3 Bardez villages get land use map

PANAJI:

North Goa Planning and Development Authority

(NGPDA) resolved to adopt the land use map and land use register of Arpora-Nagoa-Parra planning area as part of the process to prepare an Outline Development Plan (ODP) for these

Bardez

villages.

In a public notice on Saturday, endorsed by NGPDA member secretary, R K Pandita, the stakeholders have been informed about the approval of the map and register with some modifications based on a report by a sub-committee.

The process of preparing the land use map and register had started in March 2018 after all landholders in the three villages, wedged between

Saligao

, Calangute, Anjuna and Guirim were asked to submit information about the present land use of their landed properties.

“The next stage will be the preparation of the Outline Development Plan (ODP) for the Arpora-Nagoa-Parra planning area,” said Pandita.

The process had been actually kicked off in December 2017 after the government announced this planning area of three villages along with Panaji, Bambolim, Taleigao and the Kadamba plateau.

In August 2018, a public notice was issued under Section 27 (1) of the Town and Country Planning Act, 1974, inviting objections from the public regarding the land use map and register for the purpose of correction. It was also referred to the panchayats.

A sub-committee was also appointed to hear the public objections, which later suggested some modifications and the authority recently took up both documents for consideration.

The land use map and register has been kept at the respective panchayat offices for inspection, the notice on Saturday stated.
