Matt Edgar does a good job of making a start on what he thinks the design principles for a city is (he's particularly thinking of Leeds, but we already share a canal so...) - http://blog.mattedgar.com/2015/11/17/design-principles-for-an-enterprising-city/

And there are lots of good ideas and initiatives in http://nycroadmap.us/

Richard Pope has also listed some government-as-a-platform skewed rules that might also be good food for thought at http://blog.memespring.co.uk/2015/11/12/10-rules/

We should make a start on a set of design principles for a digital Liverpool.

https://medium.com/hub-engine/designing-our-city-futures-af9445ddf689#.albnjh6hp doesn't contain design principles as such, but is good additional reading

https://brainwane.dreamwidth.org/76629.html is good on community-building, particularly for the paragraph on hospitality - "The first responsibility of every citizen is to help each other achieve our goals, and make each other happy."

http://amsterdamalternative.nl/articles/1890 is a well thought-out critique of tech-solves-all (and more) in the city context. Some of the Fair City ideas might translate well into the design principles..
