Preamble The need for City Development Plan
The need for City Development Plan

Due to rapid industrialization in and around Aurangabad corporation as also due to explosion of tourist traffic for the city, Aurangabad city is growing at phenomenal pace for last two decades. During first half of 1990s the city was touted as fastest growing city in the country. Population has increased from 150483 in 1971 to 873311 in 2001. The city, in absence of a long term planning has been tackling the issues arising out of this explosion on an ad-hoc basis. In fact till an issue becomes something of an urgency it does get addressed as city government is already grappling with other issues that have acquired urgent proportions. This has led to sub-optimum uses of resources and also less than desirable effects of resource spending. Again discontent in the population also gets risen as problems are tackled late and in an unsatisfactory way. Also important issues gets a back seat as urgent issues take over. This has led to a realization that city must assess its current situation, understand the opportunity that exist as well as competition it faces, project its vision, focus on priority issues that otherwise may create bottlenecks in the developmental goals, allocate its resources in an optimum way and plan an investment raising routes, with evaluation of alternate strategies for implementation of the vision.
dium term City Development Plan to avail any kind of assistance under the mission. Even the Government of Maharashtra has made it clear that any kind of financial assistance that a corporation or any civic body desire will follow only if the city makes this medium term plan and utilizes the assistance in a manner that is consistent with the plan. This insistence of both the state and central governments, amidst the growing realization as stated in the paragraph preceding the last one, has led to crystallization of idea of need of making a medium term CDP. Thus Aurangabad Municipal Corporation started in right earnest the preparation of CDP and this document is the result. However, one aspect of CDP that needs to be stressed here is its dynamism. Even if this plan is medium term, it must be realized that this plan will be needed to be returned to, at periodical intervals, not only to assess the level of its implementation and its effect on the measurable key parameters but also to modify it as per the changes in internal and external environments, including financial, legal as well as natural environments.

Reforms
Representatives of the citizens, office-bearers among them, administration and citizens as a whole have recognized the need for time bound reforms for the sustainable development of the city. Some of the reforms which need increase or rationalization of the taxes or the charges for different services have also found favor with these stake holders. Even though JNNURM mandates some reforms, city government has anyway decided to embrace these reforms due to felt need rather than due to directives. Vide resolution dated 20-01-2006, and bearing number 156 / 02, city government has decided to implement all the reforms mandated by the central government in a time bound manner, as delineated below:
1. Adoption of modern accrual based double entry system of accounting: a.Time limit: Corporation intends to implement
double entry system in financial year, 2006-07.
b.Current Stage: Under process for tendering

for making of assets and liabilities registers, and valuation of each oh these entries. Also under process is the tender for ERP implementation with emphasis on double entry accounting system. It is ex-
Pg 10
Executive summary
pected that a trial run, when both single entry and double entry systems will run parallel for a year, should start from January, 2007.
2. Introduction of a system of e-gover nance using IT applications, such as GIS and MIS for various services: a.Time Limit: Corporation intends to implement
full ERP system in next two financial years i.e. 200607 and 2007-08.
that will however come from the other taxations. Municipal Transport service launched by the corporation is without any subsidy and through BOT route it has ensured that not only are the rates of tickets very affordable to everyone, it earns a loyalty of about 40 lakhs a year.
5. Internal earmarking in the budget for basic services to the urban poor:
a.Time limit: Next financial year i.e. 2006-07. b.Current stage: Currently some budget heads are specifically for the urban poor especially those residing in slums. Schemes of central government for urban poor like SJSRY etc. are implemented in letter and spirit. Corporations internal schemes like free uniforms, books to all etc. are targeted towards urban poor who take education in corporations primary schools. All internal health schemes have service prices very affordable. However more specific internal earmarking will be done in the budget from next financial year.
b.Current stage: Under tender process for ERP

implementation. Tender forms have been discussed, presentations of different ERP product companies like SAP, Oracle and Microsoft representatives over, and are in final stages for publication of the tender. 3. Reform of Property Tax with GIS:
a.Time Limit: Linking of GIS with property tax to

be done in next financial year, i.e. 2006-07.
b.Current Stage: Full survey of properties in the

corporation area complete which led to jumping of properties no from 90000 to 143000. Computerization of basic data complete. Notices on for finalization of the property tax. Basic layer of properties as per satellite data from MRSAC ready. Proposal for linking the two under consideration.
6. Provision of basic services to the urban poor including security of tenure at affordable prices, improved housing, water supply and sanitation. Delivery of other existing universal services of the government for education, health and social security is ensured:
a.Time limit: Seven years. b.Current Stage: Security of tenure is a state subject, but a massive drive has been taken to regularize unauthorized structures owned by urban poor who could not afford housing otherwise, under Gunthewari Act, so that each one of them has access to basic services like roads, water and sanitation. Out of expected 40000 households like this, 20000 have already been survey and notices to about 6000 have already been issued, in response to which about 2000 have applied for the regular-
4. Levy of reasonable user charges with the objective that the full cost of O&M or recurring cost is collected within next seven years:
a.Time limit: Seven years. b.Current stage: Corporation subsidizes water supply and drainage services to the tune of almost 50% through other taxations. New water supply project for augmentation of water source and parallel water supply line will have charges to be levied related to the O&M cost. Capital expenditure of

ization. It is expected that this procedure will lead to regularization of at least 20000 households out of expected households in next six months. Once this goal is realized, corporation can give these poor all the services which is otherwise not possible legally. Education, health and other universal services are targeted more for urban poor, but will now be specifically and focused targeted. Though social security is not guaranteed but corporation has implemented a novel scheme under which all the citizens who pay property tax regularly are ensured by the corporation for 25000 accidental benefits. No other social security is implemented.
harvesting compulsory.
Reuse of Recycled Water

Proposal for tax incentive for reuse of recycled water is under consideration.
Administrative reforms:
Corporation has its administrative expenditure under 40% of its budget. However, while taking over CIDCO area in corporation limits, corporation intends to increase its staff by bare minimum and reduce this percentage below 30%. Again when corporation started its municipal transport system, it did by BOT route and did not add even a single person on its establishment while running a fleet of 150 buses finally. Corporation also intends to outsource most of its activities to reduce administrative expenditure.
Other than these mandatory reforms, following optional reforms are being taken up the corporation:
Revision of bye laws For building construction etc. Administration has undertaken serious measures to streamline the process of grant of building permission etc. Administration has officially moved from the system of betterment charges to self development; also system of approval of estimates has been simplified by giving model estimates; even tax incentives for builders going for group housing schemes has been approved by General Body of corporation.
Structural Reforms
Corporation will take up structural reforms in phases.
Encouraging Public Private Partnership

Corporation has started municipal transport with PPP. About 14 projects have been given administrative approval for BOT implementation. Even in Gunthewari regularization project, help of 7 agencies have been taken in a novel and comprehensive way that precludes need of individual citizen to come to corporation and which ensures that a massive project of its dimensions, regularizing 40000 houses, can be completed in 6 months rather than 2 to 3 years. Corporation intends to explore all the fields in which better services can be offered at lower cost, without increasing its expenditure by going via PPP route. Experience of corporation in this regard has been encouraging. nnn
Housing Project For EWS / LIG

Earmarking of at least 20-25% of developed land in all housing projects for EWS/LIG category with a system of cross subsidization. This reform will require change in the act and the rules. This may be taken up under guidance of state government.
Rain Water Harvesting

Revision of byelaws to make rain water har vesting mandatory in all buildings and adoptions of water conservation measures. This reform has already been implemented with rain water

1. Historical Background
Aurangabad is the headquarters of Aurangabad district and also the divisional head quarters of the Aurangabad Region. It is an ancient and historical city of the Marathwada Region. There was a village named Kirki (Khadki) where the city stands today. According to some historians, the city was founded in 1610 by Malik Ambar. Malik Ambar was the Prime Minister of Murtaza Nizam Shah II of Ahmednagar, the then ruler of the Deccan (central parts of Southern India). It is widely believed that city took shape between 1604 and 1610 under Malik Ambars rule. Initially, it was named Fatehabad (city of Victory), probably after Maliks son Fateh Khan. A mint was built in the city. In 1634, Aurangzeb was sent to Kirki, and named as Governor of Deccan. In 1644, He moved to Agra to play an active role in Mughal politics. In 1681, the city again became the residence of Aurangzeb, who had now become Mughal Emperor. He used the city as base for his campaigns to conquer the last remaining Deccan sultanates. He lived there until his death in 1707. The modern name of the city was probably taken after his death. Aurangzebs tomb is situated at Khultabad, a small town near
the city. There are no direct references to the present day city in the ancient history. However the region on the north of the Godavari, now included in the Aurangabad district, was known by the name of Mulaka. This country together with its capital Pratishthana (modern Paithan) is mentioned in the Pali literature. Pratishthana later became the capital of the Satavahanas. The Yadava rulers had their capital at Devgiri (present day Daulatabad) near Aurangabad. This city was famous for its 52 gates, its fortress walls and its Rajwada known by the name of Subhedari. Malik Amber had designed a water supply system for the city through a canal that still exists. The city has world famous Bibi ka Makbara (a replica of TajMahal ) , Panchakki (a system of water supply that also run a Chakki to grind), Saneri (golden) Palace and very old Buddhist caves along with Navkhanda Palace, Kileark, Gulshan Palace etc. It also has Jama Masjid, Kali Masjid, Shahganj Masjid etc. Around Aurangabad are Daulatabad which has Devgiri Fort, Paithan and world heritage sites of Ajantha and Ellora. This rich history has put Aurangabads name on the tourist map of the world with prominence. It was a part of Hyderabad State and was ruled by Nizam in British period. Aurangabad was headquarter of the Subha (region) comprising of five districts known as Marathwada in Nizam period. It became a part of Indian in 1949. Aurangabad formed part of the Hyderabad State until 1956 after which it was transferred to the Bombay State. In 1960 when Maharashtra State was formed it became an integral part of the state and the divisional headquarter of the Aurangabad Region., one of the six divisional head quarters. The importance of the city increased with passage of time. City became an educational centre for backward Marathwada region after establishment of Marathwada University in 1958, which later renamed as Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar University. During 1971-81 decade High Court was established

in Aurangabad. Thereafter city has commanded more and more area under its influence. Large efforts were taken by state to promote Industrialization from 1961. As a result of which MIDC Estate of Chikalthana was established in 1961-1971. City has two industrial estates within Municipal Corporation area and third large industrial estate Waluj MIDC Area, 7 Km away from City in Aurangabad Urban Agglomeration. Another Industrial Estate is up coming at Shendra MIDC Area, few Km away from Aurangabad. These Industrial areas played an important role in development of the Aurangabad city. Beside these industries, tourism is a major economic activity of the city as places of significant historical importance like great fort of Daulatabad, Grave of Aurangzeb; caves of Ajanata and Ellora are located within few Km from the city. Monuments like Bibi Ka Maqbara, replica of Taj Mahal of Agra, Panchakki and caves of Sonehri Mahal are situated inside the city. So city is also developing as a tourist centre.
2. Regional setting, linkages and accessibility

Aurangabad city is a head quarter of district and Marathwada region and is situated at the bank of the river Kham, a tributary of Godavari. City is situated at the latitude of 1905350" north and longitude of 7502246" east. Aurangabad sits in a strategic position on the Decaan Plateau. The city is surrounded by hills of the Vindhya Ranges and the River Kham passes through it. The city stands in the Dudhana valley between Lakenvara range on the north and Satara hills on the south. The valley has a general breadth of about 10 miles is open towards the east, but on the west, the northern range deflects and curves in towards the city sending a spur close upon its suburbs. Along the centre it deepens. Thus city occupies very uneven ground. Aurangabad is well connected with Mumbai, the state capital, Delhi, the national capital and other important places by air, rail and road. The city is located on Hyderabad-Manmad-Mumbai railway line. Mumbai to Aurangabad distance is 233 miles by railway. Conversion of meter gauge into broad gauge brings well links with the major cities in India.

4. Administration and Urban governance

Physical Growth of the City:
Aurangabad, as mentioned earlier was originally a small town called Khirki, later on the walled city came up which was 5.35 Ha. in area. Then the cantonment area was established towards the end of 19th century, which was developed on the western bank of the south-west walled city. Till the beginning of this century the development of the city was limited within the walled city, Begampura and
Cantonment. As population started growing area outside the walled city started developing. The development was not possible on the northern part of the city due to the hilly land, which acts as a major physical constraint. Hence city started developing towards south and areas like Usmanpura, Padmpura, Kranti Chowk etc started developing. CIDCO was established during 1972 as a special planning authority and New Aurangabad Township was developed towards east side of the city during 1971-81. Eastern and north-eastern areas like Chikalthana and Harsool near city started devel-

oping due to establishment of CIDCO. The MIDC, industrial area just on the east of the Municipal limits have given a great inputs for development along Jalana Road, the proximity of the area to the northern Delhi Gate with the Himayat Bagh, the Government Office Complex, the Shahaganj area (city centre). Areas like Jyotinagar, Jawahar Colony and Garkheda etc started developing in 1980s with large no of apartments and are still developing today. On the south-west, city started developing towards Paithan road in the areas like Kanchanwadi, nakshtrawadi etc. City is developing in three main directions, which are l South of Railway Station l Along the Jalana Road towards the east l Towards north along Jalagaon Road and northwest side beyond Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University. Now city is developing beyond Garkheda towards Satara near Bid Bypass Road on the Southern side. This area is outside the Aurangabad Municipal corporation limit. Also due to establishment of new Five Star Industrial Estate at Shendra towards east, city is expected to grow in that direction.
Administration
The Aurangabad Municipal Corporation is the governing body of the city. The Corporation was formed on 3rd December 1982. At present there are 98 electoral wards in city. The Corporation has 98 elected representatives (councilors) and 5 nominated representatives thus having a total of 103 councilors in the corporation. The Corporation is headed by a Mayor who is the elected representative. The AMC carries out the governance through the General body meeting, standing committee and six wards committees (as per the 74th amendment to the constitution on decentralizing governance) and five committees on different subjects. The Chief Administrator is appointed by the Government from IAS (Indian Administrative Services) cadre as commissioner. In order to decentralize the governance
the AMC is trying to address all the issues and problems of the citizens at the ward level. AMC has also taken over the area of CIDCO since first April, 2006, for providing the services. This has facilitated integration of services with rest of the city. Municipal corporation had general elections in February 2005. With 5 co-opted members, total strength of the body goes to 103. All the representatives discharge their duties through General Body which is the apex body for policy decision and is chaired by Mayor and in his absence by Deputy Mayor, a standing committee that meets every week and take financial decisions especially as required by the budget passed by General Body, five Subject Committees for different subjects like health, education, women and child welfare, urban development, and six Ward Committees that take administrative decisions for works upto five lakhs for six divisions of the city. Corporation derives its existence as well as most of its powers and duties through Bombay Provincial Municipal Corporations Act and is responsible for almost all the facets of an urban life, like roads, drainage, water supply, primary education, health including preventive as well as curative care, gardens etc. Corporation derives its financial resources by levying Property Tax, Water charges, Development Charges, Octroi etc.

1. Employment
Aurangabad City today is an important urban centre in the state having a multiplicity of roles such as an administrative centre, industrial centre and centre for trade & commerce. The employment pattern from the 1991 and 2001 census shows that employment in the primary sector has reduced considerably which is a common trend in almost all urban areas of the state. The employment in the household industries has also decreased in the last decade. The 2001 census shows that majority
of the population is engaged in the tertiary sector. Though the total number of workers in the tertiary sector has increased in the last decade the share tertiary sector in employment generation has decreased from 54% to 49 %. The total workers in the last decade have increased by 200 %. The main workers have increased by 57 % whereas marginal workers have grown at very high rate and their number has increased by 8000 times. The decrease in the employment in tertiary sector could be due to the considerable increase in the number of marginal workers.

Pg 25
B Economic Profile
37 different types of colleges in the city including 6 engineering colleges, 2 medical colleges, 3 homeopathic colleges and 3 ayurvedic colleges. The increasing number of colleges in the city has given rise to services catering to the needs of the students such as stationery shops, telephone booths, hostels for accommodation, tiffin mess services etc. However the exact number of people engaged in these activities in not known. There about six hostels for girls run privately by individuals and community organizations.
2.5 Informal sector

In Asia the informal sector is said to comprise of small scale enterprises and units which are usually the main source of livelihood and remain at that level. In many cases they contribute to almost one fourth of the urban economy. In the city of Aurangabad the activities under this sector include petty shops, hawkers, rag pickers etc. There is no data available on the exact number of people employed in this sector and its share in the citys economy. The hawkers are seen along the MSRTC Bus stand, Ganjgolai, Railway Line and Gandhi Market.
Key Issues
Aurangabad city functions as an administrative city as well as a centre for trade and commerce. In the recent years it has emerged as an educational centre. The availability of skilled manpower has also given impetus to industrial development including the IT industry.

1 General Characteristics of Slums
In the year 1991 the AMC carried out a survey to notify slum areas in the city. According to the survey there are 63 notified slum colonies. The total population of the slum colonies is 299985 persons which forms about 81.35 %of the total population of Aurangabad. As per the 1991 census, almost 22 percent of the citys population (about 1,24,558) resides in 53 slum settlements. This figure is observed to increase in the last few years (although precise information is not available, it is estimated that about 30 percent of the population is residing in slum settlements at present). The total population in undeclared slums is 94,240. The details are given below in table
Slum Population in

CIDCO/MIDC
29266
As slums are defined as settlements having no access to basic services and infrastructure (even if they have pucca house) and finance for improvement programmes, parts of old Gaothans were declared as Slums by the AMC. Out of the total slum population, about 60.23 percent resides on Government lands in 26 settlements and 30.37 percent on private lands in 14 settlements. Remaining 9.40 percent slum population has been squatting on land owned by CIDCO/ MIDC or other semipublic bodies. It is seen that the maximum slum population of about 47.18 percent is in Zone IV, followed by Zone I and Zone V, slum population being 24.58 percent and 24.23 percent respectively.
2. Population Below Poverty Line

The survey of population below poverty line was done in 1998 and the according to the survey there are 15703 BPL households having a population of 84653 persons. This forms about 28% of the total population (as per 2001 census) of the city. All the BPL families stay in the different slum areas.
3. Social set-up
The social composition in majority of slums comprises of general caste, Scheduled caste, and other backward castes. Most of the slums have mixed castes living in them except slum no. which consists of only general caste. Some wards, namely, etc. have predominantly Muslim slum population whereas some other wards like 000, etc have predominantly Hindu slum population.
Pg 27
C. Poverty Profile
4. Employment
Almost all of the slum dwellers are employed in the informal sector. Most of the people are hawkers, construction labourers and some are employed in the small industries such as oil extraction. A few of them have small shops such as pan stalls, cobblers, food stalls near medical college etc. Quite a few ladies are employed as housemaids in the surrounding residential areas. Most of the work force comprises of skilled and semi skilled labourers.
7. Health
The Aurangabad Municipal Council runs two OPDs for the slum population and there is a mobile dispensary that makes frequent rounds to all the slum areas. The mobile dispensary runs in two sessions with fixed weekly programmes. The OPD treats 50 patients daily approximately.
8. Education
The municipal schools provide primary and secondary education to the slum dwellers. There are three municipal schools in the city which cater to the needs of the slum dwellers.
5. Average household size

The average household size is about 5.8 persons per household
6. Housing type
Most of the housing is of Kutcha type except in ward 0000 where some pucca and semi pucca structures are seen. The slums along the railway line and railway yard are all of kutcha type. Around 10% of the housing is of pucca type. The slums occupy 300 hectares of landing the city which is about 9.2 % of the total area of the city.
9. Location of slums
The slum localities are more towards the northern and eastern part of the city along the main transport routes to Nagpur and Amravati. However there is no distinct pattern in the distribution of the slums. A few slums are located along the railway tracks. The fringe area around the Municipal Border has also given rise to slum like colonies. But these are mainly unplanned & uncontrolled developments happening around the city.

10. Urban Basic Services in Slums

The AMC has provided basic urban services such as water supply, sanitation, solid waste collection and internal roads in most of the slum colonies. Water supply 10 slums are not provided with water supply. In the rest of the localities there are 330 public stand posts for providing water. During periods of shortage water is also supplied using tankers. Solid waste management There is no organized facility for solid waste collection in almost all slums. The waste is dumped in the community bins and in many cases there are unauthorized dumps from where the council collects the waste for disposal.
Sewerage and Sanitation 10 slum colonies do not have proper toilet facilities, in most other slums they either have individual private toilets or the AMC has constructed community toilets. There 8 slum colonies which do not have proper internal roads, where as the balance settlements have paved roads and the total length is 12.66 km. The entire slum population of 1,24,588 (1991 census) is served by 98 common toilets. There are 1174 seats, of which, 627 are for gents and 547 for ladies. Moreover, these are not maintained and their quality has deteriorated. There are 4 pay and use toilets, maintained as Sulabh Sauchalayas but no urinals. Almost all the small settlements are provided with open drain gutters.

C. Poverty Profile
Access to all the slums is provided in the form of tar roads, WBM roads and pathways. About 90 percent of the slums have tar roads (apx.12 m wide) for main access covering a length of 4.81 kms, while 80 percent of the settlements have WBM roads (9 m wide) of length 9.18 kms. About 60 percent of the slums have 5 m wide pathway access and their total length is 5.07 kms. It is seen that access is not a major problems in the slums, but lack of basic sanitation and surface water disposal is a matter of concern.
11. Slum Improvement and Poverty Alleviation Programs

a. SJSRY (Swarana Jayanti Shaheri Rozgaar Yojana)
The AMC has formed self help groups under the SJSRY, in all 232 SHGs have been formed till date, of these 75 groups have received a revolving grant of 8.31 lakh rupees.

The AMC has set up a separate poverty alleviation cell to look after the above activities. Out of the above SHGs 122 groups are of BPL category and 1492 families are benefited from it.
DWCUA (Development of Women and Child in Urban Areas)

Under this program, a group loan (subject to maximum grant of Rs. 1.25 lakh or 50% of the total investment whichever is less) is provided to a group
of women having a minimum of 10 members. Out of the total investment, 5% is to be provided by the beneficiaries themselves. The maximum limit of the loan is not fixed. Group finance is provided with 50% subsidy, 45 % bank loan and 5% group contribution. In the year 2004 - 05 thirteen SHGs have been given loans for starting different types of economic activities. Loans have been sanctioned to these SHGs and a total grant of 11.50 lakhs has been disbursed. In the coming year a target of forming 32 SHGs has been set.

b. VAMBAY (Valmiki Ambedkar Malin Basti Aawas Yojana)

VAMBAY is a centrally sponsored scheme aiming at shelter delivery to the poor. The main objective of the scheme is to provide or upgrade shelter for the people living below poverty line in urban slums. The ministry of urban development and poverty alleviation provides guidelines for the implementation of VAMBAY. The target group for VAMBAY is all the slum dwellers in urban areas that are below poverty line or E.W.S. without adequate shelter. In this scheme the state government contributes 50% of the cost of the tenement and 40 % is given by central government. The beneficiary needs to con-

Under the VAMBY scheme a total of 85 slum settlements have been identified for rehabilitation in three phases. Construction of tenements under the phase I with 125 beneficiaries is completed. A list of 2085 beneficiaries in Phase II has been approved by MHADA and identification of beneficiaries in Phase III is under progress. A proposal for constructing 2151 tenements is being prepared.
Key Issues
1 Absence of appropriate and adequate information on slums and levels of services in slums 2 Infrastructure and service requirements of slums are inadequate; most slums seem to be dependent on ground water for their daily needs. 3 Very few voluntary community-based organizations working in the slum areas; Most of the slums are on encroached land, and land tenure is a major problem, as a result of which slum dwellers do not invest adequately in housing, fearing eviction.

1. Water supply
Water Planning
Presently the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation is supplying water @ about 100 liters per capita per day. It is essential to supply 150 liters per capita per day. For this it is essential to improve water distribution system taking into account the population of city during 2025 A.D. The existing water supply system is highly insufficient and cannot bear the burden of increasing population. Therefore the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation has started planning a new water supply project. There has been rapid progress in the development of the city during last three decades. Similarly some problem cropped up. One of such problems is drinking water and its use for different purposes.It is expected that there should be a clear concept of Aurangabad Vision 2025. Water is life. It has been tried to paint a picture in this note about increase in population and industrialization and water supply system for the same by giving integrated though to it. Some time back through a concept of Aurangabad City Vision- 2021 the Chief Minister of Maharashtra State has formed a committee under the chairmanship of divisional commissioner to prepare a plan for 2021 with respect to drinking water, electrification, drainage, road etc. The committee comprised of experts like shri Madhav Chitale, Prof. Morwanchikar,Dr.Warade,Chief Engineer of Maharashtra Jeevan Pradhikaran Shri Dumkondwar,retired Chief Engineer Shri Narsapur etc. The committee held several meetings and discussed following issues. Existing water supply and its capacity
Nandur Madhmeshwar & Tembapur Dam etc. may be considered as an alternative to Jayakwadi Dam. However, an on spot study of these Dams revealed that they cannot be treated as alternative to water supply source of Jayakwadi Dam. The Committee suggested good maintenance of Nahar-e-Ambari & Nahare-e-Malik Ambar which are not only serving as important source of water to the city but they also citys cultural heritage. This nahar supplies 2 MLD water per day for 7 to 8 months in a year. Therefore a package treatment plant of 2 MLD capacity should be prepared for which an amount of Rs.30 Lakh would be required. A special provision should be made for this purpose in the annual budget. There are in all 588 well in the different parts of the city. These wells require strengthening. It was discussed water of these wells should be used for gardening and other purpose. The Committee also received suggestions from experts that in future Jayakwadi Dam should be used as main source of drinking water to the city. Therefore planning should done keeping in view the need of water in the year 2031by lay a parallel water supply line. This parallel project should include pumping machinery, filternation plant and other components in the first phase 2021. Accordingly a line estimate has been prepared and action has been proposed on point no.1,2 & 7 of report. About point no.9 the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation has launched a compaign for regularization of unauthorised water connection under the name of Abhay Yojana. This scheme will be implemented in future also. The Aurangabad Municipal Corporation has starated water every audit in the year 2004-05 and this is going to give account of quantity of lift and use of water. 42 MLD 88 MLD 130 MLD

Requirement of Water
There are several elements in water supply. In water supply system following basis components are involved: l Drinking water l Livestock l Water for industries l Gardens & Forests l Construction l Water for amusement
At the same thoughts have also been given to various problems. It was also necessary to think of drainage system in urban water use. There is difference between water draining out from drinking water use and the water draining out from industrial use of water. And there fore there are different methods of treatment of these waters.
Requirements of Drinking Water

The following statement the progress in city population during last three decades and also expected increase in it in future decades Remarks Industrial growth Extention of Cidco -

The expected population of the city in the next25 years is 2 more than 20 lakh. As to the planning of water supply scheme it is a criteria than the palnning should be for next 15 years period. It is necessary to do planning of 2031 in the year 2001. In this project the main pipe lines should be designed taking into account the needs of 2031 and other equipment as per needs of 2021 as a phase I project. Accordingly the city would need following quantity of water for 2021 x 2031.
l City population (2021) l Daily need in 2021 l City population (2031) l Daily need in 2031 l Quantity available today
Water requirement for live stock :

Some villages have been included in municipal limits of AMC. These villages have a sizeable number of livestock such as cows, bulls, buffalos, pigs, hens, goats etc. Even pet dogs are also there. All these Livestock require water. A quantity of 5 litres per capita is added in drinking water, but facts are otherwise. Buffalos and cows require 80 litre water per capita. The correct number of livestock is not available. The Irrigation commission has fixed the quantity of water required for animals. Considering this criteria, the city is short of one MLD water. The city would require one more annually in 2021.

Water requirement for Industries :

As per 1996 figures 5.2 % of total population of Maharashtra state was engagaed in Industries. If Year 2001 2021 Population 50,700 1,04,000 this figure is applied to Aurangabad city the population figure working in Industries comes as follows: Total M.L.D. 2.77 5.55

Water Requirement for Parks and Gardens :

Aurangabad Municipal Corporation has developed parks and Gardens in an area of about 100 hectYear 2001 2021 Area (10%) 1400 hect. 1540 Garden Area 100 200
are. Taking into account the open lands, the requirement of water for parks & Gardens would be as follows: Requirement of water M.L.D. 1.0 2.0
Water Requirement for Construction :

The City is noticing increase in construction activities in the fields of roads, bridges, houses, colleges, hospitals, schools and housing projects. A quantity of 20% of drinking water is used for these construction activities. It means generally 21 MLD water is used for civil works from different sources.
Requirement of water in 2021 :

As such the city would require 110 MLD of water per year. A report is given below about the existing sources and planning for additional and alternate sources of water. It is specifically mentioned here that a planning is essential for existing parks & Gardens. By strengthening th existing sources other than main source i.e. wells, borewells etc. including water which will be available through efluent plant we may get water for this purpose. Thus taking into account this quantity the requirement of water in the year 2021 will be 100 MLD. For this a parallel scheme should be prepared. For this scheme and for inprovement is existing water supply scheme, provisin of funds will have to be made.
139.5 MLD 140.0 MLD
Alternative Sources :
As far as main source of water supply is concerned the Jayakwadi Dam is under consideration. As an alternative source, the Nandur Madhmeshwar Dam and Tembapuri Dam (as a support source) are also under consideration. The Nandur Madhmeshwar Dam is constucted on Godavari River as a pick up ware. It is located in Vinchor Taluka of Nashik dis-
Thus out of above 110 MLD will be required for drinking purpose and 30 MLD for other purposes. 110 MLD can be derived from main source and remaining quantity of 30 MLD from other sources viz. wells, borewells and other old existing & sources.

trict. It is located at a distance of 185 Km from Aurangabad. Its level is 530 m and capacity is 7.00 DLM (220 DLM). This Dam is dependent of other Dams such as Darna, Bham, Mukne x Bhavli Dams. the lifting capacity form this Dam is less by 74 m. However, as compared to Jayakwadi source (45 Km distance from others) and Nandur Madhmeshwar source (185 Km. away from city) have a difference of more than 140 Km. Threrefore if it is decided to lift water from this source as per standard of 2.40 m/km the lift is will be more than 325 m. This can save electricity consumption to some extent. However, feasibility of the proposal will be to be properly checked. Therefore proper decision will have to be taken whether Nandur Madhmeshwar source is to be used or otherwise. For undertaking above works an expenditure of Rs.100 crore is expected. Moreover, water can be lifted through gravity which can result is saving of electricity to some extent. On the northern side of the city there is another source of water viz. Savangi Tank adjoining Jalgaon Road. Possibility of increasing its capacity can be examined. Presently an intake well is constructed in this tank. This well can be improved for more water supply. For these works an amount of Rs.100 crore will be required.
only. The reason for this is that there are 8 to 9 dams constructed on Pravara x Godavari rivers on the areas. Which are located before rivers reaches Jayakwadi Dam which stop flow of water upto Jayakwadi Dam. This also results in minimising the water level in Dam every summer which goes upto 455.52 M. During the same season water is released to low lying areas of Jalna, Beed, Parli etc. This also adds to further difficulties. Because of these problems Aurangabad city faces difficulties of water supply during summer. During May 2004 the water supply was distupted for city for entire 24 hours. To avoid this situation it is necessary that Irrigation Dept. should not release water after minimum water level of 455.52 M. Similarly there is difference between sea level of Dam which is 455.52 M and that of city which is 611 SML. This requires lifting of water through pumping which results in exhorbitant billing of electiricity. If electricity is charged at agriculture rate, this will give some financial relief to AMC. Efforts are required to be made or higher level to solve this problem. If both the above problems are solved then JFayakwadi Dam is a reliable source of water supply to the city. An amount of Rs.100 crore will be required in future for the improvement of above source. Additional distributory pipe line for Pundlik Nagar, and Shivaji Nagar have been sanctioned for Rs.9.93 crore out of which an amount of Rs.3.20 crore has been spent on this work. Works amounting to 4.675 Crore are in progress.
Jayakwadi Source :
Jayakwadi Dam which is known as Nath Sagar was commissioned in the year 1975. It is situated at a distance of 45 Km from the city. It has got a source of 2909 MLD with dead level of 738 MLD. City can depend on this source for supply of 140 MLD in the year 2021. A study shows that since, beginnig the Dam was filled upto 25-30% Capacity
Revision of Water Charges :

Presently the water supply scheme of AMC is running into losses. Even effort to run this scheme on No profit No loss basis did not succeed. It is threrefore necessary to increase water charges to minimise the losses. This can be done in phases. The water charges are fixex on the basis of dia of
Pg 37
water connection. If meter system is commissioned these charges would be for actual consumption of water and thus theft of water can be avoided.
Rain water Harvesting System :

The ground water level increases due to drainage water and reharvesting of rain water into ground. This will result in availability of water in borewells in urban areas. This water can be used for daily use for puposes other than drinking water purpose. This will also minimise the burden AMC to some extent. During rainy season the pressure on sewevage treatment plan will also minimise. It is suggested that while preparing soak pits, bed concreting should not be done. This will allow water, to merge in the ground thereby raising the ground water level. For educationg the builders, developers, architechts, plumbers, peoples, representatives, engineers, Govt. and Semi Govt. Employees a Training workshop should be conducted on the subject of rain water harvesting system. Drainage water can be used for gardening etc. after its treatment. This will also ease the distribution of drinking water of AMC. A proposal has been initiated to make Rain water harvesting system mandatory while giving commencement certificate for constuction and to include it appendix V of development Control Rules by starting proceedings under section 37 of Maharashtra regional Town planning act 1966.
of lifting water from Jayakwadi Dam source. These electric pumps function 24 hours a day The AMC has to pay an exhorbitant amount of Rs.146 lakh per month to MSEB towards electricity charges sum remedical action can help in redusing this exhorbitant billing . Concssion is available if the power factor is kept as 0.96 or more. presentaly The A.M.C is getting concssion of Rs.0.60 lakh per month in respect of some of the pumps. If the power factor is kept at 0.96 more concssion can be obtained . The existing pumping machinery has become very old sinceS it was installed in the year 1975. This is also resulting in more billing. These should be replaced with new pumping machinery action in this direction has been statred. By installing Solar system at pump station premises expanditure on electircty consumption can be curtailed. This will required an amount of Rs.50 lakh for providing Solar system. Electricity can be saved by using 80 HPSV lamp is insted of 125. HPSV lamp . Action is benig taken is this regard.
Charging Agricultural use rate for consumption energy by A.M.C

As per existing system the electrictiy connections have been done on HTP-ITI basis. Accordingly MSEB levy charges. The pumping stations are located in rulel areas. Therefore MSEB authorities have been requested to charge at the rate agricultural use of energy. If the energy consumption charged at the rate of agricultural use then the billing amount will come Rs 200 Crores.

2. Solid Waste Management

Implementation of Solid Waste Management Act 2000. A piece of land admeasuring 25 acres out of Gat No.165 of village Naregaon has been made available by the Collector Aurangabad for disposal of solid waste. A separate solid waste management unit has been established with a medical officer as its head. For developing this land viz: construction of boundary wall, interal roads, pits, land
scaping outside wall, approach road etc. an amount of Rs.15 crore is required.

Alternate land for disposal of solid waste
The villages of Karodi submitted a representation on 25-12-2003 to the collector, Municipal Commissioner, C.E.O. Zilla Parishad and B.D.O. Aurangabad opposing the solid waste project at Karodi. In respect of this land at Karodi, a request has been made to member secretary, Maharshtra State Pollution Control Board vide letter no.279/ 2004 dt.24-2-2004 for issue of Authorisation Certificate. The same is pending. Even after making all out efforts on war footing by Aurangabad Municipal Corporation the said land has not been transferred to Aurangabad Municipal Corporation for solid waste management Project. Therefore the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation has again started efforts to find out some suitable alternate land and Govt. help is also sought vide letter addressed to shri.B.C.Khatua, Principal Secretary, Water supply & Sanitation Depaertment, Mantralaya, Mumbai.
Following are the efforts made by Aurangabad Municipal Corporation to find out suitable land for disposal of solid waste. Presently municipal Trenching Ground is situated at Mandki which 2.6 km away from Airport. A PIL was filed by Dr.Shaik Shafeeq in the High Court. Since the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation had not taken No Objection certificate from Airport for Mandki Trenching Ground, the Honble High Court has given directions on 6-2-2003 to shift the Trenching Ground from Mandki. Therefore the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation had started to find out suitable land at various places. A piece of land out of Gat No.135 of Karodi Village is selected by Aurangabad Municipal Corporation for which No Objection Certificate has been issued by Sr.Manager, Airport Aurangabad, Regional officer, Pollution Control Board, Dy.Conservator of Forests, Asstt.Director of Town Planning, CIDCO Administration, Sr. Geiologist, Superiondending Archeaologist & C.E.O. Zilla Parishad, Aurangabad. A proposal for transfer of this Govt. land has been sent to collectorate on 21-3-2003. The honble High Court after taking into consideration the oppistion on of Village Panchayat has instructed Maharashtra Govt. to transfer the land within 6 months. On 25-11-2003 the Divisional Commissioner and collector Aurangabad were instructed to make spot inspection of the land and to submit a report and also see that the villagers do not oppose the proposal.
Pre-monsoon Zero Garbage Campaign

Special sanitation campaign have been commenced through ward officers. Zero Garbage campaign is being implemented. Similarly as a preventive measure blood samples are collected by health centres, halogen tablets are distributed, leacking of pipeline is controlled, antimosquito medicines are spreayed. For medicines required at hospital, health centres, laboratories, medical equipments, and medicines for preventive measures etc. during next 20 years an amount of Rs.65 Crore is needed.

3. Sewerage and sanitation

For disposing off drainage water of the city a pumping station has been set up at Banewadi from where the drainage water is flown to Oxidation Pond at Kanchanwadi. Presently the functioning of both the pumping station and Oxidation Pond is out of order. Efforts are being made to put this system with mamimum capacity so that the Nallah water may be clean and there should be less pollution is the city. The work of construction of 5.26 MLD S.T.P. in Jhalta area for Zone B is in progress. Civil work is nearing completion. Pumps have been supplied for engineering work. After remaining machinery is received the work will be completed and the plant will be commissioned. Year 2001 2011 2021 2031 Propose/Estimated Population 8,73,000 13,72,000 16,50,000 25,00,000
Present condition of drainage system :

At present there are two treatment palnts of 5.26 and 5.38 capacity. It is necessary to make planning future drainage system taking into account the pollution condition of the city. While doing so it is also necessary to fix up the boundaries and limits of the Nallahs flowing through the city limits.
Population Vision
Previously while preparing drainage system the city population estimated in 2001 was taken as 2.00 lakh. Similarly the Govt. Engineering College had suggested to prepare scheme for 100 MLD costing Rs.700 Crore. However, considering the ground realities the following picture emerges.

Present About 11,00,000 Population The AMC has prepared a water supply scheme for the needs of populated estimated in 2031. In this scheme the need of water is taken @ 150 litre per capita. As per criteria in drainage system this is fixed 80% i.e. 120 liter per capita. As such for the year 2031 the system will have to be prepared for 300 MLD and for 2021 this will be for 200 MLD. port prepared by M/s. Shah Consultants it is revealed that city has been divided in two parts considering the land slope, rain water flow, river flow, catchment area, geographical slope etc.
Catchment Area :
Kham River Catchment Area - Zone (A) :
Planning of Scheme :
The pipe lines under the water supply system work on the method of pressure whereas under drainage system the pipes work on the basis of gravity. Therefore it is necessary to take into consideration the geographical status of the city. A study of reIn this Zone A, the old part of city, Municipal limits, additional municipal area including Padegaon, Mitmita, Bahvsinghpura, Garkheda, Shahnoorwadi, Part of Harsul, Kanchanwadi, Nakashatrawadi etc. has been included. This Zone A has further been divided into seven parts and considering natural

slope, Nallah flow, water flow etc. main sewer lines have been designed. These lines are as follows : Main Sewer A : Western part of Bibi Ka Maqbara Main Sewer B : Part of Kham River flowing through Himayat Bagh Nallah flowing through. Main Sewer C : Majnu Hill to Siddharth Garden, Barudgar Nala- Saraswat Bank-Nageshwarwadi. Main Sewer D : Nallah flowing through Hotel Rama International to Samarth Nagar-S.B. ColonyNageshwarwadi. Main Sewer E : Forest Office - Kranti chowk-Kham River. Main Sewer F : Nallah flowing through St.Francis High School-Paithan Gate. Main Sewer K : Kanchanwadi-Nakshatrawadi Wadagaon cart.
fore a survey of all these nallahs has become necessary. After survey boundaries and limits of the nallahs will be fixed and encroachments will be removed. For this purpose an amount of Rs. One Crore will be required. Aurangabad is the capital city of Marathwada Division and is its Divisional Headquarters. The city is having historical and archaeological importance. In view of this planning of infrastructure viz: roads, electricity, gardens, schools, hospitals and water have been done. In fact underground drainage system is also as important as water supply water. But unfortunately this has been neglected. It was necessary to consider underground drainage system at per with water supply system. As on today 120 MLD drainage water is disposed off through incomplete drainage pipe lines and on the mercy of natural flow of river & nallahs. This water is used for agriculture without any treatment. Which is resulting in harm to agril. land and underground water is also being polluted. Due to this it has also become difficult to use borewell waters. This is also adverserly affecting implementation of Environment Report. In the year 1972 a drainage system was prepared by the erstwhile municipal council for the use of population of 2 lakhs expected in 2001. It was a scheme of 15 MLD capacity. The estimated figures of city population have proved completely wrong due to 4-5 times increase in population. Accordingly all schemes have been proved to insufficient. Recently a join survey was conducted alongwith officers of Govt. Engineering College. The college vide letter no.ENV/2002/12 has submitted its report. This is a very preliminary report and does not through any light on the details of the project. Therefore it is necessary to prepare an exhaustive report on this subject. The govt. Engg. College
Catchment Area of Sukhna River - Zone (B)
In this Zone B, the areas of Naregaon, Brijwadi, Masnatpur, Chikalthana, MIDC, Mukundwadi, Cidco, Harsul, Jadhavwadi etc. For these areas two main sewer lines have been designed which area as follows. Main Sewer L : Nallah flowing through N-2, CidcoSukhna River. Main Sewer M : Chikalthana Gaothan-Chikalthana MIDC - Sukhna River.

Aquarium
An aquarium has been opened in Municipal Zoo in January 1997 . Fishes of various kinds are kept in this acquarium. Proposed Underground Aquarium. An underground aquarium can be constructed in Salim Ali Lake on the lines of other cities on BOT method In this acquarium fishes from various contries of the world can be kept. This Project will require Rs. 5 Crore.
Shifting of Municiapl Zoo

The present area of Zoo is insufficient .Therefore it is being proposed that the Zoo may be shifted to a larger area either in Himayat Bagh or in the area adjacent to Harsul Tank. Alternatively the area of Zoo can be extended by acquiring land on the south-west side. For this purpose an amount of Rs. 25 Crore will be required.
and in view of public health it is necessary to modernise the slaughter house on the lines of Deonar slaughter House of Mumbai in Padegaon area in AMC limits. For the purpose of modernisation of Municipal Slaughter House at Padegaon on amount of Rs. 4 Crore is required. During the year 1999-2000 an amount of Rs. 10 Lakh was received from Govt. of India. Tenders have been called at State Level for modernisation of slaughter House. The work will be started after finalisation of the tenders. With a view to complete modernisation work early, this can be done by appointing a consultant to avoid un authorised slaughtering a animals in the city.
Developmental work related with slaughter House.

Cold Storage : For stocking of meat a modern cold storage will be constructed. There will be separate cold storage for the large and small animals. one at Padegaon and one at Shah Bazar. An amount of Rs. 1 Crore is estimated and efforts will be made to complete this on Bot basis. Godown for Skin & Bones : The AMC has shifted skin & bone godown alongwith staughter house from the city. While constructing modern slaughter House, godowns for skin and bones will also have to be constructed for which an amount of Rs.1 Crore will be required. Tannery : The AMC has allotted a price of land near Mandki Trenching ground for tanning purposes which help is sanitation and public health.
Bird Sanctuary
For developing a bird sanctuary at the existing tank an amount of Rs. 2 Core is required. Publicity of Zoo With a view to give information to the public visiting the city about Zoo putting up hoardings at various prominent places in the city, painting photographs of wild animals of City Buses, giving information through AMC information Boards, giving information about wild animals in educational institutions will result in increase in number of visiting public in the Zoo.
Slaughter House
There are two slaughter Houses of AMC functioning in the City- one at Padegaon for large animals and the other at Shah Bazar for small animals.
Preventive Measures :
Squad for unauthorised slaughtering and sale. The AMC has formed a squad with the help of Police to keep a watch on unauthoritised slaughter and illegal sale of meat in the city. Police cases are filed in Police stations and the meat seized is destroyed in Trenching Ground. In view of increasing population it is necessary to
Modernisation of Slaughter House.

In future the number animals brought for slaughtering will increase with a view to supply clean meat
Pg 56
have four such squads to curb unauthorised slaughtering and sale of meat. Presently there are several private meat shops in the city. It is proposed to construct mutton market at various places in the city to have a control over meat sale and also to curb the illegal meat sale.
Other proposed works

Bengal Tiger
Cattle Pond
A central Cattle Pond has been constructed in 1995 in Garam Pani area where stray animals are kept which are caught by a squad appointed for this purpose. It is necessary to construct one more Ponds in Chikalthana area for CIDCO Action is being proposed in this regard.
Recently two pairs of Royal Bengal Tigers have been brought from Chatbir Zoo Chendigadh they have been dedicated to public on the occasion of Annuarsery of AMC on 08.10.2005 As per discussion with the authorities of Chatbir Zoo Chandigadh they are prepared to give hippopotamus. Therefore arrangements are being made to bring this animals for which an amount of 15.00 lakh is expected on its transportation and for construction of its house.
Dugdh Nagri
Veterinary Hospital :
Ailing animals are treated in Municipal Veterinary Hospital. Every Friday the hens are immunised. For pet dogs licences are issued and they are also given immunisation.
Dog Unit
A Govt. Dog Unit is working since 1984-85 to catch the stray dogs. After they are caught they are kept in the Dog House and are immunised. It is necessary to construct more Dog House in the city.
Dog House & Dog Hostel

To minimise the number of stray dogs in the city it is necessary to give them immunisation treatment. This keeps a control over the population of stray dogs. For this purpose a modern Dog House and a veterinary Hospital with surgery facilities are essential. There are many dog lovers in the city. However then face difficulties in summer and Diwali vacation to keep their pets. In view of this a Dog Hospital in necessary where these pets can be kept and taken care of temporarily on some charges from owners for this project an amount of Rs. 35 lakh will be required. This can also be done on Bot basis.
The AMC has decided to construct a Dugdh Nagri for shifting of all cattle stables existing in the city. The reservation has been kept in Chikalthan and near Padegaon slaughter House. A proposal has sent to collector for transfer of these Govt. lands work will be started soon after transfer of land to AMC. The construction of Dugdh Nagri will comprise of civil work, water supply, approach roads, electricity etc. This will cost about Rs. 2 Core. This does not include cost of land acquisition since Govt. land can be obtained free of cost from Govt.
Modern Laboratory
In Dudgh Nagri arrangements will have to be made for testing of milk and animal feeds. For which a modern Laboratory is necessary. An amount of Rs. 1 Crore is required for this work.
Shifting of Piggeries
The AMC has earmarked a piece of land at Naregaon Trenching Ground for piggeries. It is necessary to shift all pigs from city to this place to avoid public complaints. In Future whenever Trenching Ground will be made available, piggeries will also have to be shifted in the adjoining area of this ground. For this purpose an amount of Rs. 1 Crore will be required.
Pg 57
Environmental resources namely constitute air, water, land (soil) and vegetation. This section gives an outline of these resources of the city which are being used or likely to be used to support the urban life. The resources include both the living as well as non-living things. The interface of these resources with the developmental activities and issues arising out of the same are also described in this section.
d. Rainfall
In Aurangabad City the average rainfall is 725.8 mm and about 83% of the annual rainfall falls during June to September. Maximum rain is experienced in the month of July, some amount of rainfall occurs during May while the months of October and November are mainly in the form of thundershowers. On an average there are 46 rainy days and there is large variation in the annual rainfall from year to year.
1.Climate
a.Topography
Aurangabad city is surrounded by the hilly ranges from north, south and west sides at the attitude of 611 Mt. above mean sea level. Northern side Municipal limits are flanked by Jathwada hill ranges and on south locally named Satara hills are located. General topography of the city is undulating. Attitude of the city increases towards north side.
e. Temperature
May is the hottest month. With the mean daily maximum temperature 39.8 0C and mean daily minimum temperature 24.4 0C. During the hot season the day temperature may rise to about 45 0C. With the advance of the south-west monsoon in the district by the second week of June, there is appreciable drop in both the day and night temperature and the weather becomes pleasant. With the withdrawal of the monsoon by about the end of September the day temperatures increases a little and secondary maximum, day temperature is recorded in October but night temperature decreases progressively. After October both, the day and night temperatures decrease steadily. Cold weather commences by the end of November and temperatures begin to fall rapidly. December is the coldest month with the mean daily maximum temperature of 28.7 0C. And the mean daily minimum of 13 0C.In the cold season the city is sometimes affected by cold waves, when the minimum temperature may drop to about 2 0C.
b. Geology and Soil Condition

Aurangabad falls in semi-arid area with indicating topography, poor soil, and low productive of land. The soil is mostly formed from igneous rocks and is black, medium black, shallow and calcarious types having different depths and profiles.
c.Seasons :
The climate is characterized by hot summer and general dryness throughout the year except during southwest monsoon season. The year may be divided into four seasons. The cold season is from December to February and hot season from March to May. June to September is southwest monsoon period whereas October to November is post monsoon period.
f. Humidity
The air is generally dry except during the monsoon when the relative humidity is high. The summer months are the driest when the relative humidity is generally between 20 and 25 percent in the afternoons.
Pg 58
g. Winds
Winds are generally light to moderate with an increase in speeds during the latter half of the hot season and in the monsoon season. The winds blow predominantly from the directions between the West and North during the hot season. They are mostly from the direction between South-West and North -West during the monsoon season. They blow mostly from the directions between North-East and South -East during the rest of the year.
2 Air
Aurangabad has a weather monitoring location. The meteorological data for Aurangabad shows that the relative humidity in the area is 76% to 87 % during rainy season (June to September), 52 % to 64 % during the winter season (October to January) and 41% to 47 % during the summer season (February to May). The predominant wind direction during monsoon and summer is from the west, during winter it is from the east. If the whole year is considered the predominant wind direction is from the west.
h. General
The climate of Aurangabad is temperate with moderate winters in the months of November - February and hot summers from April through to June. This southwestern monsoon arrives here by end June - September and the city receives a moderate amount of rainfall. The climate of the city is generally dry except for the monsoon season. It receives an average annual rainfall of 170 mm. bulk of rainfall is received from the southwest monsoon, from the months of June to September. The average annual rainfall of the district ranges between 800 to 750 mm. The district often experiences drought with rainfall recording as low as 400 to 450 mm. The monsoon season starts from June and continues up September. The rainy season is followed by winter, which lasts up to February, during which the minimum temperature ranges from 11 0 C to 130 C. The winter is followed by hot summer, which continues up to June. The maximum day temperature ranges between 390 C & 42 0 C during summer. December is the coldest month of the year and May is the hottest month
3. Influence of Activity Sectors on Air

The activities in the city which are most likely to have adverse impact on the air quality are the industrial development and the vehicular traffic.
Industrial activity
The industrial activities in Aurangabad consist mainly of dal mills, foundries, sugar industry and oil extraction units. Out of this oil extraction units and sugar industries are likely to have maximum adverse impact from the fumes and dust if adequate abatement measures are not taken. The dal mills and seed production units are classified as green industries and do not have major impacts except dust and fine particles given out while polishing the pulses in the dal mills. There are a few cotton ginning and pressing mills in and around the city, the cotton fluff given out from these mills remains in the air and is carried all over the city. The various activities such as husking, cleaning, crushing, and conditioning of oil seeds in extraction units affect the air quality due to generation of dust. The emissions from the fuels used for mechanical oil expellers, pressing units and other equipments add to the air pollution. Other significant impact includes the odour nuisance from the extraction units.
Pg 59
Traffic and transport

The city has a high concentration of 2 wheelers and 3 wheelers and 4wheelers. The city does not have a public transport system and is dependent on auto rickshaws for the same. Most of the rickshaws are old and run on diesel adding to the air pollution. The town also attracts heavy goods traffic whose diesel engines are responsible for carbon particles emission. The roads and streets in the city are narrow and encroached hence the traffic is not free flowing, the continuous changing of gear and idling of engines affects the air quality. The climate of the city is dry and arid hence as vehicles pass on the roads lot of dust is generated and there is very little vegetation along the road to absorb the dust.
ground water pollution. Abandoned stone quarries need to be rehabilitated and rejuvenated so that they prevented from being misused as unauthorized dumping grounds.
Informal sector
The only activity impacting air is the weekly hide market that gives out strong odour. The other activities such as petty shops, pan stalls, small garages do not have a wide scale impact on the air quality. In most cases the air pollution caused is localized and the mixed land use of the city with residential areas close by affects the health of the people. In many cases the workshops are extension of the owners house and they themselves are ignorant about the dangers of the pollution.
Construction activity
Construction activity gives of lot of dust while mixing the cement concrete, breaking of old structures, digging, drilling etc. The operation of diesel mixers for concrete also pollutes the air. Construction activity also adds to the noise pollution. The debris and construction material when left un attended along the road causes inconvenience to motorists as well as pedestrians and increases the possibility of road accidents. The bricks kilns, stone quarries, stone crushers and soil quarries adversely the affect the environment. The key impacts include air pollution (increased levels of SPM & RSPM), land degradation, loss of forest/ vegetation, noise pollution and surface & Standards
Air quality monitoring

The above facts are strengthened in some aspects from the past air quality data available with the Aurangabad Municipal Council. The air quality shows very high levels of SPM near Cenral Bus Stand and Railway Station which are busy traffic junctions. SPM levels are also high in the areas of Town Hall, Jalna Road and City Chowk compared to the permissible standards. The SPM levels in the MIDC Chikhalthana area are low compared to the permissible standards. The sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide levels are within the permissible limits in The main reason for high SPM levels is the increasing vehicular traffic and absence of greenery along the roads to absorb the particles.

4 Topography and natural drainage

Aurangabad is situated on an altitude of 663 m above mean sea level. It has developed on the high level plateau which runs along the Nanded- Barshi and Ausa Road. The surrounding area is some what low level having good agriculture productivity. The Manjar River flows through the City and it is also drained by other nalas (streams).
m msl. The flows are generally separated by a red clay bed commonly called as Red bole. The thickness of alluvium ranges between 10-15 mtrs. The extension of alluvial belt is confined to 0.5-1 km. across the rivers. A number of lineaments which are fracture zones have been identified on the satellite imagery due to linear pattern, exhibited by darker tone and straight drainage course. These lineaments are favourable for occurrence of groundwater. The major lineament trends in the district are NW-SE, NE-SW and E-W.
5 Geology
This entire Aurangabad district is covered by the Deccan Trap lava flows of upper cretaceous to eocene age. The traps are overlain by thin alluvial deposits along the major rivers. The basaltic lava flows belonging to the Deccan Trap is the only major geological formation occurring in the district. The lava flows are horizontal and each flow has distinct two units. The upper layers consist of vesicular and amygdular zeolitic basalt while the bottom layer consists of massive basalt. The flow thickness ranges between 15-20 mts. And in all 10 flows have been demarcated which are lying between 510-740 Table 2: Existing land use in Aurangabad No. Land use type 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Residential Commercial Industrial Public & Semipublic Public Utility Transport & Communication Gardens & Playgrounds
6 Soil Characteristics and Land use

The predominant soil cover in the district is medium black to deep black calcareous formed with varying depth and texture. The soil in Aurangabad has coarse texture and is suitable for growing crops such as Jawar, Bajra, Wheat, Pulses and Sugarcane. The land use classification according to the DP is given below in Table 2 below.

7 Influence of Activity Sectors

The land use in the Aurangabad City shows that maximum area is under residential use as far as the developed area is concerned. The next major category is the industrial land use. Most of the industries in the city are located in the MIDC Estate on the Aurangabad Barshi Road to the south of the city. A significant portion of the city is undeveloped and is under agricultural use. This forms about 37 % of the total area of the city. The area for open spaces and recreation is very less and is 0.67 % of the developed area. The unauthorized disposal of industrial waste and municipal solid waste affects the soil quality thereby making it vulnerable for putting to effective public use in future. The brick kilns and stone quarries in the surrounding areas adversely affect the soil quality and landform in the near vicinity.
water is also likely to contain fat residues, ash residues and organic nitrogen. The city does not have an underground drainage system and generally all the waste water flows in to the Manjra River through a network of open drains. The industrial waste water will also find its way to the Manjra River and adversely affect its water quality.
Informal sector
The precise contribution of this sector in water pollution is difficult to determine. However the nature of activities is not likely to cause major water pollution, except in cases of garages and small workshops where the waste water contains lubricants and chemicals. The magnitude of this is small.
Housing and urbanization

As described in the Chapter 5 the City does not have an under ground drainage system and the sewage generated to the tune of 4.2 MLD is let into the Manjra River and other open drains without any treatment. Open drains passing through the city carrying waste water present an ugly sight and pose health hazard for the people. The absence of toilet facilities in slum areas forces the people to defecate in the open, they generally squat along the river or along the road side drains adding to the surface water pollution. Waste water recycling and rain water harvesting are not practiced in the city and there are no means of water auditing in the water supply system.
8 Surface water
The Manjra River flows through Aurangabad city. The length of the rivers within the municipal limits is 00 km and 00 km respectively. There is no documented evidence of fishing activity in the river. There is a fresh water lake opposite the Municipal Office in Aurangabad. Add on use of water
9 Influence of Activity Sectors on Surface Water

Industrial activity
Amongst the industries in Aurangabad the waste from the oil extraction units is most likely to affect the surface water quality. The waste water contains high organic content and chemicals used during the extraction and refining of the oil. The waste
10 Ground water
The major part of the district forms the moderately dissected basaltic plateau, which has moderate to good groundwater potential. The northern part forms the highly dissected basaltic plateau; the groundwater potential is expected to be poor. Good potential pockets for groundwater exploitation are
Pg 62
expected along the lineaments. The narrow alluvial deposits along the major river also form potential zones for groundwater exploitation. Jalna city falls in the central portion of the district and hence has good ground water potential. Add details of GSDA.
doned wells and pits the ground water gets contaminated when these pits are not lined properly.
Housing and urbanization
11 Influence of Activity Sectors on Ground water

Industrial activity
The ground water in Aurangabad district is known for its high nitrate content and the Central Pollution Control Board has declared it as one of the critical areas in the country. However its impact for the city as such is not known.
Water Quality Monitoring
The waste water generated from the different industries gets absorbed in the ground water when it is disposed without treatment into the open drains and even in cases where it is disposed off in abanTable : Water Samples Parameters Raw Water
The water quality monitored by the Municipal council shows that surface water quality is very poor where as the drinking water quality is fairly good.

12 Forest and vegetation

There are no forest areas in the city of Aurangabad. The gardens and play grounds have some vegetation in the form trees and shrubs. Roadside plantation is absent along most of the internal roads, it is seen on the roads in the outskirts and consists of trees such as gulmohur, copper pod, Bhendi etc. The vegetation along the river needs to be studied to present a detailed account of the riverside habitat. The absence of vegetation along roads adds to the problem of dust flying due to vehicular movement on the roads. The MIDC has certain amount of trees which helps in arresting the pollution.
13 Wildlife
There is no significant wildlife in the city such as rare and endangered species of fauna. However all the activity sectors if continued in an unplanned an unorganized manner may adversely affect the local flora and fauna in the long run.
14 Noise levels
The noise levels in the town were monitored at 10 locations spread across the town. The noise levels are particularly high in residential zone and the commercial areas.

16. What AMC is doing ?

As per provisions of section 67 of Bombay provincial Municipal Corporation Act 1949 it is mandatory for AMC to publish annual Environmental report of the city Accordingly the AMC publishes such report every year. Environment comprises of air,
water, land all living dead animals. Biological and non-biological elements are two main element environment of a place depends upon condition of adjacent areas of that place. Apart from urbanization and industrialization population is the main element for environment increasing urbanization, increase in population to improve economic condition cutting of trees, in crease in number of slums, increase in solid waste and bio-medical waste, drainage system public toilets, increase in vehicles, traffic accidents, air and sound pollution etc are some of the several problems improvement in en-
Pg 65
vironment means improvement in public health, providing facilities improving living stand and providing civic amenities, control over pollution and increasing population good etc. There is alternative except environmental condition for a better living for living beings. The AMC is conducting periodical tests to check air sound and water pollution level in different parts of the city with different timings. As per air pollution tests conducted by AMC the level of air pollution is below the standard set forth by the central Pollution Control Board. The drainage water and the effluent of industries are allowed directly to flow through river or nearest nallahs. This adversely affects the health condition of resident living in the vicinity. This also affects the fertility of agriculture land. Similarly a sound with 100 decibels causes dumbness. This also affects the working efficiency of man power. There is every possibility of following deficiencies. 1.Exhaustion, boredom 2.Temporary dumbness 3.Permanent dumbness 4.Mental depression 5.Effects on efficiency
which an amount of Rs.5 Lakh is spent As such for next 25 years an amount of Rs.1.25 Crore will be regaired for this work.
Tree plantation, Preservation and Development of Gardens

There are reservations for gardens, parks and open spaces etc in the development plan of the city. Details of there reservations are mentioned in statement No.1 Apart from these there are open spaces in sanctioned lay out and also there are some Municipal open lands. All these lands are proposed to be developed by doing tree plantation its preservation and by developing gardens and parks. Similarly tree plantation is done on Govt. lands hillocks etc. Following works are proposed in these developmental works. 1.Botanical park 2.Zoological park 3.Small gardens 4.Medium gardens 5.Big gardens 6.Green belts 7.Play grounds 8.Medicinal Plant garden In addition to existing gardens some 200 small-big gardens will have to be developed in next 25 years CIDCO area is also going to be transferred to AMC. Similarly there are large area of Municipal lands at oxidation pond Kanchavwadi where Ayurvedic garden con be developed gat No.9 of Nakshatrawadi, Gat Nos.214&215 adjacent to Harsul tank and also Gat No.235&236 As also land near Aurangabad Caves in S.No.237 Slaughter House premises in padeguon, S.No.31 of Bhavsinghpura, S.No.306&307 of mitmita premises of oxidation pond at kanchanwadi, S.No.17 of Pahadsinghpura and hanuman tekdi premises are such places where tree plantation and its preservation is nec-

essary. Similarly to remind our history, ancient treasure and monuments, such models can be developed. The models of nahar-e-Ambari and satvahan pillar can be prepared and installed in such gardens. The beautification of city roads is necessary for taking up tree plantation and its preservation. The following roads are included in this programme. This include tree plantation, providing road dividers. Traffic islands, developing lawns, electrification and foot paths. 1. Ajanta Naka to Delhi Gate 2. Airport to Mukundwadi 3. Sharnapur to Mahawir Chowk 4. Paithan Naka to Railway Station 5. Beed by pass Road 6. 50Km long roads in MIDC Chikalthana premises 7. 40 Roads pf 40 Km long the city area 8. Developing land beneath several fly over bridges 9. Tree plantation in kabrastans samsham bhoomi is open places, schools, Hospitals, Govt. Offices Octroi Nakas, College premises etc. 10.Tree plantation at historical places & Memori als etc. 11.Developing 25-50 M. Long strip at outside boundary of trenching ground. 12.Implementation of Beautiful clean and green Aurangabad project Developments of Tanks, water park lake view point rope way and beautiful & green Aurangabad project. There are three Tanks/lakes in the city viz. lake near Delhi gate, Harsul Tank and Kham Gate. The lake neat Delhi Gate is named after renowned Bird expert Dr.Salim Ali Boating facility is available. It is necessary that drainage water of CIDCO area is not allowed to mix with the clean water of this lake. The water depth can be increased by de-silting the lake. The capacity of water will increase and boating can be done throughout the year which is now restricted to certain period of the year. It is proposed to develop a jogging track foot paths and to develop a garden. Amusement items can be pro-
vided in existing garden adjacent to the lake. In Harsul Tank also Boating is done for a certain period to the year. A smruti van has been developed adjacent to tank. However, this requires further development with play items of children and proper electrification. A small island is existed in the middle of the Tank. This island can be developed by providing a rope way and can be thrown open to the public as a picnic centre. Adjacent to Harsul tank there is smruti van. There is lot of space available for garden and water park both at one place. The AMC has decided to develop a water park on an area of 5 acres on BOT basis. This will be a new attraction for tourists. A rope way can be provided upto island in the middle of the tank similarly there can be another rope way between Nipat Niranjan Hillock or Goga Baba Hillock. This possibility is being examined by the AMC. Birds from various parts of India and several other foreign countries migrate to Dr.Salim Ali Lake during a specific period of the year. Thousands of bird lovers visit this lake for bird watching as such a watching point can be developed here. Similarly, earthen dam at Harsul Tank, development of area of tank, water park near smruti van view points etc add more attraction and can result is increase in number of local and foreign tourists. By developing gardens, tree plantation & its preservation, development of lake and tank premises, green lawns etc. The city will become beautiful and clean. Hoarding having these slogans can also be put up at different places of the city. For all the above works an amount of Rs.32.37 Crore is estimated. Also for planting 2 Lakh trees and its preservation a further amount of Rs.10.88 Crore is required. Thus a total amount of Rs. 43.15 Crore is required for maintaining environmental

1. Statutory Provisions for Plan preparation
The statutory powers regarding Planning were embodied under the Bombay Town Planning Act- 1915, which was in force till it was replaced by the Town Planning Act of 1954. The act of 1954 incorporated the provisions of the Bombay Town Planning Act, 1915 and in addition, made it obligatory for every local authority to prepare a development plan for the entire area within its jurisdiction. The Bombay Town Planning Act, 1954 applied to lands within the municipal limits only and therefore there were no provisions for exercising proper and effective control over the planning and developments of lands in peripheral areas lying just outside the municipal limits and were growing in a haphazard and irregular manner. There was no statutory power under the Act of 1954 for the preparation of regional plans which, was therefore repealed and replaced by the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966. This act came in effect from January 11, 1967. This act provided for the establishment of regions and constitutions of the Regional Planning Board for preparation of Regional Plans, designation of sites for new towns, establishment of development authorities to create new towns, preparation of development plans for municipal areas and Town Planning Schemes for execution of the sanctioned Development Plans.
Aurangabad. The Bombay Town Planning Act, 1954 was applicable to the Marathwada Region under the provisions of the Bombay Town Planning (Extension and Amendment) Act, 1964 and it came into force with effect from May 1, 1965. The provisions of this act made it obligatory for every local authority to prepare a Development Plan for the area under its jurisdiction within a period of four years from the date the act came into force. Accordingly, Aurangabad Municipal Council prepared and published a Draft Development Plan for its limits of 54 sqkm which was sanctioned for a part of the area comprising of 8 planning units vide Govt. Notification No. TPS/3067/22693-W dated April 24, 1969. After following the stipulated provisions, the council, submitted the Development Plan prepared afresh for the remaining areas, which was also sanctioned by Govt. vide Notification No. TPS-3073-4259-W-2 dated January 6, 1975. After formation of the municipal corporation, a need for controlling and regulating the development in the extended area (18 villages) was felt. With this concern, a Development Plan for the extended area along with the area designated as No Development Zone in the earlier sanctioned Development Plan was prepared by AMC which was sanctioned by the Govt. in UD vide Notification No. TPS/3088/ 454-CR-59-88UD-12 dated October 15, 1991and it came into force with effect on November 19, 1991. In 1995, the municipal corporation undertook the revision of the remaining old sanctioned Development Plan of 1975. The municipal corporation declared its intention under section 23(1) [read with section 38] of the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966 to revise the sanctioned Development Plan of 1975 for the area excluding the area of No Development Zone and including the area denotified by CIDCO. This planning area under revision is almost developed and includes the congested CBD areas of the city.
1.1 Preparation of the Development Plan

The present Aurangabad Municipal Corporation with an area of 138.5 sq. kms under its jurisdiction came into existence from December 8, 1998 vide Govt. Resolution No. AMC/1082/207/CP-12/82UD21 dated December 3, 1982, after 18 villages were added to erstwhile A Class municipal council of

2 Landuse in the city

The land development as per the development plan in Aurangabad city has been under constant revisions owing to the presence of different planning
authorities like CIDCO and MIDC and the extensions of the municipal limits in 1969 and 1982. The details regarding the landuse under different plans are given in the table 3.1.

Note*: 1. The overlapping area (behind Bibi- ka- Maqbara) was shown in 1975 plan as residential area and in 1991, was retained as residential area. 2. The overlapping area was not considered in calculations hence the D.P. Report gives area under plan as 89.66 sqkms. ________________________________________________________________________ 3. In 1995, the old plan of 1975 of council area was revised which excluded the overlapping area. According to this Development Plan, a. b. c.

2.1 Landuse Analysis

As already stated there had been three different DPs prepared for the present AMC area. The details regarding the different landuse for different DPs are given in table 3.1. As per the ELU of 1969 for the council area (52.91
sqkms), only 19.84 percent of the total area was developed and residential area amounted to 5.12 percent. The ELU of 1991 for the revised area (25.29sqkms) shows that this residential area increased to 37.26 percent and the entire council area was developed.

3. Housing
The building and construction activity is controlled and regulated by the Town Planning Department of the corporation. However, there has been a lot of unauthorized construction in the city, owing to the discrepancies in land titles, as most of the area in the old city was donated by the Nizam of Hyderabad as Bakshis to his citizens. Another peculiar characteristic of housing development is that the area in CIDCO is developed in a systematic way whereas the development in the old city is haphazard with no regards to rules and regulations. Most of these are termed as slums even though they have good pucca houses.

4. Gunthewari
In the year 2002-2003 the Gunthewari Scheme came into existence under the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation. Till date 600 projects have been proposed, out of which 60 projects are completed. From the completion of these 60 projects Rs. 30,00,000 was obtained as the development charges, administrative charges and other charges. In areas like Srikrishnanagar, Uttamnagar, Bhanusnagar, Balajinagar, Mahunagar, etc. registration of the houses was done. The houses in this area do not have any proof of their existence and ownership. Therefore, the Gunthewari Scheme is not applied in such areas. In some areas of the city there are houses, 20x 30 in size. The open spaces in front these houses and in some cases, some
area inside the houses was used for widening of the roads. The cooperation of the people was obtained but was not as expected. Peoples participation is required for the promotion of the Gunthewari Scheme. To increase the participation of the local people in the Gunthewari Scheme, some advertisements need to be done. Certain papers are required for the enrollment in the Gunthewari Scheme. These are: l Application l Sales deed l Tax Clearance Certificate l 7/12, abstract, index- 2 l A promising letter of Rs200 on the stamp paper. l 6 prints of the map of the house.
Pg 73
For permission to be enrolled in the Gunthewari Scheme, the following charges are required. 1. Area development charges-Rs.120/sq.metre. 2. Administrative charges Rs.12.50/sq.metre. 3. Irregular administrative charges Rs.25/ sq.metre. By special order in 2005, Government of Maharashtra has allowed a proof of lawful possession as enough document for the regularization and no more a proof of lawful ownership is required. Due to lack of knowledge and unscrupulous elements, many poor and lower middle class people had got into a trap of buying a low cost land in illegal areas, where it was not allowed to transact for housing purposes, and thereafter remaining devoid of any civic amenities in unhygienic and very uncomfortable and compromising situations. Due to governments interference now civic body has been able to embark a massive program of Gunthewari development and regularization. It is expected that about 25000 houses will get regularized in coming months.

G. Tourism and History Profile

Aurangabad, a dream destination of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, founded in 1610, is known today, as one of the four important cities in Maharashtra. The city is heading towards rapid industrial growth, but retains its past glory and charms, heritage and traditions. Conspicuously seen on the Deccan plateau, it has a rich culture and a plethora of magnificent arts on display. The gateway to the World Heritage Sites of Ajanta and Ellora, Aurangabad is named after the last great Mughal em peror, Aurangzeb. Aurangabad district has a long history of art and culture to which several Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain Muslim communities have contributed over the years. Aurangabad, the district headquarters, is today a modern city, which offers visitors all the comforts and amenities. It has several luxury and budget hotels, shopping centers, hospitals and banks. In the city are three museums housing art treasures of the region- the Sunheri Mahal Museum, the University Museum and the Chhatrapati Shivaji Museum. The numerous city gates of Aurangabad are the most prominent remnants of an era that estab lished as a center of power in the Deccan region. The city was Aurangzebs military base and he made sure of its protection walls to resist any attacks. The city once has five fortifications and 52 gates, out of which 13
remain today. These gates at the cardinal points are named after the cities that lie far beyond. In that direction i.e. The Delhi Gate to the North, the Paithan Gate to the South, the mecca (Makkai) Gate to the West and the Jalna Gate to East. Tourism still remains one of the important factors in working of the city of Aurangabad. Thousands of tourists, including foreign tourists from various countries, visit the city throughout the year. The development of Aurangabad has been predominantly due to the importance of tourism industry. The tourists globally for its proximity to the world famous know Aurangabad heritage caves of Ajanta and Ellora.
Bibi-Ka Maqbara
Designed as a replica of the famous Taj Mahal, the BibiKa-Maqbara is one if the finest examples if Mughal architecture in the Deccan. Aurangzebs son, in memory of his mother Begum Rabis Durani, built it in 1678
Panchakki
An engineering feat of the time is the panchakki, or the water mill built in 1695 by Mallik Ambar. The water, channeled from a spring on a distant hill, was used to power the flourmill and grind grain for pilgrims. The gardens, with several fountains, are a memorial to a Sufi Sant.
Pg 75
Aurangabad Caves
Situated 3 kms. from Aurangabad city, these caves were excavated bes tween the 1 t and 6th century AD. Though predominantly Buddhist in dedication, they reflect tartaric influences in their iconography. These nine caves comprise mainly Viharas. The sculptures and paintings inside the caves consist of Buddha images, the Jataka tales and various Buddhist divinities

H. Financial Profile
H. Financial Profile
Since beginning octroi and property tax is the main source of income. Generally octroi duty is the backbone of income of Municipal Corporation. With a view of city development income is most important. The pace of development of the city, similarly industries, business and communication are responsible for the development. The flow of local and foreign tourists also adds to the income of the city. Because of Chikalthana and Railway Station Industrial Areas, Aurangabad City has rapidly developed.
The development of Waluj and Paithan Industrial Areas also had important effects on the development of the Aurangabad city. There is Agricultural produce market committee. The Committee had shifted business activities to a new and spacious place where truck terminal facilities have also been made available. Whole sale and retail business of vagetables, fruits and cereals are carried out there. The details of Annual Budgets with revised annual budgets, receipts and expenditures for the last 8 financial years have been mentioned in the following statement.

City Development Plan - 1. Process
1.Process
City Development Plan, by the virtue of being a document that is comprehensive, futuristic and fundamental from the perspective of a common dream for the city, requires a procedure of preparation that must ensure, foremost of all discussions and participation of all sections of society and not only elected representatives and the bureaucrats. Elected representatives though represent the population and bureaucrats though have rich experience in civic administration and handling of all sorts of situations that arise from time to time, can not be expected to produce a document that takes care of all aspects of civic life and all expectations of the general population. It was decided on the beginning only that a method will be devised to elicit and incorporate suggestions from a wide strata of people. First meeting in which requirement of CDP was communicated took place on 15th of July, 2005 in Mantralaya which led immediately to a meeting with all the office bearers in Aurangabad, on 19th of July, in which the concept was discussed and it was decided that city must prepare CDP as a basic document of development. The decision was announced in the press conference and suggestions from the general population as well as experts were elicited. All the head of the departments were informed and educated about the concept of CDP in details and the work of basic data preparation started immediately. Nagar-sachiv, one of the HOD was entrusted with the work of compilation and future coordination. All the corporators and public representatives were requested to give their suggestions and ideas and to participate in the process. About a year back a similar exercise was done by divisional commissioners office for the city and invaluable suggestions were obtained from their output document. All the experts and other resource persons were also involved. To give a formal structure to the whole process, eight committees were
made for different subjects who had four members of the corporation including minimum one lady member, subject experts residing in Aurangabad, concerned HOD and officials of corporation, and two journalists who write about the concerned subjects in the media, as members. On 20th December, representatives of All India Institute of Local Self Government were invited and they gave guidance to all the HODs for the making of CDP. After more meetings with office-bearers of the corporation, a rough structure was decided upon and basic data and concept were improved upon. These data and concept were circulated to all the members of the subject committee, after they had sufficient time to through these, a one day workshop was held on 13th of January, 2006, in which after introductory remarks and guidance, all the subject committees sat for the whole day in different sections of the building and did brainstorming on the subject allotted and gave recommendations at the end of the day. All the MPs, MLAs, ex-MP, retired high ranking bureaucrats, professors of professional colleges and other experts also attended the workshop. The suggestions that had come from the general public and other eminent personalities as a response to corporations request to participate were also discussed and considered. To have a well-defined focus of the discussion and to have output in a systematic format, all the subject committees were requested to submit their conclusions in a three page note: First Page: Vision statement and the goals/ projects for the subject allotted.
Second Page: Strategy to achieve the goals/ projects. Third Page: Schedule for implementation.
Pg 79
City Development Plan - 1. Process
Details of the subject committees are delineated in Appendix B.
All the suggestions of the subject committees were compiled and put before the General Body Meeting of the corporation and discussed and passed as CDP for the Aurangabad city. One point to emphasize here is that, a CDP, being a long term document, has to be a dynamic document and has to be revisited periodically not only to monitor its implementation but also to make suitable amendments either to the goals or to strategies that need be adopted to achieve those. CDP, thus, which has been prepared after long drawn and comprehensive discussion, may need to be fine tuned further later. City plans to do it while taking the current blue print to make the first steps towards planned and well-focused development of itself. It is expected to not only reduce incidences of issues acquiring urgent proportions before they are handled but also to optimize and prioritize the use of scare resources. No knee-jerk or ad-hoc projects or their implementations.

Vision/ Objectives/ Projects

Development Plan
b.
i. Vision
City should implement at least 75% of its development plan which has been made after so much of deliberations and thoughts. Also city should revise its development plan every 10 years to ensure that it represents changing needs of the city, and also ensures that rights of individual citizens owning lands under reservations do not get infringed indirectly, by reserving those lands without developing. Also obtaining the building permissions should be smooth, transparent and time bound to ensure there is no dis-incentive to go for unauthorized construction. Also illegal structures that have been constructed before 2001 should be regularized as per Government act while having a strict watch over further unauthorized constructions.

marked for purchase of further lands under reservations or for development of commercially unexploitable reservations. To allow the owners to develop the reservations through accommodation reservation route, wherein owner develops the reservation to the extent of 1.25 FSI, giving 0.25 FSI to corporation while commercially using the rest 1 FSI. To hand over the rights of development of reser vations that are commercially exploitable to agencies like MSRDC etc. which will develop these reservations, as they have resources, and ploughing back the premiums into the infrastructure projects implemented through them only. Open spaces can be handed over to the societ ies to protect after development and also to maintain them. To promote Group Housing Schemes .
iv. Projects
1. To develop at least 75% of reservations as out lined in the plan. 2. To keep revisiting the plan periodically to revise the plan to incorporate changing needs. 3. To simplify building permission procedures. 4. To strengthen encroachment removal and un authorized construction demolition squad. 5. To protect open spaces and develop them.
iii. Strategies
It is not possible for the corporation to develop the reservations outlined in development plan all by itself as the cost required for the land acquisition as well as its development is huge, as outlined in the city assessment chapter. This means that corporation must devise new strategies to develop these reservations. Some of the strategies may be: a. Develop the lands in possession with reserva tions that are commercially exploitable on a BOT basis, generating premiums that must be ear-
1. To digitize the whole development plan and de velop a layer over the basic satellite data. Currently corporation has already paid MRSAC money to obtain digitized satellite maps. 2. To earmark all the nallas and natural drains on the development plan. Discussions are on with District Collector office to obtain village maps and old maps showing all the nallas. Consideration is on to privatize survey of these nallas. 3. To get all the open spaces on the names of cor poration. Currently a list of all the open spaces as per permissions given in last decade has been submitted to the city survey office for putting corporations name on property card. 4.To computerize the checking system of building plans as well digitizing plans on a BOT basis. A test study has been done. Shortly tenders on BOT basis will be out. 5. To enlist all the commercially viable reservations where lands are not in possession of corpora-

tion and check feasibility of handing over development rights to agencies like MSRDC that have enough resources. To enlist all commercially viable reservations where lands are in possession of corporation and develop them on a BOT basis. Currently tenders have been finalized for four such reservations and work is expected to commence in month of July 2006. To simplify building byelaws. To modify building byelaws to make them in line with byelaws of other corporations and development agencies. Currently corporation has done resolution to implement TDR, make staircase free of FSI etc. and proposal has been sent to state government. To ensure that historic heritage of the city re mains untouched and conserved. Currently changes in the development rules, listing all the heritage buildings has been approved by the corporation and has been sent to state government for final approval.
b. Water supply
i. Vision
City should have a water supply system that Provides very good potable water,Provides minimum 150 liters per capita per day,Ensures up gradation of availability along with the growth of population,Is self sustaining i.e. works on no-profit, no-loss basis at least as for as running and annual maintenance charges are concerned,Ensures optimal use of scarce natural resource water, by use of metering and penalizing in terms of charges for more than optimal use of water,Incentivises use of recycle water,Takes into account in most appropriate way underground water and ensures recharge equal to at least the consumption,And promotes separation of different qualities of water for different uses like potable, non potable, irrigable, industrial etc.
ii. Objectives
v. Key Parameters
Key parameter for this percentage of reservations developed as per development plan and number of new building permissions granted vis a vis increase in properties as per satellite survey.
Above stated vision leads to following objectives: Up gradation of water system in terms of quantity and quality, Design of system with future requirement in view especially in terms of pipes laid, while pumping can be added as per demands, Rationalization of water tariffs, with these depending upon the quantity used, use water is put to, with inbuilt incentives for use of recycled water and disincentives for more than optimal use of water, ultimately adding up to balancing of annual expenditure and recovery, And Move towards use of meters for quantifying the water used.
iii. Strategies
To achieve the above stated objectives, Corporation should adopt following strategies: a. Implementation of Parallel Water Supply Scheme on a BOT basis. Corporation should appoint a private contractor to lift water from the Jaikwadi Dam where water has been reserved for the city and to bring it to the MBR after treatment.

Strategy should be to find a single private partner for this project so that all the three aspects of the project i.e. intake system, filtration system and transportation system are implemented by a single agency leadingto minimizing the margin of profit for the agency instead of adding up three margins for three agencies and ensuring that there is a single agency that is accountable. b. Saving cost of running the existing scheme by implementing energy saving methods like making pumps energy efficient, on a PPP basis, appointing agencies on a saving-sharing basis, thereby not making corporation invest upfront. This is most important as almost 75% of running cost is due to energy consumption. c. Reducing need of intake of water from the dam by incentivising and promoting use of recycled water at least for non-potable uses. This is also critical as city needs to lift water from the dam to the height of almost 80 meters. d. Raising the water charges to a level where the system can become self sustaining at least to the extent of running and maintenance cost. The depreciation and capital cost must continue to be cross subsidized from other taxes like octroi or property tax. e. To check the viability of captive power genera tion through unconventional means like wind, to ensure that energy bills of future remain in control. f. To move towards formation of a separate Water Board for the city to ensure more professional management, least political interference, greater ability to raise funds and clear cut demarcation of exact subsidy that keeps the system running.
iv. Projects 1) Parallel Water Supply Line on a BOT basis.
Outcome: The project has been designed to take care of the water supply needs of the city till 2031. Due to part implementation of a scheme by MJP for water supply system augmentation, distribution system has been slightly geared up but intake of water has not been improved. And hence the scheme has been designed to lift the water from the Dam and to transport after filtration to MBR. From MBR, corporation will take over as the distribution system starts. The project has been designed to add water in phases as population increases. Filtration and offtake has been designed to increase in phases while the transportation system has been designed to carry water as per the need of 2031, to minimize total capital outlay.
2)Making pumps energy efficient on a saving sharing basis.
Status: Pending with General Body for approval in principle. Outcome: Private party will implement the energy saving design and will save around 15 to 20% energy for the city. Out of the savings, a percentage will be shared with the party for initial three years. This will ensure that claims of the party are genuine and corporation needs not put any money upfront. Also pumps are maintained to this extent for next three years free of cost.
3) Isolating pumping machinery from load shading.
Status: Tenders called, Pre-bid meetings held. In the last stage of final financial bids.
Status: 1.08 crores have been paid to Maharashtra Electricity Distribution Company, for implementation. It has been implemented. This project saved citizens of the city from the vagaries of power cuts leading to disturbance of water supply schedule. Outcome: As city pumps its water almost at 5 stages, load shading really disturbs the distribution system and throws it out of gear, inviting public inconvenience and thus outcry. Hence City Corporation has paid 1.08 cr to DisCom for connecting its pumping stations to two different grids. This
Pg 83
has effectively isolated water supply system from load shading.

4) Water Audit.
of the citizens towards payment and recovery should get a boost.

5) Captive power generation.
Status: Underway. A professional agency has been appointed which has already given an interim report and is expected to submit the final report along with suggestions by December 06. Some of the suggestions that came along with the interim reports have already been implemented with 50% grants coming from the government of Maharashtra for the same. Outcome: This project should not only point out the quantity of water that is unaccounted for in the bills there by contributing directly to the loss to City Corporation but also will suggest changes in the system to save water and manage this scarce resource better. While pointing out the physical leakages it will also result in detection of illegal connections in the city. This will lead to better revenue realization vis--vis the water supplied. Also this is expected to reduce the public grievance that people who have legal connections have to take on the burden of all the raises in the charges that are effected to reduce the financial loss, thereby effectively subsidizing the illegal connections. This will lead to greater loyalty
Status: Under active consideration by the corporation. Detail discussions have been held with Maharashtra Distribution Company in this regard. The company has shown a positive response. Under publication is invitation for expression of interests from private parties for implementation. Outcome: It will have following outcomes: a. It will ensure that energy bill remains in control in future, as cost will be only maintenance cost. b. It will ensure that all the liability of DisCom on Corporation gets over as power generation will also generate units for supplying to DisCom in lieu of liability. c. It will make the corporation a green corporation wherein the entire energy requirement will come from environmentally clean energy. Other projects are detailed in Appendix D. v.

c Sewerage and Sanitation

i. Vision City should have a underground sewerage system that Covers 100% of the city, Collects and treats sewerage quantity that equals around 80% of water that is consumed in the city, Recovers its running and maintenance cost through Sewerage tax and not more than 20% of property tax collections, Upgrades its collection and treatment capacity along with increase in population and creation, Converts most of its intake into irrigable standards fit for reuse for non-potable use, Is environment friendly and ensures that no untreated sewerage goes into any natural NALA or drain, thereby creating any chances of ground water contamination or any environmental hazards. ii. Objectives Above stated adopted vision for sewerage system leads to following objectives: Augmenting the capacity of Sewerage Treatment Plants to around 100 mld in first phase and then raising it to 80% of water intake of city, in stages, Providing underground sewerage lines to all the households, Ensuring that no sewerage goes untreated into the natural nalas or drains, Lowering the cost through energy saving methods and raising the resources by upgrading the charges to meet the annual operation and maintenance costs. S.No 1 Parameter Percentage of households connected to underground sewerage system Treatment facility as percentage of intake of water Operative (including Maintenance) losses % of Sewerage that is discharged untreated Current Value 70
iii. Strategies It is expected that a BOT model or a PPP model may not be readily applicable to Sewerage system, strategy Aurangabad city wishes to implement is implement the system by its own by raising finances from Government of India and Government of Maharashtra and some financial institutions. Another strategy that may be undertaken to ensure professional management of the system is to convert the sewerage department into a board or attaching it to water board as when it comes to existence. Pumping costs can be lowered by taking on a partner on a saving-sharing basis. Another strategy is to check viability of BOT basis development of treatment plant where treated water is sold by the operator to nearby industry or other users on a charge basis and if needed the viability gap funding is done by corporation. iv Projects 1. Design and implementation of comprehensive Sewerage system for the city. 2. Addition of 5 MLD treatment facility. 3. Renewal and restarting the oxidation pond in Nakshatrawadi. 4. New sewerage main line connecting the sewer age system to oxidation plant. 5.

d. Solid waste management including Bio-Medical waste

i. Vision City intends to become cleanest city in the state. City wishes to provide its citizens garbage free social spaces, at the same time treating its garbage in a most environmentally sensitive way. ii.Objectives To minimize the garbage that is generated and finally taken to dumping ground. To segregate garbage at source so that different means of disposal may be adopted for different kinds of garbage. To incentivise local use of bio-degradable garbage for creation of fertilizer that can be used in local open spaces, gardens, private lawns etc. To have a scientifically managed Land Filling Site that complies with all the guidelines of Supreme Court. To have night sweeping so that transportation of the garbage does not hamper traffic and citizens find their city clean when they get out of their houses in the morning. iii.Strategies To outsource processing of garbage in a scientific and environmentally sensitive way. To privatize some part of the city for garbage lifting, as creation of new posts of scavengers is not economically sustainable for the city. To outsource transportation of the garbage to bring down the cost of transportation while improving the output. To incentivise the cleaning of internal roads of a layout by association of residents by decreasing their Property Tax. iv.Projects Following projects are needed to be taken up to achieve above stated vision and objectives: a. Scientific closure of current Dumping Site at
Naregaon. Current site has to be closed down scientifically as it is close to airport. b. Development of new Land Fill Site. It is proposed that a new Land Fill site be developed through privatization which will be suffice for next thirty years. It is expected that if city succeeds in minimizing its garbage than a much lesser area will be required. Thus firstly the project is to go for a land enough for ten years, given current volumes of garbage, so that if city is successful in reducing the volume of garbage to be disposed off, same land will be useful for next thirty years. c. Processing of garbage. Tenders have been pub lished for appointing an agency that will accept the garbage of the city, process it, convert it into fertilizer and sell it. This should lead to significant reduction in total garbage to dispose off finally. d. Collection and Transportation of garbage. As city is short of about 30% of required labor strength to collect the garbage daily, it is proposed that area under Ward Office i.e. Ward D be privatized for collection and sweeping. Tenders for this project are out. At present CIDCO area that has been recently taken over by corporation has privatized cleaning, sweeping and transportation of garbage and the system is running successfully.

To rope in private doctors not only for better and
dependable and wholesome data collection on prevalence of different diseases but also for secondary and tertiary treatments. 6. Though it is not financially possible for corpora tion to go for high spatiality secondary and tertiary treatment centers, corporation can adopt the strategy of entering into agreements with private and other hospitals to provide these services to urban poor at concessional rates. 7. Insurance for urban poor against accidents and life threatening disease is also a strategy that city government is willing to explore. iv. Projects Under SIP project sponsored by EU, corporation has made a project for computerizing all the data of Mothers and Children. This involves giving Simputers to all the lady workers that are entrusted with the responsibility of following up individual cases of expectant and neo mothers, and infants. Insurance for the whole city has been taken up for accidents and it is applicable to every one who has paid 100% property tax. Corporation is upgrading its machinery to tackle mosquito breeding grounds. First physical solutions and then biological and finally chemical methods like fogging is used for Malaria control program. Educational programs for teaching value of personal and social hygiene are underway under SIP. City must take up all the projects necessary to achieve above stated vision and objectives.

Projects a. Implementing Double accounting. A team of employees has been constituted in the accounts department for this. All the HODs have been asked to train two of their employees on this method of accounting. Tenders for making of liability and asset ledgers is currently under process. It is expected that within 1 year corporation would be running a test system where both the accounting methods will be done parallely. b. AMC @ Home. This project is already under implementation on a PPP basis and is running very well. Under this project, all the licenses, NOCs, permissions etc. are given to the citizen at their homes at a nominal charge. This has ensured that citizen does not have to spend his or her valuable time in coming to the corporation. c. AMC Online. This project is also under implementation through PPP route, wherein all the information required by any citizen is given on phone. This is the concept of call center applied to government. d. E-tendering This project is also under implementation from st June 1 , 2006, wherein all the tender forms are now on electronic format and are sold through a PPP route to the prospective bidders. Tenders are
also published on internet. e. ERP. This project envisions ERP solution to be implemented comprehensively for the whole of corporations spanning all departments and all activities. Tender for the project is under consideration and is expected to be out in June 2006. This will not only enhance accountability and financial consistency and checks and balances, but also will increase administrative efficiency tremendously. Other than above projects, corporation has also embarked on novel ways. For the current year i.e. 2006-07, corporation for the first time presented an OUTCOME BUDGET, that was appreciated by everyone. Also administration presented a CALANDER BUDGET which earmarks deadlines for all the projects undertaken in the budget. For financial soundness, corporation took part in ABHAY YOJNA of state government and got whole liability of about 150 cr. waived off, by entering one time settlement with MJP, and paying about 34 cr. upfront and agreeing to pay about 7 cr. by the end of September. Corporation is also implementing Right to Information Act, in letter and spirit to instill transparency and accountability in the system. Corporation is also in active dialogue stage with Maharashtra Electricity Distribution Company, to settle long standing dues of almost 217 cr. Corporation has decided to check the feasibility of a novel scheme of captive power generation to waive off this liability and to isolate itself from any increase in the cost of electricity in future.

Reforms - 1. Mandatory Reforms
Reforms
Representatives of the citizens, office-bearers among them, administration and citizens as a whole have recognized the need for time bound reforms for the sustainable development of the city. Some of the reforms which need increase or rationalization of the taxes or the charges for different services have also found favor with these stake holders. Even though JNNURM mandates some reforms, city government has anyway decided to embrace these reforms due to felt need rather than due to directives. Vide resolution dated 20/01/2006, and bearing number 156/02, city government has decided to implement all the reforms mandated by the central government in a time bound manner, as delineated below:
1. Mandatory Reforms
1.1 Adoption of modern accrual based double entry system of accounting:
1.1.1 Current Stage: AMC currently runs single entry system of accounting. 1.1.2 Vision and Process: AMC wishes to move to Double Entry system by the end of current financial year. Under process for tendering for making of assets and liabilities registers, and valuation of each of these entries. Also under process is the tender for ERP implementation with emphasis on double entry accounting system. It is expected that a trial run, when both single entry and double entry systems will run parallel for a year, should start from January, 2007. Officers and staff of Accounts Department are being given necessary training to adopt this new system. Commerce graduate employees are posted in Accounts Department and the new system is being implemented from the year 2006. 1.1.2 Schedule: Corporation intends to implement double entry system in financial year, 2006-07.
1.2 Introduction of a system of e-governance using IT applications, such as GIS and MIS for various services:
1.2.1 Current stage: The Aurangabad Municipal Corporation has started a website aurangabad. Mahapalika. org. Through this website all the details and procedures of all departments of Aurangabad Municipal Corporation have been made available for the used of citizens. The website also gives information about municipal estates, tourist places, important buildings, offices, officers, non-officials etc. This also
Pg 94
provides specimen of licenses, certificates and the procedure to obtain them.A separate complaint redressed centre has been established which provides all required informations to complainants. Tender forms are also made available on this website. Computerization has been done in respect of Accounts Department, Meeting Department, and Municipal Property Department etc. etc. The monthly pay slips, GPF slips etc. are being given to the employees through computerization. The bills of demand in respect of property tax and water charges have also been computerized. 1.2.2 Vision and Process: Vision is to implement full ERP package for the city government. Necessary budget allocations have been made in the current financial year and already passed by the General Body. Under tender process for ERP implementation. Tender forms have been discussed, presentations of different ERP product companies like SAP, Oracle and Microsoft representatives over, and are in final stages for publication of the tender. 1.2.3 Schedule: Corporation intends to implement full ERP system in next two financial years i.e. 200607 and 2007-08.
1.3 Reform of Property Tax with GIS:
Aurangabad Municipal Corporation out of these 1,44,207 properties have been assessed for property tax purposes. There is a demand of Rs.48 corers including arrears from these properties. To have assessment of all properties located in municipal limits a survey is being carried out through a private agency. While assessing a property NRV, certain percentage of General Tax, Sanitation Tax, State Education cess, Tree cess, Fire Tax, Water cess, Drainage Tax, Municipal Education cess, Road Tax and Employment Guarantee cess is levied. Out of this the amount collected towards state education cess, and Employment Guarantee cess is credited into state treasury. Similarly, 10% of P.T. levied on large premises is also credited into Govt. Treasury. The information of Assessment of Property Tax and recovery is given below: Total number of Properties : 1,46,062 Number of Properties assessed : 1,44,207 For the purposes of assessment the properties have been divided into two categories viz: properties meant for residential purpose. For assessment of non-residential properties the NRV is doubled and on this NRV various taxes/cesses are levied and a consolidated Bill of Demand is issued to property holder. While making assessment the properties are categorized as A,B,C,D depending upon nature of construction and the assessment is made accordingly. Expected monthly rent
1.3.1 Current Stage: There are 1,46,062 properties entered in the Assessment Registers maintained by Category of Building A B C D
Residential per sq.m. 9.50 7.20 6.30 3.10
Non- Residential per sq.m. 22.60 18.50 13.00 09.60

Rs. 40 Crore Rs. 47 Crore Rs. 48 Crore Rs. 12 Crore Rs. 11.40 Crore Rs. 17.50 Crore
1.4 Levy of reasonable user charges with the objective that the full cost of O & M or recurring cost is collected within next seven years:
1.3.2 Vision and Process: Vision is to have full survey of the properties in the city area, link it with GIS, have a regular system of updation by both physical surveys and by satellite images that may be bought from MRSAC. Access to ones property tax details through internet, payment through e-commerce as well as banks, acceptance of requests for the changes through net is also a part of future vision. Full survey of properties in the corporation area has been completed which led to jumping of properties no from 90000 to 143000. Computerization of basic data is complete. Notices are on for finalization of the property tax. Basic layer of properties as per satellite data from MRSAC is ready, has been paid for by the corporation. Proposal for linking the two is under consideration. Corporation is also seriously considering a proposal to tender out the annual process of obtaining data from MRSAC, its linking with the properties, completion of all procedures for laving of taxes for newly found properties this way and to share a percentage of the increase. 1.3.3. Schedule: Linking of GIS with property tax to be done in next financial year, i.e. 2006-07.
1.4.1 Current stage: Corporation subsidizes water supply and drainage services to the tune of almost 50% through other taxations. New water supply project for augmentation of water source and parallel water supply line will have charges to be levied related to the O&M cost. Capital expenditure of that will however come from the other taxations. Municipal Transport service launched by the corporation is without any subsidy and through BOT route it has ensured that not only are the rates of tickets very affordable to everyone, it earns a loyalty of about 40 lakhs a year.

Reforms - 2. Optional Reforms:
1.6 Provision of basic services to the urban poor including security of tenure at affordable prices, improved housing, water supply and sanitation. Delivery of other existing universal services of the government for education, health and social security is ensured:
2. Optional Reforms:
Other than these mandatory reforms, following optional reforms are being taken up the corporation: 2.1 Revision of bye laws for building c onstruction etc. 2.1.1 Current Status: Administration has undertaken serious measures to streamline the process of grant of building permission etc. Administration has officially moved from the system of betterment charges to self development; also system of approval of estimates has been simplified by giving model estimates; even tax incentives for builders going for group housing schemes has been approved by General Body of corporation. 2.1.2 Vision and Process: To simplify rules and byelaws for granting and regulating building permissions. It is also a conscious effort on part of AMC to give thrust to Group-Housing schemes. AMC is the only corporation that has started giving 50% property tax concessions for the people living Group-Housing schemes. Regular meetings with the Architects and Builders associations for feed backs and for improvement suggestions is taken. 2.1.3 Schedule : Two years.
2.2 Earmarking of at least 20-25% of developed land in all housing projects for EWS/LIG category with a system of cross subsidization.
1.6.1 Current Stage: Security of tenure is a state subject, but a massive drive has been taken to regularize unauthorized structures owned by urban poor who could not afford housing otherwise, under Gunthewari Act, so that each one of them has access to basic services like roads, water and sanitation. Out of expected 40000 households like this, 20000 have already been survey and notices to about 6000 have already been issued, in response to which about 2000 have applied for the regularization. It is expected that this procedure will lead to regularization of at least 20000 households out of expected households in next six months. Once this goal is realized, corporation can give these poor all the services which is otherwise not possible legally. Education, health and other universal services are targeted more for urban poor, but will now be specifically and focused targeted. Though social security is not guaranteed but corporation has implemented a novel scheme under which all the citizens who pay property tax regularly are ensured by the corporation for 25000 accidental benefits. No other social security is implemented. 1.6.2 Vision and Process: To regularize and develop Gunthewari areas in totality as well as slum areas, leading to proposals for the conferment of land titles by the state government. Process for both, Gunthewari as well as Slum development is in full swing, as delineated above. 1.6.3 Schedule: Seven Years .
2.2.1 Current Status: This reform will require change in the act and the rules. 2.2.2 Vision and Process: This may be taken up under guidance of state government.

2.2.3 Schedule: This may be taken up under guidance of state government.

2.3 Revision of byelaws to make rain water harvesting mandatory in all buildings and adoptions of water conservation measures.
intends to outsource most of its activities to reduce administrative expenditure. 2.5.2 Vision and Process: To make administration lean and efficient. To reduce the layers for a decision making process. 2.5.3 Schedule: Two years.
2.6 Structural reforms.
2.3.1 Current Status : This reform has already been implemented with rain water harvesting compulsory. 2.3.2 Vision and Process: This reform has already been implemented with rain water harvesting compulsory. 2.3.3 Schedule: This reform has already been implemented with rain water harvesting compulsory.
2.4 Bylaws for reuse of recycled water:
2.4.1 Current Status: Proposal for tax incentive for reuse of recycled water is under consideration. 2.4.2 Vision and Process: To incentivise use of recycled water by decreasing the tax leviable. Process is to put to General Body after due consideration, and seek approval. 2.4.3 Schedule: Current Financial Year.
2.5 Administrative reforms:
2.6.1 Current Status: Corporation will take up structural reforms in phases. However PPP route has been adopted for reforms at public interface level. Novel schemes like AMC@home, and AMConline has already been implemented along with single window system. Efforts are on for minimization of work at corporation level and works that need not be carried out are being eliminated. 2.6.2 Vision and Process: Vision is to have delivery mechanism and structure streamlined, administrative structure of the corporation lean and efficient. 2.6.3 Schedule: Two years.
2.7 Encouraging Public Private Partnership.
2.5.1 Current Status: Corporation has its administrative expenditure under 40% of its budget. However, while taking over CIDCO area in corporation limits, corporation intends to increase its staff by bare minimum and reduce this percentage below 30%. Again when corporation started its municipal transport system, it did by BOT route and did not add even a single person on its establishment while running a fleet of 150 buses finally. Corporation also
2.7.1 Current Status: Corporation has started municipal transport with PPP. About 14 projects have been given administrative approval for BOT implementation. Even in Gunthewari regularization project, help of 7 agencies have been taken in a novel and comprehensive way that precludes need of individual citizen to come to corporation and which ensures that a massive project of its dimensions, regularizing 40000 houses, can be completed in 6 months rather than 2 to 3 years. Corporation intends to explore all the fields in which better ser-
Pg 99

vices can be offered at lower cost, without increasing its expenditure by going via PPP route. Experience of corporation in this regard has been encouraging. 2.7.2.Vision and Process: To embrace PPP way for all the process that are amenable for this route. It is also envisioned that most of the non-core functions can be better performed through this route, though enough safeguards must be put in the system to ensure no monopolistic situation is created leading to any kind of exploitation of citizens. 2.7.3 Schedule: Two years.

Implementation and Budgeting - Budgeting - Monitoring and Revision of CDP
Budgeting
Annual budget, that the corporation prepares every year, plans for that year the receipts as well as the expenditure. However its effect should be seen in the change in the key parameters of urban life, and thus more than the financial budget, the outcome budget becomes more important for knowing its contribution towards the vision that has been enumerated in this document. It is thus planned that from 2006-07 onwards, every year, the city will not only prepare the financial budget but also its outcome budget. This has been started in right earnest and the budget that has been prepared for 2006-07 and presented to the General Body for acceptance has outcome budget too. This will help keep an eye on whether after the annual expenditure has been made, city has progressed in the right direction or not. Another issue to be addressed is that this document talks about different key parameters for different aspects of city governance to be achieved in a particular timely way (as detailed in the calendar section preceding current section), and every budgeting exercise should take into account this fact while planning its revenue and expenditure. Financial projections for the different projects enumerated in this document must get aligned with the budgets of successive years. Again the strategies that have been suggested in this document, should get reflected in the budgets. It is the budget that is implemented in any given year. Thus while preparing the budget of any year, CDP must be used as a guiding tool. This has been started in right earnest by the administration. And thus budget that has been submitted to General Body has new heads like premiums from BOT proposals like Bus Transport, Amusement park, commercial complexes etc. on the revenue side and has new heads like expenditure on ERP solution, payment to private agency for maintenance and upgradation to energy saving in street lights etc. in the expenditure side. Next year, once the BOOT
project on water supply rolls out, heads in revenue and expenditure sides will also get added correspondingly. New revenue sources enumerated in this document as well as new ways of expenditure (through PPP) must get reflected. Annual Budgets will also serve as important yardsticks to know whether implementation of CDP is on track. The composition of the revenue receipts from different taxes and sources should get modified to that expected after realization of vision. Thus city must links its successive budgets to CDP and use budgets to keep track of its implementation also.
Monitoring and Revision of CDP

It is proposed that a committee at the city level, by the name of City Management Committee be formed with Hon. Mayor as the chairman and drawing its members from the elected representatives as well as eminent personalities and experts from the citizens to meet at least twice a year to oversee the implementation and the progress made under CDP. There will be another executive committee under chairmanship of Commissioner to implement the CDP, under the overall guidance of City Management Committee. It would be the responsibilities of these committees to monitor the implementation of CDP and also to take up necessary discussion steps with all concern if any need is felt to revise the CDP, or to revise its targets. Without such periodic monitoring and necessary revision, CDP may soon loose its relevance with time.

Epilogue
The city government, after much internal and external debate and discussions, has given itself this City Development Plan, formally vide the resolution stated in the last chapter and has also committed itself to implement it through the MOU proposed therein. The success of the plan, and thus of the city itself in giving its citizens every aspect of urban life enumerated in its vision, will depend upon the continuance of this earnestness. This earnestness can be demonstrated every year by linking this document with its budgetary process and by making sure that each successive budget takes city further on the path shown in this document. As also stated in prologue and the chapter on implementation and monitoring of CDP, this document is a dynamic one, requiring frequent revisits and modifications, to take care of changes in internal as well external environments. This dynamism and earnestness will surely take city on the path to achieving its vision for its citizens. How close the city gets to achieving this vision will be the test of success of this exercise of making CDP and of the ambitious program JNURM, launched by Government of India, in respect of Aurangabad City.
