Good urban governance enhances city’s competitiveness and
contributes to sustainability. A number of institutions are involved
in governing a city. They include the state government
departments, local bodies and parastatals. While the departments
are part of government, the local bodies and parastatals are
created through Acts of legislature or government orders.

Objectives of APTIDCO:
• New township in municipal area due to rapid urbanization
(but for last 3 years they are just catering with the 3rd vertical
of PMAY)
• Remove and relocate slums
• Construction of houses
Functions of APTIDCO:
Formed under GoAP in 2016, having office in 13 district
of Andra Pradesh
• Township planning

-Primary school
-Health care facilities
ORGANIZATIONAL SETUP, LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK
INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK
• Andra Pradesh is in a habit of making several organizations and corporations under Companies Act 1956.. For everything they make new Corporations.
• For PMAY 3rd (APTIDCO) and 4th (APSHCL) vertical they have made separate corporations looking into it.
• The governance of the city is characterized by multiplicity of agencies. The agencies have their own priorities, procedures, lines of accountability, financing patterns,
which often may not be in conformity with those of the Municipal Corporation and the ULBs.
• Any city’s governance depends upon effective organizational structure and adequate financial inflows.
• Although the city of Vijayawada has been in the forefront of implementing reforms and good governance practices for the past six to seven years, these reform initiatives
did not really achieve the desired results.
• The Government of Andhra Pradesh have enacted Andhra Pradesh Capital Region
Development Authority Act, 2014 (Act.No.11 of 2014) for the declaration of the
New Capital Area for the State of the Andhra Pradesh and establishment of the
Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development.
 Preparation and revision of comprehensive development plan.
 Approval of Layout and Building plans of areas outside the Municipal Corporations
 General Town Planning (GTP) scheme revised by APCRDA
 Land acquisition and Rehabilitation & Resettlement, Land Pooling

APPROVALS:
• APCRDA as the planning agency is having the jurisdiction
of handling everything in the APCRDA region including the
approval power, land acquisition, revision of master plan.
(DTCP is just provided technical assistance).
• The manpower has increased significantly and their office
goes efficiently for 24x7, thus, this has led to the
successful land pooling scheme of Amaravati to happen.
• The Chief Minister on weekly basis visit the office and
takes the update on how the progress is taking place.
• L&T
• TATA STEEL
• SHAPORJEE
• NCC
• JCC
• There is also no
mechanism to project
and ensure
infrastructure provision
based on built up
analysis from time to
time. This results in
conflict between local
bodies and APCRDA.
• The APCRDA prepares the
master plan for the entire
area which provides for
common infrastructure
systems and amenities,
which transcend
municipal boundaries.
However, the real
problem is noticed in plan
implementation, where in
the metropolitan area
most developed are not
in an integrated manner
taking into account
geographical factors and
the existing and proposed
built up patterns.

• All approvals/sanctions of buildings and

• Choosing of beneficiary for different

• Operation and maintenance of public

•There is a lack of
coordination between
urban local bodies and
parastatals in areas such as
inter-municipal, inter-
district and inter-state
roads etc.
• It is necessary to have
two pronged
approaches for the
reforms, the first
creating a front end,
the next strengthening
the back end to
effectively cater to the
front end.
• On reality, what is
happening in the case
of Vijayawada is that
front end systems have
been created but the
back end systems have
not been effectively
upgraded/ geared up
to meet the influx of
the kind of
information/
complaints that came

• The result is improper

Government Orders
Government Orders are
issued by the executive
on the basis of the
powers given to it, either
by a specific act or the
past conventions.
Importance of G.O.s in
the state of Andhra
Pradesh :
The G.O.s occupy a
special place in the state
of A.P, since all the
building bye laws and
approval processes are
given in the form of G.O.s
and their amendments
On the onset of the
proposal of the capital
city, the building bye-
laws and approval
processes of the capital
city were specifically
compiled into a zonal
development plan.

& Andhra Pradesh
Building Rules 2017
(GO 119), (GO 223)
High Rise Building means a building with 18 meters and above
(including stilt floor) in height. However, chimneys, cooling
towers, boiler rooms/ lift machine rooms, cold storage and
other non-working areas in case of industrial buildings and
water tanks and architectural features in respect of other
buildings may be permitted as a non-High rise Building.
Row Houses
Row Buildings means a row of houses with only front, rear and
interior open spaces.
NON-HIGH RISE (Below 18m)
Detached building
Includes a building with walls and roofs independent of any
other building and with open spaces on all sides within the same
plot.
HIGH RISE (18m and above)
GROUP DEVELOPMENT SCHEME (Non – High Rise & High Rise)
‘Group Development Scheme’ is reckoned as development of
Buildings for any use in a Campus or Site of 4000sq.m and above
in area and could be row houses, semi-detached, detached
Houses, Apartment blocks or High-Rise buildings or mix or
combination of the above.
Cluster housing
Cluster housing refers to a development in which houses are
situated in groups/clusters close to each other with larger areas
of open space within the development form
• The FSI component has been removed from the Andhra Pradesh building regulations since 2007.
• The present framework of AP-Byelaws is based on the following three major parameters-
a) Road Width b) Plot Size c) Setback
• Maximum height and setbacks are stipulated as per the abutting road width for the plot sizes.
• Also there is no variation with respect to the use of land or building activity on a certain plot which means the regulations
are even for residential and commercial typology of buildings.
• Stilt Floor meant for parking is excluded from the
permissible height. Height of stilt floor shall not be less
than 2.5m
• In case of parking floors where mechanical system and
lift are provided, height of such parking floor shall not be
less than 4.5m.
• Parking floors in High rise buildings are excluded from
calculation of height of building.

• *In case of Sites in Category-A, if a Site is abutting to a road which is less than 9m in width, a building may be permitted with a maximum height of
10m in such sites by insisting widening of road to 9m or lesser width as per the circulation network approved by the Competent authority. The site
affected in such cases shall be handed over to the Local Body/UDA/APCRDA through registered gift deed for which relaxations can be
considered in situ as prescribed in these Rules. TDR generated in such sites will not be allowed to utilize for construction of additional built-up area in
congested areas. Buildings upto 18m height may be permitted in the sites of Category–A if the site is having access through the existing 12m wide
road.
• **In case of Sites in Category-B, if a Site is abutting to a road which is less than 9m in width, Individual Residential Building may be permitted with a
maximum height of 12m, after leaving 4.5m from the Centre Line of such road for widening and the same shall be handed over to the Local Body
and shall leave the prescribed setback as per Table after the said road widening portion. No relaxations are permissible in such cases.
• The road widths are
determining the type of
residential typologies
allowed.

regulations of 1998 with
multiple tables with
different statements in
2017 a consolidated
table comprised of all
regulations was
introduced to increase
the ease of
understanding amongst
the practitioners and
common people.
• For all the regulations
like setbacks,
permissible height,
parking provision etc
one has to refer to one
consolidated table-
“Minimum Setbacks and
Permissible Height
Regulation Table”.
From the plot size, building heights are determined.
While setbacks are determined from building heights and road widths.
Indirectly plot size is also determining setbacks.
**Buildings of height above 15m and below 18m in Sl.Nos.9, 10 and 11 above,
shall be permitted only if such plots abut minimum 12m wide roads only.

• The setbacks as mentioned in the G.O. MS.NO. 119, 10%

calculating the maximum ground coverage (building
footprint). In this case the size of plots was increased from
2000m2 to 25000m2 along with the number of floors from 18 to

• It was observed that for plot size upto 10000m2 the optimum
FAR is achieved best at lower or mid range heights allowed,
but as the plot size goes beyond 10000m2 the feasibilty
becomes directly proportional to the building height, wider

ADVANTAGES :
• a perfect urban development tool as it facilitates the development of suburban locations.
DISADVANTAGES :
• Developers use it as a tool to maximize the saleable area in a few prime locations. This excessive construction has resulted in
congestion in the suburbs, haphazard and unplanned development, and intense pressure on infrastructure
• it has lead to an increase in the real estate prices. Since the TDR acquisition cost is loaded onto the project cost, the
developers increase the final pricing of the project.
In order to curb
the loopholes and
shooting of real
estate prices, the
Government
should have some
mechanism to
keep a check on
the quantum of
TDR available in
the market and
the trading price.
TDR programs depend on a careful
balance between sending and receiving
areas; the demand and the price
landowners are willing to pay to increase
the density of development in the receiving
area needs to balance with the willingness
of landowners in the sending areas to sell
their development rights and at an
appropriate cost.

ANALYSIS :
AMENDMENTS TO MASTER PLAN :
On occasion that the authority finds that the
community supports an initiative that is not in
conformance with the master plan, it is
necessary to amend the master plan in a
consistent manner to reflect the will of the
community.
• Surveys state that
in the past 5
years, more than
40% deviation
from the
proposed
landuse has
been observed
iin the
Vijayawada and
Guntur regions
• This shows that
despite the
norms being
strict, the
enforcement is
not effective,
since the final
deision is
objective to the 3
members of the
committee.

EXAMPLE OF AN UNAPPROVED BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
The Building Penalization
Scheme (BPS) means
large number of
unauthorized layouts and
unauthorized buildings
are cropping up in all
urban areas.
Government with a view
to regulate the
unauthorized
constructions came up
with a Penalization of
unauthorized
constructions and
constructions in
deviations of the
sanctioned plan.
This brings unauthorized
constructions into
planning fold and also to
remove the threat or fear
of demolition.
it is a one-time
opportunity to get
unauthorized
constructions regulated.

PROBLEMS ISSUES POTENTIALS
Absence of specific byelaws and density for
different zones/areas (Old city/congested areas
have the same byelaws as compared to the rest
of the city)
1. Increase in congestion
2. Load on infrastructure
3. Increase in unauthorized construction due to norms
that become unrealistic in certain parts of the region .
Separate byelaws and specific density
norms for various areas need to be
introduced.
Lack of detailed ZDPs at the local level 1. No planned open spaces in neighbourhood level,
decreasing the built open-ratio.
2. Uncontrolled spatial/locational change in land use.
(Causing environmental degradation)
3. Absence of Neighbourhood level infrastructure
facilities.
4. On Street parking causing congestion
1. Formation of detailed development
plan at neighbourhood level.
2. Inclusion of URDPFI’s guidelines for
social infrastructure.
3. Amendment for Land Policies.
Absence of EWS/LIG housing in Private sector Subdivision of plots and development in phases by
developers by paying shelter fee over providing EWS
housing .
Amendment in the A.P. Building Bye-laws
for provision of EWS/LIG housing category
Violation of Bye-laws
a) Open space/green strip Lack of Maintenance or removal of provided green strips
or open spaces after inspection and provision of OC and
CC
Taxation charges and penalties for improper maintenance
are not duly collected
Timely inspection after issue of
Occupation and completion certificates
b)setbacks Extension of balconies/plinth area into the minimum
setback area
c) Building height Construction of extra floors by misuse of
penalisation/regularisation scheme
Amendment in the bye-laws
Misuse of TDR 1. Purchase price of TDR increasing the primary cost of
Du’s.
2. No ceiling on TDR in the receiving areas irrespective of
the congestion factor
1. Limits on selling price of TDR
2. Restriction of the number of floors
constructed considering the holding
capacity of the surrounding area.
Building Penalization Charges are much lower
than approval charges
1. Increase in unplanned development due to easy
availability of regularisation
1. Appropriate increase in Building
Penalization charge

PROBLEMS ISSUES POTENTIAL
CITY LEVEL • APHB • Inefficiency of technical staff – poor record
maintenance.
• Delay in construction because of insufficient
funds
• Lack of inter-Departmental
Coordination
Creating gap between the demand and supply Betterment in reforms can be done to the areas of
e-governance and better citizen interface.
SUB-
SYSTEM
PUBLIC
HOUSING
• APTIDCO • APTIDCO only catering with Public housing in
APCRDA region, and not outside APCRDA.
• PPP model can come up to built Public housing
outside APCRDA region
• APHB • Main agenda of the board – provision of LIG
houses has not been followed.
• Lack of proper maintenance of the building
structures in APHB colony.
• APHB should take responsibility for
maintenance/renovation of the houses with
effective monitoring.
• No strict initiative/rules to
stop illegal houses.
• Builders get to construct an extra floor just with
the help of regularization scheme and penalty.
• Timely inspection and monitoring required
after occupation and completion certificate.
• No provision of adequate access roads leading to
the building. Thus violating the bye-laws
UNAUTHORIZED
COLONY
• Lack of policy in fringe areas. • Growth of informal subsystem coming up in the
fringe or peripheral areas.
• Need of a policy in the peripheral development
and control.
• Minimum plot size of 100 SQ.M
is not followed
• Not affordable for all people to maintain the
minimum plot size in a layout as per norms to
100 SQ.M
• Reduce standard for the min plot size of
100SQ.M in bye-laws so that it can be
affordable by the people.
• Lacks in documentation • No data regarding how much is the growth and
transformation of the unauthorized colony.
• GIS based technology can be adapted for
approval and sanctioning. It can also be linked
with all other development to know the
growth and transformation.
SLUMS &
SQATTERS
• Only 2 out of 15 shelter homes
are constructed by VMC.
• VMC not using the shelter fee submitted by the
developers, because of no land availability.
• Financial aid is there but VMC should earmark
area for setting up shelter homes.
URBAN VILLAGE • Dumping of waste in canals
and open spaces.
• Causes environmental issues and polluting the
canals.
• Strict rule should be made by ULBs and fine
should be taken for dumping waste.
OLD CITY • No specific bye-laws for
congested and abadi areas
• Degradation in the basic quality of life • A section can be made in the DCR dealing with
such areas, to control the density and
accommodate more plots and people
EMPLOYEERS
HOUSING
• Lacks in providing and
maintenance of employers
housing by different institutions
• Most houses are in Dilapidated condition • Separate organization can be set up looking
after affordable employers housing for
different organizations, within the city core.

For everything they make new Corporations. • For PMAY 3rd (APTIDCO) and 4th (APSHCL) vertical they have made separate corporations looking into it. • The governance of the city is characterized by multiplicity of agencies. The agencies have their own priorities, procedures, lines of accountability, financing patterns, which often may not be in conformity with those of the Municipal Corporation and the ULBs. • Any city’s governance depends upon effective organizational structure and adequate financial inflows. • Although the city of Vijayawada has been in the forefront of implementing reforms and good governance practices for the past six to seven years, these reform initiatives did not really achieve the desired results. • The Government of Andhra Pradesh have enacted Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority Act, 2014 (Act.No.11 of 2014) for the declaration of the New Capital Area for the State of the Andhra Pradesh and establishment of the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development.  Preparation and revision of comprehensive development plan.  Approval of Layout and Building plans of areas outside the Municipal Corporations  General Town Planning (GTP) scheme revised by APCRDA  Land acquisition and Rehabilitation & Resettlement, Land Pooling  Environment & Social management Andra Pradesh Capital Region- Development Authority (APCRDA) - 2015 Functions of APCRDA: Objectives of APCRDA: • To develop the region and coming up new capital Amaravati • Total 961 Revenue villages, 1006 villages looked after by APCRDA. • Jurisdiction= 8352.69 SQ.KM Andra Pradesh Township and Infrastructure Development Corporation (APTIDCO) APCRDA - For Building and Layout Approval PROJECTS:  PMAY NTR-NAGAR(shear wall technology)  8000 houses under JNNURM  28152 houses sanctioned under GOI  10624 houses constructed in Jakhumpuri O&M by VMC PMAY (state level modal agency) Affordable Housing In Partnership (3rd Vertical) Relocation of slums along the hills and canal in Vijayawada Beneficiaries identified by Municipal Collector and Commissioner (VMC) Construction of houses for the urban poor done by APTIDCO APCRDA (DTCP Technical Assistance for approval) PLOT AREA > 1000 SQ.M APCRDA (Director) Layout- Plot >10 Ha APPROVALS: • APCRDA as the planning agency is having the jurisdiction of handling everything in the APCRDA region including the approval power, land acquisition, revision of master plan. (DTCP is just provided technical assistance). • The manpower has increased significantly and their office goes efficiently for 24x7, thus, this has led to the successful land pooling scheme of Amaravati to happen. • The Chief Minister on weekly basis visit the office and takes the update on how the progress is taking place. • L&T • TATA STEEL • SHAPORJEE • NCC • JCC • There is also no mechanism to project and ensure infrastructure provision based on built up analysis from time to time. This results in conflict between local bodies and APCRDA. • The APCRDA prepares the master plan for the entire area which provides for common infrastructure systems and amenities, which transcend municipal boundaries. However, the real problem is noticed in plan implementation, where in the metropolitan area most developed are not in an integrated manner taking into account geographical factors and the existing and proposed built up patterns.

    ADVANTAGES : • aperfect urban development tool as it facilitates the development of suburban locations. DISADVANTAGES : • Developers use it as a tool to maximize the saleable area in a few prime locations. This excessive construction has resulted in congestion in the suburbs, haphazard and unplanned development, and intense pressure on infrastructure • it has lead to an increase in the real estate prices. Since the TDR acquisition cost is loaded onto the project cost, the developers increase the final pricing of the project. In order to curb the loopholes and shooting of real estate prices, the Government should have some mechanism to keep a check on the quantum of TDR available in the market and the trading price. TDR programs depend on a careful balance between sending and receiving areas; the demand and the price landowners are willing to pay to increase the density of development in the receiving area needs to balance with the willingness of landowners in the sending areas to sell their development rights and at an appropriate cost.

Increase in congestion 2. Load on infrastructure 3. Increase in unauthorized construction due to norms that become unrealistic in certain parts of the region . Separate byelaws and specific density norms for various areas need to be introduced. Lack of detailed ZDPs at the local level 1. No planned open spaces in neighbourhood level, decreasing the built open-ratio. 2. Uncontrolled spatial/locational change in land use. (Causing environmental degradation) 3. Absence of Neighbourhood level infrastructure facilities. 4. On Street parking causing congestion 1. Formation of detailed development plan at neighbourhood level. 2. Inclusion of URDPFI’s guidelines for social infrastructure. 3. Amendment for Land Policies. Absence of EWS/LIG housing in Private sector Subdivision of plots and development in phases by developers by paying shelter fee over providing EWS housing . Amendment in the A.P. Building Bye-laws for provision of EWS/LIG housing category Violation of Bye-laws a) Open space/green strip Lack of Maintenance or removal of provided green strips or open spaces after inspection and provision of OC and CC Taxation charges and penalties for improper maintenance are not duly collected Timely inspection after issue of Occupation and completion certificates b)setbacks Extension of balconies/plinth area into the minimum setback area c) Building height Construction of extra floors by misuse of penalisation/regularisation scheme Amendment in the bye-laws Misuse of TDR 1.

Plan 1st Year, 2nd Semester PROBLEMS ISSUES POTENTIAL CITY LEVEL • APHB • Inefficiency of technical staff – poor record maintenance. • Delay in construction because of insufficient funds • Lack of inter-Departmental Coordination Creating gap between the demand and supply Betterment in reforms can be done to the areas of e-governance and better citizen interface. SUB- SYSTEM PUBLIC HOUSING • APTIDCO • APTIDCO only catering with Public housing in APCRDA region, and not outside APCRDA. • PPP model can come up to built Public housing outside APCRDA region • APHB • Main agenda of the board – provision of LIG houses has not been followed. • Lack of proper maintenance of the building structures in APHB colony. • APHB should take responsibility for maintenance/renovation of the houses with effective monitoring. • No strict initiative/rules to stop illegal houses. • Builders get to construct an extra floor just with the help of regularization scheme and penalty. • Timely inspection and monitoring required after occupation and completion certificate. • No provision of adequate access roads leading to the building. Thus violating the bye-laws UNAUTHORIZED COLONY • Lack of policy in fringe areas. • Growth of informal subsystem coming up in the fringe or peripheral areas. • Need of a policy in the peripheral development and control. • Minimum plot size of 100 SQ.M is not followed • Not affordable for all people to maintain the minimum plot size in a layout as per norms to 100 SQ.M • Reduce standard for the min plot size of 100SQ.M in bye-laws so that it can be affordable by the people. • Lacks in documentation • No data regarding how much is the growth and transformation of the unauthorized colony. • GIS based technology can be adapted for approval and sanctioning. It can also be linked with all other development to know the growth and transformation. SLUMS & SQATTERS • Only 2 out of 15 shelter homes are constructed by VMC. • VMC not using the shelter fee submitted by the developers, because of no land availability. • Financial aid is there but VMC should earmark area for setting up shelter homes. URBAN VILLAGE • Dumping of waste in canals and open spaces. • Causes environmental issues and polluting the canals. • Strict rule should be made by ULBs and fine should be taken for dumping waste. OLD CITY • No specific bye-laws for congested and abadi areas • Degradation in the basic quality of life • A section can be made in the DCR dealing with such areas, to control the density and accommodate more plots and people EMPLOYEERS HOUSING • Lacks in providing and maintenance of employers housing by different institutions • Most houses are in Dilapidated condition • Separate organization can be set up looking after affordable employers housing for different organizations, within the city core.
