 INTRODUCTION
• NEIGHBORHOOD PLANNING- is to organize neighborhood
residents and seek their input throughout the planning
process.

OBJECTIVES OF
NEIGHBORHOOD PLANNING

• Increasing socialization

• Sharing of public amenities & recreational facilities

• Safe & healthy environment within the neighborhood

• Safety and efficiency to road users & pedestrians

• Maintain, enhance and improve areas for recreational activities

• Determining community’s prospects for future

• Fulfilling the needs and aspirations of the community

 NEPALESE HISTORY OF PLANNING

RAJBIRAJ PLANNING (1944)

• First planned settlement in Modern Nepal

• Grid sheet pattern with the central spaces
occupied by the Administrative Buildings
• Overgrowth and expanding out along
access Lines.

13 land pooling projects completed, 8 projects ongoing

 LAND DEVELOPMENT SCHEMES
1. LAND POOLING 2. GUIDED LAND DEVELOPMENT:

An urban land planning practice in which a group of landowners All the owners along its route must agree to provide land for a road. It
unite together to carry out a collective planning of their land. is the program where people’s participation is required where the

sales plots (or reserved plots) set aside for project’s cost
recovery.

They prepare a subdivision layout plan, install services and

redistribute developed plots proportionately amongst
themselves.

3. SITE AND SERVICES:

Carried out either by the government or private organization which

involves facilitating a particular area with the essential infrastructural
amenities so that private individuals or corporate bodies can carry
out developments in such areas at affordable cost.
 HOUSING AND PLOT SIZE TYPES OF HOUSING

A. PLOT SIZE AND RATIO

SUB-DIVISION:
•Blocks are subdivided with access
roads to all plots. • DETACHED HOUSING: Standalone with no shared walls.
•Open spaces are centrally located to
foster social harmony.
•Plot depth: 2.2-2.5 times the frontage
(max 3 times).
•Minimum plot size ratio: 1:2.
B. STANDARD CONTEXT
• Length: 100-200 m
• Depth: 40-80 m • SEMI- DETACHED HOUSING: Houses with one shared
• Mid-block break providing a pedestrian wall
link when blocks are over 130m

C. NATIONAL CONTEXT
• Minimum Size: 80m2
• Frontage of 6m
• Generally, plot depth will be 2.2-2.5 times of frontage and will not exceed 3 times of
frontage. • ROW HOUSING: Continuous rows with shared walls or
grouped homes with shared open spaces.
HOUSING
•Housing Allocation:68% allocated
to houses (semi-detached and row
houses).
•32% allocated to apartments
(average ground area: 800 sq. ft.
per suite) •APARTMENT: Can be walking up buildings where upper
floors are served by stairs or elevator buildings.

SEWERAGE
•Sewer lines should follow natural SEWER SIZE MANHOLES
topography to use gravity for flow

maintenance access.
•Main sewer lines are placed along streets •Typically placed at 30-50m intervals or at points

•It involves the systematic collection, Shallow manhole- less than 1m deep
conveyance, and disposal or treatment of Deep manhole-1-3m deep
sewage from residential, commercial, and

ELECTRICITY and TELECOMMUNICATION
• Electricity and telecommunications are essential in SUPPLY CHAIN
neighborhood planning because they provide the
foundation for modern living, economic development,
and sustainability.
• Reliable electricity powers homes, businesses, and
public facilities, supporting basic needs like lighting,
heating, and appliances, while enabling local industries
and innovation
