6 Latur City

Latur, the headquarters of the Latur district, is an ancient town. It is situated on the eastern end of the region between the Manjra and Tawarja valleys and isthus surrounded on the north and the east by the very fertile valley of the Manjra River; and onthe south by that of river Tawarja.

CHAPTER III-LATUR FRINGE AREA (LFA)

7 Latur Fringe Area (LFA) - Geography

Latur is located at 18.23° N 76.36° E. It has an average elevation of 630 meter (2070 feet). The LFA is surrounded by river basin, at northern and eastern side bythe Manjra river basin and at south by the Tavaraja River basin whereas at west by airport andvillage boundaries.

Climate-

The winter season commence by the end of November when night temperature decreases rapidly. December is generally the coldest month with the mean daily maximum temperature at about 29.5 ˚C and the mean daily minimum temperature at about 15˚C. On some occasions the minimum temperature drops down to 4 or 5˚C due t western disturbances. May is generally the hottest month with temperature at 40˚C and mean daily minimum temperature 27˚C, in summer humidity is less than 25%. The normal annual rainfall over the district varies from 650 to 800 mm and it increases from southwest to northeast. The average annual rainfall for 2008-11 is about 761 mm. The average annual rainfall of the district ranges between 750 mm to 800 m m. The district often experiences low rainfall as 400 mm. to 450 mm.

Topography & Landscape

Latur LFA is situated at 540 to 638 mts above M.S.L. It is developed on the high plateau which runs along the Nanded - Barshi and Ausa road. The surrounding area is somewhat low level having good agriculture productivity land. The district forms a part of Godavari basin. Manjra river, a tributary of Godavari river flowing south-easterly is the major river in the district. Tawarje is the main easterly flowing tributaries of Manjarariver.

Character of Latur fringe area.

Looking at the delineated LFA area, the entire area appears to be divided into two parts, mainly northern area and the southern area separated by Barshi-Nanded Road. The natural streams and the water bodies on the northern side of this road are leading to Manjarariver due to natural slope. Similarly, the area on the southern side of Barshi-Nanded Road, the natural water bodies and streams falling in this particular area are leading towards TawarjaRiver. In both the cases, there are some existing water bodies,

Due to strategic location of Latur city with its industries, Education, Agricultural facilities it has experienced rapid growth and due to increased pressure on land within municipal council area and also due to higher cost of land within LMC the development is now taking place in the surrounding areas of Latur Municipal Council i.e., fringe area. This fringe area has already witnessed haphazard, sporadic type of development which calls for total comprehensive Growth Centre plan for proper provision of all physical & social infrastructures.

In this fringe area, development trend is observed in immediate adjoining areas of Latur Municipal Corporation boundary and around gaothans of outskirt villages. It also observed along major roads& the land between two MIDC areas. In this area, general trend is that, the developers takepermission for N.A. layouts and sell to the individual buyers the plots without developing anyinfrastructure. The individual plot‐holders develop bungalows/house for self-use on such plots.These layouts approved by erstwhile planning authority i.e. Collector & the developments carried out by individuals authorized/unauthorized are also incorporated in the plan while preparing ELU. The details of the LATUR FRINGE AREA are as follows:- • Total no. of villages : 40 (Including 6 part villages) • Total Area : 273.33 sq.km. ( 27,333 Hectare) • Total Population of LFA : 1,17,071 Souls • Additional MIDC area : 1071.00 Ha.

8 Population

The total population of LFA, as per 2011 census is 1,17,071 souls. The majority of the population of LFA resides in few villages as follows: Arvi, Babhalgaon, Gangapur, Harangul Br, MaharanaPratap Nagar, Pakharsangavi and varies from 6000 to 9000 souls & other villages are having less population.

The demographic characteristic of the region shows that the population below age group of 6 years is 13.30 % and male female ratio per 1000 male is 884.

CHAPTER VI-EXISTING LAND USE (ELU)

14 Preparation of Existing Land Use Map (ELU)

The preparation of Existing Land Use (ELU) was entrusted to private surveyor. The ELU map for LFA was prepared with the help of new age technology by using,

i) Satellite imageries and web-based mapping services like the Google Earth for site features and structures,

ii) Village maps of all 40 villages

iii) Sanctioned layouts obtained from town planning department,

iv) The projects plans obtained from various Government departments like, Road Development Scheme, Irrigation dams and canals map, MIDC plan

v) Information obtained through Site visits in the notified area

15 Existing land Use:

The major land use observed in the planning area is agriculture. The residential development is concentrated within and around the gaothan settlements and adjoining to Latur Municipal Corporation limit.

MIDC has developed two industrial estates in LMC and Fringe area. One is on the Latur ‐ Barshi highway located within the city limits and the other is the ' Additional Latur MIDC' located about eight km away from the city in LFA. For the second estate of MIDC i.e. the Additional Latur MIDC area having 1071.00 hectares is located in LFA, of which 250 hectares has been developed in the first phase. Both these MIDC locations will generate jobs in LMC as well as in LFA. The area of MIDC will not be counted in notified

31 area for LFA for the reason that the MIDC itself is a SPA. Adjoining to MIDC, there is an existing industrial user of Manjra Sahakari Sugar. The following table shows the breakup of existing land use of LFA area.

CHAPTER VII- PLANNING PROPOSALS

16 OBJECTIVES:-

The Latur Fringe Area (LFA) is expected to have a growth in the near future due to trade &industrial activities in Latur city, development of Latur as Educational hub, large transport network. Also Indian Railways decided to set up a metro and rail coach manufacturing facility in Latur in Maharashtra. The project will entail investment ofmore than Rs 1,500 crore. The facility will cater to the demands of metro coaches in cities across India along with the captive demand from Indian Railways.The Growth CentrePlan therefore needs to visualize the impacts and plan for the sustainable development. Considering the future growth potential the objectives of the plan are set as follows

1. To achieve planned urban development. 2. To expect deliverance of optimum physical and social infrastructure both through private and public/ local bodies. 3. To protect and expand the existing settlements (Gaothan). 4. To accommodate spillover of adjacent area developments and keep harmony in the regional development. 5. To preserve existing water bodies and to balance the development around it.to conserve and protect the region’s ecologically sensitive areas, natural corridors, prime agricultural lands along and adjoining valleys and water bodies in the form of an integrated green network.

17 POPULATION PROJECTION:

Population of planning area is always considered as base for zoning and distribution of social and physical infrastructural facilities. The total population of 40 villages in LFA, as per 2001 census, is 1,17,071. The plan

33 period is considered from 2018 to 2038. The various methods by which projected population is estimated as follows;

As per the report of sanctioned Latur Development Plan, the forecasted population at the end of 2011 would about 5, 00,000 souls and at the end of 2021 would be about 8, 00,000 souls.It has been proposed that about 7, 54,000 souls will be accommodated in the eleven planning sectors and the remaining 46,000 souls ought to be distributed outside the municipal limits. By considering the decadal growth of about 25%, the migration to the Growth Centre area would be about 80,000 at the end of 2028 and 1, 25,000 at the end of 2038. The development of Rail Coach Factory and other major industries in MIDC area will give rise to influx of population and it is assumed as 20% of total population..

By considering the factors, the projected population is estimated as follows;

1. Year 2028- 3,00,000 souls 2. Year 2028- 4,00,000 souls

18 PLANNING STANDARDS ADOPTED FOR DISTRIBUTION OF SOCIAL FACILITIES:

A circular of Urban Development department No. TPS-8692 / 1272 /UD-II, Dated 15.06.1992 has been issued which clearly states that the planning standards are to be used as an enabling instrument to provide for the required amenities to the satisfactory level and they are not an end in themselves.

19 PROPOSED EXTENSION OF LMC LIMITS

At present, Latur Municipal Council comprises of villages Khadgaon (pt), Latur (U), Varwanti (pt), Baswantpur (pt), Aarvi (pt), Kanheri and Wasangaon (pt) admeasuring 3281 Ha. LMC has the proposal to extend its limit spreading over an area of villages MaharanaPratap Nagar, LaturGramin ,Aarvi (pt), Warwanti (pt), Baswantpur (pt) and Khadgaon (pt). LMC. has forwarded the proposal to the State Govt. for extending its boundary for approval.

20 PROPOSED TRANSPORT NETWORK

Latur has a very good network of road, connecting various parts of the region with National Highways, State highways and Major District roads. The proposed network is prepared by taking cognizance of these existing

37 roads, proposals by PWD and additional arterial roads. The Govt. of Maharashtra, while sanctioning the Regional Plan of Latur wide notification dated 2nd January 2018, incorporated special regulation no 13.08 regarding width of classified/non-classified roads as follows;

Regulation No 13.08 - Special Regulations and Policies Applicable for the region. a) Policy/rule regarding width of classified / non classified roads The development along the classified road shall be allowed considering the following width of the classified roads. Sr. Status of the roads Total width Remarks No. of road in mt. 1 National Highways 60.00 Width including 12.0 mt. service road 2 State Highways 45.00 Width including 12.0 mt. service road 3 Major District Roads 24.00 No service road 4 Other District Roads 18.00 No service road 5 Village Roads 15.00 No service road

1) If the width of any existing road above is more than width specified in the table above, then the greater width shall prevail. 2) The above widths of road and service roads are subject to vary according to guidelines or circulars issued by the respective department time to time. 3) The development permission along the above classified roads shall be granted considering the total width of Roads.

1. National Highway, State Highway, Major District Roads, Other District Roads, Village Roads.

In the Growth Centre Plan, all the NH, SH, MDR ODR & Village roads are marked as per Highway map and Road Development Scheme 2001- 2021 of PWD. Their statuses are subject to vary according to reports of

respective departments. Their existing / planned width has been marked on the Growth Centre Plan. All the above roads shall be widen & developed as per above mentioned special regulation no. 13.08 of sanctioned Latur Regional Plan.

2. Outer Ring Road- 45.0 mt wide

PWD is under process to develop 45.00 mt. wide outer ring road adjoining to the boundary of LFA by widening the exiting MDR no 58, 59 and by developing missing link. Its alignment and width has been taken from PWD and marked on the plan accordingly. It connects to National Highways no NH-63, 361 548B & 752K and bye-passes the through traffic.

3. Access Roads- 15.0 mt. wide

At local level 15.0 and 12.0 mt wide roads are proposed in the areas of gaothan expansion and to provide link between major roads.

21 ProposedLand Use Zones

1. Residential Zone-

(a) The agricultural land is bound to come under the pressure for development due to surrounding development as agriculture is becoming increasingly non- remunerative. The plan therefore proposes conversion of various land use as per sanctioned RP into predominantly Residential Zone.

(b) The trend of growth in LFA is within the periphery of 1- 2 Km.ofLatur Municipal Corporation limit. Also the growth is observed along major roads and surrounding to MIDC and Latur Railway station. In the draft Development Plan, published by CIDCO, adjoining area of Latur Municipal Corporation was proposed in High

Density Development Zone (Residential zone) and major development/layout approval occurred therein. Therefore the said area is maintained as residential zone.
