The Government of Tamil Nadu, Housing and Urban Development (UD4.2) Department, issued Government Order G.O.Ms.No.100 dated 9 March 1999, declaring the entire area comprising Kulithalai Municipality as the Kulithalai local planning area. The document also records the declaration of the Kulithalai Municipal Council as the local planning authority for that area.
What the document does
Government Order G.O.Ms.No.100 dated 9 March 1999 formally declares the area comprising Kulithalai Municipality to be the Kulithalai local planning area. The declaration was made by the Governor of Tamil Nadu under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971.
The Housing and Urban Development (UD4.2) Department directed that the appended notification be published in the next issue of the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette.
Area covered
The notification identifies the covered territory by its municipal boundary rather than by listing individual villages, survey numbers or properties.
Key points are:
- The whole area comprising Kulithalai Municipality is declared as the Kulithalai local planning area.
- The document does not provide a separate schedule of survey numbers or detailed boundary descriptions.
- A property within Kulithalai Municipality therefore falls within the local planning area described in the notification.
Public notification process
Before the final declaration, the Government published its intention to notify the area in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette dated 5 August 1998. The proposal was published for general information under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971.
The Government recorded that no objection or suggestion was received from the public. It then proceeded with the final declaration.
Local planning authority
The source text also records that the Government accepted the proposal of the Special Commissioner of Town and Country Planning and declared the Kulithalai Municipal Council to be the Kulithalai local planning authority for the Kulithalai local planning area.
This identifies the municipal council as the planning authority for the notified area. The document does not set out application procedures, development conditions, charges, land use classifications or approval timelines.
Who may be affected
Government Order G.O.Ms.No.100 is relevant to property owners, buyers and professionals dealing with land or buildings within Kulithalai Municipality because it places that municipal area within a formally declared local planning area.
