(1) "Special buildings" means--
(a) a residential or commercial buildings with more than two floors ; or
(b) a residential building with more than four dwelling units ; or
(c) a commercial building exceeding a floor area of 300 square metre:
Provided that any construction in the second floor with prior permission as an addition to an existing ground and first storeyed authorised ordinary residential building which is three years old shall not be construed as a "special building".
(2) The minimum width of the public road on which the site abuts or gains access shall be 9 metres.
Explanation.--
(i) The qualifying road width for permitting special building shall be available at least for a reasonable stretch about 250 metres along the length of the road abutting the site and the stretch from a https://www.manupatrafast.com/TOC/TocDisplay.aspx?col=8Vmp9ozFMb/2ISz1SdixCIRVngsjs/j1lxFukHhUlVjtLjdB0bd4mmFTJWUx/aBSKBdGFQIME6VoesAFaCGBewHrWR8ddcNQuL7JwN7hYU7qHizMrFQj4LFUvb7Bkchar(43)6o706GyNkh4BCUcuVcjmbGhejF08ykNubEvKW4zqo890cktJ88vxBo32cc1YJmu9Dc/5IUlIm3BdNjSABchar(43)2R9TRHZChuWg9X1a6Zdqtl8E2/Y=&path=Bare%20Acts%20and%20Rules/State/tamil%20nadu/Rules/tamil%20nadu/tamil%20nadu%20town%20and%20country%20planning%20act%201971/DeCoReErVeGuKaSaChTiLoPlAr/Toc.htm#to https://www.manupatrafast.com/TOC/TocDisplay.aspx?col=8Vmp9ozFMb/2ISz1SdixCIRVngsjs/j1lxFukHhUlVjtLjdB0bd4mmFTJWUx/aBSKBdGFQIME6VoesAFaCGBewHrWR8ddcNQuL7JwN7hYU7qHizMrFQj4LFUvb7Bkchar(43)6o706GyNkh4BCUcuVcjmbGhejF08ykNubEvKW4zqo890cktJ88vxBo32cc1YJmu9Dc/5IUlIm3BdNjSABchar(43)2R9TRHZChuWg9X1a6Zdqtl8E2/Y=&path=Bare%20Acts%20and%20Rules/State/tamil%20nadu/Rules/tamil%20nadu/tamil%20nadu%20town%20and%20country%20planning%20act%201971/DeCoReErVeGuKaSaChTiLoPlAr/Toc.htm#to junction can be straight or a curve or zigzag or combination of the above. Over this length, minor variation in road width at two ends may be considered provided width average outs to 9 metres.
To cite examples:--
(a) If the general road is of width less than 9 metres width, but only widens opposite to, or nearer to, the site is more than 9 metres, is not acceptable.
(b) If the road is generally of 9 metres width upto a considerable length on one side, but discontinues and narrows into a road of smaller width on the other side of the site in question and the plot owner is willing to leave enough space for continuity of 9 metres road in front of his site, this will have to be checked and decided on case-by-case. Reference in such cases may be made to Empowered Committee.
(c) If the general road width is less than 9 metres and the site owner merely agrees to leave enough space to have 9 metres in front of his site only, this is not acceptable.
(ii) Road width measurements for the above purpose shall be of the road as designed and laid and the existence of unauthorised encroachments, for which no patta has been given, will not normally affect adversely, provided the shortage in width in the minimum stretch stated above does not exceed 10% of the minimum prescribed width. However, permissibility or otherwise in such specific situations will be decided case-by-case. Reference in such cases may be made to Empowered Committee.
