Property Tax:
We have appealed for favourable orders and to initiate action to reduce the property tax, considering the practical difficulties of the people.
* We appealed for representation of Coimbatore Chamber in the Committees of the State Government since this will help us to represent the subjects related to the respective Committees of the Government.
* To initiate action by concrete steps to control the prices of all raw materials to save MSMEs from the present crisis. We also urged for opening of SAIL Yard in Coimbatore and to ban export of all raw materials.
* Establishment of Multi-Modal Logistics Park in 100 acres of land to be identified near Irugur, Vellalore or Chettipalayam.
* Since Coimbatore is renowned as the Textile City, we appealed to the CM for a Mega Textile Park in Coimbatore, since the Central Government has sanctioned 7 Mega Integrated Textile Regions and Apparel Parts (MITRA).

* Formation of Greater Coimbatore Tirupur Metropolitan Development Authority (CTMDA).
* Hostel for migrant labourers and creation of an industrial estate for Pump Sets, Wet Grinders, Jewellery Manufacturing and Electrical Vehicles.

They highlighted the absence of service roads in these areas. They further requested the CM to take action and instruct the concerned authorities to complete the work within the stipulated time.
