Construction of new mechanic shop in residential area Construction of new mechanic shop in residential area

2 weeks ago

The owner of an empty plot opposite to my house has decided to rent out the plot to a car mechanic. Our house is situated in a residential area in the city limits and despite us trying to reason with the owner they have decided to go ahead with the it. We are worried about the noise pollution along with the toxic fumes the vehicles will emit and the possible improper disposal of toxic waste that can impact the ground water along with the accumulation of waste over time. Another issue we will face is that the road is only wide enough for 2 cars to barely get by and it gets extremely difficult to traverse in the evenings with the multitude of cars parked on the road. What are the steps i will need to take to stop the property from being rented out?

A.Since the area is under the city limits hence you can write to the municipality objecting the start of a mechanic shop in the residential area and also the authorities should not issue the trade license for the same.
This way he will be prohibited from doing so and incase the authorities do not take any action then you can file a case in the court.

A.Dear Client,
In case of a commercial activity in a residential area, you along with the other residents can file a mass complaint to the Municipal Corporation and prevent the construction of a mechanic shop. You can also file a suit for injunction.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.
