G.O.(Ms). No.23, Inclusion of Narasingapuram and its environs in Attur Local Planning Area, 2011
The Tamil Nadu Housing and Urban Development (UD 4-2) Department issued G.O.(Ms). No.23, dated 27 January 2011, declaring the Government's intention to include Narasingapuram and surrounding areas in the Attur Local Planning Area. The notification proposes a draft amendment, invites objections or suggestions, and does not record the final inclusion of the additional areas.
What the order does
G.O.(Ms). No.23 of the Tamil Nadu Housing and Urban Development (UD 4-2) Department, dated 27 January 2011, announces an intention to expand the Attur Local Planning Area. It proposes replacing the area table in an earlier Rural Development and Local Administration Department notification published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette on 10 April 1974.
The proposal was made under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971. The stated purpose is to combine Attur, Narasingapuram and eight revenue villages into a composite local planning authority so that a comprehensive development plan can be prepared, including road networks and ring roads.
Areas covered by the proposal
The draft table identifies the Attur Local Planning Area as including:
- Attur Municipality.
- Narasingapuram Municipality, comprising Narasingapuram, Udayampatti and Lakshmanasamudram entries shown in the table.
- Tandavarayapuram.
- Tennagudipalayam.
- Appamma Samudram.
- Muttal.
- Kallanatham.
- Ammampalayam.
- Tulukkanur.
- Valayama Devi.
The Director of Town and Country Planning reported that Attur and Narasingapuram are adjoining twin towns and that maintaining two adjacent urban nodes was not considered viable.
Who may be affected
G.O.(Ms). No.23 may be relevant to property buyers, owners and professionals dealing with land in Narasingapuram or any of the listed villages. Inclusion in a local planning area would place those areas within the proposed composite planning framework for Attur, including future development planning and proposed transport networks.
The source records only a declared intention and a draft amendment. It does not state that the proposed inclusion became final through this document.
Publication and public comments
The notification was directed to be published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette and republished by the Collector of Salem District in the District Gazette. A Tamil translation was also to be prepared and sent to the Collector.
The draft amendment was to be considered after two months from publication in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette. Inhabitants, local authorities and institutions in the local area could submit written objections or suggestions to the Secretary to Government, Housing and Urban Development Department, Secretariat, Fort St. George, Chennai 600 009.
