Development Control Regulations

Development Control Regulations (DCR) are guidelines set by local authorities to govern land use and building construction in urban areas. They ensure that developments meet safety, environmental, and aesthetic standards while promoting orderly growth. DCR covers aspects such as building height, density, setbacks from roads, and open space requirements. By regulating how spaces can be developed, these regulations help maintain the character of neighborhoods, ensure adequate infrastructure, and protect public interests. Ultimately, DCR aims to provide a balanced approach to urban development that benefits both the community and the environment.
