2 Eco- City
- Eco city is a city where everyone can live in an
ecologically safe environment virtually free from
the pollution that would result in any other city
around the globe!
3- ECO-City
- Green is the main idea of our city
- Peace, a feeling from which green ideas are
contrived - Every aspect Virtually Ecologically safe
- -Businesss, and every residential area
included.(whole city effort) - A cycle to all waste, and water.
- Markets, restaurants, business, and government.
4- People wont naturally maintain the principles of
having an ecologically safe city. - There must be orderthere must be a CITY HALL.
5The Governing system
- How are people going to maintain principles of
city.
CITY HALL !
Form of government, to provide incentives for
maintenance and to keep the ongoing cycle of
ECO-city running.
6City Hall Building
- The Heart of the City
- Virtually everything cycles through ECO City Hall
- Police station also next to the city hall, to
maintain peace amongst ECO city - 2-level building

Construction as well as business bureau. -
Greenscape? Yeah Wait I need a raise.!
7- On the roof top, the essence of the cities green
ideas, there is a greenscape - Encompassed by solar panels- a provision for the
buildings energy needs. - To provide an escape for the employees of the
city hall there is a recreation area amongst the
greenscape, to relax. - A greenscape provides a way to keep the building
cooler.
8Give me all the money you have and Im happy!
- There are many costs that are included with
running a governing system such as this just like
any city. - With all the many aspects that this environmental
business oriented city hall provides it only
makes sense that the people give back with taxes.
9 - The budget for the city hall business and
planning building will come from bills paid to
and certain taxes on the services provided - Water- .01 per gallon used per home
- Waste- 1 trash can per home-35.00, per bag non
recycled 2.00, 30 off each bag with each
recycled box filled. - Electricity- Tax of 2 on each bill received by
electric co. directly to city hall. - Each Business will be taxed and charged the same.
