Developing a harmonious and modern-oriented infrastructure stands as one of the three breakthrough stages aimed at fostering socio-economic development, ensuring national defence and security, and contributing to transforming Lac Thuy into a relatively developed district with sustainable and inclusive growth.
Over the recent past, Lac Thuy district has focused on improving urban and rural planning and development. This strategy aims to promote urbanisation while simultaneously creating new, modern rural areas that preserve cultural heritage and leverage local strengths.
The urban planning of Chi Ne town, Lac Thuy district, has been adjusted and expanded with a scale of 1/2000 until 2030, with a vision extending to 2035.
Lac Thuy has achieved substantial progress in planning initiatives. With a total budget of over 17 billion VND (716,000 USD), 21 planning schemes have been completed, including the district's construction plan to 2040, adjustments to the general planning of Chi Ne and Ba Hang Doi towns with a scale of 1/2000 until 2030, with a vision extending to 2035, and master plans for several communes of Phu Nghia, Thong Nhat, Yen Bong, Khoan Du, Dong Tam, Hung Thi, Phu Thanh, and An Binh until 2025, with a vision to 2030, at a scale of 1/10,000.
The comprehensive planning approach provides a clear direction for socio-economic development at both the provincial and district levels. It also streamlines land management and construction order at the commune and district levels, following a comprehensive and effective approach.
The planning process adheres to clear guidelines. The district People's Committee oversees the planning of town adjustments, submitting proposals to the Department of Construction for evaluation and final approval by the provincial People's Committee. For detailed construction plans and commune master plans, the district Economic and Infrastructure Division leads the appraisal and advisory process, seeking input from the Department of Construction before submitting them to the district People's Committee for approval.
Public transparency is maintained through the announcement of planning information by the district People's Committee, communes, and towns. Additionally, boundary demarcation based on the approved plans is ongoing, with regular reviews and adjustments to ensure continued effectiveness. Land management and use strictly adhere to the Planning Law and Land Law, and the development of urban infrastructure and underground spaces follows the approved schemes.
