Gurgaon: The district administration has convened a meeting with developers and representatives of residents’ welfare associations (RWAs) of several group housing societies to review complaints about non-implementation of repair measures recommended in structural audit reports of residential buildings.The meeting will be held under the chairmanship of deputy commissioner Ajay Kumar on March 17, officials from department of town and country planning (DTCP) said. Developers and representatives of RWAs were asked to attend the meeting with status reports on the action taken so far.According to DTCP, residents had alleged that repair and strengthening measures suggested in structural audits of several group housing colonies were not implemented properly.The notice, dated March 12, was sent to several real estate developers operating in the city, including DLF Universal Ltd, M3M, Raheja Developers Ltd, Signature Global Pvt Ltd, Paras Buildtech India Pvt Ltd, Central Park, Spaze Towers Pvt Ltd, Tulip Infratech Pvt Ltd and Mahindra Lifespaces Aura Pvt Ltd.Representatives of RWAs including of societies such as Antariksh Heights in Sector 84, Brisk Lumbini in Sector 109, Raheja Vedanta in Sector 108, Park Place, M3M Woodshire in Sector 107, Signature Global Solera-I in Sector 107, Paras Irene in Sector 70A, Central Park 2 Bellevue in Sector 48 and Mapsko Casabella in Sector 82 will attend the meeting among others.Structural audits are conducted to assess the condition of buildings and identify issues such as cracks, water seepage, corrosion of reinforcement, settlement or other signs of structural distress. Based on the findings, engineers recommend specific repair or strengthening measures to ensure the safety and longevity of the structures.In recent years, several housing societies in the city have raised concerns about ageing infrastructure and alleged delays by developers in carrying out repairs. Residents in some complexes reported cracks in walls, damaged plaster, water leakage and other issues, prompting RWAs to demand independent structural audits and remedial action.Officials said the meeting will bring developers and residents together to review the status of compliance and identify pending works. Authorities may also discuss timelines for implementing the recommended repair measures.The district administration is expected to seek detailed updates from both developers and RWAs and assess whether further regulatory action is required to ensure that structural safety norms are followed in group housing colonies across the city.
