What the Gazette covers
Tamil Nadu Government Gazette No. 20, Part II, Section 2 contains several independent government notifications. For property owners and buyers, the main items concern particular developments in Ambattur, Nolambur, Anna Nagar and Korattur, along with corrections to land acquisition records in Virudhunagar and Namakkal districts. These measures apply to the properties and developments identified in each notification, rather than generally changing development rules for every property.
Chennai development permissions
The Housing and Urban Development Department issued the following property-specific measures:
- G.O. Ms. No. 74, dated 2 May 2017, relaxes the road-width requirement under the Second Master Plan for Chennai Metropolitan Area, 2026. It enables planning permission for a Tamil Nadu Housing Board development at Ambattur comprising 11 residential blocks with 2,394 low-income group dwelling units and a ground-floor shop building on the listed survey lands.

- The Nolambur exemption requires the upper three floors to remain residential, premium floor space index charges for the setback-violated area, and practical demarcation of the required car parking spaces.
- G.O. (3D) No. 84, dated 2 May 2017, amends an earlier Anna Nagar regularisation notification. Premium floor space index charges must be paid for the area above the allowable floor space index of 1.50.
- G.O. (3D) No. 86, dated 3 May 2017, exempts five residential blocks containing 21 dwelling units at Annai Nagar, Korattur Village, from specified road-width and setback requirements. Required car parking spaces must be demarcated at the site.
