What this document is
Housing and Urban Development [UD4(2)] Department, G.O. (Ms).No.183, dated 20.11.2017, is a Government order confirming the proposal to include additional areas in the Villupuram Local Planning Area. It also amends the earlier Rural Development and Local Administration Department notification published on 10th April 1974 by substituting a new table of areas.
What it changes
The Government states that Villupuram Local Planning Area had already been declared earlier. Housing and Urban Development Department, G.O.(Ms).No.163, dated 18.12.2015, had notified the Government's intention to include additional areas, and that intention was published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette and the Villupuram District Gazette.
After receiving a request from the Commissioner of Town and Country Planning (i/c), and recording that no objections or suggestions were received from the public, the Government accepted the proposal and confirmed the notification. The appended notification is to be published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette.
Who it affects
This matters to people dealing with land and property in the villages and local bodies listed in the appendix, because those places are declared to form part of the Villupuram Local Planning Area.
People likely to be affected include:
- land owners in the listed villages
- property buyers in Villupuram Taluk and Vikkiravandi Taluk areas named in the table
- developers and planning professionals working in these areas
- local bodies and officials handling planning matters in Villupuram District
