The civic body resolved to accord approval to e-tender/RFP (request for proposal) for the allotment of 39 parking sites falling under its jurisdiction on payment of a monthly license fee in advance.

“There are approximately 150 parking sites in the NDMC area. Out of these, 99 parking sites are being managed/maintained by Neptune India, Six parking sites are given to different agencies on a bhagidari basis. About 39 parking sites are being managed by the NDMC through its staff at different locations. These parking sites are not appropriately managed, therefore these are to be auctioned for nine months which is extendable for a further three months,” the civic body said.
