ZONING REGULATIONS

11.1 INTRODUCTION
In order to promote public health, safety and the general social welfare of the community, it is
necessary to apply control and reasonable limitation on the development of land and buildings.
This is to ensure that most appropriate, economical and healthy development of the entire
Anekal Local Planning Area including Anekal Town takes place in accordance with the land
use plan, and its continued maintenance over the years. For this purpose, the LPA is divided
into number of use zones, such as Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Public and Semi Public,
Park and Open Space etc. Each zone has its own regulations, as the same set of regulations
cannot be applied to the entire area.

Zonal Regulations protects residential areas from the harmful invasions of commercial and
industrial uses and at the same time promotes the orderly development of industrial and
commercial areas, by suitable regulations on spacing of buildings to provide adequate light, air,
protection from fire, etc. It prevents overcrowding in buildings and on land to ensure adequate
facilities and services.

Zoning is not retrospective. It does not prohibit the uses of land and buildings that are lawfully
established prior to the coming into effect of these Zonal Regulations. If these uses are contrary
to the newly proposed uses, they are termed non-conforming uses and are gradually eliminated
over years without inflicting unreasonable hardship upon the property owner.

The Zonal Regulations and its enforcement ensure proper land use and development and form
an integral part of the Master Plan. It also ensures solutions to problems of development underlocal conditions.

The historical monuments in any city reflect the past glory of the city. As they attract

of scenic beauty, then Authority may demarcate special Development control areas for
regulation of development around these areas, to preserve the importance of the concerned
heritage structure and also to control the surrounding developments so that they do not mar the
grandeur or beauty or view of the heritage structure for the purposes of implementation.
A special Heritage committee may be constituted with the prior approval of the Government to
examine the proposals of development or any matter related to development, in the various
regulation areas, if received by the Authority, under the provisions of special Regulations and to
make recommendations to this Authority for consideration.
