. However, now there is light at the end of the tunnel. The Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) will finally supply electricity to the society, which means that possession will be granted here sooner rather than later. And what makes me believe that? WAPDA issued a demand notice to the society’s management for the supply of electricity, and the management has settled its accounts with the authority. According to a source, electricity wires have bee...
