Meanwhile, Urbanco said that some mixed residential units were opened for sale last year under its Staff Housing Scheme, out of which 34 units remained unsold.
Urbanco has announced sale of the remaining 34 units to its staff noting that some of its employees were not able to apply for the scheme before its expiry.
The corporation currently has over 800 eligible employees to apply for housing units.
Urbanco further claimed that housing units are issued to staff under specific policies that are regularly reviewed through its internal audit.
