Variations to the Approved Master Plan for the Cuddalore Local Planning Area, Variations to the Approved Master Plan for the Thanjavur Local Planning Area, Variations to the Approved Master Plan for the Coimbatore Local Planning Area

What this gazette page does

The Tamil Nadu Government Gazette, Part VI, Section 1, dated 8 February 2017, carries three planning notifications issued by the Cuddalore Local Planning Authority, the Thanjavur Local Planning Authority and the Coimbatore Local Planning Authority. Each notification makes a variation to an already approved master plan under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971.

For a property buyer or owner, the practical effect is that the official land use classification is changed for specific places and survey numbers named in the notifications.

Who is affected

These notifications mainly affect:

• owners of land in the listed wards, villages and survey fields
• buyers checking whether a site is residential, agricultural, industrial, public or road affected
• planners, surveyors and document writers who rely on master plan zoning entries

If your land is not one of the places or survey numbers listed, these particular variations may not affect you.

Cuddalore Local Planning Authority variation

The Cuddalore Local Planning Authority notification, with reference to Government Order G.O.(2D) No.154, Housing and Urban Development UD4(1) Department, dated 30th November 2016, changes zoning entries in the Cuddalore master plan.

Key changes published are:

• under Cuddalore Town, Mixed Residential Use Zone, Ward No.5, the expression 1898/1A3B, 1909/1C, 1910/2D and 1910/3B is substituted
• under Cuddalore Town, Public and Semi Public Use Zone, Ward No.5, the same expression is inserted

This shows that the listed survey references are moved in the zoning schedule between the two land use headings.
