Vijayawada Municipal Corporation identifies land for innovative street vendor zones
Vijayawada: The development of the Project Smart Street (Smart Vending Zones) to support urban street vendors under the Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana Urban Livelihood Mission Scheme (DAY-NULM) in Vijayawada has gained momentum, with the Vijayawada Municipal Corporation (VMC) identifying land to establish the smart vending zones on a 200-metre stretch at Vidyadharapuram RTC workshop road in Vijayawada. "A total of 10 containers with 40 shops will be established, with each container housing four shops. Applications have been invited from interested street vendors to set up their shops at the Smart Street Vending Zone, with July 11 as the last date," VMC Urban Community Development (UCD) project officer Venkata Narayana told TOI. The UCD officer said that the shops will be allocated to eligible street vendors through a lottery system if the municipal corporation receives a high number of applications. Otherwise, they will be allocated directly to applicants if the number of applications is low. "The total cost of Project Smart Street is around Rs 5 crore, which includes the beneficiaries' contribution for setting up their shops at the containers," the official mentioned. He added that the municipal corporation aims to complete the project and inaugurate the Smart Street Vending Zones by Sep, although the deadline for completion is the end of 2025. The UCD official explained that the project aims to create a sustainable and inclusive urban street environment in Vijayawada that supports street vendors, enhances public spaces, and integrates eco-friendly infrastructure for social and economic upliftment. The Smart Street pilot project in Vijayawada revitalises urban voids along the road, offering affordable spaces for street vendors to boost the local economy. It integrates sustainability through solar panels and generates revenue via leased ad spaces, rooftop dining, free Wi-Fi, paved pathways, and more.

Mysuru civic body to use women SHGs to collect property tax
MYSURU : Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) is set to use the services of women self-help groups (SHGs) to collect property tax and water dues from defaulters. Among the 20 women SHGs that applied for the job, the civic body has finalised eight groups. MCC has provided the necessary training to them and will soon give permission to these groups to start collecting taxes. Only women self-help groups registered under the DAY-NULM (Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana-National Urban Livelihoods Mission) scheme, who have digital literacy, computer knowledge, education and qualifications, were selected and trained. MCC will give a 5 percent commission of the amount collected from property tax and water cess payers to the SHGs. The women will not only visit door-to-door for the collection of the water and property cess but also help them in pay via both online and offline after calculating the amount. Among the 8 SHGs that were finalised in all the 65 ward limits, five of them will collect property tax and the rest the water cess. The following were the 5 SHGs selected for the collection of property tax: Chamundeshwari Women SHG, Alanahalli; Daneshwari Women SHG, Vidyaranyapuram; Sharathy of Saraswathipuram; Angalaparameshwari of Janatha Colony; and Arora Women SHG of Agrahara. Meanwhile, Spoorthy Women SHG of Azeezsait Nagar, Mallige of Kuvempu Nagar and Sanjeevini Women SHG of Rajiv Nagar were entrusted with the responsibility of collecting water cess. MCC also selected another six women self-help groups in the city for maintaining parks after cancelling the contract system of awarding contracts to contractors and agencies for its maintenance. They are Annapoorneshwari, Lakshmi Saraswathi, Sammathi, Ya Abeeb, Gulshan and Noor-like women self-help group organisation members of the city. MCC will pay Rs 2 to 10 lakh for the maintenance of parks for each organisation. Speaking to TOI, MCC deputy commissioner (revenue) Somashekhar Jigani said MCC has roped in the services of women self-groups to achieve 100 percent tax collection, as property tax and water cess are the two major sources of its revenue. This initiative also helps SHGs to earn revenue, he said.
