Illegal construction removed

Ngu Hanh Son District People's Committee Vice Chairman Huynh Cu said that Song Viet Tourism-Urban Development JSC started removing the balconies that stretch beyond the company’s land lot. Song Viet will remove all illegally planted trees by January 28 and seek permits for other illegal villas.

Song Viet was given permits to build 19 villas, covering 5,008 square metres in total. In reality, they built 20 villas that cover 6,975 square metres. They were also building 18 villas without licences. Some villas have different locations or are bigger than what were registered. There are also seven unlicensed bungalows and a 17-metres embankment that encroached on the water.

Song Viet continued the construction despite the ban and was fined VND100m (USD4,400).

Dao Dinh Vinh, vice head of The Song Danang management board, said after receiving orders from the city authorities, they stopped the construction of 18 villas and removed some illegal constructions immediately.

According to Danang Department of Construction, projects that violate construction regulations but still have suitable land registration and planning can be given permits to adjust their planning. Considering the building density factor, Song Viet must remove the trees that they have planted illegally along 50 metres of the beach.

The department has reported and is waiting for directives from the city people's committee.
