Town planning measures may affect the property interest of many individuals as town planning implies certain amount of control over the individual’s rights to use his ‘property’. Hence, community has to have adequate legal powers to enable it to enforce necessary regulations and control in the use of land for the general good of the community.
‘Property’ means a certain thing (like land, building, etc.) that is owned. It may be said that ‘property’ is an intangible interest created and protected by law and governing relations between the owner and others, including the community as well.

1. ‘Right’ to keep others off his land,
2. ‘Powers’ to transfer his land to other, and
3. ‘Privileges to use his land.
