Planning

• Polycentric pattern of development• Acquisition of all land to have better control of the

environment and to use land as the main resource for development.

• Decentralization by the design of self-sufficient townships(nodes),

• Residential neighborhoods (sector),• Single-use zoning as opposed to the traditional

multiple-use zoning

Hierarchy of Planning Authorities

Constraints and Solutions

• Land acquisition due to opposition from owners and villagers– Owners• “Consent Award”- Owner can negotiate the

land price (12.5% more)• Transferable Development Rights• Percentage acquiring and using the land for

social welfare and compensating those who lost their lands per-force due to their location

– Villagers• Individual oriented programmes like stipend

for education, skill buildiing, etc.• Village oriented programmes like grant-in-

aid for strengthening village infrastructure• “Developed land” for “virgin land”- GES

BFTech VI, NIFT Bangalore 1004/15/23

• Shortage of workers– The local villagers were employed in the

construction process

– They were given places to live and work as compensation

BFTech VI, NIFT Bangalore 1104/15/23

• Water Supply as ground water is not potable– Funds for developing water resources

– Dividing nodes into water districts

BFTech VI, NIFT Bangalore 1204/15/23

• Finance management– Large lands were given as tender to private

companies– Privatisation in municipal services through

tenders – Contracting out of public health works– These encouraged the advertisement of

initiatives as well as inflow of money

BFTech VI, NIFT Bangalore 1304/15/23

• Land reclamation as a lot of soil was lost due to Arabian Sea– Extensive conventional reclamation, including

quarrying and transport of huge amount of earth

– Dykes and polders

BFTech VI, NIFT Bangalore 1404/15/23

• Problem of managing sewage– Uses gravity and pumping mechanism

– Treatment of effluents on standards are done before discharge

– Recycling of wastes

BFTech VI, NIFT Bangalore 1504/15/23

• Problem of managing solid waste– 45% biodegradable waste

– Two dumping grounds of Kopar Khairane and Kalamboli
