Among various issues discussed at the meeting of District Heritage Committee chaired by Deputy Commissioner K.V. Rajendra, here on Wednesday, a proposal was submitted seeking approval from the committee for renovating the building of Mysore City Corporation, which is one of the oldest buildings of the city and listed among the important heritage structures here.
As plastering on the walls, roof and pillars in the building was flaking, the committee’s nod was sought for taking up urgent repair works since it is a heritage structure. The entire roof of the building has to be waterproofed because of the dampening of the walls.
About 10 proposals were discussed at the meeting. It also discussed other issues pertaining to heritage buildings of Mysuru.
The clock tower or the ‘dodda gadiyara’ that was undergoing renovation, was also discussed.
