IDENTIFICATION OF LAND USES

10. RESIDENTUAL LAND USE ZONES
 The areas of the city which have predominantly residential land use pattern are considered for the Residential (Main) zone.
 Ancillary use is allowable up to 20% of the total built up area or 50 sq m. whichever is lower .
 Parks, Playgrounds & open spaces.

11. MIXED RESIDENTIAL LAND USE ZONES
 Mixed Land Use‟ areas are those where employment, shopping and residential land uses will be integrated in a compact urban form, at higher
development intensities and will be partly pedestrian-oriented and highly accessible by public transit in district 12.
 The design and development of mixed use activity areas provide opportunities to create and/or maintain a special community identity and a focal point
for a variety of city wide, community and neighborhood functions.
 Mixed activity areas address the demand for employment, shopping and residential areas within the city.

12. PUBLIC AND SEMI-PUBLIC LAND USE ZONES
 District 12 includes Government owned complexes and civic amenities and large infrastructure facilities of health, education, sports, cultural and
social institutions managed by government or private organizations (Institutions).
 District 12 shall include Government administrative centers, district offices, law courts, jails, police stations, institutional offices, health facilities
(including health tourism), educational, cultural and religious institutions, community halls, working hostel facilities, convention centers of non-
commercial nature, utilities and all uses permissible in parks and open spaces.

13. LAND USE PATTERN:
 As per MUDA, the total area is further expected to increase to 15669 hectares by 2011, representing a significant increase of around 70 % over
the total area in 2001.
 The total area demarcated for residential purpose is expected to increase as new residential layouts are coming up. The residential area is
estimated to be 6098 hectares in the proposed land use pattern for 2011.
 The percentage of land for agricultural purpose is also expected to increase from 2.27% (162 hectares) in 2001 to 6.41% (899 hectares) in 2011.
However, the percentage of area for commercial, industrial and traffic/transportation purpose has not varied over the three periods.
 Currently, the city is undertaking GIS mapping to update land-use data and property details, and the Comprehensive Development Plan (master
plan) is also being currently updated.

14. LAND USE AND PLANNING
 MUDA designs a Comprehensive Development Plan for the city, at an interval of 10 years. Based on this master plan, the development regulation
is done by way of plan approvals and land-use..
 However, given the rate of urbanization, 10 years is a long timeframe, and this leads to the issue of periodic land-use reclassification and the
concomitant problems and issues..
 FSI in the core city could be pegged at a suitably low level, while higher FSI permitted in the periphery.
 Larger development fees or betterment charges could be levied in the core.
 Pro-actively develop fully self-sustained enclaves (industrial, commercial, or residential) on the periphery, so that there is no incentive for
development to move to the core Avoid large infrastructure interventions, such as elevated roads, and multistory complexes in the core city.

15. AGRAHARAS
Agraharas were the traditional residential buildings of Mysore, where Brahmins were accommodated.
each of these agraharas was built by the king as a symbol of some important event during his kingship.
agraharas are basically traditional row houses and are predominantly built in Hindu architecture with common walls
for a stretch which is then broken at regular intervals.
