In every smart city there should be garbage recycling plant, where dry waste & wet waste to be separated. Organic manure tank should be built for wet waste Then plant trees like Ashwatha, Neem. which release more oxygen and taking more Co2 from Environment. And each smart city have specialty of different field sports, culture, science ,disaster management ,skill development etc
the government should delegate technology in reducing its work load for collecting utility payments through public private partnership, for example a person has to travel 2-5kms to pay his utility bills from his place. the govt can have its own payment terminals in association with small vendors or if the govt allows licences to payment terminals to collect utility like oxicash pos to collect all kinds of utility bills this will serve great purpose and reduce inconvenience for common man.
Its duty of every citizen to do their surrounding clean otherwise get ready for penalty. Environmental cops should be imposed to watch & for chalans on target bases job.
3- Traffic is a huge problem so in crowded areas/markets entry of vehicle shud be prohibited during peak hours(10-12pm & 5-9pm) as per local crowd. Proper paid parking for shopkeepers according to their requirement.Effective public transport, cycle on rent service.
