Application has been opened for housing plots in Eydhafushi, Baa Atoll.
The island council of Eydhafushi stated application will be open until February 13. The council has publicised the information application, under the revised regulations for issuing housing plots. Individuals applying for the housing plots must not own any part of a plot larger than 600 square feet, or any row houses or flats issued under a housing scheme of the administration.
President of the island council, Thalal Abdul Rahman said the application period was delayed due to complications in revising the regulations for issuing the plots. The revisions were finalized by a special committee which included 11 members.
The council says there are over 400 families in Eydhafushi in need of housing plots. Under the current scheme, 158 plots with an area of 1,400 square feet will be issued in Eydhafushi. The plots are located adjacent to the turf stadium, on the east of the reclaimed area in the island.
