Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 5 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

Planning is a part of Punjab’s local government system with the planning responsibilities of TMAs, set out in PLGO. Under the devolved system, the newly created office of TO(P) has the following functions ; (i) develop plans; (ii) develop and apply building controls; (iii) manage CCBs; (iv) implement commercialization rules; (v) operate Punjab Housing Development Schemes; (vi) develop site development schemes. In addition, The PLGO identifies the preparation of spatial plans (Article 54 a), development plans (Article 54 c) and budget plans, long term and annual municipal development programs (Article 54 j) as key functions of the TMAs. Unfortunately, in majority of TMAs TO (P) office has not been able to perform as envisioned in the PLGO. Some of the reasons are inadequate staff and lack of up-to-date maps, equipment, management/ regulation/ and enforcement mechanisms. As a result, development works are taking place in a piecemeal manner and lack integrated and coordinated approach.

1.2 Punjab Municipal Service Improvement Project (PIMSIP)

Under these circumstances the Government of Punjab launched Punjab Municipal Service Improvement Project (PIMSIP) through Punjab Municipal Development Fund Company (PMDFC) .The project aims at the institutional development of TMAs through improving systems directly related to their functions and through investments in service delivery.

1.2.1 Key Features of PMSIP

The project has two distinct components; Municipal Infrastructure Development and Institutional Development (ID):

Municipal Infrastructure development: The project funds the infrastructure schemes after the identification of most pressing development issues of the respective town. Institutional Development: To improve the service delivery , a number of interventions are suggested in the projects like providing maps prepared with GIS, Performance Management System, Financial Management System, Action Planning and various trainings to TMA staff.

1.3 PMSIP Planning

Under PMSIP planning rapid appraisal of municipal services is undertaken to identify service delivery gaps, analyzed needs and guide the means to overcome such gaps. In addition, stakeholder consultation provides the much needed guidance to the planning exercise. Outcome of this exercise is a municipal service data base, improved mapping and a list of development projects that may be funded by PMSIP.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 6 1.3.1 Limitations of PMSIP Planning

As every project addresses specific issues, PMSIP has been launched with some limitations as follows:  The PMSIP development grants fund for municipal services only.  PMSIP planning exercise is undertaken at CO Units starting from CO Unit HQ, i.e urban area.  The prioritized list that is developed is restricted to the UCs falling in CO Units. Nonetheless it is assumed that experience gained in the urban areas would be replicated in the entire TMA.

1.4 The Planning Process

The Planning process adopted incorporates an overall Strategy for high lighting the development options and the community’s agreed outputs. These out put form the basis of spatial plan. It is a more inclusive approach aiming to ensure best use of land by weighing up competing demands.

The plan devised is an ongoing process for the sustainable development. To achieve such development a Spatial plan has been developed. It addresses municipal development issues and infrastructure needs in a systematic way. The plan therefore emphasizes on engagement with the stakeholders and other organizations, the management and ongoing funding programs. This led to identify the community’s preferences for development process.

After the identification of the preferred options, a detailed Action plan for each priority sector was developed. Action plans complement the strategy and Spatial plan by setting out short to medium term actions to achieve the desired objectives. The Planning process thus culminates in producing a concise development plan for the town.

Following steps were adopted for the planning process:

1.4.1. Secondary Data Collection

First, the sources were identified for the previous attempts that were made in Ahmedpur Sial for planning. It includes , DCR, on line data and PHED services maps. The study of such documents helped to gather background information about the town, infrastructure coverage and growth. It helped to have an understanding about the development patterns evolved over a period of years.

The maps from Public health reflected the water supply and sewerage laid out previously. It was also gathered that the whether the projects have completed their designed life. These plans were again used at the analysis stage and compared with the existing data collected later on.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 7 1.4.2. Mapping

The first requirement before going to the field was to prepare a base map for the town. For this purpose, the mapping exercise was started in parallel to the secondary data collection. The image was procured for the TMA. It was then processed and a vectorized layer was made. The land marks were put on the base map using the secondary sources i.e maps obtained from PHED. The land marks included the important roads, water features, big buildings, factories, graveyards etc.

A rigorous brain storming session was conducted in which many apprehensions about the forms were removed. The data collection forms were reviewed and planning team made clarifications to TMA officials about these forms. At this stage the data collection forms were finalized.

1.4.3 Field Data Collection

Preliminary meetings

Once the data collection forms were finalized the planning team was to initiate the data collection process in the field. First, a meeting was held with the TMA leader ship (Nazim) to discuss the field data collection work plan. At this stage a planning steering committee comprising of TOs, and a working group constituting ATOs and other lower order officials was notified. The duties were assigned and a briefing was given to these officials about their role in data collection. The planning team discussed the general development issues of the town with the Nazim and notes were recorded.

Infrastructure Data Collection

For infrastructure data collection, the planning team worked very closely with the working group. First the existing service maps available with the TMA were used as a starting point. To update the map the secondary source like information from Public health maps was added. This information was verified by the working group to prepare an updated map for the services.

This missing or additional information was provided by second line officials. For instance, for water supply, plumbers and sub engineers provided first hand information about the system. Where necessary, field visits were made to validate the information.

Urban Planning

A Landuse survey was conducted to update the TMA map. The residential areas, commercial, institutional and open spaces and industrial areas were marked on the base map. The team comprised for the survey was TO (P), urban planner from PMDFC and draftsman from TMA.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 8 The Planning office guided about the growth directions of the town and a rudimentary survey was made in this regard. It was observed where the new residences were built and institutions were being developed. These factors determine the future expansion of the town.

In addition to it, the land ownership and land values information was recorded.

1.4.4 Data Analysis

Once the planning team collected the data, all of the forms were arranged in the office. The data was cleaned and integrated. The PMDFC officials contacted the TMA office again if any gaps were found in the collected data. Such additional information was gathered for each sector. Based on the information collected in the field, descriptive maps for all the municipal sectors like water supply, sewerage, solid waste and land use were developed. The analysis report was produced by the planning team by using these maps. This report was again sent to the engineers for further updation and review and hence a final draft was made.

1.4.5 The Visioning Workshop

The planning process stems from the Nazim and other stakeholderss vision of the town which is further translated into the tangible and concrete targets. The salient feature of this step is the visioning and prioritization workshop. Participants of the workshop were the Nazim and Naib Nazim, senior TMA officials, including the TMO, all the TOs and staff members , councilors, local representatives of provincial departments, representatives of NGOs operating in the town, representatives of civic groups such as the trade bodies. A comprehensive presentation was given to all of the stakeholders about the fabric of the municipal infrastructure in the town. They all shared their views about the future development options and investment decisions of their town. Once the vision was agreed upon and the objectives were established, a rigorous session was organized for the selection of the priority sectors.

At the end of the workshop the statement of agreed vision, objectives and priorities was summarized in written draft and circulated among all the stake holders.

1.4.6 Interim Appraisal by World Bank

Two day Consultative Workshop was held as a schedule arrangement during World Bank Implementation Support Mission. The World Bank mission was to make interim appraisal of the PMSIP activities undertaken inYear-1 TMAs. In addition, it provided a forum for Tehsil Officers Planning (TOPs) , the World Bank and PMDFC to share common approach to improve capacity building efforts for the planning office of the partner TMAs.

1.4.7 One Day Planning Refresher Workshop for Year I TMAs

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 9 A refresher workshop was conducted to develop a close liaison between PMDFC and TMAs. TO(P)s from partner TMAs attended the workshop. Presentations were designed to give a snapshot of the planning exercise. The main objectives of the workshop were;

 To review the existing planning process  To initiate the process of up-dation of the planning reports and maps  To share the maps and reports prepared by PMDFC with partner TMAs

In addition to it, information was also collected regarding the interventions, their viability and suggested improvements.

Recommended Actions and Next Steps

 There would be a planning workshop for Year-1 partner TMAs.  Year-1 TMA would again be provided with municipal data and maps.  Mechanism of updation of such municipal data and maps would be formulated by PMDFC.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 13 CHAPTER 3 URBAN PLANNING

Urban planning under TMA has a crucial role in guiding the present and future growth of the town. The Planning officeis responsible to produce spatial plans and exercise development control for change of land uses in the town. Further it maintains a comprehensive data base and information system on TMA and is responsible to execute and manage development plans for infrastructure projects. For the entire development of the Tehsil it is mandatory to produce different maps like base map, land use map, zoning map, etc. The planning office is responsible to prepare Annual development plans and long term plans. These plans are made under the direction of Tehsil Nazim

3.1 Situation Analysis - Planning Section

TMA Ahmedpur Sial was no different than other TMAs of Punjab in terms of lacking institutional and individual capacity required to meet post devolution challenges. Initial field appraisal carried out by PMDFC revealed that:

The table below shows that the most important posts of the planning office are lying vacant i.e the TO(P) and the sub engineer. The planning office in Ahmad pur sial is unable to perform its activities. It has to face many problems like when CCBs are submitted, the planning office has to rely on TO (I&S) office the judgment of estimates.

The other problem with which the planning office is confronted with is the commercialization policy. This policy was an adaptation of Housing department. The planning standards are to be followed in accordance with that policy. This creates problems with plots that are very small in size. The other problem is the commercialization fee which is 20% of the market value of the land. This is too high for people of small town to pay.

There is no ODP or Master plan existing with the TMA. This gives way to sporadic development of incompatible land uses through out the town.

3.2 Mapping by PMDFC

In the first phase of planning exercise in Ahmadpur Sial, a number of maps were prepared and handed over to the TO (P) office. In the next phase, these maps were further improved by updating information. For this purpose, the maps were handed over to the TMAs and they marked recent changes on these maps and sent back to PMDFC. The maps were again developed in the light of these changes. It included land use, growth direction, water supply, sewerage, solid waste management, roads and street light maps.

These maps are prepared with the help of GIS. The soft copies will be handed over so that they could develop their own maps. These maps could be prepared in AutoCAD.

3.3 Building control

For building control activities residents submit requests with a plan and other requisite documents. Building inspector visits the site and checks if the plan is according to the site/ location. Building by-laws have been developed but not notified. There is a requirement that residents after completion of their buildings get a completion certificate from planning office, TMA, but it rarely occurs. All the records are manually maintained.

Detail of Plans Sr.# Year Domestic Domestic Commercial Commercial Total Plans Plans Plans Plans Revenue Submitted Approved Submitted Approved (Rs)

1 2006-07 29 04 29 05 2,28,428 2. 2007-08 12 03 29 06 1,68,945 3. 2008-09 09 02 31 06 6,11,894

The above table shows that in years 2006-07 a very small percentage of residential plans were approved. This percentage was remains more or less same for the next two years. The approval for commercial plans was also very low. Hence the above table shows that the approval process needs lot of improvement.

3.4 Existing Land use Characteristics

3.4.1 Residential

The eastern part is the oldest settlement where irregular street pattern with congested residential and commercial activities are found.

The entire city is located along the main Ahmadpur sial road that runs east direction. It dissects the Minor R .3L in the centre of the town. Most of the newly developed houses

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 15 are located along it. However, ribbon development has taken on the either sides of this road.

3.4.2 Commercial

The hub of commercial activities is the Meo Chowk and Kushdil chowk. The area around this chowk is surrounded by congested residential use with commercial activity along the main road.

Boy’s high school is adjacent to the Kushdil chowk. Other public buildings like TMA office, Tehsil complex, Rural Health centre are also found in this part of the town.

3.4.4 Parks

There are no parks in the town.

3.4.5 Grave Yards

There are two large graveyards one in the centre of the town along Ahmad Pur Sial road, while the other is towards the western part along the minor.

There are two planned housing schemes in the western part. The one is Kashmir colony and the other is 4 marla housing colony.

3.5 Katchi Abadies

There is only one katchi abadi in the town, i.e. Mohallah Hussain abad. The number of units is 48. This is an approved katchi abadi.

3.6 Population Density

The area along Meo chowk and the Khushdil chowk are the densest part of the town. The street pattern is irregular and area has developed overtime in a haphazard fashion. Area to the north where Basti Shamsabad is present has relatively less density. There are some vacant plots within the built up area. The area with least density is the west of the town. Here new residences are being developed. But no such private housing scheme has emerged until now.

3.7 Growth Directions

The city is growing in two distinct directions, north and west. The south and east directions are the flooded zone areas due to over flowing of the river Chenab.

In the north there is CBD developed near by pass. This CBD comprises of DDOR office, Education department, Health department, DSP Police office, etc.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 16

In the north west of the town is the Garh Morh. This is a very important morh as the roads that generate from here are110 feet wide and are directed towards other important cities in immediate vicinity of Ahmad pur sial. These cities are Layyah, Muzaffar Garh, Garh mahraja and Jhang. Due to its strategic location the growth of the town is expected to accelerate in this direction. To the west of town is the main highway leading towards Muzzaffar Garh. The area between this road and town is also expected to have future growth.

4.1.2 Traffic Congestion & Parking

The road system is congested, especially in the central town. The road congestion is shown in black dots in the Road Hierarchy Map. Main bazaar is mainly congested.

 Non-functional of bus stand  Signaling is not present  Haphazard parking, street hawkers and shops combine to obstruct traffic and underutilize right-of-way.  Lack of pedestrian facilities  Poor enforcement

There are no proper off-street parking lots in the town. This forces vehicle owners to park on the roads, streets and bazaars. As a result, disorganized and chaotic pattern of parking occurs and reduces road capacity.

4.1.3 Needs

 Proper functional Bus Stand with regulation to park buses only in specified parking areas.  Area designated for a parking lot  Area for vendor carts  Provision of foot paths in main roads in the town.  Street light staff should be equipped with ladders and other tools.

4.1.4 Street Lights

A comprehensive database of strret/mohallah wise street lights was developed by PMDFC under PMS. The data is attached in Annex A. Record of street lights has been kept nicely. Street light section needs an automatic lifter to carry out its function efficiently and safely. From the table below 32% of the street lights were not working in the month of July, 2009. There are 110 street lights in the town.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 24 4.2 Water Supply

Adequate quantity of potable ground water is available in the area. Ground water drawn through deep tube well is the present source of water supply. The depth of water table is 15-20 feet. Less than 10% of the total population is served with piped water supply.

4.2.1 Service Area

Service level and areas served are shown in Annex B. On an average 1.5 hours of water supply is being supplied to the households. This service is very low compared to other towns in Punjab. Detail of consumers as per different mohallas is also shown in the Annex B.

There are only 341 domestic and 3 commercial connections in the town. The rest of the population has made its own arrangements for potable water supply. Hand pumps are seen frequently within the houses as well as in the streets. Pumps/motors have also been installed privately to meet the water requirements. The availability of sweet /portable water in the aquifer discourages use of water from public sources; private arrangements are always preferred. There is increasing tendency among the consumers for disconnection of municipal water connections. Water charges for domestic consumers is Rs 30/month and for commercial it is Rs 60/month.

Timings for Water Supply

The water is supplied intermittently; two times, one in the morning and second in the afternoon. The supply timings are as under:

Morning 0700 to 0800 am Noon 1200 to 1300 pm Afternoon 1600 to 1700 pm

4.2.2 Drinking Water Sources

Tube Wells

Two number tube wells of 1.5 cusecs combined capacity have been installed to meet the requirements of the consumers.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 25 The efficiency of the said tube wells have been visualized to be far less than the designed / installed capacity. As per the observation, the yield of tube wells is noticed as under:

 Tube Well Nr.1,30 HP 1 cusec  Tube Well Nr.2,10 HP 0.5 cusec

The condition of the pumping machinery is not very satisfactory and in some cases it is in a very Tube Well Motor bad condition. The maintenance of the machinery seems improper.

4.2.3 Water Distribution Network

4.2.4 Water Storage

One overhead reservoir of capacity 20,000 gallons is located in the town but its use seems infrequent; seepage has been observed through is walls.

There is a second overhead reservoir located in the tehsil Headquarter Hospital which serves requirements of the hospital only.

4.2.5 Water Demand

Daily demand in the city taking 30 g/d/c as a standard is 870,450 gallon/day. Existing data from tube wells suggests that designed capacity of two tube wells is 67,500 gallons/day, as they are working for an average of only 2 hours per day. Assuming that they are working at 80 % their capacity – total water supplied can be assumed as 54,000 gallons/day. Comparing with the above demand the water produced is not fulfilling demand of the present population for average daily demand. But, as ground water is sweat there is not much demand on TMA water supply. Inspite of this, there are many areas that are not served by water supply in Ahmedpur Sial. Future growth areas would demand additional water. Therefore additional sourced would be needed in near future.

Chlorination

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 26 The system is not having any gas or hypo-chlorinators. However, in rainy season chlorination is done manually by adding bleaching powder solution into the over head reservoirs.

From the above table it seems that TMA has really picked up revenue collection.

4.2.6 NEEDS

Presently, water supply system is functioning in satisfactory way though supply hours are very low. Better operation & maintenance can improve the system further. As the town expands more water would be needed. Testing of shallow water pumped by most citizens needs rigorous testing to examine its fitness.

4.3 Sewerage System

Sewerage system was laid in late 70s and has passed its design life. The existing system is being maintained by TMA with strong determination. It only covers 30% of the town and its extension/improvement is the need of the hour. Particularly the people face great hard ships in monsoon times. Also waste water being pumped is used for broad irrigation without waste water treatment. For waster water treatment TMA has shown its strong willingness to purchase land and proposed two such places one near existing

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 27 disposal works and the other on eastern side of the town. The proposal seems justified and need based.

There is only one disposal point from where sewage is pumped into the seepage drain. Open surface drains (tertiary drains), mostly Type-I, Punjab standard type drains collect sludge /surface water from streets.

4.3.1 Coverage Area

Topography of Ahmedpur Sial town is flat. Slope of the town is towards side of the town. Trunk Sewerage coverage is 30 % of the town while 70% town is served with open drains. There are no lateral sewers in the town. Part of the town west of canal is not served with sewerage facility.

Underground Sewerage

Existing sewerage comprises open drains and underground sewerage. Almost the entire town is served by sewerage and open drains.

Evidently, the size of sewers varies from 9 inches diameter to 24 inches diameter. The pipe material is reinforced cement concrete.

The designed capacity of the sewerage under the sub project is 14.42 cusecs; the abstract is as under:

4.3.2 Problem Areas

The situation of open drains is on the average satisfactory. At locations, the size of drains is abnormal when compared with the right-of-way of the street, thereby inhibiting the required street function.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 28

At locations without any type of system, the waste water is either ponding in open spaces or remains stagnant in the streets.

The open dumping of solid wastes is further aggravating the sanitation situation.

The situation of only one disposal station for sewage is quite critical. The pumping machinery has been relocated at the surface due to seepage into the dry well and making the pumps-motors impossible in the dry well.

4.3.3 Needs

Sewerage network in the town is old and need improvement. New trunk sewers are needed. Under PMSIP, PMDFC and TMA has initiated a sewerage improvement project in Ahmedpur Sial, The sewerage project has recently been advertised for tendering. It has the following details:

4.4 Solid Waste Management

After sweeping the streets and roads the sanitary workers carry the solid waste in wheel barrows driven manually and collected at certain collection points. Due to shortage of equipment and manpower TMA Ahmedpur Sial is not capable to serve the entire area of the town. As such some areas have good service delivery level whereas other having lesser attention gets poor service.

The existing system comprises of the following:

 Collection; through wheel barrows  Transfer through tractor trolleys  Disposal in open fields / along the roads.

4.4.1 Collection System

After sweeping the streets and roads the sanitary workers carry the solid waste in wheel barrows driven manually and collect at certain collection points.

The existing system comprises of collection through hand and animal driven carts transfer through animal carts tractor trolley mounted and disposal in open fields or along the roads.

The Equipment Available

PDSSP has recently made a grant to TMA for the purchase of some equipment such as four (4) Holland Tractors, 400 small drums and 10 containers.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 33 Operation

The daily trip of various facilities is as under:

 Tractor Trolleys 4 trips  Donkey Carts 24 trips

Collection Points

There are 126 collection points speared in the entire town. (Annex D).

Due to shortage of equipment and manpower TMA is not capable to serve the entire area of the town. As such some areas have good service level while others are completely deprived of it. Much of the area of town is un-served and heaps of solid wastes go on accumulating in these areas and some of them are removed only when they exceed the toleration level.

Waste generated in the city taking 0.4 kg/c/d is around 10.66 tons. According to PMS, PMDFC data 5.89 tons is being disposed of Annex D. Therefore, 55 % of solid waste generated in the town is being collected by the TMA.

4.4.2 Service Level

Due to shortage of equipment and manpower TMA Ahmedpur Sial is not able to serve the entire area of the town. Some areas have good service delivery level whereas other having lesser attention gets poor service. Much of the area is un-served and heaps of solid waste accumulates in these areas and some of them are removed only when they exceed the toleration level. The service level in the town is stated as under:

4.4.3 Land Fill/Dumping Sites

No proper land fill site is available in or outside of this town. The solid waste is dumped in open spaces wherever available, creating total in-sanitary & unhygienic conditions, deteriorating the environments of the town, emitting obnoxious smells and breeding, existing point are 8-numbers, mosquitoes and flies, which are responsible for spreading communicable diseases. Presently. most of the solid waste is being disposed at river bank about 5 km from the town.

4.4.5 Needs

The TMA has got a capacity of managing only around 10-12 ton/day with the existing equipment and manpower. If the management capacity of TMA is not improved, the town will face serious environmental threats with heaps of solid waste emerging up in street, bazaars, open spaces and even in play grounds. Proper landfill site is needed to dispose of solid waste in sanitary way.

Unfortunately, there is no proper system of secondary collection and disposal system. Skips are needed at major roads and waste should be collected and disposed a t a sanitary landfill site. Most of the collected solid waste is just placed in open plots or filled in depressions around the town.

Table below indicates that 2.5 acres are needed for next 10 years and around 6 acres for next 20 years for development of landfill site in Ahmedpur Sial.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 36 Road Boundary 4.5 Fire Fighting

4.5.1 Existing Fire Fighting Arrangements

There is no fire fighting arrangements in the town.

4.6 Parks

4.6.1 Existing Parks

There are no parks in the town for citizens. PDSSP has recently allocated grant for the purchase of two large grass cutting machines to be run by small tractors.

4.6.2 Needs

Two parks in the town are needed. One for general public and the other for women and children.

4.7 Slaughter House

4.7.1 Existing Situation

Existing slaughter house is located at Road. The road is metelled but in poor condition. It is built on TMA property. It is located away from town. Building is in fair condition. It has one hall as well as space in courtyard that is used for slaughtering and skinning. Total area is about 10 marlas. On all sides of the slaughter house there are fields. There is no office and there is not enough parking place in the slaughter house. There is no electricity connection. There is no gate and stray animals Exhibit: can freely wander inside.

Water Supply System

Water is not supplied by public water supply. There is no storage tank therefore washing of slaughtered animals is not possible. But couple of open masonry tanks that are used to store water that is open not clean. There is a small motor inside the hall that is used when electricity is not available.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 37 Drainage System

Effluent disposal is not connected to sewerage system and is discharged into open ground at back of the slaughter house. Although, contaminates are not toxic in natures, but they can introduce bacterial contamination and increase nitrates, phosphates and sulfates concentration in water, leading to health problems.

Solid Waste

Solid waste is being dumped in at back side of slaughter house. No treatment is being done on the solid waste generated. Soil is also being contaminated where solid waste is being finally dumped. Although, citizens are not living around the place but stray animals and flies can spread diseases.

Existing Establishment

The veterinary doctor is on honorarium of Rs. 800/- per month which is extremely low. Due to this reason he is not available during slaughtering. One sanitary worker is attached with the slaughter house.

4.7.2 Needs

Proper operation & maintenance of the slaughter house is needed. It needs adequate water supply, electricity and waste disposal mechanism. It should be backed by proper regulation for butchers to slaughter in the slaughter house.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 38

CHAPTER 5: WORKSHOP ON VISIONING AND PRIORITIZATION OF DEVELOPMENT SECTORS

Once the data was analyzed for all the sectors it provided with an understanding of the existing situation. The next step was to develop a vision for the development of the town. This establishes immediate priorities in order to achieve the desired objectives. For this purpose all the stake holders were formally gathered under one umbrella to agree a shared vision about the town.

The following methodology was adopted for the prioritization process.

5.1 Pre-Workshop Consultations

PMDFC held meeting with Tehsil Nazim to discuss and finalize the workshop methodology. The purpose was to develop a common understanding and build consensus about the workshop methodology and the proposed projects. The Tehsil Nazim was requested to invite the participants for workshop and make available suitable venue for it.

PMDFC briefed how the workshop would proceed, including details about formation of groups, inter- sector prioritization (i.e. roads vs water supply vs sewerage etc.), followed by intra- sector prioritization, e.g. in case of roads sector, individual road projects for the whole town were prioritized.

5.2 Workshop Proceedings

5.2.1 General

The work shop was held on 25th April, 2007, in TMA complex, Ahmedpur Sial. It commenced at 12:00 p.m and was concluded at around 2:30 p.m.

5.2.2 Workshop Participants

The number of participants was 15. The stake holders were mainly the representatives of the Tehsil Council and Union naib nazims, from 5 urban UCs of TMA Ahmedpur Sial.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 39 5.2.3 The Session

The workshop was formally started with a presentation was given by PMDFC on, the existing situation of the town and proposed list of sub projects. During the presentation, the participants took a keen interest, and asked a number of questions about the working of, and already projects under taken by PMDFC. They further updated the information about the existing situation, e.g. the stakeholders had serious reservations about the fire fighting system, as it was considered inefficient.

5.2.4 Group Formation

The participants were divided into 3 groups at random, but it was ensured that people form same UC may not be included in the same group. Each group comprised of 4-5 persons.

In the first round, inter-sector prioritization was done. Each group was given a list of sectors i.e. roads, water supply, sewerage etc. They were first to label their priority before each sector e.g. if they thought drains was the most important problem of the town they were to assign 1 before drains, etc.

The results of the Inter sector prioritization were entered into a ‘priority matrix’. In this matrix, the group-wise sector priorities were entered as assigned by the group members. Based on the frequency of responses, the inter-sector prioritization was finalized.

In the second round, group members were asked to prioritize intra-sector projects. Thus in case of roads, name of individual roads identified were written Intra sector prioritization matrix. The participants suggested some new projects to be included, e.g. street lights, which had not been identified by the PMDFC. The priority-wise projects were then entered in intra-sector priority matrix, and sub-projects finalized on the basis of frequency of responses.

5.3 Outcome of the Visioning Workshop

Thus a prioritized list of projects was developed for TMA Ahmadpur sial, as shown below:

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 40

Sector Sector Schemes Priority Sewerage 1 System PMSIP sub-projects Road Network 2

Improvement/Extension of water Water Supply 3 supply network

Solid Waste 4 Improvement of SWM Management

Slaughter 5 Improvement of slaughter house House

Parks 6 Development of Park

Improvement/Extension of street Street Lights 7 lights

8 Bus Stand Development of bus stand

Development of fire fighting system Fire Fighting 9

The prioritization process calls for the road map for the allocation of resources for the TMA.

The Planning process adopted minimizes the selection of projects at random or biasness, rather it reflects the ground realities and is demand driven. If the projects are not need based, they are not sustainable for long period of time and become redundant without any benefit to the community or the user. Even if such projects survive, they benefit only a specific group of people. It is therefore important for Infrastructure projects to be need based and both beneficial to and acceptable to the community. To make it mandatory, the involvement of stakeholders was ensured at all stages of planning, including the process of prioritization of the development projects.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 41 CHAPTER 6: SITUATION ANALYSIS AND PMDFC INTERVENTIONS

1. TMA staff was never offered much needed computer training and necessary hardware essential for creating an automated office environment. 2. Information flow within the TMA and with its stakeholders was quite rudimentary and means of communication adopted were notice board and word of mouth. 3. The complaint center, a mandatory requirement of PLGO 2001, was not formally established. Complaint resolution was devolved to the level of union councils where complaints related to CO Office were resolved by relevant staff. However complaints’ resolution was without a set of standard operating procedures and lacked coordination amongst TMA staff. As PMDFC is geared towards improving the skills of TMA staff and considers improvement in service delivery inconceivable without a strong human resource base, it introduced human resource development initiatives unprecedented at TMA level under the umbrella of PMSIP. Since, PMSIP aims to improve performance and service delivery of TMAs - office automation is identified as the first step towards achieving these goals.

Following Institutional development efforts are being done in TMA Ahmedpur Sial along with the planning exercise.

6.1 Capacity Building / Trainings

As IT skills are integral to efficient and effective office management in present times, PMDFC imparted I.T. training to the TMA Ahmedpur Sial staff. It was complemented with the provision office equipment is; they were able to use it efficiently. Moreover, the said IT trainings are an important step towards the computerization of office records and are resulting in efficient office management. It is hoped that analysis of data would become easy and errors in record keeping would be decreased considerably. Moreover, I.T. skills are also a pre-requisite for PMSIP interventions such as: Financial Management System, Complaint Tracking System, Performance Management System etc.

PMDFC arranged for the basic computer training of 18 staff members, nominated by the TMA. The trainees attended a 3 month short course. An interim assessment of trainees was done by PMDFC and their performance and level of skills gained was found to be dissatisfactory.

6.2 Complaint Cell (Complaint Tracking System)

Section 188 of PLGO 2001 lays down for the establishment of a complaint cell at the Tehsil level. It states:

“Every District Government, Tehsil Municipal Administration, Town Municipal Administration and Union Administration shall set up a complaint cell for redressal of grievances within the ambit of their responsibilities under this Ordinance.”

The Tehsil Nazim and the TMO were involved in setting up a complaint cell at the TMA office. The complaint cell was established under the supervision of the TMO Mr. Anwar Ali, computer operator is working as complaint centre incharge. A standard design of complaint register was developed by PMDFC and the register was handed over to the TMA. A 1 day hands-on training was given to the officials in accordance with the standard operating procedures developed by PMDFC for complaint resolution.

The Complaint Tracking system was introduced in TMA Shorkot in two steps: 1) Manual Complaint Tracking System and 2) Computerized Complaint Tracking System. In Manual system a standard design of complaint register was developed by PMDFC and the register was handed over to the TMA. A one day hands-on training was given to the officials in accordance with the standard operating procedures developed by PMDFC for complaint resolution. For computerized system PMDFC developed a in-house software for complaint resolution and handed over to TMSA after requisite training. A computer and a printer were also provided to the TMA with this software. Both systems track type of problem and its resolution details. Mr Anwar Ali, computer operator was trained and appointed as complaint cell incharge.

PMDFC hopes that its ground Sectoral Analysis of Complaints Data breaking interventions will go a long way in the human resource March - Aug 2007 AP Sial development of TMA AP Sial and 1% 3% 26% its staff once equipped with right 24% Water Supply skills set can be expected to Sew erage provide timely, cost effective and Solid Waste Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial Street Light 43 46% Misc reliable services to the citizens of AP Sial.

A breakdown of complaint data is shown in form of chart from Jan – Sep 2007. Most of the complaints registered are from the water supply sector.

6.3 Performance Management System

PMDFC is introducing Performance Management System in Year – II TMAs. Field assessment of the TMA revealed that data existed in rudimentary form regarding performance indicators on municipal services like water supply, solid waste, street lights and sewerage. However, there was lack of data tracking, updation and reporting culture.

6.3.1 Performance Management System

Performance Management System in TMAs is one of the key institutional development components of performance improvement plan (PIP) that PMDFC is implementing in partner TMAs. PMDFC has taken the initiative of implementing PMS in its partner TMAs, under the guidance of Mr. Harry P. Hatry and Ms Rittu Nayyar Stone from Urban Institute Washington and World Bank. In March 05, a team of experts from Urban Institute visited PMDFC and arranged a two days workshop (19 & 21 March 05) at Hotel Avari, Lahore on Performance Management System. Mr Sajjad Hussain , Chief Officer, A. P. Sial is incharge of PMS.

The details of workshops / seminars in which TMA Ahmedpur Sial was invited.

6.3.2 Data Collection & Analysis

Before initiation of PMS, there was lack of data collection and reporting culture particularly in municipal service delivery. After development of performance indicators and selection of core indicators, data collection formats were developed and shared with the TMAs during the two workshops held in July 05 (3 & 10 July). Trainings were also provided to TMA staff where required for data collection. The last two workshops were arranged to train the nominated TMA staff for road rating and parks survey. TMA Ahmedpur Sial was then asked to collect and report data on core performance indicators by the end of July 06, which was used as baseline for year 2006-07.

It almost takes more than four months to clean the data and get the reports in given reporting formats. The reporting formats were developed as per discussions with relevant TMA officials. Data for the reported period was analyzed and its cleaning was done.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 45 6.3.3 Target Setting

After finalization of baseline values during the month of Dec 06, TMA was facilitated to set target values against each performance indicator. Target setting was based on the analysis of present infrastructure, cost of providing services, revenue from services and available resources for any up-gradation/repair/maintenance of municipal services. The targets set by TMA Mailsi involved serious discussions with Tehsil Nazim, TMO and TO (I&S) particularly and other TMA staff.

6.4 Financial Management System

It is envisaged that the computerized financial management system will be able to address the issues faced by the TMAs in managing their finances on more professional grounds. The following list highlights some of the areas where TMAs are facing issues maintaining books of accounts.

Highlights of Computerized Financial Management System

The following list highlights some of the areas where TMAs will benefit from the computerized financial management system:  Only one point entry of the receipts and payment vouchers and the system will automatically maintain all the subsidiary records.  Minimize the duplicate and redundant data maintenance.  Automation of bank reconciliation with the Cash Book and other registers.  Separate accounting record for special grants, CCB funds etc.  Facilitate in preparation of annual budgets.  Matching cost of services with the related revenue.  Maintenance of contracts, billing and collection records to manage water rate, rent of shops, license fee, auctioned revenues to contracts etc.  Generation of various analytical reports related to income and expenditures for various authorities.  Monitoring of CO unit-wise revenues and expenditures  Improvement in budgetary controls by converting annual figures into monthly breakups, which will be comparable with actual monthly accounts.

FMS in TMA Ahmedpur Sial

In TMA Ahmedpur Sial FMS was installed and basic training was given to the TMA staff. Initial setups were completed and data was entered in Water Consumer database, establishment check register, shop demand and collection register, and classified abstract. Mr. Majid Butt from accounts branch was trained to work on FMS and was also appointed as focal person by TMO.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 47 CHAPTER 7: OUTLINE STRUCTURE PLAN - AHMEDPUR SIAL

Ahmedpur Sial is a city of Jhang District in the Punjab province of Pakistan. The city is the headquarters of Ahmedpur Sial Tehsil which an administrative subdivision of the district.

It is situated on the Khushab - Muzaffargargh road, 98 km from Muzaffargarh and 150 km from Khushab. It lies just a few kilometres from the River Chenab. It is a very agricultural area and wheat, cotton, rice and sugar cane are major crops.Kot Bahadur also is a village of the Ahmedpur sial. It is the most beautiful place in tehsil Ahmedpur Sial. Mian Ahmed Din Bhatti was the person who developed the Kot Bahadur and Ahmedpur Sial.

Due to rapid urbanization , the cities in Punjab are growing in a haphazard manner, without any development control. Likely, Ahmadpur Sial is facing the same problem. The available infrastructure in the town is deteriorating as the population pressure is not keeping pace with the available resources for the extension of the infrastructure. The town face the problems like incompatible land uses, unhealthy environment, and loss of amenity. Hence, an Outline Structure Plan has been devised for Ahmadpur Sial. This plan identifies the growth potential in an economical and contiguous manner for future development of the town.

7.1 Brief Introduction

This plan has been prepared as a part of the planning report of Daska. The report indicates that the town is expanding without proper planning and development control. The Outline structure plan, thus prepared for Renala describes the strategy, outline spatial plan, together with Action plans. In essence, the strategy identifies immediate development priorities for various service sectors. The spatial plan provides general information on planned land uses and the structure of development in the town. The Action plans are related to the priority sectors and areas identified in the strategy. Each Action plan consists of a number of proposals.

The plan provides a systematic approach to address the immediate development needs as well as long term development requirements for next 20 years. The plan highlights remedial measures to solve existing problems as well as suggests ways for future systematic growth of the town.

7.2 Visioning & Priority of Stakeholders

Focus of PMSIP planning is constant input of various stakeholders in all planning stages. Initial contact was developed with TMA leadership and the relevant staff. Field data collection was done in collaboration with line TMA staff and various segments of the society. This assisted in developing broad vision for existing fabric of the municipal services. Finally, a formal stakeholder workshop attended by elected representatives, Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 48 NGOs, important citizens etc prioritized municipal services to finalize a vision for the town. This process is hence the amalgamation of technical inputs and the aspiration of the stakeholders’ improved municipal services with an effective O & M framework were deemed a vision to improve life of citizens. Further, general consensus was developed on the priority sectors that needed immediate attention.

The order of importance to stakeholders for improving various municipal serves is as follows:

A. Sewerage B. Roads & Street Lights C Water Supply D. Solid waste management E. Slaughter House F. Parks G. Fire Fighting

Therefore, improvement in sewerage and roads are the most important need of the town followed by roads and water supply.

7.3 Development Plans

Having established the priorities, the next step of the Plan was to provide broad guidelines to suggest measures to control the future growth of the town. This has been determined after assessing the potentials and constraints in the existing urban set up. The plan is prepared with 20 years perspective from year 2009 to year 2029.

This section of the report deals with an outline of proposals regarding;

- Identifying the growth potentials for the town as a whole so that the provision and extension of infrastructure remains economical. - Identifying gaps in exiting municipal services as well as identifying needs for the incremental population growth. - Action plans to cater for needs of present and future population in municipal services. Capacity building for O&M of the municipal services is also proposed in these Action Plans.

Development Strategy

Ahmadpur Sial is a medium sized town of Punjab. Ahmad Pur Sial town is situated on Muzaffargarh - Khushaab road at a distance of approximately 100 Km from Muzaffargarh, 100 Km from Jhang and 150 Km from Shorkot. It lies on right bank of River Chenab. It lies at north-east of Muzaffar city and south-west of Shorkot city. It is not connected with railway network. Rangpur canal is passing at north-west of the town at approximately 10 km from city.

The town has grown in sparsely fashion. Though the inner areas of the town comprise of narrow and irregular streets, but the outskirts of the town are bounded by open Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 49 agricultural areas. There is lot of room for future expansion in either direction. But the development strategy thus devised for the town stems for natural trends of growth.

The following development strategy is recommended for Ahmadpur Sial;

. Since the trend of growth is towards west along Main Ahmadpur Sial Road, so development should be encouraged in this direction. . Decentralization, by proposing more than one institutional zone in west to act as future town centre. . To improve the flow of traffic within the town by improving physical condition of the existing roads. Linkages be improved within the neighborhoods so as to lessen the pressure of traffic on the town centre, Improving the circulation pattern within the town by improving the inter neighborhood linkages. . Emphasis is made on filling the adjacent areas first so as to ensure the provision of infrastructure facilities economical. . Future residential development to follow neighborhood pattern of growth. Self contained neighborhoods, provided with all basic public and utility services, be developed in the north of the town. . Provision of a park in the central part of the town. . Improving the existing infrastructure, its maintenance and operation. . Inculcate Operational & Maintenance culture with provision of capacity building for the same.

7.4 Population Projection

Year 1998 2009 2029 Incremental population for next 20 years

Population 21,254 29,015 51,097 22,080 Growth rate = 2.87 % (1998 Population Census)

The population of the Ahmadpur Sial according to 1998 census was 21,254 persons. The estimated population for 2029 is 29,015 persons, i.e at the end of plan period. The total area occupied by the urban uses or the built up area is 500 acres. The incremental population is estimated to be 15,458 for next 20 years time. This has been calculated by using the growth rate 2.87 %.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 50 Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 51

7.5 Growth Direction

The town is growing in two distinct directions, north and west. The south and east directions are the flooded zone areas due to over flowing of the river Chenab.

In the north there is CBD developed near by pass. This CBD comprises of DDOR office, Education department, Health department, DSP Police office, etc.

In the north west of the town is the Garh Morh. This is a very important morh as the roads that generate from here are110 feet wide and are directed towards other important cities nearest to Ahmadpur Sial. These cities are Layyah, Muzaffar Garh, Garh mahraja and Jhang.

To the west of town is the main highway leading towards Muzzaffar Garh. The area between this road and town is also expected to have future growth. But at present no private housing schemes are being developing at present. This may be because of the reason that Ahmadpur Sial is a very small town where natural increase and rural urban migration trend is quiet slow. The economic status of the residents is not much to go for new schemes.

7.6 Katchi Abadis

There is only one katchi abadi in the town, i.e. Mohallah Hussain abad. The number of units is 48. This is an approved katchi abadi. 7.7 Densification of Built-Up Areas

Densification criteria vary from city to city. Each city has its own growth and development potential, based on economic activity, social, cultural and geographically strategic importance. Not all of the incremental population shifts towards the newly developed areas, rather some of the percentage is absorbed in the existing one. This is mainly because of the economic reasons. Its most serious consequences are, the overburdening of the existing infrastructure, therefore upgrading may be needed with the passage of time.

The density map above shows existing density in the town. Since the dark brown area is the most densely populated and is the oldest part of the town, there fore it is expected that not much vertical expansion occurs. Also, the structures are deteriorated and in shabby condition. The road widths are narrow and irregular. These structures are unable to bear the load of vertical expansion. Therefore, in this area densification would be low, i.e. between 10-20 % is expected in the plan period. Light brown area is shown as medium density. The approximate densification would be 20-30 % that may occur in this area during the plan period. Yellow area is sparsely populated and 50-60 % may be densification may occur in the plan period. This part of the town is recently developing area. Here new developments are taking place. This part also determines the growth Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 52 direction of the town. The vertical hatching shows the vacant pockets of land within the town.

Having calculated the incremental population, which amounts to be persons, is to be accommodated for future. Taking a densification factor of 30 % for the town after analyzing the above densification approximations, total accommodated population would be 15,458.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 54 7.8 Land Requirement of Future Urban Expansion

To identify the area required for future growth depends upon two important criterias. First is the location criteria and the second is the allocation criteria of land. The location criteria explain the availability of land in terms of the direction of growth, with respect to physical, socio-economic factors.

The allocation is defines the density. In turn the density determines the area requirement. The proposed growth strategy recommends filling up these vacant pockets first, then opening up new areas for development.

Present built up area of the town is 500 acres. Taking present population of 29,015 present density is 58 persons/acre. Following table indicates land requirement for residential purposes for the plan period.

Year 2009-2014 2014-2019 2019-2024 2024-2029 Total Incremental 4,409 5,080 5,852 6,741 22,082 population After taking account 3,086 3,556 4,097 4,719 15,458 densification factor of 30 % Residential Land 53 61 70 81 265 Requirement (Acres)*

* Residential density of 58 persons/acre are assumed for proposed land use plan

As residential area is approximately 70 % of the total land requirement for a small town such as Daska, total land requirement would be 265*3/10=79+265 (residential land requirement) = 344 acres.

7.9 Proposals

The strategy suggests improving the connectivity among different parts of the town and filling of the vacant pockets first. In case of Ahmedpur Sial, it is encircled by a provincial road in the north and a district road in the south. There are still vacant areas within the town.. It would be most economical to develop these areas first.

The future expansion of residential development is proposed to take place in planned manner in proposed neighborhoods. These neighborhoods would be self sustained units with all basic public facilities. In the proposal, the development is discussed in three successive stages:

 Proposal I: Filling the existing areas

In the first stage, the vacant pockets in and adjacent to the town will accommodate the growing population. Though currently, the housing schemes are being sprouting in north, east to some extent in the south of the town it would be more economical to allow areas to develop in the immediate vicinity to develop first. It would make infrastructure to be provided at the economical cost. The map of the town shows the vacant pockets.

 Proposal II: Circulation Pattern/Roads

With the increase in traffic, the existing roads needed to be expanded and widened. The Strategy is to facilitate free movement of goods and citizens in an efficient way.

The most important roads of the town are Main Ahmadpur Sial road, Samandhwana road, and other roads that pass through the neighbourhoods. The importance of these roads is due to these being the main arteries of the town. These roads bifurcate the entire neighborhoods. The main stream traffic running through the town is borne by these roads. Being a very small town, the load of traffic that these roads of the town carry is not of a very high cadre. Mostly the slow moving animal driven carts, cycles, motor cycles and wagons are present. In the first stage only the internal roads are recommended for improvement and resurfacing.

Meo Chowk Roads: The internal major roads of the town are those starting from meo and Khusdil Chowk. These roads carry the main commercial activities of the town. In first stage, these roads be cleared of all the encroachments so as to take maximum advantage of the right of way. The drainge and resurfacing is recommended.

Samandwanah Road: This is another important road of the town. Both of the roads leading in this direction should be resurfaced. The importance of Samandhwanah road is that in the next stage the town is supposed to grow along it. Therefore, its improvement will attract development and enhance connectivity.

 Proposal III A park is proposed in the central part of the town i.e near TMA office, north of graveyard. At present, the area is lying vacant. When future growth of town will take place this park would cater for the citizens of the town due to its central location.

7.9.2 Stage II

In the second stage, when the stage one area will be fully developed, the pressure will shift to peripheral localities.

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 57  ProposalI IV:

Once the existing vacant pockets of the town will be filled, the adjacent areas will start developing. With the increase in population there would be a necessity to develop other centres so as to decentralize the population pressure over the town central rad, i.e. Main Ahmadpur Sial road. For this reason, in the north,it has been proposed to shift the population pressure. In addition to it, an institutional area has also been suggested. Since residential development is occurring adjacent to the road, shifting of the institutions here would act as another centre of different activities. This would greatly help to diversify the land use activities, to. lessen the pressure over existing town area.

The map shows the neighborhood plan. With the development of the institutions, it has been proposed to widen the roads and development should take place keeping adequate right of way for the roads.

Link A The future institutional zone of the town is proposed along link A. This would start from Basti Shamsabad and would end up to the T intersection at the minor.

Link B: When the adjacent pocket of the land will be developed the link A will enhance the connectivity between the east and western part of the town.

Link C: This link will be an extension of the road emerging from Meo Chowk. This link will be an extension of the road emerging from Meo chowk and leads towards Samandwana road. This will be connected in future towards the minor 3L to serve the extended population.

7.9.3 Stage III

The third stage will allow for the development of a second neighborhood centre in the north west of the town. The residential localities, that were quickly developing in the second stage, shall encircle the new neighborhood enters. The proposal is as follows:

Proposal V:

As shown in the map, the third stage would allow the growth of the town beyond the proposed roads of second stage. In this stage, population will be accommodated in north and in south direction. Land is proposed to be earmarked for Pipal Wala road for institutional activities.

7.10.2 Action Plan for Roads

Ahmedpur Sial is not a planned town therefore; roads are not laid with taking care of planning requirements. Most of the roads in main town are not wide. ROW is not sufficient for future expansion. There are permanent and temporary encroachments in congested areas and bazars. Major Chowks (crossings) in Ahmedpur Sial town are Meo Chowk, Khush Dil Chowk and Ahmedpur Sial More. Ahmedpur Sial town is connected with major towns Jhang and Muzafagarh by Jhang-Muzafargarh road.

Action Plan - 1  Road marking and improvement of foot paths on main roads.  Procurement of road level.  New Bus Stand would be made developed  Operation & Maintenance training to road staff.  Allocation of sufficient Operation & Maintenance under roads head in the budget.

Action Plan - 2

PMSIP Sub-Project: Construction of road from T-Junction of Muzaffar Garh-Khushab Road and ends at Ghadeer Chowk. The road length is 8045 feet (2.45 km). Total estimated cost of this sub project has been worked out to be Rs. 88.364

Action Plan – 3

A periphery road is shown on Road Action Plan map as thick red dotted. Thin red dotted roads are also shown in this plan. These roads would provide a guided growth to the town in the peri-urban mentioned in the proposals. Municipal utilities would be developed as per need along these proposed roads. In addition, two bridges to connect these proposed roads are also proposed.

7.10.3 Action Plan for Water Supply

Nearly 10 % of the Ahmedpur Sial Town is covered by water supply whereas the rest of the Piped water supply is available for the distribution of potable water in the town. As per available data/ information pipe sizes ranging from 3” to 6“ i/d have been used in the distribution systems. One overhead reservoir of capacity 20,000 gallons is located in the town but its use seems infrequent. As, itts a sweat water zone there is not much demand for TMA water supply.

Action Plan -1  Development of user connection database  Measurement of the present discharge of each tube well to find out which tube wells are running economically. Bulk meters installed at each tube well.  Replacement of the pipelines which are leaking and causing contamination.  Operation & Maintenance training to water supply staff  Allocation of sufficient Operation & Maintenance budget in the Annual TMA budget.

Action Plan - 2

Additional water would be needed for incremental population growth in the newly developed areas. Main water supply lines would be developed along the main roads developed in the peri-urban areas as shown in the map.

7.10.4 Action Plan for Solid Waste Management

There is only one tractor-trolley, 2 animal carts and 25 hand carts to carry primary collection and final disposal of solid wastes. Collection efficiency is very low around 20 %. There are no proper landfill sites. Sanitary workers are also less to cater the town. PDSSP has recently made a grant to TMA for the purchase of some equipment such as four (4) Holland Tractors, 400 small drums and 10 containers.

Action Plan -1 Improvement of Solid Waste Collection System  Procurement of new wheel barrows in place of non-operational ones.  House-House collection started on pilot basis in few localities.  Operation & Maintenance training to solid waste management staff.  Allocation of sufficient Operation & Maintenance budget in the Annual TMA budget. Action Plan -2

Development of Disposal Site

Planning Report - Ahmedpur Sial 64 No landfill site is available in or out side of the town. For landfill site addition manpower and machinery would be required. 2.5 acres are needed for next 10 years and around 6 acres for next 20 years for development of landfill site in Ahmedpur Sial. The site for landfill should be away from inhabitants, water bodies, flood areas etc.

7.10.5 Action Plan for – Slaughter House

7.10.6 Action Plan for – Parks

Presently, there is no park in the city. PDSSP has recently allocated grant for the purchase of two large grass cutting machines to be run by small tractors.

7.10.7 Action Plan for – Fire Fighting Arrangements

Action Plan – 1

 Recruitment of vacant fire fighting positions.  Staff training  Fire fighting incidence record keeping
