Each unit will be completely fitted with sanitary facilities, as well as standard black tanks. Each would be painted before it is handed over to the home owners. There are plans to have utility services available in time for when the lucky people take up residence in their new homes. Authorities are planning to hand over the houses in November.
The housing scheme would also be fitted with a recreational facility and playground.
