LOCAL AREA PLANNING

9. WHY LAP IN PUNE?
• Comprehensive ‘development plan’ is
for 20 years as per MR & TP Act, 1966
• Delayed approvals
• 2 separate plans: for newly merged and
old city area
• Implementation of reservations is
difficult – only 30% in case of last DP
• No town planning schemes
• Development is much faster than
planning ; vision is city-wide not local

policy makers

citizens for the local area/ ward
