A presentation on MPP in Nepalese context

1. Municipal Periodic Plan (MPP):
in Nepalese Context
(evolution, practice and processes)

2. Historical root of town planning:
industrial revolution
Filthy sanitary condition
Congestion
Crowded housing
Disease and high mortality
Poverty
Crime

3. Early responses
Physical Planning as means to social reform
British Planning
Comprehensive town planning (1840s)
Garden Cities of Tomorrow (Howard, 1898)
Urban Containment- Green belt and new towns (1955)
Long-term Development Plan (1955)
American Planning
Master or General Plan and Zoning (1928)

4. Alternative planning concept
Evolved from the criticism of fixed and detailed master plan
system approach (1969) (interconnected "whole" at dynamic
state and change) led to the broader structure plan—
consisting of economic and social plans
"planning is also political"—the view implied democratic
process emphasizing public participation in decision-making
led to "participatory planning"
"Plan making and problem of implementation are inseparable
parts"—the view led to "action planning"—fusion of planning
and action

14. Threat
Desire for comprehensiveness
Coverage and detailing — Problem of data collection,
integrating plan elements, “activity” prioritization
“Blindness” syndrome“Blindness” syndrome
Overriding problems supersede all
"Vision" biasedness
Policies become guided by the future than the
present

15. Conclusion
Periodic plan (-ning) appears to be a reasonable planning option for
the municipalities. Because, it allows more scope for dealing with
social and economic issues.social and economic issues.
However, is that its usefulness may increase only if the
municipalities balance pragmatism and action along the path to
vision.

17. How it is prepared?
(methods/process of plan preparation)(methods/process of plan preparation)

18. Legal provisions
• LSGA and Regulations
• Periodic Plan Preparation Guidelines of 2002 (MLD)

19. Methods of plan preparation
Three phases
–Pre-plan preparation
–Plan preparation–Plan preparation
–Post-plan preparation

20. Methods: Pre-plan preparation
Awareness through consultations, orientations, and
correspondence
Municipal request
Commitment from the Municipality on matching fund
Departmental sanction for the annual programs
Consultant procurement

Interactive vision driven "indicator" based planning using Logical
Framework Approach (LFA)
Ward meetings and gatheringsWard meetings and gatherings
Problem identification and prioritization
Physical planning
specialized analysis and input

23. Limitations in the methods
• Time consuming — in seeking consensus among stakeholders
• Unavailability of municipal data
• Relevance of LFA — difficult to practice
• Consultants' effectiveness — in interactive planning

24. Future direction
Periodic plan offers holistic view of municipal development, which
physical plan alone does not provide
Methods require refining to cope with the ground realities
Periodic plan must be basis for municipal development and
investmentinvestment
More effort is required for adoption by all the municipalities
