The process of developing a PRS varies greatly because it takes place in different countries, under different kinds of governments and circumstances. In general, though, the process can be thought of in terms of several phases, although certain elements, particularly participatory processes, may run throughout.
This PPT delivered to Scholars of Indian School of Public Policy outlines various reforms / actions need to be undertaken to improve urban finances in India.
This presentation outlines various issues associated with having sustainable urban/city transport systems in Indian Cities / Municipal Bodies and possible way forward.

In the socio-economic planning process, the understanding of the interrelationships underlying the two types of landscape above described is essential. Each regional context is characterized by particularities of history, by attitudes, beliefs and values, political and legal traditions different socio-economic patterns and concept of justice, interpretation of planning tasks and responsibilities and different structures of governance, in other terms: by its specific characteristics. In spatial planning, physical and social features like topography, drainage, climate, population settlements etc. are significant elements. They are interlinked and interdependent in such a way that they affect each other. So, change in any single element brings change in whole pattern of the region. This present review article attempts the analysis of different aspects of development in the region for its socio-economic development. It explains the concepts of space, region and planning and focuses on need of planning and types of planning locational theories of planning. The ideas of the present paper may be useful in generation of a platform for better spatial planning to bring improvement in social well- being of the people living in this region.

Deanna’s Input for Question 3As Chief Financial Management Of.docxedwardmarivel
Deanna’s Input for Question 3:
As Chief Financial Management Officer of Riverside County, water resources are a top priority to ensure public needs are adequately being met for all county communities. The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, springs, and wells. It is extremely important to eliminate as many contaminants in drinking water for the public health. As such high demands in the county for clean drinking water, there is a need to create a new water management policy, which includes the development of a new drinking water treatment plant to respond to this critical need. The proposed drinking water treatment plant could produce close to 3 million gallons of drinking water per day diminishing the water crises. In addition, the county could potentially sell water to neighboring counties and the agricultural sector to help increase local revenue to the county. The policy requires an initial outlay of $20M and subsequent annual outlays of $5M for the foreseeable future.
How would I approach this task?
The first step would be to convene an interdepartmental capital allocation committee to examine the proposed policy in combining existing capital improvement projects and the overall county master plan for land use. If committee members agree to the feasibility of moving forward the next step would be to update the existing capital improvement plan (CIP), which spans multiple years to ensure adequate resources are available for the proposed water management policy and new facility. Edits to the existing CIP would include the follow:
1. Capital budget manual – contains a calendar or flowchart of the process, instructions, and forms for departments to use when completing requests
2. Cost projections – determining exact costs of each project
3. Revenue estimations – detailed estimate and availability of revenue, both reoccurring and from bond sales
4. Debt planning – outlining debt needs; scheduling voter referendum to authorize debt funding; obtaining voter approval on bond sales
5. Public hearing – schedule public hearing, prior to capital budget approval
6. Prepare final executive budget request
Information, I would need to know:
· Goals, timeliness and identification of various funding sources
· Financial analysis to include: 1) Cost-Benefit analysis – cost v. overall net benefit;
· Financial Condition Analysis
I. Existing long-term debt commitments/obligations
II. Population Growth Trends (e.g., housing, business)
· History of existing and recent user and property taxes – provides insight into existing taxes currently being levied on the community; property sales and tax info would be instrumental in helping to determine trends in sales and ability to generate revenue through levies (impose, “a tax, fee, or fine) and regional commerce activity.
· Fiscal S.

Presentation created by Hinesville City Manager Billy Edwards to explain the city's budget preparation and execution process. This document was created in 2012.
In this webinar we cover basic principles to address diversity equity and inclusion, developing community wealth, strategies to build collaboration, and building local businesses and economies.
The estimated contribution of urban area to India’s GDP is approximately 70-75%. Despite the enormous economic contribution, the current state of urban infrastructure is in poor condition. It is estimated that by 2030, an additional $1.2 trillion would be required to provide basic urban services. In this presentation, an attempt has been made to find out the ways to mobilize such a huge financial requirement. The target audience of this presentation includes inter alia urban development and finance professionals, city managers and the general public.

4. The NYC Budget is split up into the following components:
Expense Budget:
- The Expense Budget funds things like government salaries, pensions,
and operating expenses
Revenue Budget:
- The Revenue Budget contains an estimate of how much money the
city will take in each year in taxes, fines, fees, and state/federal grants
The Contract Budget
- A subset of the expense budget, includes all contractual services
The Financial Plan
- Released 4 times each year, and provides a multiyear perspective on
city spending and revenues.
5. The Capital Budget
-Capital funding funds physical infrastructure and equipment
projects undertaken by city agencies (parks renovations,
roadwork), as well as nonprofit organizations.
-Capital projects must have a value of at least $35,000 for
equipment purchases, and a useful life of at least 5 years.
-In order for the city to fund a non-city capital construction
project, there must be a minimum city contribution of at least
$500,000.
-There is a third category of capital spending, known as
minimally-attached moveable property, where the minimum city
contribution is $250,000.
6. The two major players in the budget process each year are the
Mayor and the City Council.
ROLE OF THE MAYOR:
The Mayor allocates funding to all city agencies, determines the
non-property tax revenue forecast for the City, proposes the
Preliminary and Expense Budget each year, and negotiates with the
City Council over the final adopted budget.
The primary agency within the Mayor’s Office responsible for the
overarching budget of the City is the Office of Management and
Budget, or OMB.
7. ROLE OF THE CITY COUNCIL
The City Council is responsible for reviewing and holding
hearings on the Mayor’s Preliminary and Executive Budget,
negotiating internally and with the Mayor on budget items,
adopting the final budget, accepting or rejecting budget
modifications throughout the year, and also making allocations to
both the Expense and Capital Budget through the Member Item
Process.
Though much-maligned, the Member Item process provides
valuable support to nonprofit organizations and city agencies in
the form of small discretionary grants, as well as larger
allocations generally known as Speaker Initiatives.
The City Council is currently revising the way that Discretionary
Funding is allocated through Rules Reform, though the exact
details of the changes are not known at this time.
8. OTHER RESOURCES FOR INFO ON THE BUDGET
1) The New York City Council publishes all of its budget
hearing reports on its website at www.council.nyc.gov
2) The NYC Independent Budget Office, provides
nonpartisan information about New York City's budget to the
public and their elected officials. IBO presents its budgetary
reviews, economic forecasts, and policy analyses in the form
of reports, testimony, memos, letters, and presentations. IBO
also produces guides to understanding the budget and
provides online access to key revenue and spending data
from past years. You can visit them at www.ibo.nyc.ny.us
9. OTHER RESOURCES FOR INFO ON THE BUDGET
3) The NYC Comptroller is responsible for auditing and
providing comprehensive oversight of the city’s budget. The
Comptroller also oversees the 5 pension funds ($140b in
assets), reviews Contracts, issues City Bonds, and more.
More info on the comptroller can be found at
comptroller.nyc.gov
4) There are also many other good government and
advocacy organizations that provide important insight and
analysis of the city’s budget process such as the Citizens
Budget Commission.
10. OVERALL NYC AND NATIONAL BUDGET OUTLOOK
Relying on the IBO (which is often more optimistic than OMB),
there is a projected surplus of $833m for FY15, and a FY16
shortfall of $1.6b, which seems large but is actually only 2.9% of
city generated revenues.
IBO projects national real GDP growth of 3.5% in FY15, 3.2% in
FY16, 2.7% in FY17, and 2.4% in FY18.
IBO also projects that in NYC, job growth will increase by an
average of about 1.5% over the next 5 years.
Personal income will grow an average of about 5% over the next
5 years, including 5.6% in FY15 and FY16.
11. FY15 NYC BUDGET OVERVIEW
For Fiscal Year 2015, the New York City Executive Budget is
approximately $75 billion.
Of that amount, approximately $48b comes from taxes, $12b

- $15.5b is spent on health and social services (Medicaid,
HHC, DOHMH, DHS, etc.)

toward the Department of Education.
- $9.1b goes toward uniform services (police, fire, corrections,
and sanitation)
- $8.3b goes to all other agencies
-$5.2b in fringe expenditures
-$4.9b in debt service
-$8.2b in pension costs

Each Year, the NYC Charter requires Borough Presidents, via the
Borough Board, to submit a comprehensive statement on the budget
priorities of the borough to the Mayor, City Council, and OMB
The Charter also requires that public notice be given to solicit input
and recommendations from the public on the budget needs of the
Borough. In order to comply with this requirement, an online budget
priorities survey was made available from March 6, 2014 – March 18,
2014, and a public hearing was held on March 20, 2014.
24. This year, our office received responses from 425 individuals,
representing all twelve Community Board Districts.
Respondents were asked to rate a number of budget priorities in terms of
their importance to the respondent, from 1-5. The following programs were
identified as most important (% ranked 4 or 5 in parentheses):
