Amendment to the inclusion of certain Additional Areas in Rajapalayam Local Planning Area under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act
The Government of Tamil Nadu, through the Housing and Urban Development Department, issued G.O. Ms. No. 168, Housing and Urban Development [UD4(2)], dated 20 November 2014, to amend the areas included in the Rajapalayam Local Planning Area. It replaces the area table in a Rural Development and Local Administration Department notification dated 26 June 1974 with a revised list covering Rajapalayam Municipality and specified revenue villages.
What the notification changes
The Government of Tamil Nadu, through the Housing and Urban Development Department, issued G.O. Ms. No. 168, Housing and Urban Development [UD4(2)], dated 20 November 2014. The Governor of Tamil Nadu made the amendment under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971, after the intention to amend had previously been published.
The Housing and Urban Development Department notification substitutes a new table for the table in Rural Development and Local Administration Department Notification No. II(2)/RUL/3096/1974, published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette dated 26 June 1974.
Areas included
The substituted table identifies the Rajapalayam Local Planning Area as covering Rajapalayam Municipality and the following numbered or named revenue villages:
- 1 Vadakku Venganallur, part
- 23 Sammandapuram, part
- 24 Melpattam Karisalkulam
- 25 Kothankulam, part

- 6 Sappaniparambu, reserved forest
Who may be affected
The Housing and Urban Development Department notification is relevant to property owners, buyers and professionals dealing with land in Rajapalayam Municipality or any of the listed revenue villages. It establishes which listed areas form part of the Rajapalayam Local Planning Area under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971.
Several village entries are expressly limited to a part of the village. The notification text supplied here does not give survey numbers, maps or boundary descriptions showing which portions of those villages are covered.
