30. In the Tables attached to the Bye-Laws, different set backs areas have been prescribed for residential buildings, for commercial, mercantile, business and storage buildings. In a separate Table, requirement of open space area for industrial buildings has been prescribed and in Table 7. Minimum Off-street Car Parking Spaces required is given. The Table as provided under relevant clause 23.2 is as under:-

-30-

"23.2 For building of different kinds off street parking space for vehicles shall be provided as specified below:
(a) Motor vehicles: Space shall be provided as specified in Table - 7 for parking motor vehicle.

Table - 7 Minimum Off Street Car Parking spaces :

1. Residential (a) Two dwellings, each of upto 50
(i)Multifamily residential sq.m carpet area

buildings, parking space shall be provided as per serial no.4 of Table 7 above.

NOTE 2. For plots upto 100 sq.m as in the case of Shops/parking spaces need not be insisted upon.

(b) Other types of Vehicles: For non-residential nonassembly occupancies in addition to the parking area provided under Bye-laws no.23.2(a) above 100 per cent additional parking space shall be provided for parking other types of vehicles of this a minimum of 60 per cent shall be set apart exclusively for cycles.

37. Apart from the fact that there is no ambiguity that car service station and service garage are not permissible activity under Appendix - M in residential area and service garage is a commercial activity for which permission can be granted on commercial land as per clause - B of Appendix - M, it would be worthwhile to mention here that all land uses permissible under clause - A "Residential" clearly indicates that only those commercial activities are allowed in residential area which may have direct connection with the facilities, convenience and service to the residents of the locality, just like nursery, kinder garten, highschool, clinics, social and cultural institutions, retail shopping and community facilities, neighbourhood recreational uses including clubs and in special appeal permission, permissible uses are places of worship, professional, commercial and Government offices, service uses and retail shops with condition that this should be of neighbourhood character and they should be located in shopping centres or shall be earmarked as such in zonal development plan obviously prepared, hotels, hospitals, sanitoria not treating contagious diseases or mental patients, non-commercial poultry and cattle farms, institutions of higher learning, bus depots, railway passenger and freight station, petrol filling stations, service and storage yards, taxi and scooter stands. All these uses have direct relation with comfortable living of the resident of the area. Wherever there is any chance of overcrowding or nuisance, caution has been mentioned in the column, providing for permission. Therefore, grant of a service station of large number of cars of a dealer having an agency of sale of cars with facilities of painting and denting with employees of 100 persons without taking care of those employees' parking space who (high ranking) may come with cars or scooters which may be in large number and without taking care of possibility of coming of vehicles of customers for servicing and repairing and their movements in residential area is contrary to rules and scheme and while granting permission the Table - 7 under clause 23.2 prescribing requirement of space for car parking off-street has been ignored, which certainly vitiates the permission granted by the R.R.D.A to respondent no.6 for establishing and running service garage of cars in the property in dispute.
