Land is required for development of basic public infrastructure. Compensation for current rights holders of such land must be negotiated. Also, the resulting subdivisions will thus be smaller than the original portions of land, and the parcellation exercise will mean that households do not hold the same portion of land they held originally. All of these aspects can lead to conflicts over land if not properly managed. Kigali City Master plan 2050 has its main objective of making a smart city particularly Kabuye Phase II site is rising growth trajectory requires rapidly expanding infrastructure facilities to support it with making detailed Physical planning as a key component of urban development initiatives and sets the boundaries that will help to have Access to affordable infrastructure services for consumption purposes serves to improve household welfare through resident initiative. The detailed topographic survey of the area was undertaken. Secondary data was obtained from the District level and other stakeholders. The Kigali City master plan provides useful information while the Google Earth Pro platform proved beneficial. Existing parcels were 2125 Parcels with informal planning having area of 156ha. The new plot and different land use have proposed as Residential with 1902 new plots, off-core commercial, Road, Pathway and 1252 Parcels have remained as Existing one but arranged referring to the planning and total cost of priorities activities within the site is 1,430,661,116Frw. Each plot will be contribute land at 23.84% and financial contribution in order to finalize this project will be 632,924frw by new one plot to be developed and 181,182frw/previously permitted and previously constructed plot. However, there are still some serious concerns evident in the newly readjusted area. These should be viewed as recommendations to be taken into account by future project implementers and partners, particularly the local government units overseeing the project sites. The most important emerging issues are the growing income disparity with the exclusion of the poorest from the development process.
