Bhavanisagar Master Plan (Modified)
The Government of Tamil Nadu, Housing and Urban Development (UD 4(2)) Department issued G.O. Ms. No. 219 on 13 October 2010, consenting to the Bhavanisagar Local Planning Authority publishing notice that a modified master plan had been prepared for the Bhavanisagar Local Planning Area. The Government Order permits the publication process but does not give final approval to the modified master plan, which must be resubmitted to the Government after the required procedures are followed.
Purpose of the document
G.O. Ms. No. 219 of the Government of Tamil Nadu, Housing and Urban Development (UD 4(2)) Department, dated 13 October 2010, concerns the modified master plan for the Bhavanisagar Local Planning Area in Erode District. The Governor of Tamil Nadu gave consent under section 24(2) of the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971, allowing the Bhavanisagar Local Planning Authority to publish a notice under section 26 about preparation of the modified plan.
The earlier Bhavanisagar Master Plan had received Government approval under section 28 through G.O. Ms. No. 868, Housing and Urban Development Department, dated 13 October 1995. The modified plan was prepared after considering current and future development.
What the modified plan covers
The Bhavanisagar Master Plan (Modified) records existing conditions and proposed development for the local planning area. Its listed subjects include:
- Existing residential, commercial, industrial, educational, public and semi-public, agricultural, and water uses.
- Proposed land uses for residential, commercial, industrial, educational, public and semi-public, agricultural, and water areas.
- Population projections and estimated working population.
- Transportation, water supply, drainage, sanitation and other public facilities.
- Development regulations, use zones and permitted uses.
- Survey field numbers included in different land use zones.
Effect on owners and buyers
The Bhavanisagar Master Plan (Modified) may be relevant to anyone buying, owning or developing land within the Bhavanisagar Local Planning Area. Proposed use zones and permitted uses can be important when checking whether residential, commercial, industrial or other development is contemplated for a property.
The supplied text does not list the individual survey field numbers or reproduce the detailed zoning provisions. A parcel's classification therefore cannot be determined from this extract alone.
Procedural status and next steps
G.O. Ms. No. 219 authorises publication of notice, not final approval of the modified master plan. The Director of Town and Country Planning was directed to ensure that the Bhavanisagar Local Planning Authority complied with the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971, and the Master Plan (Preparation, Publication and Sanction) Rules. The modified plan was then to be resubmitted to the Government for approval under section 28.
