Notes from Open Meeting Dec 13

Placeholder post for notes from Saturday's meeting. All those who attended are encouraged to write some.

Why are our cities suffering?

My take on why local level governance in cities like Bangalore and Mumbai are suffering while thriving in cities like New Delhi and to a lesser extent, Chennai.

Any good city needs local governance. This means having a strong mayor council in place and using revenues generated by the city to a substantial extent for the city's needs.
