PREAMBLE PREAMBLEOn 3rd Oct, 2006, vide letter No. TPS-3006/381/CR-246/2006/UD-30, the Government of Maharashtra appointed City & Industrial Development Corporation Ltd. (CIDCO) as Special Planning Authority for Fringe Area of Aurangabad consisting of 28 villages admeasuring 15184 Ha. In deference to the provisions of Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning (MR&TP) Act, 1966 that are required to be adhered, CIDCO Board of Directors vide resolution no 9944 dated 03.10.2008 approved the proposal declaring the intention to prepare the Draft Development Plan for this area. Accordingly, under Section-23 of MR&TP Act, 1966, a notification was published in Government Gazette on 13 Nov, 2008 and in widely circulated local newspapers. In response to this notification suggestions/objections received from the public were duly registered. Majority of them were related to opposition for CIDCOs appointment and acquisition of lands. People of Aurangabad Fringe Area were under the impression that CIDCO will acquire all the lands lying in the notified area. To remove this misunderstanding, CIDCO published its stand in the local news papers. It was clarified that minimum area that will be required to develop Development Plan reservations will only be acquired. Further, on 03.10.2008, the board also appointed the Sr. Planner (NT) as Town Planning Officer (TPO) for the project U/s 24 of the MR&TP Act 1966. The source of income as estimated from receipts is limited to the development charges and premium. Government notification for Aurangabad Fringe Area directs that CIDCO shall prepare the proposal for development of land within the notified area and submit for approval as contemplated u/s 115 of MR&TP, Act 1966 and the funds accruing from grant of permission etc. shall be used for developing and maintaining amenities in this area. In the fringe area, developments are inevitable and during the course of preparation of Draft Development Plan, CIDCO is processing the cases for grant of layout permissions. As a part of preparation of Existing Land use (ELU) map, CIDCO has resorted to the latest technology available for doing ELU survey i.e. by procurement of satellite imagery and processing it by duly geo-referencing as also marking already approved NA layouts on this base map. This latest technology has been used for preparation of precise ELU map 12

duly taking into account the exact ground realities. As per the Sec. 25 of MR&TP Act 1966, the Existing Land Use Map was prepared and a copy of the same had been submitted to the GoM in the month of May 2009.

The Draft Development Plan has been prepared considering the Existing character of Aurangabad city and surroundings. Efforts have been made to integrate the fractured development of the fringe area into a cohesive planned development. To achieve this planned development, it is intended to provide physical and social infrastructure as per the requirement of the anticipated population growth in the respective planning units. The concept of accommodation reservation has been introduced so that the land owners affected by reservations will develop them willingly. Incentive in the form of FSI for land pooling also been proposed to the developer or the society of land owners in the interest of planned development. Further, various alternatives available for development of each facility are also provided in the Development Control Regulations prepared for Aurangabad Fringe area. Before preparation and publication of Draft Development Plan, views of the local representatives were obtained during meetings in the office and during the visits to villages. The comments of CIDCO engineers, planners and economists were also duly considered. The views and comments have helped in fine tuning the draft report, DCR and the Development Plan of Aurangabad Fringe Area.

CHAPTER - 2 AURANGABAD REGIONAL PLAN AND FRINGE AREA OF AURANGABAD 2.1 BACKGROUND:Aurangabad-Jalna Regional Plan was prepared earlier comprising some parts of Aurangabad District and some parts of Jalna District. The said regional Plan was sanctioned by GoM vide notification dated 23rd October, 1980 and, it came in to effect from 1st December, 1980. The GoM later on proposed to prepare the Regional Plan for Aurangabad District only and accordingly vide Notification dated 8th May, 2000 the GoM established the whole revenue area in Aurangabad District as a new region under Section 3(1) and 3(2) of MRTP Act, 1966 and constituted Aurangabad Regional Planning Board comprising 19 members. Aurangabad Region includes one municipal corporation, one B Class municipal council and five C Class municipal councils. As per 2001 Census, the total population of Aurangabad Region is 28,97,013; out of which 10,87,150 is rural population and 18,09,863 is urban population. This region is expanding because of industries, developing agriculture and tourism. The draft Regional Plan of Aurangabad Region has been prepared and sent to Government for approval in the year 2004.

2.2:

PLANNING DIVISIONS:The Regional plan segregates Aurangabad Region into nine sub-divisions. Each subdivision is limited to revenue Tahsil as under 1) Aurangabad 2) Paithan 3) Phulambri 4) Vaijapur 5) Khultabad 6) Gangapur 7) Sillod 8) Soygaon 9) Kannad

This area is mainly categorized into urbanisable and No development area / agriculture area. The urbanisable area of 3132 ha is anticipated to cater the residential requirement as per Regional Plan provisions .This area is well connected by all the major roads : Jalna road (M.S.H.-60) , Jalgaon road (M.S.H.-5), Beed Highway (N.H.-211) and Paithan road (S.H.-25).

22

In the regional context, Aurangabad is the major city. It is the divisional head quarter of the Marathwada region and greatly influences the development in the surrounding area. Accordingly in the said report of the Regional Plan for Aurangabad 28 distinct villages because of their character and influence of corporation area on them, have been delineated into fringe area. Most of these villages in the fringe area are situated in the vicinity of major roads like Aurangabad-Pune, AurangabadJalgaon, Aurangabad-Paithan, Aurangabad-Jalna, and Aurangabad-Beed. Due to these specifics, these villages of the fringe area surrounding the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation have tremendous potential for future development warranting a plan for orderly development with adequate physical infrastructure and requisite social facilities.

2.3:

ADMINISTRATIVE, MANAGEMENT & IMPLEMENTING AGENCY FOR FRINGE AREA:The Regional Plan has separately identified the fringe area of Aurangabad and a broad Landuse Map or Zonal Plan has been prepared by the Town Planning Dept. for the said fringe area which has been approved by Collector in 2004. Initially, MHADA had demanded its appointment as Planning Authority for some of the villages of the fringe area like Satara, Balapur, Gandheli and Deolai. However, the Regional Plan envisages appointment of one planning authority for the entire fringe area. Thus, Government of Maharashtra appointed CIDCO as Special Planning Authority vide notification dated 3rd October, 2006. In the region prior to appointment of CIDCO as SPA, Collector Aurangabad on recommendation of the GoMs Town Planning Dept. granted Non- Agricultural (NA) permissions for layouts and respective Gram Panchayats granted development permissions for buildings on the individual plots. It is to emphasize that, in the broad Zonal Plan prepared by the State Town Planning Dept. and approved by Collector there is no provision of social and physical infrastructure till now. Further, during the period March-2007 to July-2008, a stay had been imposed by Govt. of Maharashtra on carrying out further work by SPA CIDCO. However even in the intervening period, the Collector on recommendation of the States Town Planning Dept. granted development / layout permissions. The

23

fringe area is known for haphazard development with no physical and social infrastructure. This situation has posed a big challenge for planning the said area by integrating the haphazard, illegal development and providing social and physical infrastructure for sustaining the development.

2.4

RESERVATIONS IN REGIONAL PLAN AND AURANGABAD FRINGE AREAAs per 1991 Census, total population of these 28 villages was 23,127 and the projected population upto 2001 was 52,295. In the regional plan of Aurangabad which is awaiting the approval of the GoM, the following reservations are mentioned in Aurangabad Fringe Area.

a)

In Satara village, a land for Indian Police Battalion Force admeasuring 4.98 Ha., and for proposed Water & Land Management Institute (WALMI) Area.

b)

In Jatwada village, certain locations are indicated as ECO Village (protected hilly area).

c)

Buffer of 150 200 m around water bodies as No Development Zone.

CHARACTER OF AURANGABAD FRINGE AREA: In the fringe area, development is highly scattered and haphazard having poor physical and social infrastructure. Development trend is observed on the southern side along Beed by pass Road and towards Paithan road only. In this area, general trend is that, the developers take permission for layouts and sell the plots to individual buyers without developing any infrastructure. The individual plot-holders construct bungalows for self use on such plots. These layouts have been approved by erstwhile planning authority i.e. Collector and the developments carried out by individuals have been incorporated in the plan while preparing the ELU. The statistics of the layouts are as under:

No. of N.A. Permissions Granted by Collector Aurangabad in AFA prior to appointment of CIDCO as SPA Area of N.A. Permissions Granted = 112 = 253.97 Ha

INFRASTRUCTURE:

3.6.1 SOCIAL FACILITIES: The industrial, economic and social growth of a city depends upon the qualitative and quantitative amenities available in that city. These amenities play a predominant role in bringing about industrial development of a city by attracting leading industries in its fold.

3.6.1.1 Existing Education Facilities. Out of the total population of 44773 souls in the AFA, 16612 persons are classed as literates as per 2001 census. This means that 37.10% of total population from fringe area is literate.

The educational facilities have been classified into three categories as per census data as follows:i) Primary schools 23 villages have a primary school each. Satara village is having 2 Primary Schools. The villages not having primary schools are Antapur, Fattepur, Daulatpur, Malharpur, Bagtalav.

ii)

Middle schools 2 villages have a middle school.

iii)

Secondary School There are only three secondary schools in the AFA. One school is located in Sawangi and other is located in Satara village. The third one is located in Sundarwadi village.

iv)

Higher Secondary School. There are no Higher Secondary schools in the villages of AFA.

v)

Colleges:The AFA has Shreyas Engineering College, at village Satara, one B.Ed college at village Sawangi and one Management college at village Ohar.

3.6.1.2 Existing Medical Facilities. In AFA as per census there are 4 numbers of health facilities. Some of the villages even have private hospitals. These hospitals are mostly run by private doctors having dispensaries. Apart from health facilities referred above there are 2 nos. of Primary Health Centre (PHC) and 2 nos. of Primary Health sub-centre (PHS) in the AFA.

3.6.2 PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE. From the overall picture of land the irrigated land in the AFA is 1248.09 Ha. i.e. 10.67% and unirrigated land is 23254.27 Ha. i.e. 89.33%. The percentage of irrigated land is thus very less.

28

3.6.2.1 Existing Water Availability: The water source in the AFA is through wells, tube wells and hand pumps.

3.6.2.2 Existing Sewerage System: There is no underground sewerage system in the AFA. Though there are some sewer lines in Satara Village, the majority of the fringe area have septic tanks.

29

CHAPTER IV EXISTING LAND USE4.1 SURVEY OF THE AREA: Subsequent to appointment of CIDCO, as SPA for AFA it has embarked upon preparation of Development Plan for the entire fringe area and notification to this effect has been published in the official gazette on 13.11.2008. The existing land use map of the AFA has been prepared by collecting data from revenue authorities i.e. Collector and Tahasildars office. For survey of the AFA, CIDCO has resorted to latest technology available i.e. procurement of satellite imagery. Approved NA layouts have been earmarked on the base map.. The base map is prepared by recasting to geo-reference the cadastral satellite information and uses shown are agriculture, forest, residential, water bodies, industry, etc. on the map.

This latest technology has been used for preparation of precise ELU map which takes into account the exact ground realities. Apart from satellite imagery the team of planners and draughtsmen visited each village with village map and identified the locations of existing social facilities, utilities and approved layouts etc. The survey maps prepared by the teams after visit to each village have been incorporated in the separate document of Existing Land Use (ELU) report.

4.2

VILLAGE WISE CHARACTERISTICS a) Satara village The Satara village partly falls under AMC limit and partly in AFA. Nearly 50 % of the area is developed by layouts without any social and physical infrastructure facilities. The layouts are either legally sanctioned or otherwise. Old temple of God Khandoba is in existence in this village wherein yearly fair (Jatra) takes place in the month of November. It is a big event and thousands of people from all around the region visit this temple. 30

Many educational institutes like Nath Valley High School, Chate High School, Riverdale High School are in existence. Satara village which is partly in Corporation area also accommodates the MIT Engineering College, Bajaj Hospital etc. Many Housing schemes and commercial ribbon development have come up along the Beed by-pass road.

Deolai, Gandheli, Balapur villages These villages are strung along the Beed-bypass road. Development along beed-bypass road and around gaothans is taking place at a rapid rate in these villages.

c)

Bagtalav village Major portion of this village falls under green zone. There is a water reservoir feeding the requirement of this village throughout the year.

d)

Sundarwadi, Fattepur villages Pune-Jalna State Highway(M.S.H.-60) is running along these villages. Commercial Ribbon development has taken place. The renowned Cambridge High School is located in this area.

LARGE WATERBODY IN BAGTALAV e) Sawangi village Aurangabad-Jalgaon road passes through the village and development only along road and surrounding to Gaothan is seen and has no major social facilities except a Primary School and a School run by a private trust. f) Jatwada village Majority of the area falls under hilly region. Famous Jain temple is in existence where in annual fair (Jatra) takes place as a big event in the month of April. The village has a primary school. g) All other villages fall under the green zone and development is seen in the gaothans only. Out of the 28 villages following 16 villages have gaothans :Georai, Satara, Deolai, Balapur, Gandheli, Zalta, Sundarwadi, Hirapur, Kachchghati, Mandki, Gopalpur, Pisadevi, Krishnapur, Sawangi, Ohar, Jatwada.

32

4.3

EXISTING COMMERCIAL FACILITIES The commercial activities are seen pre-dominantly along major roads viz. around Beed by-pass road at Satara village. These are like petrol pump, Hotels, dhabas, restaurants etc. To a lesser extent they are seen on Paithan road, Jalna road and Jalgaon road of AFA. In addition, there are some small grocery shops and pan shops in the villages of AFA. The AFA villages are mainly dependent upon the mother city for their market requirements.

4.4

EXISTING LAND USE STATEMENT: In the Existing Landuse table given below it is seen that only 5.5% area is under residential use and a large area is falling in agricultural use. The Satara village has maximum residential area as compared to the other villages of the notified area. Village Georai and Georai Tanda which are located on Paithan road show some industrial development.

4.5 OBSERVATIONS 1) Residential development is in Satara, Devlai, Sawangi villages and along major roads and Agriculture is the predominant activity in all remaining villages. Village Mouje Dautpur is not part of the notified Area though it remained as an island portion surrounded on all sides by the Notified Area. The character of AFA is thus generally more urbanized in the Southern side whereas in rest of the AFA it is largely rural. 2) In Satara and other areas much of the development is through legal / illegal layouts without proper linkages and social / physical infrastructure.

33

3)

The industrial area of 119.165 ha. is existing in village Georai, Georaitanda and Sawangi. The important industries are leather industries and Brookbond Company. A special Exonomic Zone having an ara of 1464.95 Ha. has been notified by Ministry of Commerce Govt. of India in part area of Gandheli, Balapur, Devlai and Zalta villages. Also MIDC has suggested locations for proposed IT Park in AFA.

4)

Water supply is through stand posts, bore wells, hand pumps etc. only and water supply is the major problem in this area

5)

There is no sewerage and drainage system in AFA. Hence in view of above situation, to prepare the Development Plan the existing development needs to be dovetailed properly with the proposed development and due care shall be taken to provide matching social and physical infrastructure in the AFA.

PART II

PROPOSALS

CHAPTER V DEVELOPMENT PLAN STRATEGY5.1 GENERAL APPROACH TO THE PLAN GoM has appointed CIDCO for planned and orderly development of fringe area of Aurangabad as this area is growing haphazardly without adequate social or physical infrastructure. In terms of planning efforts, the Collector, Aurangabad approved zonal plan for these 28 villages in the year 2004 which is a part of Aurangabad Regional Plan submitted to the GoM for approval.

The general trend of development is of scattered nature and layouts with small plots. Dovetailing past commitments made by erstwhile planning authorities and integrating scattered development with an effort to distribute the proposed facilities and amenities spatially in an equitable manner, is the essence of this exercise. The Planning Authority has carefully examined the various approaches to the Plan in relation to the pace of urban development in the fringe area. In the surroundings of AFA, the growth of industrial development is picking up. The approach suggested in AFA is one wherein Residential, Industrial and low intensity uses are permitted in specially carved out zones. These zones are ear-marked as per the potential of the underlying activities in that area. Further, suitable options for easy development of reservations with a view to encourage the owners either to develop the reservations themselves or surrender these lands to the concerned competent authorities have been adopted. In order to encourage large scale assembly of land for preparation of layouts or housing schemes the incentive FSI concept is introduced. This will reduce to certain extent the burden of providing infrastructure by the public authorities. Further, if the land owners form their society by pooling the lands to create more than 1 ha. schemes, then for such schemes additional FSI has been proposed over and above the FSI allowed for the developers / land aggregators applying for the permission on their lands.

36

Statutorily the only source of revenue is development charge and other administrative levies which are magic compared to the large scale infrastructure investment anticipated for the Fringe Area. To successfully implement the various public purpose reservations of development plan, the concept of accommodation reservation and Development Rights have been proposed. To boost the development of physical infrastructure, levying additional development charges at maximum rate prescribed in the MRTP Act, 1966 and a infrastructure development cost charges have been proposed. It is our expectation that these measures shall enhance the financial viability of the project.

With the above approach in view, the objective of the Plan could be summarized as under. 1) 2) To integrate the scattered development into a cohesive urban unit. To provide adequate physical and social services, to raise the living standards and reduce disparities in the provision of amenities and facilities. 3) To provide an environment which permits people to live fuller and richer life free of physical and social stresses which are commonly associated with the urban living. 4) To maintain the character of the area and retain thick greenery as far as possible. 5) 6) To protect flora and fauna of the area to offer good living environment. To create economic and educational base for the city and surrounding area.

37

5.2

CONCEPT OF PREPARATION OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN As per 2001 Census, population of Aurangabad Municipal Corporation is 9 lakhs. The Regional Plan, prepared by Regional planning board has projected the population of 3.19 lakhs in AFA in the year 2021. In the Residential Zone, the SPA CIDCO has to plan for provision of social and physical infrastructure in a phased manner. In the Green Zone, the thrust will be on widening the major roads and village roads. Due consideration to provisions made in the Regional Plan of Aurangabad and the requirements of the anticipated population has been given.

Apart from the above following guidelines have been followed in the plan making exercise: a) Trends of the development vary from village to village. The present trend of development is towards south (Satara, Deolai). More avenues of development are proposed to be opened up along the eastern portion i.e. along JALNA ROAD and western portion i.e Paithan Road. This shall lessen the pressure of development presently seen in Satara- Deolai area. b) Regular availability of water-supply as a key factor in proposing areas for development. c) d) Creation of job opportunities by providing reservations for Industries and IT Parks. As far as possible make every planning unit self sufficient to avoid traffic generation in the core city. e) f) g) To make more flexible reservations or development proposals. As far as possible reservation to be shown on Govt. Land. In corporation of various provisions to attract the people for the development of reservations. h) Only major roads to be shown on the development plan and the plan for rest of the roads to be made as per requirements as per section 205 & 210 of Bombay Provincial Corporation Act, 1949. For which a detail Total Station survey for necessary pockets is to be done in near future. i) Need to adopt policy of regularization or Gunthewari Act 2001 to regularize the unauthorized layouts seen in Satara Deolai area. 38

j) k) 5.3

Improvement for River, Nalla edges etc. Reforinance forest cover in Hilly areas PLANNING UNIT In the AFA, the trends of development varies from village to village. Hence

depending upon the existing development trend and to accommodate the population in a planned manner 10 planning units are proposed. The boundary of each Planning Unit is decided as per village boundaries and also the existing physical features like water bodies, hills, etc. Each Planning Unit consists of one or more villages and is designed to have selfsufficiency by providing requisite amenities and reservations in order to make it sustainable. Details of planning units are as under. Table:- 3. Planning UnitPLANNING UNIT 1 2 3 4 5 6

The infrastructural requirements for the anticipated population have been estimated. Further, land requirements for water supply (in the form of elevated storage reservoirs and ground storage reservoirs), sewerage (in the form of Sewage Treatment Plants) has also been duly considered while allocation of reservations. However, while execution; these are to be dealt with in detail by carrying out engineering survey and contour details.

5.7

PLANNING FOR SOCIAL FACILITIES AND AMENITIES A host of social facilities are proposed to cater to the needs of society at various

levels. The proposal to locate institutional reservations like Town Hall, Science Centre, administrative buildings at prominent locations will lend a distinct urban character to AFA.

47

Amenities like Market, Community Centre, and Health Centre are located near the gaothans/ settlement areas giving prime importance to the convenience of the people.

A detailed list of all the Reservation sites shown in the Development plan may be seen at Annexure IV. Conservation of Existing Habitat: The site located on the North-west side of AFA viz. Jatwada and Ohar villages is occupied by hills and forest area. The Regional Plan has identified this area as Eco-Sensitive zone. This hills and forest lands in this area are proposed to be conserved and protected.

5.8

PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING

Implementation Strategy: Water Supply: About 122 Million Liters per Day (MLD) water is supplied to Aurangabad City at present thorough three reservoirs at Harsool, Kham and Nathsagar (Jayakwadi) For this 38 water tanks of various capacities are constructed in the City area and CIDCO new Aurangabad area. Their combined storage capacity is 38 million liters. A scheme of 28 MLD capacity from Jayakwadi dam was activated in 1975 for the core city. After that it was raised upto 50 MLD in 1984. Thereafter in 1984 the scheme upscaled to 100 MLD. The details of efforts being made to augment water supply by various means in the parent city and the fringe area are discussed in chapter IX.

In the development plan locations of ESR, GSR and STPs are identified so as to achieve full advantage of natural slope. At some locations presently no DP roads are close to the reservations but care is taken to have proper roads to approach these reservations in near future. Similarly, at some locations approach road shall be provided through layouts of adjacent lands. Sewerage and Drainage: For Aurangabad City, underground drainage system was first implemented in 1972. In 1986, a new scheme was prepared by carrying out survey for the entire corporation area. Sewage purification / treatment Plants are proposed at Waladgaon-patoda of 192 million liters capacity and at Zalta (one of the 28 villages) of 5.28 million liters capacity. No such scheme is existing for the fringe area except a few sewer lines in village Satara. Considering the vast and sporadic development of the Aurangabad Fringe Area, it will be difficult and expensive to lay down the sewerage system. In the initial stages, land owners shall have to build their own Septic Tanks. Over a period of time, when the area is substantially developed sewerage system may have to be laid with the contribution of the residents and by obtaining funds from the GoM and Central Govt.

49

Street Lights: While approving layouts in the fringe area, the entire internal infrastructure including street lights will be provided by the layout holder. Whereas, for the street lights on peripheral roads/ D.P. roads the expenditure can be minimized by using the existing electric connection poles of M. S. E. D. Co. Ltd. Implementation of above engineering services shall be coordinated by the Local Self Govt. who will look after the above services along with Maintenance & Repairs.

MODIFICATIONS IN REGIONAL PLAN OF AURANGABAD.Section 27 of MR & TP Act states that : Where any area within the jurisdiction of a Planning Authority is included in a region, the Planning Authority or as the case may be, the said officer shall have regard to, and be guided by, the proposal made in any draft Regional Plan or any final Regional Plan, as the case may be while preparing the draft Development Plan : provided that, where the Planning Authority or the said officer is of the opinion that any provision of draft Regional Plan, as the case may be, needs any modification, the Planning Authority or as the case may be, the said officer may carry out such modificationa) In the case of draft Regional Plan, with the concurrence of the Regional Board; and b) In the case of final Regional Plan, with the approval of GoM

The Aurangabad Regional Plan prepared for 2021 and submitted to the GoM is awaiting final approval. The AFA is being prepared for 2031. In view of this exercise, the Government in UD will have to incorporate the plan proposals of the 28 villages, as may be approved by it in to the Regional Plan. While duly taking cognizance of draft RP proposals and the ground realities prevailing now as also development trends, some modifications in zoning proposals were inevitable. Hence a few modifications are necessary for preparation of DP which are tabulated below. A copy of this AFA Draft Development Plan shall be furnished to Regional Planning Board for information and needful action.

The dumping ground reservation is modified to Residential Zone and shifted to gut no. 120 village Sawangi due to opposition of local people and airport authority. The AMC is finding new location for dumping ground 10-12 km away from Aurangabad Airport. In the 28 villages there were a few small scattered residential pockets in the Draft Regional Plan. These have been included in the Green zone due to their isolation. However, layouts and exiting buildings approved by competent authority shall be honored for the same land use. The land under scattered industrial units in village Georai and Georai Tanda is modified to residential zone.

The road alignment traverse through the existing settlement with 6 m width only. Hence the alignment is modified and the road width is reduced considering the continuity of 24 m wide road. The proposed RP reservation is fronting on the already existing school hence this amenity space reservation shown in RP is deleted and the land converted to residential zone.

This conversion is in consonance with Govt. notification to set up an SEZ. Hence this residential area proposed in Draft RP has been compensated in nearby villages such as Zalta, Sultanpur, Hirapur, Fattepur etc.

5.10 CONSTRAINTS IN PREPARATION OF DRAFT DEVELOPMENT PLAN.The Draft Development Plan is constrained by the following: 1. Absence of Gut boundary marking on ground making it difficult to finalize the land or reservations. 2. Existing buildings, under- constructions/buildings in the fringe area not covered in available satellite image are not shown on the plan. 3. Variations in TILR map of same or adjacent gut number / boundary. 4. Building permissions granted by Gram Panchayat on layouts not sanctioned by Competent Authority. 5.11 DEVELOPMENT CONTROL REGULATIONS Development Control Regulations have been framed with the objective of ensuring smooth housing supply for the type of development normally taking place in the fringe area. Further, enabling conditions for development of social facilities by the public are also envisaged. The most important feature of this Development Plan is that, the Planning Authority can acquire public reservations sites by way of adopting DCR provision of accommodation reservations. It is also envisaged that in fringe area proposal for 52

development of plotted scheme or public housing scheme will be accepted for a minimum prize of 1 Acre. In such a case the owner should submit layout with minimum 10% area for civic amenities not listed in the report and requiring relatively lesser area and above the D.P. reservation area, if any. This 10% area will be of the net area after the DP reservation area. Further, 10% open spaces as contemplated in DCR. This will enable the planning authority to provide more social facilities / amenities within the fringe area. Such facilities will accommodate users like Local area offices, Telephone office, Milk booths, Post & telegraph offices, Library, Balwadi, Mahila Vikas Kendras, Police stations, Electric substation, Utility plots, Public Parking, any other utility / amenity / public convenience users as may be decided by the competent authority/SPA. Incentive FSI for Land pooling The person intending to develop several parcels of land situated contiguously shall submit a single application for development of such lands and shall be eligible for the incentive FSI ranging between 5% to maximum 25% over and above the permissible FSI depending upon the size of the consolidated proposal and will be eligible on the net plot area i.e. area without D.P. reservation. The provision of incentive FSI is explained in detail in the DCR prepared for AFA.

Mode of carrying out D.P. Reservations: The public reservations sites in the DP shall be developed in the manner specified in the Development Control Regulations (DCR). There are three alternatives elaborated in greater detail in DCR. These alternatives are as follows:

Alternative I: Amenity Developed and managed by Owner Generally owner is allowed to develop and manage the amenity indicated.

Alternative II: Partial construction (combined structure) with independent access and/or premises.

53

In this alternative the owner is allowed to construct a combined structure and utilize permissible FSI of the plot for permissible use of the adjoining zone without taking into account the built up area utilized for constructing the amenity. The owner constructs the amenity within the framework of prevailing DCRs and hands it over to planning authority. However, in no case, BUA of the amenity shall be less than 50% of the permissible FSI of the plot except where; in the opinion of the Planning Authority any amenity needs lesser BUA.

Alternative III: Monetary compensation by Planning Authority In this alternative the owner is allowed to surrender the land under reservation to the competent authority/ planning authority in lieu of giving monetary compensation to the owner as per the prevailing policy.

MANNER OF CARRYING OUT DEVELOPMENT OF VARIOUS D.P. RESERVATIONS: The manner of carrying out the development of D.P. reservation and alternative available for each have been elaborated in the Development Control Regulations published along with this document. Height restriction For all the structures in the vicinity of aerodrome, the maximum height permitted shall be subject to NOC from Civil Aviation Authorities.

CHAPTER VI PROPOSALS6.1 POPULATION FORECASTING From the study of existing land use, regional structure and rate of population growth, it seems that non-agricultural development has taken place to a large extent in the fringe area of Aurangabad Municipal Corporation. Existing Industrial area- 3136.74 Ha. Location Area in Ha. Proposed Industrial area-1887.27Ha. Location Area in Ha. Shendra Waluj 813.69 1073.58

Aurangabad 34.95 Chikalthana Shendra Waluj 719.68 860.12 1521.99

6.1.1 POPULATION FORECASTING BASED ON NATURAL GROWTH In the Regional Plan report the population forecast for Aurangabad Municipal Corporation is 14.63 Lac upto year 2021. Population forecast for AFA upto year 2021 is 0.99 Lac considering the natural growth rate. Apart from this additional population required to be accommodated within AFA due to workforce likely to find employment in MIDCs expansion program for Waluj and Shendra estates is forecast at 1.20 Lac (inclusive of service sector employment ) Thus in total 14.63 + 0.99 + 1.20 = 16.82 Lac population will be there in AMC and AFA by 2021. However as per Regional Plan the population that can be accommodated within the AMC limit is estimated at 13.63 Lac only. Thus AFA has to accommodate 16.82 13.63 = 3.19 Lac population by the year 2021. If this population is projected upto year 2031 by considering decadal growth rate of 35% then the expected population will be 4.28 Lac, say this will be around 4.30 Lac.

55

6.1.2 EXPONENTIAL METHOD FOR ESTIMATION OF POPULATION The Exponential method is alternatively used for population forecasting. For fringe area information of three decades is available. Hence the same is used for the population projection.

6.1.3 POPULATION CONSIDERED FOR DDP OF AURANGABAD FRINGE AREA Considering the population estimates projected by the Regional Plan and the exponential method, it is evident that the population of 4.30 Lac estimated for 2031 on the basis of Regional Plan estimate for 2021, will be a safer assumption. Hence for preparation of DDP of Aurangabad Fringe Area the population of 4.30 Lac has been considered. Accordingly the requirements for Social Facilities, Public Utilities, and Open Spaces etc have been worked out. Similarly compatible activities and their extent in various zones have been proposed. This is detailed out as under:

6.2

NO DEVELOPMENT ZONE Water bodies, forest land, green belt together work out to 2602.77 Ha. This zone is marked as No Development Zone. The purpose of this zone is to preserve the present environment.

6.3

GREEN ZONE Low lying areas and / or areas having medium or low development potential due to their distant locations from the developed pockets are designated as Green Zones. The area proposed under such Green Zone is 6117.80 Ha. The FSI proposed as 0.3.

6.4

RESIDENTIAL ZONE The agricultural activity is bound to come under the development pressures due to surrounding urban development as agriculture would become increasingly nonremunerative over a period of time. Hence select pockets have been proposed for residential use. The area proposed under such Residential Zone is 3452.42 Ha. For this zone, the maximum permissible FSI is 1(one).

6.5

COMMERCIAL ZONE The commercial activities as mentioned in the Development Control Regulations are permissible on different widths of roads. Moreover, a commercial hub is proposed at village Sundarwadi where activity of Malls, multiplex shall be permitted as per provision of DCR in an area of 17.23 Ha.

57

6.6

GENERAL AND SERVICE INDUSTRIES / IT PARK The major projects coming in the AFA will provide economic base to the town and hence separate Industrial Zone is proposed. It will allow non-polluting industries such as gems and Jewelry processing, garments, software development, assembly of electronic goods, etc. in the designated industrial areas and IT Park. The proposed industrial area is located adjacent to the existing additional MIDC at village Georai and the service industries where predominant IT Park is to be accommodated is proposed on the eastern side adjacent to Jalna road as suggested by MIDC. This area works out to be 377.11 Ha. This shall provide employment to the Fringe area and even the parent city. The existing industries which are not falling in proposed industrial zone as per Development Plan, will not be permitted any alteration / expansion / modification for industrial use in future.

6.7

DISTRIBUTION OF SOCIAL FACILITIES Considering the population estimation and its distribution in the fringe area, the requirements of various social facilities and amenities have been worked out. The sites for such social facilities / amenities are provided in the Development Plan as reservations taking into account the existing amenities catering the need of the people. The details of these facilities provided in the plan are given in the Annexure II placed in the report. Considering the existing and proposed development, the distribution of social facilities is done in the 10 planning units.

6.14

TRUCK AND BUS TERMINAL In the planning area since provision is made for Industrial area it will give rise to the truck traffic in the region. Two suitable sites for Truck Terminal are proposed in the planning area; one along the ring road at northern site in village Krishnapurwadi and the other in the southern part at Beed byepass at Village Zalta, together having a total area of 6.88 Ha. Similarly two bus termini are proposed in the fringe area one adjacent to Jalna road in village Sundarwadi and the other in village Satara. The total area of the termini is 5.75Ha. Table No.12 Truck and Bus TerminalTotal NO. 2 2 1 USE TRUCK TERMINUS BUS TERMINUS RAILWAY STATION AREA 68787.25 57481.36 48374.57 TOTAL 126268.6 48374.57 SQ.M.

6.15

SLAUGHTER HOUSE AND DUMPING GROUND: This facility being sensitive in nature normally location of this activity is to be decided in consultation with the local authority. The land admeasuring 16.0 ha. located at Mandaki (one of the villages of AFA) has been used by Aurangabad Municipal Corporation as a Garbage Dumping Site. The processing of garbage using segregation technique and sanitary land filling is adopted by A.M.C. The area is located on the North-east side of the fringe area. Due to opposition from the local residents as well as Airport authority the Honble High Court directed to shift the existing dumping ground 10-12 km away from the Aurangabad Airport. The Aurangabad Municipal Corporation is in search of a new site. Therefore considering the need of both corporation area and fringe area, a new site for the dumping ground is proposed in the village Sawangi situated in the Northen part of the 61

notified area, admeasuring an area of 26 Ha. The site is at an average distance of 10 to 12 km away from the Airport of Aurangabad. The site where the proposal for dumping ground is proposed is a Govt. Land.

6.16

RECREATION The city level recreational facilities are expected to come in the Green Zone such as Clubs, Amusement Parks, Resorts, etc. However recreation open spaces in the form of Gardens, Play Grounds etc are evenly distributed in the Planning area. A list of the same is placed at Annexure.

6.17

RECREATION CLUB The facility of area 5.0 Ha has been provided in Planning Unit No. 6 along 24m wide road there in Sports Complex / Stadium / Swimming Pool / Museum / Drama Theatre / Art Gallery shall be allowed. It is expected that the facility shall be develop by public or private agencies.

6.18

TOURISM

6.18.1 ECO-VILLAGE Development of Arts & Crafts as mentioned in the Aurangabad Regional Plan is proposed in village Jatwada. In this unique village, local artists from the surrounding area can introduce their art creations to visitors coming from all classes of the society. The visitor is introduced to the lifestyle of the ancestors. Through this project, the urban tourists who have an illusion that life is not possible without electricity can get experience of such an adventurous lifestyle without modern facilities and amenities. Due to such project, the visitors could get detailed knowledge about the nature in an exciting manner. This village is developed in such a manner that in it the visitors can unify with the nature and can behave as an eco-

62

friend. International tourists could study closely the social life, living standard, folk art of the people in this region. This village will be developed with 0.15 FSI. 6.18.2 ATISHAYA KSHETRA, JATWADA Jatwada, about 10 Km. from Aurangabad city is full of natural beauty. The approach road to this village traverses hill slopes and is almost parallel to a river below. This village is bounded by hills on all the four sides and has picturesque natural beauty. By storing natural water and improving condition of road in this area the village has potential to be developed as a tourist attraction. Motels/settlement-like cottages can be provided at this place to increase the footfalls of visitors. From this place a road leads to the Khultabad-Sillod road. The tourists therefore enjoy the scenic beauty by using this route instead of Aurangabad road. In AFA, the Jain Temple at Jatwada and the Khandoba temple at village Satara are spots worth visiting. Though they have the potential, they are yet to be developed as tourist spots. Broad publicity of these tourist spots, beautification of their approach roads, provision of facilities amenities at local level related to tourism, art galleries by local artists and artisans from the adjoining areas could be some of the measures to improve the tourism potential.

The Aurangabad city and its surroundings have an array of tourist spots like Himayatbag, Nahar-E-Ambari, Gate built in Aurangzebs period, Soneri Mahal , Shahagunj Mosque, Red Mosque, Noukhan Place, Regional & Shivaji Maharaj Museum, University Garden, Aurangabad Caves, Panchakki, Bibi-ka-Makbra etc. If these are combined with the spots in AFA, an attractive sight seeing package can be offered. 63

6.19 ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDINGS As this use is related to administrative allowed in Residential zone as well as potential area along various roads in Green Zone as per building and development control regulation, no area has been specifically designated for this purpose.

6.20

CONCEPT OF ACCOMMODATION RESERVATION The GoM had formulated a policy to allow the land owners to develop the reservations such as hospitals, dispensaries, libraries, etc. in a commercially viable manner. However, CIDCO had further liberalized the policy to have more options for development of reservations to the land owners. One of the options allowed under this head by CIDCO was to permit the owner to retain a part of the land from certain reservations for developing it according to the zone considering that such part of land stands released from reservation without effecting procedure of Section 37 of the MR & TP Act, 1966 in lieu of surrendering the balance land along with 50% BUA constructed for and handed over to the Planning Authority at the mutually agreed cost. The owner can utilize the full FSI on the remaining land. (For details refer relevant DCR provision in this regard)

CHAPTER VII 7.7.1

TRANSPORTATIONINTRODUCTION Mobility plays an important role for faster development of an area. The inter urban as well as intra urban travel infrastructure needs to be carefully developed. This aspect is highly significant in planning and development of new cities. It provides accessibility to the spatially dispersed activities, enables mobility of people and goods and integrates the different sectoral sub-systems. An integrated transport plan for this area with regional linkages and a hierarchical network for good intra-urban travel is proposed.

7.2

REGIONAL CONTEXT

7.2.1 ROAD CONNECTIVITY Aurangabad is well connected by roads to various major cities of Maharashtra and other states. Road connectivity is excellent and roads connecting to Pune, Nagpur, Beed, Mumbai are upgraded into four lane highways. National highway NH-211 (Dhule-Aurangabad-Solapur) passes through the city. In addition to this, several major district roads like Paithan Road, Beed Bypass etc. and village roads are existing.

65

7.2.2 RAIL CONNECTIVITY Aurangabad station is located on the Kachiguda-Manmad section of Nanded division of South Central Railway (SCR). Aurangabad now comes under the newly created Nanded (NED) Division of SCR. The Manmad-Kachiguda Broad gauge railway line which emanates from the Mumbai-Bhusawal-Howrah trunk route at Manmad is an important artery of traffic in Aurangabad district. The importance of this line lies in the fact that it has opened for traffic the fertile agricultural tract in Marathwada region. It also serves as a link between Mumbai and Secunderabad in Andhra Pradesh. Aurangabad has more number of trains to Hydrabad than to any other city. Aurangabad has rail connectivity with Manmad, Aurangabad, Nanded, Parbhani, Parli Vaijnath, latur, Osmanabad, Gangakhed, Mudkhed, Adilabad, Nagpur, Basar, Nizamabad, Nasik, Mumbai, Pune, Daund, Mahbubnagar, Kurnool, Kadapa, Renigunta, Tirupati, Katpadi, Erode, Madurai and Kachiguda (KCG). Presently three railway stations are existing in the Auragabad Muncipal Corporaton area. The major one is Aurangabad Railway station. The other two are Mukundwadi Railway station and Chikkalthana Railway station. The latter is near to the existing Aurangabad airport.

7.2.3

AIR CONNECTIVITY Aurangabad city has an International airport. Recently there were flights made 66

available to all the people traveling to Hajj pilgrimage. Aurangabad Airport has connecting flights to Delhi, Udaipur, Mumbai, Jaipur as well as Hyderabad. 7.3 PROPOSED TRANSPORT NETWORK

7.3.1 ROADS Aurangabad has a very good network of roads, connecting various parts of the region with National Highways, State highways and major district roads. The proposed network in the fringe area of Aurangabad is prepared by taking cognizance of these existing roads. It is planned to have the road network system as under: a. b. c. d. e. Major Arterial road (M.S.H) / Ring Road Arterial road Distributor roads (M.D.R) Collector roads (O.D.R) Access roads (VR) - 60m -- 45 m - 30m - 24 m - 15 - 18 m - 9 - 12 m

Major Arterial road (M.S.H)/ Ring Road 60-45 m: This system of roads, serves as the principal network. Significant inter and intra urban travel such as between business district and surrounding residential area or between major suburban centers take place on this system. This is equivalent to the major state highway. The 60m Ring road proposed by PWD has been maintained as it is which connects major roads such as Jalna road, Jalgaon road and Pune road. In the southern portion a 30m Ring road is proposed which makes the circular ring around the entire City. This system of roads is mainly used for the city level traffic and connects to road network of the state and national roads of Maharashtra. The proposed major arterial road has a reservation of 45m, which includes 9 m service roads on either side. It is proposed to carry out the construction in different phases based on priority.

Arterial road/ Ring Road (State Highways) - 30 m: These are functionally similar to arterials but with lower level of travel mobility. An arterial road carries large volumes of traffic between areas in urban centers. The reservation for this proposed arterial road is 30 m and this road shall be of 6 lane configuration.

Distributor roads (M.D.R) - 24 m: These are important roads in a district serving area of production and markets and connecting this with other activity centers or with the arterial roads. These roads are also distributing traffic from the arterial 67

roads. They also a serve as a principal network for the region. The width of these proposed roads is 24m and of they shall be of 4 lane configuration. Collector road (O.D.R)- 15 18m: These are roads serving rural areas of production and providing them with outlet to market centers, taluka (tehsil) headquarters,
