| Description | The objective of the Project is to optimize social and economic development in the urban areas of west Karnataka by supporting investments in urban infrastructure and services required to meet basic human needs and facilitating policy reforms to strengthen urban management. The Project will be undertaken in six parts: Part A will provide support for capacity building of local government administrations and community participation with particular emphasis on the formation of sustainable community-based organizations to participate in the design and implementation of poverty reduction subprojects; Part B will include water supply rehabilitation and expansion; Part C will improve urban environment quality, including wastewater management, storm water drainage, solid waste management, traffic management, and municipal services and facilities, such as public markets and slaughterhouses; Part D will improve transportation by upgrading streets and bridges in urban areas; Part E will focus on coastal environment management through the preparation of a coastal resource management and conservation plan, development of a cleaner production and environment monitoring program, promotion of coastal erosion protection through mangrove reforestation, and preparation of a Mangalore urban waterfront rehabilitation plan; and Part F will provide implementation assistance. | ||||
| Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy | Urban growth in the coastal districts has far exceeded the capacity of existing infrastructure and services with resultant negative impacts on human welfare, economic growth, and the natural environment. In addition, the inadequate environmental management measures have contributed to significant degradation of the region's valuable natural resources. The state identified ten urban centers as priority areas for investment in basic urban infrastructure, essential municipal services, and institutional strengthening. Each of these towns prepared subproject proposals that were initially reviewed by the state and the Bank in terms of likely eligibility for Bank financing and to assure that basic human needs are met along with other social and public health objectives. The project fell within the Indian and State five year plans, in place in 1997 when the loan was first being formulated. It was listed in ADB's 3 year rolling country plans in 1997-1999. This was the second loan to Karnataka, following Loan 1415-IND: Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Project approved in 1996. The project was developed in close coordination with KUIDFC and the 10 participating towns. |
