Hey !!

Here is your answer dear

Public facilities are the facilities that are provided to the people by government. They are important to sustain and lead a comfortable life. For example, water facility and transport. Without these, it would be difficult for the people to lead a comfortable life.

Public facilities are those facilities which are not possible for any individual to access at economic cost, so government provides such facilities to the public to ensure quality of life and for development of the country.

Four major facilities given by government are as follows

(i) Basic Education Government provides school and allied educational facilities like playground furnitures of the school etc which are enjoyed by all.

(ii) Basic Health Facilities Government provides hospitals, vaccine programmes to maintain basic quality of life.

(iii) Law and Order Facility/Security Government provides police outposts, police stations for maintaining security of the public and it also protects the interest of its citizens by the state laws.

(iv) Public Distribution System Government opens PDS shops or ration shops through which basic food items like rice grain, wheat, pulses etc. are distributed at subsidised rate to the lower income group or poor people. Functioning of these facilities are dependent on the community awareness and public cooperation.

Public facility means (i) any airport; marine port; rail, subway, bus or other transit stop, station or terminal; stadium; convention center; or military camp, fort, post or base or (ii) any other facility owned or operated by any nation or government or political subdivision thereof, or agency, authority or other instrumentality of any thereof, or other entity exercising regulatory, administrative or other functions of or pertaining to government, or any organization of nations (including the United Nations, the European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization).

Public facility means a street, plaza, pedestrian mall, and any improvements to a street, plaza, or pedestrian mall including street furniture and beautification, sidewalk, trail, lighting, traffic flow modification, park, parking facility, recreational facility, right-of-way, structure, waterway, bridge, lake, pond, canal, utility line or pipe, transit-oriented development, transit-oriented facility, or building, including access routes, that are either designed and dedicated to use by the public generally or used by a public agency, or that are located in a qualified development area and are for the benefit of or for the protection of the health, welfare, or safety of the public generally, whether or not used by 1 or more business entities, provided that any road, street, or bridge shall be continuously open to public access and that other property shall be located in public easements or rights-of-way and designed to accommodate foreseeable development of public facilities in adjoining areas.
