            Property tax is the primary source of Municipal revenue.  Usually a sum of Rs. 55.90 lakhs is collected under this item.  Out of a total revenue of 71.10 lakhs property tax is the major source, of this ULB.

             Even though.  Collection of Property tax is the major source of Revenue, it is not possible as on date even to meet  out the recurring expenditure.

             To meet out  the financial crisis with fiscal Revenue,  necessary Budgetary provision were given under Government heads of grant.  Here, S.F.C.  grant must be a needful one.

             Even in this S.F.C. grants also ½ of the total grants have been adjusted towards outstanding liabilities and ½ of the lump sum is received at our  end.

 (ii) SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT:-

Overview

            As per  the definition provided by the Municipal solid waste (Management and handling) rules, 2000 of Government of India, Municipal solid waste (MSW)includes commercial and residential wastes generated in municipal or notified areas in either solid or semi-solid form.

 Existing Situation of Solid Waste Management:-

            The collection, transportation and disposal  of municipal solid waste is an obligatory function of the Nellikuppam  Municipality.  The municipal solid waste mainly comprises waste from households, markets, commercial establishments, hotel, hospitals etc., 

Roads:-

Over View:-

            Nellikuppam  Municipality has maintained the roads as follows:-

                                                                            Length(in KM)

1)     W.B.M. Road.                                                 23.427

2)     B.T. Road                                                        21.635

3)     C.C. Road.                                                        1.627

4)     Earthern Rod                                                   1.524

                                                                               -------

                        Total.                                                     48.231

 The existing several roads are badly damaged   and are in  need of upgradation.  Hence  it is proposed to take up the 30 works under Road Development Project 2005-2006.

The total length of Internal roads coming under the maintenance of the Municipality is 48.230 Kms besides the road maintained by N.H. and Rural Roads.  Most of the roads were laid before 5 to 7 years.   Major roads were affected in the last heavy rain  and it is very difficult to the riders and also the pedestrions.  This roads are to be upgraded.

       Most of the unapproved layouts were regularized as per the instructions of the Govt.,  Due to the non availability of drain the waste water coming out from houses stagnated  in the road and made health hazards  to the public. 

  These roads are takenup  under this scheme.  If  this roads were laid most of the roads are coming in good condition to the entire satisfaction of the public as well as pedestrians and riders.

In unapproved layouts the roads and drains are constructed and the health problem are solved and thereby the long dream of the public come true.

 Projects Identified by Municipalities:-

        The Commissioner of Municipal Administration, Chennai has sanctioned a Road.  Development Project 2005-2006 to this Municipality.  The funding pattern for the scheme is 16/- lakhs as loan, Rs. 50 /- lakhs as grant and remaining portion is to be met from R.F. of the  Municipality.  Under this scheme 30 roads were takenup at an estimate cost of Rs. 73.00 lakhs Govt., grant for the scheme of Rs. 50 /- lakhs was released and adjusted in Municipal account.  

      For the loan amount a proposal was submitted to TNUIFSL .  Now the component   of  loan and municipal contribution amount of Rs. 16 /- lakhs and 7lakhs is modified as grant and a total of Rs. 23.00 lakhs is to be obtained from TUFIDCO under UIDSSMT Scheme.

            Necessary grant may be sanctioned for execution of         Road works under UIDSSMT scheme which has been already decided  to get from  TNUIFSL and to meet from Municipal fund.

 V. WORKING ON STRATEGIES.

             The gap between where the city is and where it wishes to go can be bridged by pursuing difference strategies and programme.  It is important  that alternative strategies for meeting the gap are identified and subjected to careful evaluation.  In the context of the UIDSSMT the selection of a strategy or a set of strategies should be guided by their contribution to its goals, objectives and the reform agenda.

             The Selection of a strategy is an extremely important constituents of a UIDSSMT needs to be done with wide-ranging consultations among key stakeholders.  A strategy that links the urban poor with service provision may be preferred compared to the one that aims at expansion of service without any reference to its potential beneficiaries or target groups.  An urban renewal strategy which incorporates the interests of the poor in the transition phase may rank high in comparison with another, which does not distinguish between different affected groups.  It is thus evident  that evaluation of alternative strategies aims are maximizing the impact-be it the water supply project or a constituent of the reform agenda like the repellent of the Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation ) Act 1976.
