History of Town Planning_Building and Town PlanningA Makwana
The term town planning is used to indicate the arrangement of various components of a town in such a way that the town as such attains the significance of a living organism.
The policy of govt and public sector institutions is to support and develop housing programmes on the basis of availability of resources and on their perception of housing demand and affordability rather than on the basis of the requirements and affordability of prospective beneficiaries.
The National Housing policy of the government of India has highly laid emphasis on the need for public sector agencies to increasingly play the role of a facilitator of the housing process and create the enabling environment in which the requisite inputs would flow into the housing sector more easily than in the past.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Syllabus
Town Planning
• Review of Planning Legislation and acts relating to urban
and regional planning. Building bye laws planning
agencies and their functions, D.C. rules or city. Concept
of FSI, fungible FSI and TDR. FSI in few important
cities across Indian region and around the World.
Norms for FSI utilization for different kind of buildings
like residential, commercial, education and hospitals.
Redevelopment of building in cities. Reforms in D.C
rules by U.D department of state government and
municipal authorities.
3. Town Planning
• The growth of civilization has also resulted in more and
more laws, regulations, and restrictions and of course
their violations as well.
• There are laws and laws, all around such as
constitutional, civic laws, traffic laws, financial laws,
personal laws etc.
• while some of the laws are essential for the humanity,
there are other which held ion the proper and planned
growth of civilization in general, in the olden days
human beings had been wandering from place to place
in search of livelihood but the modernization have put
an end to all such adventures.
5. Town Planning
• Knowledge, have developed lot of conveniences
for their proper living.
• Human beings no longer have to roam around
for proper shelter but live in better planned and
construction of such houses, same basic rules
and regulations which may be termed as
„building Bye-laws are absolutely necessary.
7. Town Planning
• Building Bye-Laws are tools used to regulate coverage,
height, building bulk, and architectural design and
construction aspects of buildings so as to achieve orderly
development of an area. They are mandatory in nature
and serve to protect buildings against fire, earthquake,
noise, structural failures and other hazards.
• In India, there are still many small and medium sized
towns which do not have building bye-laws and in the
absence of any regulatory mechanism, such towns are
confronted with excessive coverage, encroachment and
haphazard development resulting in chaotic conditions,
inconvenience for the users, and disregard for building
aesthetics, etc
9. Importance Of Building
By Bye -Laws
• Building by laws are made to ensure orderly development of
localities in urban areas so that every houses is assured of
good ventilation and no building affects the lighting and
ventilation of neighbors.
• There has to be laws or regulations binding on the
prospective builders, if not, the building constructed will be:
• 1.Un- Scientific
• 2. Un-healthy
• Inconvenient for the people to occupy.
• The buildings should not be constructed merely with profit
motive without paying any attention to the health and
comfort of the in - habitants.
10. Importance of Building
By Bye -Laws
• The buildings must get sufficient sunshine, air and ventilation.
• Open spaces should be well planned.
• The buildings should create better environment.
• The buildings should be located in healthy surroundings and
should have an aesthetic appearance.
• But to achieve all this, there has to be a suitable regulations or
what are know as model building bye laws, enforced strictly by
the authorities, and followed by the builders honestly and
truthfully.
12. Importance of Building
By Bye -Laws
• These buildings Bye Laws Are Drawn Up By A Panel
Experts In Various Branches Of The Building Industry
Such As:
• Town Planning
• Architecture
• Civil Engineering
• Electrical Engineering
• Air – Conditioning
• Fire- fighting and administration etc.
• Theses building bye -
• laws when formulated are enforced on all buildings whether
constructed by government, local bodies, private persons or
agencies
14. General Principles Of Building By B- Laws
• The building bye - laws are generally based on
the following principles
• The building bye - laws should be reasonably
rigid and adequately flexible as they have to be
sometimes revised according the improvements
affected in science and engineering and as per
peculiar circumstances existing at the time.
15. General Principles Of Building By B- Laws
• These laws should be advantageously used for
the common good of the people.
• Minimum standards should be properly laid
down and they should be strictly made to be
adhered to by all concerned.
• Minimum floor space and cubic space per
member should be insisted upon.
16. General Principles Of Building By B- Laws
• The size of any room should not be less than a
specified minimum.
• Taking into consideration the number of
inmates in the building the minimum window
space and sanitary conveniences should be
insisted upon.
• At least one window of the specified size/area
should be provided in each room to open
either on a street or open yard.
17. General Principles Of Building By B- Laws
• The room should receive direct light and air
from exterior open space on at least two
sides to satisfy ideal conditions of air
circulation.
• There should be some healthy relations
between the cubic contents of the room
building and open spaces around.
• The width and extent of the open space
depends upon the height of the structure.
18. General Principles Of Building By
B- Laws
• The height of the building is fixed as per the
zone in which it is built.
• The width of the street should never be
exceeded by the height of the building there.
• The openings admitting light and air should
bear a prescribed ratio to the floor space.
• The set backs should be correctly followed
19. D.C.Rules
• The present development control regulations
have come into force from 25 th march 1991.
The regulations are framed to regulate the
development /redevelopment in the
Maharashtra region.
21. Applicability of Regulations
• These regulations shall apply to all
development, redevelopment, erection and/or
re-erection of a building, change of user etc. as
well as to the design, construction or
reconstruction of, and additions and alteration
to a building.
22. Applicability of Regulations
• These regulations shall also apply to any revision of
the development permissions/building permissions
granted earlier under any Development Control
Regulations .
Part Construction
• Where the whole or part of a building is demolished
or altered or reconstructed, removed, except where
otherwise specifically stipulated, these Regulations
apply only to the extent of the work involved
24. Applicability of Regulations
Change of Occupancy / User:
• Where the occupancy or the user of a building
is changed, except where otherwise specifically
stipulated, these Regulations shall apply to all
parts of the building affected by the change.
25. Applicability of Regulations
Reconstruction : -
• The reconstruction in whole or part of a building
which has ceased to exist due to an accidental fire,
natural collapse or demolition, having been
declared unsafe, or which is likely to be
demolished by or under an order of the Municipal
Council or Nagar Panchayat and for which the
necessary certificate has been given by the said
Municipal Council or Nagar Panchayat shall be
allowed subject to the provisions in these
Regulations
27. Applicability Of Regulations
Conflicts In Provisions -
• If there is any overlapping of provisions or any
conflicts between the existing provisions and the
provisions in the Development Control & Promotion
Regulations for Municipal Councils and Nagar-
panchayats in Maharashtra, then matter shall be
referred to the Director of Town Planning,
Maharashtra State, Pune whose decision shall be final.
28. Applicability Of Regulations
Applicability of CRZ Regulations -
• Any development within CRZ areas shall be
governed by the Coastal Regulation Zone
Notification No.S.O.19(E), dated 6.1.2011 as
amended from time to time, wherever applicable.
Applicability of Heritage Regulations -
• The heritage regulations, establishment of Heritage
Conservation Committee and the list of Heritage
Sites shall be applicable as previously sanctioned
by the Government/concerned Competent
Authority.
31. The Set Backs Should Be Correctly
Followed
• The minimum distance between individual
buildings should be rigidly controlled.
• Necessary water supply and sanitary
connections should be made to every unit.
• There should be uniformity as regards drainage
connections, water supply, gas and electricity.
• The buildings should have adequate fire-
fighting arrangements if over 69 ft. in height
32. The Set Backs Should Be Correctly
Followed
• In fact, it is essential that there should be
control over the user of the buildings and
control over the materials and construction of
the building
33. The Set Backs Should Be Correctly
Followed
• Floor Area Ratio As a formula: Floor Area Ratio =
(Total covered area on all floors of all buildings on a
certain plot) / (Area of the plot) The Floor Area Ratio
(FAR) or Floor Space Index (FSI) is the Ratio of the
total floor area of buildings on a certain location to the
size of the land of that location, or the limit imposed on
such a ratio.
• The Floor Area Ratio is the total building square footage
(building area) divided by the site size square footage
(site area).
• Thus, an FSI of 2.0 would indicate that the total floor
area of a building is two times the gross area of the plot
on which it is constructed, as would be found in a
multiple - story building
36. Floor Area Ratio
• “Floor Area Ratio (FAR)”- The quotient of the
ratio of the combined covered area (plinth area)
of all floors, excepting areas specifically
exempted under these regulations, to the total
area of plot, viz.: -
• Floor Area Ratio (FAR) = Tota1 Covered Area on All Floors x 100
Plot Area
38. Floor Area Ratio
• Thus, FSI or is the upper limit to the built space
you may construct on a given plot. It is the
ratio of allowed built-up area to the plot area.
• For example, on a 10,000 ft2 plot which has an FSI
of 2, you may construct a maximum of 20,000 ft2
of area, and no more.
• FSI can also be called FAR or
.Certain types of spaces, such as basements,
parking areas, and utility rooms, are, which means
that they do not need to be counted in the FSI
calculations.
40. Floor Area Ratio
• The following are not counted in FSI
calculations:
• Basements
• Stilt Parking
• Staircases
• Lifts and lift lobby (lobby area to an extent
equal to lift area, additional lobby areas are
counted)
41. Floor Area Ratio
• Pump rooms, utility areas, security cabins
• Shafts
• Society Office up to 12 m2 if there are less than 20
apartments, and 20 m2 if more
• Gymnasium up-to 2% of FSI area
• One Servants ‟toilet per floor up to 2.2 m2 with
access from lift lobby Refuge Areas and terraces
Normally, 15% of the plot must be reserved as a
recreation area. If the plot area is greater than
2,500m2, then this 15% is also subtracted from the
total FSI of the plot.
42. Fungible FSI
• The word Fungible from the Latin root
describes something that acts as a replacement
for something else. The municipal corporation
of Mumbai introduced this system to curb
misuse of existing building regulations by
developers.
43. Fungible FSI
• Developers would build space over and above
the allowable FSI by the means of some grey
areas in the building regulations. These grey
areas centered a round things that were free of
FSI, or not counted in FSI calculations, such as
flower beds, services shafts, and balconies. In
the fungible FSI system, the allowable FSI on a
plot is increased by 35% , with a maximum cap
on the total construction area, with no
exemptions. This serves to reduce
'overbuilding' on plots by developers.
45. Fungible FSI
• The fungible FSI seeks to act as a replacement
for or a legalization of the misuse of
regulations, but with a clear mathematical limit
that should not be exceeded. As of late 2013,
fungible FSI is applicable to all plots in Mumbai
with the exception of those that fall under
Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) limits.
46. Fungible FSI
• The Maharashtra Government, in an attempt to provide
balanced playing field to Developers and reduce
arbitrary decision-making, has amended the
Development Control Regulations (DCRs) for the State
Capital City, Mumbai.
• According to the new DCR Amendments, Balconies,
Flower Beds, Terraces, Voids and Niches would now be
counted in the Floor Space Index (FSI). To compensate
for the loss of free-of-FSI areas, Fungible FSI to the
extent of 35 per cent for Residential Development and
20 per cent for Industrial and Commercial
Developments has been allowed with premium.
47. Fungible FSI
• Fungible FSI would be available at 60 per cent
premium for Residential, 80 per cent for Industrial
and 100 per cent for Commercial at the Ready
Recknor Rates (RR Rates) which are revised from this
January 1st, 2012 ranging between 5 per cent and 30
per cent in 716 zones of Mumbai. Fungible FSI can be
used for making Flower-Beds or Voids; else used for
constructing bigger habitable areas.
48. Fungible FSI
• However, to protect the interests of the existing owners
and occupiers so as to avoid the transfer of Fungible FSI
in respect of existing building to the free sale portion by
the Developers, it has also been further clarified that the
Fungible FSI in respect of rehab portion would not be
transferable to the free sale area of the Developer. No
premium for Fungible FSI would be charged for the
members whose flats were being redeveloped though the
space restrictions would be the same.
• The parking would be available as per the provisions of
the DCR, but 25 per cent more at the option of the
Developer. This would be without premium and without
being counted in the FSI.
49. TDR
• Transferable Development Rights are a
mechanism to reduce new construction in
crowded areas and shift it to less dense parts of
the city.
52. TDR
• In Mumbai, TDR was initiated to prevent new
construction in south Mumbai and shift it northwards. It
works as follows: say you own a 10,000 ft2 plot with an
FSI of 1.3 in South Mumbai, on which you have an
existing building with 8,000 ft2 of built-up area. To utilize
your full FSI allowance, you would have to build 10,000
x 1.3 = 13,000 ft2 of space. This means you have 5,000
ft2 of extra capacity in your plot which you are not using.
With TDR you can then sell this right to build 5,000 ft2
to someone north of you . You then cannot build more
than the existing 8,000 ft2 on your plot.
54. TDR
• FSI in Mumbai city is 1.33 & FSI in the suburbs
is 1.0.
• 2. in suburbs TDR potential is permissible with
total cap of 2.0.
55. Norms For FSI Utilization For Different Kind Of
Buildings
• Residential Use Zone The residential areas are
developed either as
(a) Plotted development or
(b) Group housing/flatted development.
• Density pattern i.e. (high density, high medium
density, low medium density or low density) are
followed for working out the pattern of development
with respect to the size of the plot, number of dwelling
units on each plot, setbacks, FAR and the number of
storeys/height of the building.
56. Norms For FSI Utilization For Different
Kind Of Buildings
57. Norms For FSI Utilization For Different Kind Of
Buildings
Buildings within the Residential Use Zone
• Buildings for various uses/activities within the
residential use zone forming part of the residential
layout plan are to be constructed with the norms of the
coverage, FAR, height and others as applicable to that
size of a residential plot.
58. Norms For FSI Utilization For Different
Kind Of Buildings
59. Norms For FSI Utilization For Different Kind Of
Buildings
• Plotted Development The layout plans for residential
scheme are formulated keeping in view
• That there would be sufficient light and air in the
buildings when constructed
• That there would be protection against noise, dust and
local hazards
• That there would be sufficient open space for various
family needs
60. Norms For FSI Utilization For Different Kind Of
Buildings
• That the circulation and access is easy and is safe from
accident point of view
• That, as far as possible, the plots are of regular shape
and size and
• These are logically arranged in a systematic manner
so as to give a regular pattern of development in the
form of row houses, detached and semi-detached
houses and if necessary the regular bungalow type
plots.
61. Norms For FSI Utilization For Different Kind Of
Buildings
Residential Premises –
• Following table is suggested for different size of the
plots applicable, ground coverage, FAR, height and
number of dwelling units for a residential area:
62. Group Housing
• The number of dwelling units are calculated on the basis of the
density pattern given in the development plan, taking into
consideration a population of 4.5 persons per dwelling unit.
• Minimum size of the plot 2250 sq m.
• In hill towns 5000 sq m.
• Maximum ground coverage 35%
• Maximum FAR 125 (higher FAR may be given depending on
the pattern of development and should not exceed 150)

86. FSI Norms For Redevelopment Across
Mumbai
• In Mumbai, the permitted FSI varies in various
locations depending upon the land and type of
existing residence whether a Slum, Tenanted,
MHADA, Cluster or a Co-operative Society
and also the projects to be redeveloped.
87. FSI Norms For Redevelopment Across
Mumbai
• As per Development Control Rules 33(7) of Mumbai, in
the case of Cess Building, every tenant who is having less
than 300 sq ft carpet area shall be given minimum of 300
sq ft ownership flat and the tenants having 300 to 753 sq.
ft area, the existing area. Any area above 753 sq. feet will
not be granted to the tenants.
• Of course, the maximum ceiling was 2.5 Floor Space
Index (FSI) under this category of buildings. Many of the
old buildings in areas were not becoming viable under
the above rules and therefore, the government took a
decision to increase the same to 3 FSI.
89. FSI Norms For Redevelopment Across
Mumbai
• In case of redevelopment of plots under the above
category, the builder gets incentive FSI of 50% or
60% of FSI over and above the FSI consumed to
re-house the existing tenants.
• In such cases FSI goes beyond 6 or 7. There is no
limit. For MHADA layout, the FSI is 2.5.
• In case of projects approved by MMRDA in
Mumbai Metropolitan Region other than Mumbai
under Rental Housing Scheme, the FSI allowed is

91. Reforms in D.C rules by U.D department of state
government and municipal authorities.
• In India, the combined effect of multiple layers
of poorly conceived central, state and municipal
regulations contribute to an artificial urban land
shortage. As a result urban land prices are
abnormally high in relation to India‟s
household income, and households consume
less floor space than they could afford if the
regulatory environment were reformed.
92. Reforms in D.C rules by U.D department of state
government and municipal authorities.
• In addition, some regulations have a negative impact
on the spatial structure of cities. By unreasonably
reducing the amount of floor space that can be built in
centrally located areas, and by making land recycling
difficult, some regulations tend to “push” urban
development toward the periphery.
• By making urban development financially unfeasible
in areas where there is high demand for commercial or
residential space, some regulations encourage
corruption.
93. Regulations should be regularly audited and
submitted to a cost benefits analysis
• In reviewing or auditing land regulations it is
convenient to divide them according to their impact on
markets.
• Some regulations contribute to a decrease in land
supply, other artificially increase land consumption
and therefore demand for land.
• The double effect of restricting supply and mandating
high land consumption has an evident impact on price.
94. Reforms in D.C rules by U.D department of state
government and municipal authorities.
• Government regulations or practices contributing
to a decrease in land supply:
• Urban Land ceiling act
• The major effect of the urban land ceiling act has
been to freeze large areas of land in legal disputes.
These areas are not available for development or
redevelopment. An additional negative impact of
the act was to prevent private developers to
assemble land for subsequent development. The
act gave a de facto monopoly on land development
to government developers.

Rent control
• The effect of rent control on the supply of new
rental stock is obvious and well documented.
However rent control laws have also an effect
on land supply and city shape. Rent control
contributes to a decrease in land supply because
buildings which are under rent control cannot
be redeveloped or even renovated.

Regulations preventing or slowing down the
conversion of land from one use to another.
• Any change of use, even when approved by
Master plans, requires lengthy approval to
become effective. This is particularly serious at
the periphery of cities where land has to be
converted from agricultural to urban use.

Master Plans Ignoring real estate demand
• Master plans allocate land between various uses
and limit the amount of floor space which can be
built on specific parcels, either directly through
maximum FSI or indirectly through set backs, plot
coverage ratio, and maximum number of floors.
While these types of control are not objectionable
per se, the parameter used are often arbitrary and
have been set without taking into account the
efficiency of city structure or the affordability of
different social groups.

High Stamp Duty
• High stamp duties discourage land transactions, and as
a consequence reduce the supply of land on the
market. High stamp duty incites to grossly under-
declare the real value of land. This in turn adversely
affects the possibility of using land as collateral for
construction financing.
103. Reforms in D.C rules by U.D department of state
government and municipal authorities
Large Institutional land holdings
• Government entities or parastatals such as
Railways often own large tracts of land in cities.
Because this land cannot be sold on the market
to the benefit of the owning institution, it is
often underused, or used in a way incompatible
with its real market value.

government and municipal authorities
105. Reforms in D.C rules by U.D department of state

Very low Property Taxes
• Very low property taxes and property taxes
based on actual rents rather than on land values
create an incentive to hold vacant or underused
land, thus decreasing the amount of land on the
market.
106. Reforms in D.C rules by U.D department of state
government and municipal authorities
Very Low Property Taxes
• The failure to provide primary infrastructure with a
capacity consistent with demand is often cited as a
justification for constraining development intensity, in
particular low FSI. It is important to realize that an
adjustment of land use regulation to actual market
demand will also require the provision of primary
infrastructure of sufficient capacity.
107. Expected Impact Of Land Regulatory
Reforms
• The careful review and reforms of the
regulations mentioned above would result in a
lower cost for urban development and for
housing. An additional benefit will be a more
efficient spatial organization for cities.
109. Expected Impact Of Land Regulatory
Reforms
• More compact cities, more efficient land use. No
enclaves of under use or unused land; more efficient
use of existing primary infrastructure.
• Increase share of the housing stock supplied by
unsubsidized formal private sector developers,
decrease in illegal subdivisions and slum areas.
• Generally lower land prices but higher prices in some
prime commercial and business areas.
110. Expected Impact Of Land Regulatory
Reforms
• Decrease in trip length due to more compact cites
and because of more intense use of land in the
CBD (Central business district) (less dispersion of
employment). A more intensely used CBD allows
a better efficiency of transit and therefore should
increase urban air quality in the long run.
• Increase in the consumption of floor space per
person for both residential and business use. This
should result in an increase of welfare for
households and an increase in productivity for
firms.
112. Expected Impact Of Land Regulatory
Reforms
• Average urban population densities are likely to stay
constant as more efficient land use and higher FSI are
likely to be balanced by a higher floor consumption.
113. Expected Impact Of Land Regulatory Reforms
• Finally, by reducing the difference between what is
allowed and what is financially feasible, land use
reform should reduce significantly the opportunity for
corruption
