I heard that the corporation will shift the omnibus stand on Avinashi Road. Two places near Codissia and Le Meridian hotel were identified but a final decision is yet to be taken. There is not enough space to enter the omnibus stand near 100 Feet Road

Yes, the government is taking this stuff pretty seriously.To speed up and inspect the work, officials from the Secretariat in Chennai visit Coimbatore often, but the corporation does not have enough vehicles to receive them. So, its has decided to buy a car worth Rs 17.5 lakh. This resolution was also passed immediately.

I found some information online that might be useful. The fourth resolution passed, was related to the expansion of the corporation limits to 257.04sqkm from 105.06sqkm. The state government announced various development schemes worth Rs 2,379 crore for Coimbatore city a few months ago, which have been started.

Yes, you heard correctly! Residents of the city may soon get 24-hour water supply. The corporation council a few days back adopted a resolution to implement the scheme at an emergency meeting. The scheme will be implemented only 60 wards to begin with.
