1)Master Plan
A Master plan is a dynamic long-term planning statutory document that provides a conceptual framework to guide future development. Master planning is about making the connection between buildings, social settings and their surrounding environments. A master plan includes analysis, recommendations, and proposals for an area’s population, economy, housing, transportation, community facilities and land use. It is based on public input, surveys, planning initiatives, existing development, physical characteristics, social and economic conditions. Master plans can have an important role in determining the shape of the urban environment.

Directorate of Town and Country planning ( DTCP) is marching towards fulfillment of the policy of the Government to increase the present geographical area covered under master plans from 7% to 22%. This involves expansion of the area under each of the present 123 master plans necessitated due to increased influence of urbanization of the core town over the fringe areas and notification of new areas for preparation of master plan.

In Order to prepare Master Plan for Perambalur, the Perambalur Composite Local Planning Area (CLPA) was originally notified in Part II Section 2 of the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette, dated 22 November, 2006 and declared provisionally under 10(4) section Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971 for the area of 190.24 Sq.Km. The Proposed Perambalur CLPA has the Perambalur Municipality as the core area with adjoining 14 revenue villages for the population of 1,06,548 as per census 2011.

Thereafter, Reconnaissance Survey was done in first week of February 2022 to observe the development in the above Notified Master Plan area. It was noticed that out of 14 villages, 9 villages viz., Keelakarai, Sengunam, Nochiyam, Kalpadi North, Kalpadi South, Sithali West, Sithali East, Perali North and Perali South have not been significantly developed. Since, there were no major developments with respect to industrial use and institutional use in and around municipality for the past 10 years.

Therefore, the Perambalur CLPA boundary has to be modified and re-notified under section 10(1)(b) of Town and Country Planning Act, 1971. The Revised area would be 67.13 sq. km, includes Perambalur Municipality, Aranarai North (pt), Aranarai South, Perambalur North (pt), Elambalur &T huraimangalam (pt) Villages and it has been sent to government for re-notification. In the mean time, Secondary data Viz. Water Supply, Transportation, Statistic And Economic, Agriculture, forest area and so on has been collected from respective departments for the preparation of Master plan. Also, Preparation of existing land use map is under progress.

2) Regional Plan
Regional plan is a process to achieve the desired development through a scientific and systematic way by a definitive action of integrating sectoral, spatial and economic goals at various levels from rural to urban settlements. It regulates spatial and sectoral development in terms of resources or activities in land through zoning of the region. The regions were delineated by taking into consideration of natural or man-made features/parameters, viz., demography, economic dependency, traffic links, governance, sociallinkages, environmental features (forests, wildlife or climate), physiography, investments, resource. Geographical area of the State is divided into 12 regions for the purpose of preparation of regional plans.
