The Bill among other things provides for the constitution of the Board and to vest in it the powers of an Urban Development Authority and Planning Authority including power to levy fee, to organize cultural programmes and to promote tourism and incidentally to make its own regulations and for appointment of staff etc. Since the matter was urgent and both the Houses of the Karnataka State Legislature were not in session the Basavakalyan Development Board Ordinance, 2004 (Karnataka Ordinance 4 of 2004) was promulgated on 12th November 2004. This Bill seeks to replace the Ordinance. Hence, the Bill. (LC Bill No.3 of 2005) (Entry 5 and 32 of list II, Entres 20 and 40 of list III of Seventh Schedule to the Constitution of India.)
