G.O.(Ms).No.148, Addition of Villages to Erode Local Planning Area, 2013
The Housing and Urban Development [UD 4(2)] Department of the Government of Tamil Nadu issued G.O.(Ms).No.148 dated 20 June 2013, declaring its intention to add villages from the Chithode and Perundurai New Town Development Areas and 26 villages from non-planning areas to the Erode Local Planning Area. The order proposes to amend the existing notification, publish the draft in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette and consider objections or suggestions received within two months of Gazette publication.
What the order covers
G.O.(Ms).No.148 dated 20 June 2013 of the Housing and Urban Development [UD 4(2)] Department concerns the proposed expansion of the Erode Local Planning Area. It declares the Government's intention to include:
- Five villages covered by the Chithode New Town Development Area.
- Sixty-four villages covered by the Perundurai New Town Development Area.
- Twenty-six villages in non-planning areas.
The appended draft amendment would replace the table in the earlier Rural Development and Local Administration Department notification with a new table of revenue villages under the Erode Local Planning Area. The table includes villages in Erode Taluk and Perundurai Taluk.
Why the planning area is being expanded
The Commissioner of Town and Country Planning reported that expansion of the Erode Corporation limits had created scope for apartment and industrial development in surrounding areas. The Commissioner also reported substantial development in the Perundurai and Chithode New Town Development Areas.
The proposed combined planning area was intended to support uniform planning for:
- Roads.
- Bypass roads.
- Link roads.
- Land use based on development.
The proposal would bring the Perundurai and Chithode New Town Development Areas together with the Erode Local Planning Area, while also adding the identified non-planning villages.
