Ms. No. 218 dated 13 October 2010, approving the master plan for the Vadakku Valliyur Local Planning Area in Tirunelveli District.

What the document does
G.O. Ms. No. 218 dated 13 October 2010, issued by the Government of Tamil Nadu, Housing and Urban Development (UD 4 (2)) Department, approves the master plan for the Vadakku Valliyur Local Planning Area. The approval was granted under section 28 of the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971, following a proposal forwarded by the Director of Town and Country Planning.
The government also directed that a notification of the approval be published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette. The Director of Town and Country Planning was asked to ensure republication in the manner prescribed by the Master Plan (Preparation, Publication and Sanction) Rules.
Area and planning authority covered
The Vadakku Valliyur Master Plan applies to the Vadakku Valliyur Local Planning Area in Tirunelveli District. The document identifies the Vadakku Valliyur Local Planning Authority, the Directorate of Town and Country Planning, Tirunelveli Region, and the Vadakku Valliyur Special Grade Town Panchayat as authorities connected with the plan and its administration.
The certification accompanying the master plan records that:
- The master plan boundary is marked with a black line and corresponds to the notified planning area.
- The reports and plans have been authenticated.
- The categories shown in the zoning map match the categories in the zoning regulations.
- The prescribed master plan preparation, publication and sanction procedures were followed.
Why it matters to property owners and buyers
The approved Vadakku Valliyur Master Plan is relevant to land and buildings located inside the boundary shown on the plan. Because the documents include a zoning map and zoning regulations, a buyer, owner or professional can use them to identify the planning category assigned to a property and the planning framework applicable to that location.
The supplied text does not list individual survey numbers, permitted uses or development restrictions. Those details must therefore be checked in the approved master plan and its enclosures rather than inferred from the approval order alone.
Public inspection
The approved Vadakku Valliyur Master Plan and all its enclosures must be kept open for public inspection at the office of the Vadakku Valliyur Special Grade Town Panchayat during office hours. A person assessing property within the planning area can inspect the authenticated plans, boundary, zoning map and zoning regulations there.
