Population growth in urban Ecuador has averaged 5% yearly since 1974 and is expected to continue at a high rate. Ecuador's capacity to handle this growth is assessed in this report. Chapter I describes the current macroeconomic and demographic setting, while Chapter II discusses trends in urban growth, economic development, and employment. Shelter and infrastructure facilities are assessed in Chapter III, along with a discussion of housing finance issues. Chapters IV and V describe the institutions responsible for urban planning and development and the status of municipal finances. Chapter VI provides projections for future needs in infrastructure, employment, and investment financing, while Chapter VII outlines an urban development strategy for the 1990's. According to the report, urban services have not kept pace with population growth. For example, both water and sewerage coverage in Guayaquil have decreased since 1982. Moreover, urban unemployment has been rapidly increasing. Major goals of the proposed development plan are to: (1) increase municipal revenues to make up for losses due to decreasing oil prices and improve the financial planning and management capabilities
