To develop county economy, we should promote both industrialization and urbanization. In recent years, according to the county situation, policy makers in Shuyang have changed the development mode of urbanization, insisted on taking the county construction as the leading factor, comprehensively improved the level of urban and rural construction from the connotation and extension, and embarked on a more county-specific urbanization road.
First, the main practices
In recent years, Shuyang insists on taking the county as the leader, coordinating urban and rural development, stimulating the rise of county economy, and keeping a close eye on the goal of "building the largest and most beautiful county in Jiangbei and accelerating the construction of a modern medium-sized city". In a few years, an old city was completely transformed, a new city was built together, and an industrial city rose rapidly. The size of the city has more than doubled, the supporting area of infrastructure has expanded to 5 1 square kilometer, and the urban resident population has increased to 350,000. The main methods are as follows:
1. Give full play to the leading role of urban planning. First, the integrity of the planning should be highlighted, and the old city, new city, development zone, three communities and Zhaxia town should be included in the overall urban planning to ensure that the overall urban planning covers "three districts and four points". The second is to emphasize the advance of planning, aim at the planning standards of large and medium-sized cities at home and abroad, abandon the vision of small towns and counties, and emphasize the generosity, boldness, high standards and high taste of planning and layout. The third is to ensure the seriousness of planning, implement the system of planning supervision, dynamic inspection and whole process tracking, and regularly carry out the activities of "looking back" and "commenting" on urban planning to guide developers to pay attention to the external image design of buildings and ensure the rationality of the internal structure of buildings. The fourth is to highlight the democracy of planning, set up a publicity column for planning results, and implement a system of planning hearing and publicity. The county also invested more than 3 million yuan to build a first-class urban planning exhibition hall in northern Jiangsu, which fully demonstrated the bright future of Shuyang County.
2. Fully gather the strong synergy of urban construction. By strengthening the functions of "leverage", "brine" and "yeast" of government investment, and relying on basic and functional investment projects, Shuyang incited private capital to participate in urban construction, thus realizing the guiding role of "small government investment incites market factors". At the same time, lower the threshold for all kinds of capital to enter the field of urban construction and attract social capital to participate in urban construction in various ways. Since 2003, the completed area of urban real estate has exceeded 750,000 square meters every year. At present, there are 72 enterprises engaged in real estate development in Shuyang. Since the beginning of this year, the newly-built commercial and residential buildings have completed 1.22 million square meters, are under construction for 3 1.5 million square meters, and will start construction for 4.2 million square meters soon. 96 high-rise commercial and residential buildings have been built, 654.38+0.23 buildings are under construction, and 265.438+0 buildings will be started soon. Urban development and construction has always maintained a "fiery" trend and rising momentum.
3. Pay attention to maintaining the development potential of urban construction. Focusing on leading the county's scientific development, Shuyang has carried out the "low housing price strategy" in depth, and comprehensively used the "invisible hand" of the market and the "visible hand" of the government to ensure that the housing price in the urban area is always at the lowest level in the province, which not only solves the problem of "posts" and "beds" of the masses, but also retains the long-term development ability, accumulates the sustainable development potential, and has embarked on a road of promoting large demand with low housing prices and promoting large development with large demand.
4. Accelerate the upgrading of urban construction quality. Shuyang firmly adheres to the concept of "three essences" of fine products, insists on "building houses without demolition", and implements "four prohibitions" in both old city reconstruction projects and new urban projects, that is, it is forbidden to pull walls, build communication rooms, install security window and engage in scattered ancillary facilities, so as to fully promote the city to show its modern atmosphere in its growth, height and beauty. At present, there are 430 12-story buildings in urban planning, and 96 buildings have been completed or capped, which indicates that the urban construction of Shuyang has entered the "high-rise era" ahead of schedule.
5. Continuously enhance the comprehensive supporting functions of the city. Shuyang insists on giving secondary production treatment to large-scale tertiary industry projects and manufacturing treatment to large-scale service industry projects. Europe-China Plaza, Zhejiang Mall, Hua Mu World, China Resources Su Guo, Times Supermarket and other large-scale commercial facilities have been put into operation. Four large-scale comprehensive market groups with a total investment of 654.38+04 billion yuan and a total construction area of 800,000 square meters have begun to take shape. At the same time, the administrative center, cultural and artistic center, library, river water plant, pipeline gas and other functional projects will be put into operation, and supporting projects such as thermal power plant, sewage treatment plant and domestic leading garbage treatment plant will be completed and used soon. All the main roads in the city have no telegraph poles, and taxis have been upgraded to enhance the carrying capacity of urban population and industrial agglomeration.
6, vigorously improve the level of urban greening and lighting. Adhere to greening and lighting as an important infrastructure project in the city, as a practical project with low cost and quick results, as an environmental beautification project to improve the living environment and enhance the city's taste, and implement the "greening" and "lighting" projects with great fanfare. Investment in urban greening and lighting is increasing year by year. There are 38 public green spaces with an area of more than 3 mu in the city, with an urban greening rate of over 45% and a per capita green space area of over 6,544.
Second, the basic experience
The success of urban construction in Shuyang mainly benefits from the accurate positioning of urban development goals, the strong leadership of urban construction organizations, the high flexibility of urban construction policies and the strong execution of urban construction cadres, which are mainly reflected in the "four persistences":
1. Land development adheres to intensive development. First, gather urban development funds and do a good job of "selling land". Since 2005, * * * has been listed on the 106 plot, covering an area of 5,580 mu, with a contract turnover of 1 100 million yuan, and the land transfer fee of 220 million yuan has been recovered, providing financial support for urban construction, industrial park construction and improving the quality of urban construction. The second is to enlarge the scale of Shucheng construction and do a good job of "land supply". By coordinating with the relevant departments of the province to adjust the overall land planning, the adjusted area reached more than 6,500 mu, thus ensuring the demand for urban construction land. The third is to pay close attention to land reclamation and development and do a good job of "land reclamation". In the past three years, 32,744 mu of cultivated land has been reclaimed, which has gathered land resources for the sustainable development of the city.
2. Adhere to "releasing water to raise fish" in investment policy. First, tax concessions are given to the development of residential and commercial buildings. Tax: business tax is levied at 5% of sales revenue; Urban maintenance and construction tax shall be rewarded at 60% of the collection standard; The local retained portion of individual income tax and enterprise income tax will be rewarded at 60%. Expenses: Four expenses, including infrastructure supporting expenses, education surcharge, new wall renovation expenses and termite control expenses, are levied according to 30 yuan/m2. All kinds of service charges are charged according to the lower limit of the prescribed standards. The second is to increase the proportion of preferential rewards for landmark projects. All non-residential real estate development projects with a floor height above the ground of 12 or a single building area of over 20,000 square meters or a construction investment scale of over 35 million yuan are listed as landmark projects. Tax: Business tax is levied at 5% of sales revenue and rewarded at 20% of the levy standard; Urban maintenance and construction tax shall be rewarded at 60% of the collection standard; The local retained portion of enterprise income tax and individual income tax will be rewarded at 60%. Expenses: four expenses, namely, infrastructure supporting expenses, education surcharge, new wall renovation expenses and termite control expenses, are levied at 18 yuan/m2. All kinds of service charges are charged according to the lower limit of the prescribed standards. The third is to give preferential treatment to enterprise income tax, business tax and deed tax for investment in catering services, cultural entertainment and tourism facilities. If the investment in fixed assets is more than RMB100000, 50% of the local retained part of the enterprise income tax collected within 5 years will be awarded to the enterprise. If the annual turnover is more than 20 million yuan, the business tax levied by the enterprise will be rewarded at 50% within 5 years from the date of operation.
3. Insist on benefiting the people in the housing price strategy. Before the demolition, the government used the compensation for demolition, county financial subsidies and credit funds to take measures such as allocating land free of charge, reducing the supporting fees of municipal public infrastructure and exempting construction fees, so as to minimize the construction cost of resettlement communities and effectively benefit the people. In the process of demolition, the compensation standard is acceptable to the relocated households, and the compensation is not discounted and is in place in time. If the relocated households are unwilling to buy resettlement houses, the relocation office is responsible for helping the relocated households find temporary housing or help negotiate housing rents. The average price of resettlement houses per square meter is 800 yuan, which is only half of the market price of commercial housing. For the poor households among the relocated households, the government provides low-rent housing, which is rent-free for 10 years and can be purchased at the original price after 10 years. At the same time, the county has implemented the strategy of low housing prices by reducing fees and other measures, so that the average housing price is kept at around 1.500 yuan/square meter, which is always lower than the surrounding area by more than 30%, so that ordinary people can buy affordable housing at any time.
4, insist on unpacking to people. Demolition work is known as "the most difficult in the world", and it was also in Shuyang County in 2006. One hundred people went to Beijing to petition, but the Shuyang county government soon properly handled the thorny contradiction between demolition and urban construction. In addition to the government's low housing price strategy, universal benefit and scientific resettlement, a very important reason is that Shuyang County has created a very effective reward and punishment mechanism to ensure the implementation of demolition. That is to say, within the county, the boundaries between regions and departments should be broken, and the combination of self-recommendation and selection should be adopted. The departments should organize public elections, deploy 50 cadres to form 50 working groups, sign a letter of responsibility for demolition protection, and realize the responsibility of demolition protection to people. At the same time, strict rewards and punishments will be given, and those completed in advance will be rewarded, promoted and reused, and those unfinished tasks will be criticized and returned to the original work unit. Through hard and meticulous work, more than 98% of the cadres have completed the demolition guarantee task ahead of time or on schedule.
III. Countermeasures and Suggestions
In recent years, remarkable achievements have been made in urban construction in our region. Since 2006, 92 urban construction projects have been started with a total investment of 654.38+04.2 billion yuan. By the end of 2007, the investment in urban construction was 5.03 billion yuan, and 65.438+0.2 million square meters of houses were demolished. Great changes have taken place in the city. However, compared with neighboring cities, there are still some gaps, and the biggest gap is the backward concept. To learn from their advanced experience, the most fundamental thing is to boldly emancipate the mind, innovate the concept of construction, persist in grasping urban construction in emancipating the mind, and promote the great development of urban construction with great ideological emancipation.
1. Establish the concept that grasping urban construction means grasping development, and bring urban construction into the category of economic development. In recent years, the rapid development of urban construction in Shuyang County has not only promoted the development of local construction industry, increased local fiscal revenue, effectively transferred rural surplus labor force and increased farmers' income, but also promoted the development of tertiary industry and service industry. We should persist in emancipating our minds, look at urban construction from a developmental perspective, focus on the long term, base ourselves on the present, regard urban construction as an important part of economic construction, and take the pace of urbanization as the direct driving force of economic development to creatively promote urban construction.
2. Establish the concept of managing the city and break the bottleneck of urban construction. The investment in urban construction is large, where does the money come from? The successful experience of Shuyang County is that "big investment comes from living management", and land is used as the largest capital to manage, and the strategy of developing new urban areas into pieces is vigorously implemented, taking the road of urban construction of "making money by land, leading the way by housing and promoting construction by road". As the main city of Taizhou, our district has a small development carrier and limited financial resources. It is even more necessary to adhere to the road of managing cities, open up various financing channels, and effectively solve the problem of insufficient investment in cities. We should adhere to the concept of moderate debt, give full play to the role of Hailing Asset Management Company and Haicheng Guarantee Company as investment and financing carriers and operating platforms, and revitalize, store and operate operating land and idle assets in the region. It is necessary to strengthen contact and cooperation with financial institutions, strive for more bank financing, consolidate and expand the cooperative relationship with commercial banks, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results. Do a good job in the packaging of urban construction projects, increase investment attraction, and attract domestic and foreign merchants to participate in urban construction in our region with the reputation of registered capital and state-owned assets management companies in accordance with the requirements of "recruiting big capital, attracting big businessmen and attracting excellent businessmen".
3. Establish the concept of highlighting individuality and carefully build a characteristic city. Shuyang county is known as the flower town, and their development goal is to be the largest and most beautiful county in northern Jiangsu, a modern medium-sized city with the characteristics of "beauty". For the urban construction in our region, we should also pay attention to the cultivation of urban characteristics and personality, and expand the visibility and reputation of the city. We should not only pay attention to the expansion of urban construction, but also pay attention to the improvement of urban development quality, constantly improve urban functions, enhance urban connotation and enhance the "soft power" of development; We should not only pay attention to the integration of cities into modern elements, but also pay attention to the inheritance of urban history and culture. Hailing is an ancient city with a long history and culture. In urban construction, we should pay attention to highlighting the profound historical and cultural heritage, and at the same time further explore and integrate the humanistic landscape of Hailing, and combine local characteristic culture and historical heritage with urban construction to enrich the urban landscape, improve the urban taste and shape the urban characteristics.
4. Establish a people-oriented concept and take the road of sustainable urban construction. Saving and intensive use of resources and taking the road of sustainable development should not only pay attention to today's development and construction, but also leave room for sustainable development for future generations. At present, Hailing has entered a new period of rapid development. In urban planning, we should plan ahead and enhance the awareness of saving. Efforts should be made to solve the hot and difficult problems that are closely related to the vital interests of the masses and are most concerned by the masses, and we must persist in relying on the masses to build cities and build cities for the people; Highlight ecological construction, improve urban green coverage rate and per capita green space rate, and strive to build an environment where man and nature live in harmony; Rationally adjust the nature of urban land use, accelerate the "retreat from two to three" of urban industries, actively create conditions to shut down and transfer polluting enterprises in urban areas, and optimize the layout of urban industries; It is necessary to speed up the implementation of resettlement houses, affordable housing and low-rent housing construction, establish a multi-level housing security system, let low-income families live in low-rent housing, let low-income families live in affordable housing, and let new employees live in affordable housing; Insist on resettlement before demolition, strive to achieve "zero transition", effectively protect the interests of the masses, relieve the worries of the relocated households, and create a harmonious development environment for accelerating urban construction.
