CLARK FREEPORT -- The Capilion Corporation Pte Ltd. will build “green buildings” in its P7-billion mixed use facility project called Clark Green Frontier (CGF).
This was gleaned in the question and answer (Q&A) released by the Clark Development Corporation recently.
A lease agreement between the CDC and Singaporean firm was signed on May 8, 2014 and it will in effect for 25 years.
CGF is a commercial center ideal for business process outsourcing (BPO) offices, hotel, residential, as well as retail enterprises, the CDC stated.
The name – Clark Green Frontier --- was chosen by Capilion as its undertaking in Clark and is found in a backdrop of greenery that is far from typical urban jungle setting which is something that Clark is known for, the state-owned corporation added.
One of the reasons behind the name of the project is the construction of green buildings designed to respond to the worldwide call to protect the environment, according to CDC.
The facility is located inside a 3.8-hectare property near the Freeport’s main entrance along the M.A. Roxas Avenue.
The CDC Board of Directors had approved on February 13, 2014 a resolution declaring the CGF’s area as part of a mixed use commercial district.
The project’s location was formerly designated as an open space which could be converted into other purposes under existing laws.
The height limitation permit for CGF buildings issued by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) on November 13, 2014 set a maximum height of edifice that can be erected in the area at 52 meters above ground.
Based on its initial design, the CGF buildings will be nine-storeys high or 43.9 meters tall.
The CDC disclosed that will be within the CAAP limit and would not pose any problem to flights at the Clark International Airport.
Aside from these, the CGF buildings are designed in a manner that would complement the view from the Don Juico Avenue in Barangay Malabanias in Angeles City which runs parallel with the M.A. Roxas Avenue in Clark, the CDC claimed.
On June 4, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has issued an environmental compliance certificate (ECC) with reference code R03 1505-0223 for the project.
