According to Bangkok government Chadchart Sittipunt, the beleaguered Ashton Asoke property will not be destroyed, but its engineer had re-apply for a building enable within 30 days.
At a press conference on legal enforcement on Thursday andnbsp, Mr. Chadchart, along with his deputy Wisanu Sapsompol and Surat Tirakul, the director of building control for the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration( BMA ), presented potential solutions to the already-completed luxury condo.
This was the result of the Supreme Administrative Court’s retroactive invalidation of its development permit next week.
The user’s failing to secure a typical 12m-wide entry to the property was the cause of the ruling.
The Watthana area office will receive the standard construction permit withdrawal notice, according to Mr. Chadchart, from the BMA on Friday. The notice will then be delivered to the job engineer, Ananda MF Asia Asoke Co., per the court’s instructions. The business can then ask for the Ashton Asoke condo’s new design force.
The request must be submitted by the company within 30 days, though the date may get extended by up to 120 days.
Due to the six-day trip, which ended on Wednesday, Mr. Chadchart claimed that the BMA had not been in contact with Ananda.
The government insisted that the construction permit had been given strict adherence to relevant regulations by the BMA. The organization had met all implementation requirements, so the approval was given.
He added that there was no need to demolish the Ashton Asoke villas and that the residents were free to stay in the structure.
The property’s main entrance connecting to Asok Montri Road, which is located on property rented from the Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand( MRTA ), is unrelated to the court decision, he claimed.
Additionally, given easy access to the property for flames vehicles in case of an emergency, the decision has nothing to do with any worries about the condo’s protection. The government added that the condominium is also not vulnerable to risks that may put it at risk of collapsing.
The BMA do check to see if the 50-story apartments could construct a different entrance that meets the necessary width using either Sukhumvit Soi 19 or 21.
According to the law, the entry must not only be at least 12 meters wide, but it must also get connected to a common route that is no wider than 18 meters.
Representatives will determine whether either soi was large enough, according to Mr. Chadchart. The project programmer will need to cover the costs if a fresh entrance needs to be built, he continued.
The BMA is establishing a board to look into the agencies that were responsible for issuing the building permit and other permits related to the condominium project.
The Ashton Asoke villas residents, according to Kulchalika Rungwara, 36, were unaware that the project was involved in a legal debate over the gate.
She claimed that she and the other tenants were not informed of the legal position by the engineer. She intends to file a claim for damages against the business.
