Unfortunately, no detail about the time frame. This is still worth noting tho..

The Lagos State Government has approved over 1,427 development permits out of 1,840 applications it received.

This is a significant improvement in the time frame for the evaluation of Physical Planning technical reports and the granting of development permits.

The state Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Mr Toyin Ayinde, said in his office that there have been improvement in the time frame for granting development permits, representing 87 per cent unlike what happened in the past.

He said the new time frame is an average of about four months unlike before when people wait endlessly before they got their approvals.

On Abandoned Projects

He raised the alarm over the high rate of abandoned building projects in the state and its security implications at the last count, adding that the figure rose to about 417, which he said, was unacceptable. The commissioner, however, said government’s efforts were yielding results as 15 developers were returned on site at the Oniru Estate in Victoria Island.
