13th March, 1999 to the extent as indicated below, namely:—

DRAFT

In the said scheme, for the sub-heading “10 Reservation of Land and

Zoning” the following shall be substituted, namely:—

“10. Reservation of Land and Zoning

1. A list of land reserved for streets and for other non-residential purposes

is given in Schedule No. 4 (Form No. 10).

For the purpose of the scheme, the streets or footpaths which may be

approved or made in accordance with the provisions of the scheme,

which are not mentioned in Schedule IV shall also be deemed to be included

under land reserved for the purpose of the scheme.

2. The Kozhikode Corporation may, from time to time meet the demand,

declare any part of the area, with the approval of the Chief Town

Planner or subject to such conditions and restrictions as he may think fit,

to be reserved for any activity or for such other purposes which can be

prescribed under sub-section (k) of section 4 of the Act.

Any part of the area so declared shall be included

under land reserved under the scheme and treated as such.

3. (i)

All future developments in respect of land within the scheme area,

shall conform to the zoning regulation given below: (Any uses not

mentioned there in shall be prohibited).

(ii)

For the implementation and enforcement of the proposals envisaged

in the Detailed Town Planning Scheme, areas have been zoned under

various uses such as residential, commercial, public and semi-public,

etc. Details regarding the nature of uses ‘permitted’, uses ‘restricted’

and uses ‘prohibited’ in each zone are given below.

(iii)

“Uses permitted” in a zone cover the uses that can be normally

accommodated in the relevant zone. In some cases it may be

possible to permit some other uses also which are not likely to

affect the quality and environment in a zone specified for a particular

use. Such cases have to be individually studied based on their

performance characteristics and spatial locational factors. Such cases,

which come under this category, are classified as “Uses Restricted”.

“Uses Prohibited” enlists the various objectionable uses in each

zone, which shall not be permitted under normal circumstances.

(iv)

Zoning Regulations are not intended to prohibit existing uses that

have been lawfully established prior to the enforcement of these

regulations. They are essentially intended to help the competent

authority in decisions regarding granting or refusal of planning

permissions for land use conversions and construction of buildings/

structures or any other matter specifically mentioned in these

regulations.

(v)

Existing areas and structures of archeological importance and

religious uses may be permitted to continue in all zones.
