Chennai should give WiFi connections to all houses or flats for monitoring their houses as well as neighborhood. This will reduce investment and maintenance on cameras. Each street or community of streets should be secured by drop gates for better security. Water bodies should be preserved by developing parks or each park should have ground water charging pits for improving water tables. All statues should be placed in one designated place for safety and avoid duplication.

Chennai should charge car parking charges for those parking on roads. To reduce pollution, pollution charges should be levied based on number of years of usage, type of fuel and pollution certificate on increasing scale for removing such vehicles from the city. Incentives should be given to those who are planting trees, not parking on roads, rain water harvesting and solar energy generation houses,solid waste disposal by energy generation or treatment plant colony of houses or flats or both.

the area between Tambaram East and Velachery is not covered by train facility. if metro rail is not possible due to space constraint mono rail feasibility should be tried. Pallikkaranai Marsh area should be freed from discharge of drainage into it and garbage should not be dumped in Marsh area.

Chennai should introduce water usage meters for collecting usage charges which will be on increasing slab rates for conserving water. Fine for not keeping or using rain water harvesting, solar energy panels, water treatment plants, solid waste energy plants should be introduced for house or flat as well as each community area covering streets. Building plan approval should be done only through online by higher rates for each kitchen to curb corruption.Each street work should be done at one-go
