Task of rebuilding Haiti expected to be ambitious, arduous - CNN.com:


The plans include reducing the size of Port au Prince, making parks and planting trees, and of course making safer buildings.

"...first stage of the reconstruction will be cleaning up the debris of the thousands of collapsed buildings. The United Nations has proposed a 'cash for debris' program, which will compensate citizens for collecting recyclable items like iron sheets and wood.

The preliminary plan must be finalized and approved by the Haitian Council of Ministers, which includes President Rene Preval. It is scheduled to go before the council the week of February 7."
