4.5 ORGANIZATION MANAGEMENT<br />
As may be seen from various sections of the report particularly relating to service deliveries, there<br />
are gaps of various sizes which result in a shortage in the delivery system. This could be over come<br />
by certain specific options:<br />
In most of the service sections of the <strong>Municipal</strong>ity, there are only a few vacancies which could be<br />
filled up. A totally satisfactory system delivery of the services would require an efficient personnel<br />
management system.<br />
• The organization and delivery mechanism in some of the important personnel intensive<br />
service sectors have to be modernized. To mention the important few relate to solid waste<br />
management, where large number of workers and staff are involved, could be privatized.<br />
Scientific solid waste management need to be assigned to NGOs, voluntary organizations or<br />
even the respective resident associations in the various colonies. This is a remunerative<br />
venture as is proved in many places.<br />
• Privatizing the repair and maintenance of water supply, collection of taxes and fees and<br />
maintenance of public assets particularly sanitary and public health units is a well known<br />
option. This also could be taken up as joint venture between urban local body and private<br />
sector.<br />
