The Federal Capital Commission (FCC) is a joint committee created by the Proclamation of Punta Santiago under the Federal Constituent Assembly to select the site, design, and build a new capital city for the Federation.
It is composed of representatives from the Federal Constituent Assembly, representatives of the Sapa Wechua and the Aldurian President, and two representatives from each Aldurian state and Wechua suyu.
In 1686 AN, the NFCC officially selected the Cárdenas Plan, which was to rebuild the old Alexandrian city of Cárdenas under a new urban plan. Architect Hyacinthe Betancourt submitted it, and upon its approval, he was named Chief Architect and Vice-Chair of the Commission. The Commission has established that development of the Federal Capital District shall take place in three stages:
- (1686 AN-1689 AN) Transfer of the government from Parap and Punta Santiago to Cárdenas, construction of housing, government and security facilities, and basic infrastructure;
- (1690 AN-1694 AN) Construction of parks, monuments, public transport, airport, railways, roads, highways, and other key buildings and infrastructure;
- (1695 AN-1697 AN) Create character and permanence in the capital.
Betancourt became instrumental in developing Cárdenas into a striking and dense "garden city" that represents both Aldurian and Wechua elements while restoring and keeping some of its old Alexandrian character and planning. Many of the ruins of the city were restored whenever the plan allowed for restoration.
