“…From the environmental point of view, the creation of the four federal laws was positive, giving visibility to urban environmental issues (Brasil, 1981(Brasil, , 2001(Brasil, , 2007, but unfortunately there were no effective actions to protect the green areas in cities (Haddad, 2015;Huang et al, 2018;Leonelli & Campos, 2018;Figueiroa & Scherer, 2016). Nowadays, the inefficiency of federal laws in establishing norms for urban zoning is easily perceived by analyzing the Brazilian capitals Master Plans (Table 1).…”

“…As a result, municipal laws related to urban zoning are often not complementary to federal legislation, and can create ineffective legislation curbing the planning and management of urban zoning (Rech, 2013). The inefficiency of current public policies related to zoning allows economic and social interests that are not always compatible with environmental conservation to have greater decision-making power, causing severe damage to it (Leonelli & Campos, 2018;Rech, 2013).…”

Politicians and environmental professionals have pointed to the lack of scientific knowledge to support legislation for planning urban centers. Thus, this essay aims to provide ecological knowledge to assist politicians and environmental professionals in decision making regarding the Brazilian urban zoning. As a science, ecology provides the necessary knowledge to assist the creation of guidelines and standards for urban zoning. Specifically, landscape ecology shows different methods of work, which have as parameters the qualification and quantification of urban environments. These parameters can be used as criteria for planning sustainable cities. The field of urban ecology has demonstrated the importance of conserving green and blue areas (water bodies) in cities, as well as the need for the formation of multidisciplinary teams for urban management and elaboration of public policies pointed to zoning sustainability strategies. Generally, ecology show contributions that assist in the creation of guidelines and norms for Brazilian urban zoning. The suggestions provided through this essay are a starting point for improving the formulation of laws designed to develop and strengthen the legislation on Brazilian urban zoning.

“…Para Leonelli & Campos (2018), no Brasil, o crescimento das cidades regula-se por ações públicas e privadas, mas especificamente pela legislação urbana, pelos gestores públicos e pelo mercado imobiliário. Dentro do processo de expansão das cidades, considera-se como ideal que o planejamento municipal induza o mercado imobiliário a atuar de maneira consoante com as demandas coletivas, de tal maneira a seguir diretrizes urbanas que abordam a cidade como um todo, ao invés de áreas específicas.…”

Resumo O processo de verticalização das cidades produz impactos que beneficiam ou prejudicam a qualidade do espaço urbano, sendo assim, analisar os seus desdobramentos constitui uma ferramenta no planejamento das cidades. O objetivo do estudo foi analisar o processo de verticalização no eixo estruturador da cidade de Passo Fundo, no norte do Rio Grande do Sul. O estudo compreendeu a análise de um trecho de 7,62km, sendo os levantamentos in loco realizados em duas etapas, a primeira em 2013 e a segunda em 2018. Os dados coletados são referentes ao gabarito de altura e à presença ou ausência de recuos prediais nas edificações. Os levantamentos apontaram o crescimento no número de edificações, em especial as edificações com mais de 13 pavimentos, cerca de 78%; também foi apontado o crescimento de 17% das edificações com recuos frontais e/ou laterais, em relação ao primeiro levantamento. A Avenida Brasil segue sua tendência histórica de verticalização, induzida pelos instrumentos de planejamento e pelo setor imobiliário, ao substituir tipologias de gabarito baixo e sem recuos por gabaritos altos com presença de recuos, mantendo a característica comercial e retomando a característica residencial através de edificações de uso misto, contribuindo assim com a criação de uma cidade compacta.

“…Another characteristic of the urban expansion in Brazilian cities is their high proportion of vacant land, which has many researchers and urban planners concerned (see Leonelli and Campos, 2018;Miranda, 2002;and Campinas, 2016 specifically regarding the case of Campinas). IPEA (2001) noted that Brazil underwent decades of high inflation, and as a result, land is commonly used as a value reserve in the country, which in turn induces land speculation.…”

“…These exceptions were created especially after Federal Law nº 6766/1979, which prohibited the use of lots in rural areas for urban purposes. Leonelli and Campos (2018) also stressed that the regulations on urban expansion in Campinas are excessively flexible and frequently contradict the directives of the city's Master Plan.…”

The environmental impacts of urban expansion

Brazilian urbanization in the 20th century was characterized by rapid demographic growth. One of the primary consequences of this growth was accelerated urban expansion in the country, marked by intense land occupation in the urban peripheries and low density developments and discontinuities of the urban fabric of cities. Such a pattern of expansion raises concerns regarding its social and environmental consequences. Given this context, the general purpose of this dissertation is to discuss the impacts of urban expansion in Brazil on the local environmentparticularly regarding land consumption for urban development-and to identify the role of local policies in managing this urban expansion. More specifically, this dissertation discusses the following questions: how divergent has the spatial urban expansion in Brazilian cities been compared to what has been observed in other developing and developed countries? What are the factors that explain the differences? What has been the contribution of each socioeconomic group (low-, medium-, and high-income classes) to the expansion of the built-up areas in Brazilian cities? How have public policies affected urban expansion, and what are the lessons that can be learned from international experiences? To answer these questions, this dissertation first presents an overview of the dynamics, causes, and consequences of urban expansion in developing and developed countries, based on a review of literature. This is next followed by a review of land use regulations for managing spatial urban expansion in a select country: the United States. The focus of this more detailed review is to evaluate the effectiveness of policies and regulations in managing the spatial urban expansion adopted in this country, frequently referred to as "smart growth policies". Next, we develop an overview for future urbanization in Brazil, focusing on the factors that have shaped patterns of urban expansion in the country-namely, peripherization and informal settlements, the role of housing policies, and land use regulation. Finally, we employ basic statistics and cluster analyses to discuss the socioeconomic factors of the urban expansion that occurred between 1975 and 2014 in the city of Campinas (state of Sao Paulo, Brazil). We conclude that built-up area per capita in Brazil does not differ extensively from other cities in developing countries, but it is below the high-income countries. Among the factors that explain the differences are income, available area for development, presence of informal settlements, land use regulations and housing policies. In Campinas, our study case, despite the advancement of gated communities targeting high-income families, most of the growth of the built-up area of this city in the last four decades has been due to the expansion of low-income housing.
