Thisayanvilai Master Plan Consent
The Housing and Urban Development [UD4(2)] Department of the Government of Tamil Nadu issued G.O.Ms.No.273 on 29 November 2010, giving consent to the Thisayanvilai Local Planning Authority to publish notice that a master plan had been prepared for the Thisayanvilai Local Planning Area. The Government Order does not grant final approval to the master plan, and requires the prescribed planning procedures to be completed before the plan is resubmitted to the Government for approval.
What the document does
The Housing and Urban Development [UD4(2)] Department issued G.O.Ms.No.273 dated 29 November 2010 after the Director of Town and Country Planning reported that a master plan had been prepared for the Thisayanvilai Local Planning Area. The plan was prepared with current development and future development in mind.
The Government Order gives the Thisayanvilai Local Planning Authority consent under section 24(2) of the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971 to publish a notice under section 26 announcing preparation of the master plan. This is a procedural consent for publication, not the Government's final approval of the master plan.
Area and planning authority
The Government Order records that the Thisayanvilai Town Panchayat area had previously been declared as the Thisayanvilai Local Planning Area. It also records that the Thisayanvilai Town Panchayat had been declared as the local planning authority for that area.
The document is therefore relevant to property owners, buyers, developers and professionals dealing with land or buildings within the Thisayanvilai Town Panchayat area in Tirunelveli District.

Effect on property decisions
G.O.Ms.No.273 dated 29 November 2010 confirms that the Thisayanvilai master plan had reached the notice publication stage. It does not state that the plan had received final Government approval. The supplied text also does not identify the zoning or permitted use of any individual property, so a parcel's position cannot be determined from the Government Order alone.
