Hosadurga CDP FR (Jan 10).docEXECUTIVE SUMMARY1. The Hosadurga City Development Plan (CDP) leads to sustainable infrastructuredevelopment with vision and goals. Citizens, organized groups of stakeholders, and localand state officials were consulted during the preparation of the City Development Plan andInfrastructure development and Implementation plan for Hosadurga . The vision forHosadurga CDP planned for 2033. Hosadurga CDP is based JNnurm/UIDSSMTguidelines and anchored on JNnurm goal of creating economically productive, efficient,equitable and responsive cities.A. Background2. Karnataka is one of the more urbanized states in India, having 33.8 percent of itspopulation living in urban areas, in contrast with 27.8 percent for the country as a whole.Karnataka’s share to India’s urban population is 6.28 percent. ID&IP Project is thusinitiated by Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance Corporation (KUIDFC)for urban infrastructure development in the remaining 146 ULBs which are on the verge ofurbanization but have very low level of infrastructure services to accommodate the futuregrowth and development. The 146 ULBs are spread over entire Karnataka and are dividedinto a total of eight packages for preparation of feasibility study. KUIDFC has awardedwork of Package IV and VIII to M/S Wilbur Smith Associates Private Limited (WSAPL)comprising a total of 37 ULBs in the districts of Tumkur, Davangere, Chitradurga, Haveri,Gulbarga, Bidar and Bijapur.B. Environmental Infrastructure3. Considering the town’s growth and the need for efficient basic service delivery, the CDPidentifies long-term development issues in environmental infrastructure focusing on watersupply, sewerage and sanitation, solid waste management and storm water drainage. Withan ultimate goal of providing safe drinking water supply and safe sanitation, the CDP aimsat gradually expanding citizens’ access to services in the aforementioned three phaseswithin the framework of associated institutional and financial challenges.1. Water Supply4. Hosadurga TMC is responsible agency to provide safe drinking water to the people of thetown. Key features of Hosadurga‘s water supply system comprise: (i) gross water supplyof 67 lpcd; (ii) WSCs as percentage of Households 42 %; (iii) Supply duration less than 2hours once in four day; (iv) Roads covered by distribution network 80 %; (v) Total storagecapacity towards present supply of water 58 %.a

The City Development Plan proposes to develop Hosadurga’s water supply system basedon the following sub-project identification criteria: (i) Augmentation of water supply; (ii)New distribution network and old rehabilitation (iii) Water service connections (WSC);(iii) Metering of the system. The total cost of additional improvements in water supplysystem in the CDP period is estimated Rs. 467.15 lakhs for Hosadurga TMC.2. Sewerage and Sanitation6. Execution of a modern underground drainage/sewerage (UGD) system is currentlyunderway in Hosadurga TMC.

The CDP recognizes the fact that property taxespay for capital investments and user charges pay for system operation and maintenance –given the aforesaid approach, the financial sustainability analysis focuses on reviewing netcash flows arising out of taxation and tariff reforms.18. The Financial and Operating Plan (FOP) lays out the planned fiscal status of HosadurgaTMC over the CDP period, taking cognizance of Multi-year Investment Plans for eachsub-project, sources and disposition of sub-project funds, and performance of HosadurgaTMC Revenue Account. The FOP will be reviewed annually to determine the extent towhich targets are met and undertake corrections / revisions accordingly. The FOP alsohelps in assessing the requirement of funds over the short-term and identifying sourceswith potential for revenue enhancement. The main objective of the FOP is to enableHosadurga TMC determine their own priority objectives in terms of goals, resources,service and management aspects in the medium-term.(i)Business as usual. In this scenario, the finances of Hosadurga TMC are forecast in a“do nothing” or “without CDP” scenario. The revenue surplus thus generatedindicates Hosadurga capacity to service capital expenditure.(ii)Improved Scenario. The improvement scenario is based on investments identifiedunder the CDP and requirement for upgrading the town’s infrastructure is estimatedand phased based on construction activity. Implications of this investment in termsof external borrowings required, resultant debt service commitment, and additionaloperation and maintenance expenditure are worked out to ascertain sub-project cashflows. Revenue surpluses from the Business as usual Scenario are applied to subprojectcash flows emerging from implementable investments – the municipal fundnet surpluses indicates Hosadurga’s ability to sustain full investments. FY 2023 isassumed as the reference year to determine the net surpluses and whether HosadurgaTMC maintain a debt/revenue surplus ratio as an indication of the Hosadurga ’sability to sustain investments.(iii)Most Optimistic Scenario. This scenario is same as improved scenario and Furtherimprovement in efficiency and tariff rationalization so that along with O&M costrecovery, some percentage of capital cost is also recovered.19. Sustainable investment for the period 2008-23 is Rs.11,75 Crores in the improvedscenario. CDP sustainability is based on three critical factors: (i) Hosadurga TMC shouldundertake assumptions proposed in the FOP; and (ii) Hosadurga TMC should undertakegovernance reforms by way of Urban Governance, Capacity Building and InstitutionalStrengthening.3. Cost Estimates and Financing Plan20. The total cost of the City Development Plan is estimated at Rs.97.77 Crores includingduties, taxes, contingencies (physical and price) and financing charges (front-end fees andcommitment charges). Base cost of sub-project components were determined based one

Physical and price contingency is applicable on works (infrastructureinvestment), price contingency is applicable on goods (institutional development /computerization), and service taxes are applicable on services (institutional development /training and accounting, and project assistance/consulting services).D. Way Forward: Key Initiatives21. Based on the consultative process held during CDP development the following keyinitiatives and focus areas will form Hosadurga ’s Vision 2023: (i) planned developmentof Growth Management and improving the safe transport facilities within the town; (ii)focusing on safe drinking water supply; ensuring safe sanitary disposal and developingUnderground Drainage System, developing a Storm Water Master Plan, introducing doorto-doormunicipal waste collection, and safe sanitary landfill; (iii) ensuring communityparticipation in infrastructure development and service delivery and enhancing livelihoodoptions for urban poor; (iv) developing the art, culture and heritage of the city, andfocusing on improving the fire and emergency services facility; (v) Hosadurga TMC staffcapacity building in project implementation; (vi) tapping potentials of own tax sources forinstitutional options in service delivery (property tax reforms) properties coverage andimproved tax collection, user charges to address in the main report, specifically focusingon recovering O&M expenditure, and annual increase/indexation in user charges (throughCDP period) and five-year revision of property tax.f
