Corporation of Chennai is preparing a proposal towards Smart City Challenge which would include city wide smart urban solutions as well as identification of areas within the city for its implementation.

The proposal would be defined primarily based on voice of Chennai residents. An extensive citizen engagement programme is established by Corporation of Chennai to document the views and concernsfor the same.

Residents may post their opinion and ideas on civic services such as transport, parking, water supply, sanitation, energy, housing, IT solutions,health, education, safety and security. Your views, opinion and solutions on urban issues faced by Chennai would not only support a better tomorrow for Chennaites, it will also make Chennai a strong contender for getting shortlisted as one of the first 20 cities in India to implement Smart City Solutions in Phase 1.

Chennai citizen and community is its biggest strength. Let’s participate to make this proposal inclusive and meaningful for every common man, every citizen.

The last date to submit your comments is 15th October, 2015.

Since cities are a kind of living organism, decisions are often based on human choice as much as on technical facts and figures. It might also be smarter to omit specific technologies for specific requirements. Making a city smart might also require urban leaders to stand for a vision that might not be the most popular at the beginning.

Especially as urban development does not follow deterministic rules and there exists no “one-and-only” recipe for integrated urban development in general and for smart cities in particular, holistic development approaches focusing on local conditions including also knowledge about the mindsets of people are necessary to ensure that cities become smart, or even smarter.

Building smart cities requires a top–down approach that is complemented by including the public at large in decision making. Thus, building smart cities requires not only a well-formulated vision of smart urban growth that is promoted among local-government decision makers but also inclusive implementation of that vision.

But even this latter definition remains obtuse and fuzzy. Smart concepts are integrated into urban development to acknowledge the growing importance of ICT, but the social and environmental capital is required to create competitive cities as well. These latter two attributes—social and environmental capital—distinguish smart cities from their technology-laden counterparts such as “digital,” “intelligent,” or “virtual” cities.

Can the notion of smart cities subsume economic competitiveness, inclusive growth, and environmental sustainability? Answering such a question requires clarifying the meaning of the term “smart city” itself. This phrase has become a catch-all reference to urban development that incorporates information and communication technology (ICT).
