Master Plan status in CMDA expansion area
STEPS FOR CMDA TO START FUNCTION IN ADDED AREAS 7

8. Contd…
● Existing Master plans apply for core areas alone, Masterplans for
expanded CLPA areas are under progress
● Further, areas within expansion but not having consented master
plan, then in such areas PP cannot be issued by CMDA until Master
Plan is prepared and got consent of the Govt.
● Hence, there must be an arrangement for issuing PP in such non-
plan areas shall be planned prior to CMDA start functioning in the
expansion area.
STEPS FOR CMDA TO START FUNCTION IN ADDED AREAS 8

● CMDA to be ready with work allocation for the staffs of new zonal

● As per the announcements, 4 UDA’s are formed
i. Coimbatore
ii. Madurai
iii. Tiruppur
iv. Hosur
● Sizeable cadre strength to be spared for the UDAs. (Tentatively 70
post based on Govt approval of UDA staff pattern)
● Simultaneously regional offices for the rest of the district for the area
other than the UDA need to continue to function as separate offices
with Skeleton strength.
● Above could only be achieved by re-distribution of DTCP staff to be
gained from CMDA expansion areas

SCANTY CADRE STRENGTH OF DTCP 21

22. • This department is now managing the works in the district offices with
the existing staff strength.
• Department has to initially support the need of urban development
authorities by sharing the staff on deputation.
• This could only be achieved by redistributing the staff in the present
offices at Chengalpattu, Kanchipuram, Tiruvallur and Ranipet
• Due to paucity of staff as pointed above, deputation/ redeployment/
surrender of staff to CMDA for the expansion area may not be
feasible.
Total sanctioned Technical staff 534
Vacancy 175 (33%)
