URBAN PLANNING

Urban
 Definition of urban area |

(i) all places with a municipality, corporation, cantonment board or notified town area
committee;
(ii) all other places which has features as
(1) a minimum population of 5000;
(2) at least 75% of the male working population engaged in non- agricultural
pursuits and
(3) a density of population of at least 400 persons per sq. km.

Apart from urban area & urban agglomeration rest is considered as Rural Area
 URBAN PLANNING |

Master plan
A Master Plan is the long term perspective plan for guiding the sustainable planned development of the city.
 MASTER PLAN |

For a successful City/town planning there must be a plan, which

envisages(predict) the entire City/town as a single unit. This is necessary to
achieve overall development of the town in co-coordinated manner.

The development or expansion of a City/town takes a long

time, and therefore, the development requires control at any
time on the basis of a plan. such a plan is called as Master
Plan

 NECESSITY OF THE MASTER PLAN |
The period of Industrial revolution(1760 1820) marks an important epoch in the
history of the growth of all the cities. Between the two world wars and especially after
the Second World War (1939 45), many towns and cities have been grown up
haphazardly without proper planning.

And the over-grown cities became a mess and a muddle with all the evils. The industries
have been set up in the heart of the cities without any consideration of transport and
other utility services.

The migration of rural population has caused housing shortage and increased congestion.
The rapid development of transport has been found to be inadequate for the growing
needs of the automobiles. It has caused over-crowding and congestion on the roads
resulting road accidents.

Industries have encroached upon the residential areas causing shortage of open and
recreational areas. In order to eradicate the evils of the ill-
planned cities, there is a need of a comprehensive Master plan for the general
welfare of the citizens in respect of health, convenience and comfort.

 STAGES IN THE PREPARATION OF MASTER PLAN |
prepare The re-planning of an existing town is more complex than planning or designing a new
Government scheme town on virgin land, such as capital towns like New Delhi, Chandigarh, industrial town
like rourkela, port town, military cantonments etc. The work of ordinary town-planner
is usually restricted to re planning of an existing town.

Collect data After taking the Government sanction to prepare the scheme, next work is to collect
the data and relevant information, with the help of a comprehensive civic survey.
From the data collected in the civic survey, he is in a position to make a correct
diagnosis of the various ills of the town and suggest remedies for their cure.
Negative Positive
of town of town For the collection of data for the planning scheme, the town is divided into old town
and new town. In the former case, the work is tedious because the old town usually
consists of narrow streets, congestion, insanitation, and un-healthy conditions etc. But
in the later case, zoned areas, provision of all civic amenities etc.
Diagnosis/suggest remedies
However care should be taken to keep the whole town, old or new alike in all aspect
and finally blended skillfully so as to form in-separately interwoven structure.
 DURATION OF PREPARATION OF MASTER PLAN |
The planning authority prepares the interim master plan, also called the outline development plan. The statutory time
limit is two years.
It shall then be notified for the public comments and suggestions (1 month).
The draft plan may be revised in the light of the public and expert comments and shall be submitted for Govts sanction
(4 months from date of publication of the draft plan to be further extended by the Govt. by three months, if required).
The Govt. sanctions the revised plan and appoints an arbitrator (12 months).
The arbitrator after holding proceedings in respect of each plot, publishes the award and submits the detailed
proposals to the higher authority such as the president of the Tribunal of Arbitration (no fixed time limit but at least 12
months for small scheme and more for longer schemes).
The tribunal shall make thorough scrutiny of arbitrators proposals and convey their decision ( usually 6 months).
The arbitrator prepares the final scheme and submits to Govt. with plans through the local authority (usually 6
months). The local authority forwards the final scheme to the Govt. (usually 3 months).
Govt. sanctions the final scheme after the photozinco Dept., has printed all the plans (normally 9 months) after which
the final scheme of Action plan comes into force (usually 2 months after the Govt.s sanction).
The detailed master plan also called the comprehensive development plan is duly approved and sanctioned by the Govt.
then made legally bindings on all the authorities concerned, by giving it a legal status.
Lastly a financial programme is prepared to devise the ways and means for the implementation of the master plan
according to the schedule.
 APPROACH TO URBAN PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT |
Taking into account the problems of existing planning system of urban development in India, the UDPFI (Urban
Development Plan Formulation and Implementation) guidelines were prepared by ITPI (Institute of Town Planners,
India) at the behest of the Ministry of Urban development and poverty alleviation, Government of India and
recommended urban development planning system consisting of a set of four inter-related plans i.e.

(a) perspective plan

(b) Development plan

(c) Annual plan and

(d) Plans of projects / schemes

 APPROACH TO URBAN PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT |
DEVELOPMENT PLAN Development plan prepared within the framework of the approved perspective plan is medium
term (5 years) comprehensive plan of spatio-economic development of the urban center.

The OBJECTIVE of a development plan is to provide further necessary details and intended actions in the form of
strategies and physical proposals for development of the urban center, including employment generation, economic
base, transportation and land use, housing and other infrastructure, and matters like environment, conservation and
ecology.

It also contains implementation strategies, agency-wise(including private sector) schemes / projects, development
promotion rules, and resource mobilization plan with particular reference to finance, land and manpower and provides
an efficient system of monitoring and review.

Development plan is a statutory document, approved and adopted by the local authority for implementation, with the
help of schemes and projects and would be co-terminus WITH FIVE YEAR PLANS OF STATE GOVERNMENTS / local bodies,
which would provide opportunities to incorporate the needs and development aspirations of the people through the
elected representatives.
 APPROACH TO URBAN PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT |
ANNUAL PLANS

The purpose of preparation of Annual plan, is

to identify the new schemes / projects, which
the authority will undertake for implementation, during the year, taking into account the
physical and fiscal performance of the preceding year, keeping in view the priorities, the policies and the proposals
contained in the approved Development plan.

These plans would also provide the resource requirements during the year and the sources of funding including those
mobilized by the local authorities, i.e. grants, aids and projects / scheme funds, of the state and central governments.

It is thus, an important document for resource mobilization. This will also enable the funding agencies to allocate the
funds in phased manner.
 APPROACH TO URBAN PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT |
PLANS OF SCHEMES / PROJECTS

Conceived within the framework of the Development plan, schemes / projects are the working layouts, providing all
necessary details for execution including finance, development, administration and management.

These schemes / projects could be for any area, old or new, of any activity or land use like residential, commercial,
industrial, recreational, educational or health related or infrastructure development, separately or in an integrated
manner, by any agency such as government, semi-government, private or even individuals or for any agency.

URBAN PLANNING

Regional planning
integrated development of human settlements and countryside within a region.
 REGIONAL PLANNING |

Regional planning deals primarily with the integrated development of human settlements and countryside within a
region.

It aims at reducing the disparity in the level of living of the people and the wide gulf between urban and rural life.

Regional planning can be a tool for balanced development of the nation and co-ordinate the aims and objectives of the
national development planning with the implementation programmes at the micro-level.
 REGIONAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT |

REGIONAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT

A village is the center for many of the activities of its countryside, that the town is the center for an
area within a radius of about 10 to 15kms, and a great city for a still wider area, which it serves a s a
regional center of economic and social organization.

Industrial revolution has caused certain towns to grow very rapidly without organic relation to
countryside and the services have tended to concentrate in a few centers.
 CHARACTERISTICS OF GROWTH CENTER IN REGIONAL PLANNING |

REGIONAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT

Every town or village is in more or less degree a regional capital

Each town works as a service center for the neighboring area; it is the seat of regional integration
for the area around it.
Present day activities are to be concentrated in some central area
Consumer markets govern the location of industries, which in turn depend on the population of
the town and its environs
Population size alone cannot decide the hierarchy of human settlements
The function of settlement is more important than the size of population
The absence of more towns may make a town serve a wider area and closer proximity of more
towns in an area may force some big towns to remain only trading towns and be in a lower order
of hierarchy.

URBAN PLANNING

Zonal plan
a link between the layout and the Master Plan.
 |
ZONAL PLANNING

A Zonal Development Plan

means a plan for a Zone
(Division) of the Union
Territory of Delhi. The Zonal
Plan (Divisional Plan) details
out the policy of the Master
Plan and acts as a link
between the layout and the
Master Plan.

The development
schemes/layout plans
indicating use premises
should conform to the
Master Plan/Zonal
(Divisional) Plan.

ZONAL PLANNING

SCOPE OF THIS ARTICLE IS ANSWERING QUESTIONS LIKE:

1.Where zonal development plans originate from?

2.What is a zonal development plan?

3.Why a zonal level development plan is required?

4.Legality of ZDP.
 ZONAL PLANNING |

STARTING OF ZONING Indian Master plan approach was fundamentally guided by the British Town Planning
legislations.

And further integrating the western concept of 'zoning' into the Master planning lead to the
preparation of new lower hierarchy development plans called 'Zonal development plan'
handling more comprehensive and more focused objectives derived from the Master plan.
 ZONAL PLANNING |

DEFINITION OF ZONING The basic concept of zoning lies in the division of a settlement into zones and districts
according to present and potential uses of land and buildings.

Zoning has to pay particular attention to the character of a place and its suitability.

Thus, zoning is establishing districts within which certain rights of citizens are legally
curbed.
 |
ZONAL PLANNING

OBJECTIVES OF ZONING To lessen congestion in streets

To secure safety of fire and other hazards

To promote health and general welfare

To protect amenity value and hence property

To provide adequate light and air

To prevent over concentration of population

To facilitate transportation, water supply, sewerage, schools, parks, etc

To encourage the most appropriate use of land

 URBAN RENEWAL |

URBAN RENEWAL
The redevelopment of areas within a large city, typically involving the clearance of slums.

 URBAN RENEWAL |
DEFINITIONS OF SOME OF THE TERMS USED IN DESCRIBING URBAN RENEWAL

Slums
Slums may be broadly defined as an area with untidy and ill ventilated
residences without proper sanitation and water supply. In slum and blighted areas
we can find submerged humanity and social disorganization. Poor mostly inhabit
these areas.

Blight
Any area or a part of urban or rural in deterioration is called Blighted area
irrespective of its degree of deterioration The blight may be in physical conditions
such as topological blight, or economic blight as the semi or full deterioration of
commercial activities in that area.

Obsolescence
It can be defined as an associate of blights and slums, since the basic
nature is same for all. An area which is unfit for the present use either due to the
change in the pattern of living or due to cultural or economic changes is called
obsolescent area
 URBAN RENEWAL |
DEFINITIONS OF SOME OF THE TERMS USED IN DESCRIBING URBAN RENEWAL

Central Area
Generally oldest parts of the city will be the central area. Since from where the city
starts growing to meet the increasing population and to provide fashionable and
luxurious type of buildings coupled with the residences of the poorest city dwellers.

CBD
This term CBD or Central Business District is used to denote the important Central
commercial Zone where the commercial function is the predominant function and
others are mostly negligible. This is the most accessible area of the town. This is the
most populous area in the daytime. This areas predominant function is commercial
(retail and wholesale)
 URBAN RENEWAL |
NEED FOR URBAN RENEWAL

Urban renewal programme is essential to remove the congestion of traffic, to demolish the useless building, or buildings
which cannot be used for any purposes such as commercial or residential etc. The sub-standard condition will make the
buildings unfit for any such use.

The urban renewal programme permits us to demolish them. It also enables us to rebuild the same area with all the
facilities and to make the environment to be a planned one. The reasons for the need of urban renewal can be divided
into three:
1. Physical obsolescence blight and deterioration

2. Economic losses

3. Social imbalances
 URBAN RENEWAL |
GOALS OF URBAN RENEWAL

To maintain health of

Urban settlement

Functions

Financial adequacy of government

Capacity of city

Traffic & transportation

Maintenance of basic services

 URBAN RENEWAL |
TYPES OF URBAN RENEWAL

Three aspects constitute the urban renewal. They are

1. Redevelopment (clearing and reuse of land)

2. Rehabilitation (repairing or remodeling)

3. Conservation (preventing)
 URBAN RENEWAL |
TYPES OF URBAN RENEWAL

1.REDEVELOPMENT:

It is applicable to areas where the arrangement of

the building and general character of obsolescence
and deterioration make it worth less to live and
thus liable the area to be redeveloped.

Main aims of redevelopment policy are:

1. Removal of existing building

2. Reuse of cleared land

3. Use of any open land that was

interspersed among the improved buildings and
possibly adjacent land also. This latter may be
required for street widening, commercial uses etc.

2.REHABILITATION :

It is an area where buildings may be good structurally but may not be proper for habitation purposes and some repairing
or remodeling may make them fit fro habitation purposes. Modernizing and repairing so as to enable them to be at
satisfactory standards of living can restore some neighbourhood.

The policy is most applicable to those city zones:

In which there is a high degree of loss of efficiency in original function or functions
In which there are conditions appearing which are likely to cause deterioration in the sound economic activity
In which there is continuous deterioration in living conditions
In which, buildings although generally in structurally good conditions have begun to deteriorate due to lack of
maintenance.

Administrative measures of controlling the use of reuse of land and the buildings are
Either restore the area to its original functions
To bring about a new and appropriate functions, in accordance with the general city development proposals.

3.CONSERVATION :

It is most applicable to zones of city which are now generally suited to their function, zones in which buildings are kept in
good condition, zones containing buildings and areas of historical, cultural or architectural value. A conservation policy
would have as its objectives the protection of such areas by preventing their falling into a condition requiring
redevelopment .

The following measures are important in such zones:

Owners must maintain buildings to legally prescribed standards

Overcrowding of rooms and dwellings are not to be permitted

Overcrowding of buildings on sites not to be permitted (new buildings proposals are to be carefully assesses)

Strict enforcement of zoning regulations i.e., the area is not allowed to disturb the essence of what is being
conserved

BENEFITS FROM URBAN RENEWAL

There is a wide range of benefits to be derived from urban renewal.

Generally they are classified under 3 groups as follows:

1. Physical benefits
2. Social benefits
3. Economic benefits
 URBAN RENEWAL |
BENEFITS FROM URBAN RENEWAL

1.PHYSICAL BENEFITS :

These are the benefits that can be seen and experienced and include

1. Provision for urgently needed facilities in the urban area or at least land for it
(such as a hospital, school, bus terminal, park etc.)

2. Traffic betterments in the form of rearrangement of an obsolete street system;

increasing traffic carrying capacity of streets by widening or channelising them,
providing space for transit facilities, etc.

3. Enhancement of utilities by replacing worn-out or obsolete water lines and

sewage facilities and installing drainage facilities to eliminate flooding in low
lying areas, and reducing water pollution by installation of sewage treatment
facilities
 URBAN RENEWAL |
BENEFITS FROM URBAN RENEWAL

2.SOCIAL BENEFITS :

These benefits are not as easily evaluated or measured and yet may have more impact than physical ones.

Broader social benefits include new schools and recreation facilities, a community center building with programmes
for the poor and aged, a health clinic, or a job-training programme.

Probably the most impressive social advancement renewal offers is the elimination of substandard housing and the
creation of standard housing in neighbourhood.

Due to renewal programmes there is a chance to uplift the status of the slum dwellers.
 URBAN RENEWAL |
BENEFITS FROM URBAN RENEWAL

3.ECONOMIC BENEFITS :

If renewed area is used for commercial purposes, or even for residential (for rent) the returns from them (in terms of
economic benefits) are more in addition to physical and social benefits.

The renewed area may fetch more money than the income, which we can get, from the un-renewed buildings.

The chances of accidents (fire accidents) are comparatively very less.

This was revealed in a study in United States.

The maintenance cost will be less in renewed area than that of the un-renewed area in addition to the fear of
collapse of these substandard building at any time.

PUD

 |
URBAN PLANNING

A planned unit development

(PUD), is a type of building
development and also a
regulatory process.

As a building development, it
is a designed grouping of both
varied and compatible land
uses , such

as housing, recreation, comm

ercial centers, and industrial
parks, all within one
contained development
or subdivision.
 PUD |
Current definitions

PUD as a regulatory process is a means of land regulation which promotes large scale, unified land development by means
of mid-range, realistic programs in chase of physically curable, social and economic deficiencies in land and cityscapes.
Where appropriate, this development control promotes:

A mixture of both land uses and dwelling types with at least one of the land uses being regional in nature

The clustering of residential land uses providing public and common open space

Increased administrative discretion to a local professional planning staff while setting aside present land use regulations
and rigid plat approval processes

The enhancement of the bargaining process between the developer and government municipalities which in turn
strengthens the municipality's site plan review and control over development for potentially increased profits due to
land efficiency, multiple land uses, and increased residential densities.

Frequently, PUDs take on a variety of forms ranging from small clusters of houses combined with open spaces to new and
developing towns with thousands of residents and various land uses. However, the definition of a PUD does not take into
consideration these types of developments unless they fit into a category of size ranging from 100 to 200 acres (40 to
81 ha). In a PUD the property owner owns the land the dwelling sits on.

JNNURM (Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission):

It is a massive city modernization scheme.

To improve the quality of life and infrastructure in the cities.
The duration of the Mission is 7 years (2005-2012).

Background of the Program:

(1) Need for Urban Sector Development:

According to the 2001 census, India has a population of 1027 million with approximately 28% or 285 million people
living in urban areas.

Urban population may increase to about 40% of total population by the year 2021.
By the year 2011, urban areas would contribute about 65 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP).
However, this depends on the availability and quality of infrastructure services.
