The number of building permits granted rose in Tuusula
Last year, Tuusula municipal building control granted building permits and received notifications of measures for approximately 11 per cent more projects than in the previous year. Permits were granted for a total of 175 dwellings, which is more than three times the number granted in the previous year. The number of completed dwellings was significantly lower than in the previous year. However, the municipality estimates that a new upturn in residential construction is already on the horizon.
The total number of building permits granted and notifications received by Tuusula Building Control last year was 371, compared to 335 the previous year. Permits were granted for a total area of 84,544 square metres (kem2).
Last year, permits were granted for the construction of a total of 175 dwellings. A year earlier, 47 dwellings were granted permits, meaning that the number has increased several times over. The increase is primarily due to permits granted for the construction of apartment buildings. The permits granted for apartment buildings covered 79 flats, whereas no permits for apartment buildings were granted the previous year.
The situation was almost identical for terraced and semi-detached houses. Last year, only one permit was granted, but this year permits were granted for the construction of 22 houses.
The number of permits granted for the construction of detached houses also increased significantly; last year, 73 permits were granted, which is almost 60 per cent more than in the previous year.
Last year, almost as much floor space approved by the building control authorities was completed in Tuusula as in the previous year. The total was 104,560 square metres, compared to 110,024 square metres in the previous year. The number of completed buildings was 133, compared to 297 the previous year. A total of 316 dwellings were completed last year, compared to 875 the year before.
