AB  - The objective of this paper is to show that one of the possible approaches to get smart town is communal
companies merging, because such venture improves municipal budget. This paper presents a case study of a
new public communal company of Kikinda Town in Serbia. Following Kikinda Municipality description,
previous five communal companies and the new one are briefly presented. Five public communal companies
duties are merged into the duty of one compound public company named Public Company "Kikinda" (PC
