Karnataka Municipal Corporation Act 1976

STATEMENTS OF OBJECTS AND REASONS I
Act 14 of 1977.- The City of Bangalore Municipal Corporation established under
the City of Bangalore Municipal Corporation Act, 1949 and the Hubli-Dharwar
Municipal Corporation functioning under the Bombay Provincial Municipal
Corporations Act, 1949 as in force in the Balgaum Area are the two municipal
corporations in the State. It is considered necessary that there should be a single
enactment governing municipal corporations in the State. This will also enable the
establishment of municipal corporations in other cities. Opportunity has been taken
to make provision for certain matters which are found necessary as a result of the
experience gained in the functioning of the existing municipal corporations.
The main features of this Bill are,-
(i) creation of municipal authorities, namely:- the corporation, three standing
committees and the commissioner;
(ii) conferring certain powers on the mayor and the deputy mayor;
(iii) specifying the obligatory and discriminatory functions of the corporation;
(iv) strengthening the administrative machinery of the corporation in result of
administration, account and audit;
(v) employment of officers and staff drawn from the Karnataka Municipal
Administrative Service which will enable mobility of the staff as between local
authorities;
(vii) provision for payment of honoraria, allowances and fees to the mayor, the
deputy mayor and the councillors.
The various other provisions of the Bill generally follow the provisions of the
enactments now in force relating to the municipal corporations

Amending Act 24 of 1978.- (As appended to at the time of introduction of the Bill)
The Act provides for the reservation of the seats for labourers of Industrial
Establishments located within the city. Since labourers are scattered throughout the
City, it is not practicable to fix up a suitable division for them. Hence it is proposed
to omit the provisions relating to reservation of seats for labourers. It is proposed to
divide the City into single member divisions. A voter of any division in the City is
being made eligible to consent from any other division.
The Corporation has to obtain the previous sanction of the Government to
create any new office whose maximum monthly salary exceeds three hundred and
fifty rupees. In view of the revision of pay scale it is proposed to enhance this limit to
nine hundred rupees.
It is proposed to make the Government liable to pay taxes in respect of
premises belonging to it if such premises are rented out by the Government. There
will be no tax in respect of similar premises belonging to the Corporation.
Section 503 and 506 are proposed to be amended to continue the
Administrators of other officers appointed under the repealed enactments and to
validate the action taken by them.

Amending Act 11 of 1979.- It is considered necessary to reduce the period for
filing objections and suggestions to a notification to alter the limits of a city from
three months to one month. Since the Legislative Assembly was not in session, an
Ordinance was promulgated and this Bill seeks to replace the said Ordinance.
(Obtained from L.A. Bill No. 3 of 1979)

Amending Act 21 of 1979.- In order to augment the revenues of the State it is
proposed to second taxation and other laws. Opportunity is taken to make some
other amendments also.
Hence this Bill. (Published in the Karnataka Gazette (Extraordinary) Part IV-2A dated 27-3-
1979 as No. 259).

Amending Act 28 of 1980.- Section 3 of the Karnataka Municipal Corporations
Act, 1976 provided for declaring a local area having a local authority whose annual
income was not less than one crore of rupees and having a population of not less
than 2 lakhs as a City and to establish for City a Corporation.
There was no provision to declare a local area having more than one local
authority whose total annual income was not less than one crore of rupees and
whose population was not less than 2 lakhs as a city under the Act. Difficulty
therefore arose while declaring the former Belgaum City and Mangalore City and
their surrounding areas having several other local authorities as cities under the Act.
This Bill provides for meeting the above difficulty by amending section 3 of the Act
