Implementation of plan proposals has direct implications on urban growth and development. For this, a vibrant, robust and coordinated network of institutions and information system is essential for full utilisation of available financial and other resources judiciously. Besides, a set of tools are needed to implement plan properly.
These tools include legal protection of plan, regulatory measures of land use controls, i.e., land and zoning regulations, building regulations etc., controls on development activities and capital enhancement programmes. Other subordinate tools like tax policy, township policy, land acquisition, institutional reorganisation, incentives for public-private partnerships etc. must be attuned to the goals and objectives of the master plan.
Further, the plan constantly need its translation into socio-economic and investment programmes. However, spatio-temporal variations in availability of planning tools and their limitations should be recognised during preparation of plan to ensure its successful implementation. For instance, land use zoning or compulsory purchase of land may well exist on paper or in legislation but are not effective in practice.
Such exercise enhances effectiveness of master plans and their implementation on ground level.
The execution of master plan is carried out either by municipality or corporation. For execution a team of experts in Engineering, Architecture, Public health, Sociology, Economics, Finance etc. headed by a Town Planner is required. After the master plan is accepted and approved by the concerned authority, the steps to be taken will be
(1) to fix the broad policies in connection with various proposals.
(2) to prepare the list of the urgent works according to their priorities.
(3) to prepare the detailed estimates of work of top priority.
(4) to prepare a financial programme.
It takes many years to complete the works contemplated in the master plan. The cost is also very high amount. So the expenditure will have to be distributed over several years. Moreover, several modifications will have to be made as such no final estimate is made in the initial stage.
The most important part of master plan is the reservation of land for road system, open spaces, and public amenities, which cannot be provided for at a later date. Once it is finalised, no building should be allowed to construct which will upset the street.
