What the approval does
G.O. Ms. No.223 of the Government of Tamil Nadu Housing and Urban Development (UD 4-2) Department, dated 13 October 2010, gives government approval to the Rasipuram Master Plan (Modified). The Governor of Tamil Nadu approved the plan after the Director of Town and Country Planning forwarded it for approval under section 28 of the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971.
The Rasipuram Local Planning Authority had approved the modified master plan through Resolution No.1148 dated 29 July 2009. An earlier government order had given consent to publish notice of the preparation of the modified plan.
Area and people affected
The Rasipuram Master Plan (Modified) applies to the Rasipuram local planning area. It is relevant to property buyers, owners, developers and professionals assessing land use or proposed development within that planning area.
The plan materials identify existing conditions and proposed development matters, including:
- Residential, commercial and industrial land uses.
- Public and semi-public uses, educational uses and agriculture.
- Ownership of land and land value.
- Water supply, drainage, sewage and solid waste management.
- Transport, traffic, parking, encroachment and pedestrian movement.
- Recreation and detailed development planning.
Development proposals and regulations
The Rasipuram Master Plan (Modified) contains proposals and implementation material covering:
- Population assessment and projected land requirements.
- Residential development and housing.
- Commercial and industrial development.
- Medical and educational institutions.
- A compost yard and burial ground.
- Road networks and an additional bus stand.
- A stadium and office complex.
- Salem to Rasipuram Road and Rasipuram to Attur Road.
- Major road intersections, including Namakkal Road and Salem Road intersections.
- Development regulations, use zones and permitted uses.
