Owing to the demand from councillors, the Greater Chennai Corporation plans to assess 20,000 buildings, developed on poromboke land, for property tax. It has sought a clarification from the government whether the assessment of such buildings can be carried out in various zones of the city.

At the Corporation Council meeting held on March 2, councillors demanded a property tax assessment of buildings on Poromboke land. Their argument was that many families that had been living for generations on certain categories of land, like grama nathamwere unable to get pattas.

ME Sekar, councillor of ward 89 in the Ambattur zone, said over 500 buildings in areas, like Kamarajar Nagar at Padi, had been built on poromboke land, and the residents were demanding pattas. “The residents have demanded that the Corporation assess the buildings for property tax,” he said.

The situation is more challenging in the added areas, which were merged with the city in 2011, Corporation officials say. “There are no specific guidelines for solving such issues,

Manatee County

Two large-scale development projects working their way through the Manatee County permitting process could bring nearly 10,000 new homes to land that has traditionally been used for agricultural purposes.

Neighbors are saying the projects, Taylor Ranch and East River Ranch, are too large, and too much for the rural roads to handle.

[–

On Thursday, the Manatee County Commission is set to consider approvals for Taylor Ranch with 4,500 housing units.

Taylor Ranch would be the first project approved beyond the Future Development Area Boundary (FDAB) line, which the county uses to limit urban sprawl and protect agricultural land.

The company sees room for hotels on vacant land near Routes 41, 42 in Deptford

dansa

DEPTFORD — The thriving hospitality business here may add more hotels off Route 41 near Deptford Center Road, a traffic-heavy strip that already hosts four relatively new hotels.

A Wilmington firm, SSN Hotels LLC, wants to build two hotels on land at the rear of Harmony Lane, according to information before the township’s planning board.

The location is off Route 41, or Hurffville Road, a street that currently holds four hotels.

The last official use of the partially wooded property was a storage lot for trash containers and construction vehicles and equipment, according to reports.

The hotels’ site plan was set for a planning board review on March 8, potentially with a vote on final approval. That meeting was canceled with no new date set for a hearing, according to the township.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) – The Franklin-based non-profit BrightStone is working to raise the final million dollars of a $20 million goal for its new Land of Dreams, a 144-acre campus where adults with special needs can live full-time, while learning life skills and working together.

For more than 20 years the program for adults with autism, brain injuries, and other intellectual challenges has learned computer and life skills, nutrition and exercise classes, and arts and crafts, which they create and sell to help support BrightStone’s mission.

The first phase of the Land of Dreams project opened November 2022.

Two residential homes are currently under construction.

Future plans for the campus include an equestrian center, gym, and a chapel.

On Thursday, a BrightStone student taught News4 evening anchor Tracy Kornet how to box brownies, as part of a video project to help share BrightStone’s story with the community.

The Minnesota Vikings are expected sooner than later to meet one of the hottest defensive coaches going into the NFL right now.

Minnesota hit the ground running on hiring a new defensive coordinator in the days after they dumped Ed Donatell, but then things came to a screeching halt. As it turned out, the team brass pumped the brakes for one reason only — a shot to land Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, among the rising young stars in the league’s coaching ranks.

Over the weekend, the Vikings took two big steps closer to landing their guy. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported on Saturday, February 4, that the Broncos had cut Evero loose and that an interview with his old compatriots — general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and head coach Kevin O’Connell — was imminent.
