Study Notes

  • These notes cover Local Area Plan (LAP) Maps, their components, and scales, based on multiple-choice questions (MCQs).

LAP Map Scale

  • LAP Maps must be prepared at a scale of 1:2000.
  • Smaller scales used apart from 1:2000 can be 1:1000, 1:500, or 1:200.

Base Map

  • The main purpose of the Base Map is to depict plot boundaries with ownership details, contours, and existing structures.
  • Base Maps show contour details.
  • A common feature between the Base Map and the Green Space Network Map is natural features and contours.

LAP Map Details

  • The LAP Map shows revised street networks and areas designated for public purposes.
  • Revised plots with plot numbers are indicated on the LAP Map.

Land Use and Building Use Map

  • The Land Use and Building Use Map illustrates existing land use and building functions.
  • Existing land use and building uses are mapped on the Land Use and Building Use Map before street revisions.

Urban Design and Regulations Map

  • The Urban Design and Regulations Map includes arcade and permissible building footprint details.
  • The Urban Design and Regulations Map does not depict sewer line alignment.
  • The Urban Design and Regulations Map does depict setbacks, building height control, and build-to-line.

Green & Open Space Network Map

  • The Green & Open Space Network Map highlights perennial waterbodies, parks, wetlands, and flood-prone low-lying areas.
  • The Green & Open Space Network Map does not highlight sewage pipelines.
  • Green Space Maps show contour details.

Infrastructure Map

  • The Infrastructure Map maps existing and proposed physical infrastructure networks.
  • Infrastructure Maps typically show the water supply network, storm water network, and solid waste transfer system.
  • The Infrastructure Map does not show permissible building height.

Build-to-Line Regulation

  • Build-to-line regulation is used to fix the front line where buildings must align.
  • Build-to-line regulation does not define minimum road width, decide land use type, or restrict parking spaces.
