What the government order does

The Housing and Urban Development Department issued G.O. (Ms.) No. 181 dated 12 December 2014 under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971. It declares the area comprising Kayalpattinam Second Grade Municipality to be the Kayalpattinam local planning area.

The declaration is a confirmation of the government's previously published intention to create the local planning area. The appended notification was directed to be published in the next issue of the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette.

Area covered

G.O. (Ms.) No. 181 dated 12 December 2014 covers:

  • The full area comprising Kayalpattinam Second Grade Municipality.
  • The newly declared planning area named the Kayalpattinam local planning area.

The source does not provide a separate boundary description, survey number list or map. It identifies the covered area by the municipal boundary.

Process followed

The Housing and Urban Development Department records the following steps:

  • The government's intention to declare Kayalpattinam Second Grade Municipality as a local planning area was published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette dated 19 September 2012.
  • The proposal was also published in the Thoothukudi District Gazette dated 8 April 2014 for general information.
  • The Commissioner of Town and Country Planning reported, by letter dated 23 September 2014, that no objections or suggestions had been received from the public.
  • The government accepted the Commissioner's proposal and confirmed the declaration.

Who may be affected

The declaration is relevant to property owners, buyers, developers and professionals dealing with land or buildings within Kayalpattinam Second Grade Municipality because that municipal area is formally identified as a local planning area.

G.O. (Ms.) No. 181 dated 12 December 2014 does not itself state development conditions, land use classifications, approval procedures, fees or building restrictions. It only confirms the planning area declaration. Anyone assessing a particular property would therefore need to identify whether it lies within the municipality and consult any other applicable planning documents separately.
