What the notification does

Notification Number VI(1)/36/2015, issued by the Director of Town and Country Planning under reference Roc. Number 23490/2014/Special Cell, applies to land in Survey Numbers 355/1 and 355/2 at Vazhuthareddy Village, within the Villupuram Local Planning Authority and Municipality, Villupuram Taluk and District. It declares the 21,286.46 square metre site as a multi-storied building area for construction of educational buildings under the Tamil Nadu Multistoried and Public Building Rules, 1973, and related instructions.

The declaration does not itself state that a building plan has been approved. Its conditions must be checked when the building plans are cleared.

Who is affected

The declaration directly affects the applicant, owner, architect, structural design engineer and developer of the educational building proposed on the identified survey land. Buyers, lenders and professionals dealing with this site should check whether the required approvals, certificates, reports and undertakings have been submitted.

Main planning and approval conditions

The educational development must meet the applicable Floor Space Index, plot coverage and multi-storied building requirements. Key conditions include:

• Necessary clearances and No Objection Certificates must be obtained from the listed authorities, including the Commissioner of Town and Country Planning, Highway Department, Traffic Police Department, Fire Service Department, Airport Authority and Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board.
• Environmental impact assessment clearance must be obtained from the Ministry of Environment and Forest Department, Government of India, as required by the latest Central Government notification referred to in the document.
• The maximum building height is 24 metres, and the height between floors must not be less than 3 metres.
• The structure must be earthquake resistant and designed by a registered professional structural engineer using the National Building Code 2005.
• A structural stability affidavit must be signed by the owner, architect and structural design engineer.

Safety, access and site infrastructure

The building plans must provide ramps, accessible parking, sufficient lifts, an open emergency staircase, fire extinguishers and lightning arresters. A Fire Service Authority No Objection Certificate is required.

Suitable drainage, a sewage treatment plant, wastewater recycling certification, rainwater harvesting and solar energy arrangements are required. The applicant must also provide a detailed water supply report. Because the site abuts a National Highway, the plans must show the prescribed green strip and service road, and road widening clearance must be obtained where applicable. Culverts across any water channel must be built at the applicant's expense where necessary, with departmental approval.
