smart cities. And nothing else is such a world-wide economic opportunity. Neelie Kroes Vice President European Commission

'Smart Cities’…should be hubs of economic activity…."

"Cities in the past were

built on riverbanks. They

are now built along

highways. But in the

future, they will be built

based on availability of

optical fiber networks

and next-generation

infrastructure."

WHY the Smart Cities

Council India

India’s Promising Smart Cities @ Smart Cities

Summit – Feb 2015 - Delhi

Flexibility - Three Models - Retrofitting, Redevelopment, Greenfield or mix thereof. It is free to choose depending on vision, local context and resources. However, minimum package of features are essential. Inclusive - since, approach is of compact area, all residents of city must be part of the Smart City initiative. PAN City feature added as essential requirement for every proposal. Synergy – Wherever possible smart city to be complimented by other scheme like AMRUT, HRIDAY, Swacch Bharat, Housing for All, etc.

PILLARS

Competition - First time two stage competition for selection as Smart City. Stage-I - Intra-State, based on the laid down criterial (which is over). Stage-II – also completed which has seen the selection of 20 cities among 97 contenders Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) - 50:50 Joint Venture between State Government and Urban Local Body will be the SPV to implement each Smart City. SPV will plan, appraise, approve, release funds, monitor and evaluate all projects in the Smart City. SPV mechanism helps (i) especially an independent, healthy balance sheet to enable mobilisation of resources, and (ii) give flexibility of implementation, especially with regard to engaging professional expertise.

PILLARS (cont’d)

Financing- Smart City programme envisages mobilisation of funds from private sources to supplement Government contribution. GOI contribution Rs. 100 crore per city per year with matching contribution of State Government. Innovative financing mechanism to be devised. Development Charges, User Fees, Loans from domestic and international Financing Institution, PPP Projects etc. Lenders and investors will seek comfort on payments/returns. SPVs to look at Escrow of revenues, guarantee by State Financial intermediaries, etc. Business Model very important for mobilising private finances. Using an average figure of 1 million people in each of the 100 smart cities, the total estimate of investment requirements for the smart city comes to Rs 7 lakh crore over 20 years (with an annual escalation of 10 per cent).

PILLARS (cont’d)

Challenges • Mindset • Legacy • Finance • Capacity building • Administrative structure of ULBs • Talent • Silo’ism • Multi-vendor environment • Timely clearances • Transparency

Ten Smart Cities Guidelines • Land Pooling:

– Inclusiveness, Financially wise solution, expedites project execution

• Transparency: – Concrete well incubated plans for long term attract firm investments, faith in execution

and delivery enhances value of investment

• Financial sustainability: – Projects which can sustain by user charges, capital costs which are structured in a gradual

gradient, analysis of accounts and mapping alongwith need assessment of cities/state

• Capacity building: – Training for conceptualising projects, monitoring, maintenance and replacement

• E-Governance: – Winning the confidence of citizens by an efficient grievance redressal system,

accountability on government services to respond within time frames for raising objections, use of information technology (a’la Income Tax etc)

Ten Smart Cities Guidelines (Contd) • Technology

– Universal open protocol systems, open data, security, privacy, ability to measure and allocate resources are to be considered as a means of planning well into the future which would include the capture of data e.g. data of flooding in areas could be a good indicator for its probable solution

• Resilience – Disaster management strategy, emergency citizen protection protocol, rebuilding, reconnecting e,g,

in Japan even buildings do not suffer a damage at earthquakes of 7 on Richter scale • Inclusiveness

– Planning projects to meet the provision of benchmarks for healthcare, education, job opportunities e.g. affordable housing offered on rental basis by PPP with developers on government land on BOT basis

• Retrofitting – Policies to measure the effectiveness of using current legacy systems integrated with new systems

and ascertainment of the point of replacement. Here creation of a GIS for city mapping can help developers and municipal wards ascertain accurate value and cost of development

• Social Cost – All projects to be planned and executed bearing in mind social cost which may include

inconvenience to citizens, users, investors versus the cost of lack of facility being installed.

Deliver people-first solutions

The police department collaborated with Council partner Microsoft in developing advanced surveillance with analytical features keeping vigilance on entire city from remote command and control center
