Urban SprawlAnd The Problems Of Changes Of Land Use On The Fringe Areas Of Towns

Abstract

Authors paid special attention to thetransformation of the use of land located in the areas characterized by urbanization pressure. They made an effort to confirm the thesis: there is a need for special procedures tomanage areas located in transition zone-landscape interface between town and country. These procedures should include set of planned activities concerning agricultural land. This issue was considered from two points of view: 1. Static view-authors analyzed the influence of town's development on areas located in the distance of its direct impact. 2. Dynamic view-authors presented procedure of making decision process concerning spatial development of this area. As the variety of units managing this space and in space is realizing various economic and social purposes, there is a need for such procedures. Otherwise, diversity of aims causes increasing chaos in spatial development of particular areas. Conflicts arise especially over arable lands located within and out the borders of towns. Detailed researches concerned the outskirts of Olsztyn-town located in northeastern part of Poland. Authors suggested 3 groups of activities in areas with agricultural functions: group I-adjusting areas to the new quality of neighborhood, group II-improving defective structures in land located directly next to urban areas, andgroup III-forced or protective activities. To solve or decrease such conflicts, open and dynamic plan of spatial development, strictly connected with rural property management activities, should be introduced. Authors presentedalgorithms of rational rural real estatemanagement. According to authors, planning land use should be more strictly connected with assessing property value. Moreover, rural real estate management tasks should be incorporated into planning procedure. Researches lead to conclusion, that effective spatial planning requires wide economic and social knowledge concerning both towns and the smallest administration units-communes located in the neighborhood.

“…In Central and Eastern Europe urban expansion has accelerated especially after legal transformation in the beginning of 90. in 20 th century. In Polish conditions the speed of converting land into urban areas in the beginning of 21 st century was at the level of around 42.5 ha per day which confirms the importance of that issue [ŹRÓBEK-RÓŻAŃSKA et al 2014]. Quantitative, qualitative, and structural changes in land use that occur in a specific period and space are referred to as urban development.…”

Land Cover Change in Hanoi: A Comparison Between Planning Cycles

“…The cause is the economic crisis and loss of jobs in urban areas. As a result, the population began to move to the suburbs (Źróbek-Różańska et al, 2014). The analysis presented above demonstrates that land competition necessitates sustainable land management (SLM), in both developed and developing nations.…”

The Effectiveness of Master Plans: Case Studies of Biologically Active Areas in Suburban Zones

“…Rapid urbanization processes can be observed in many cities around the world [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Similarly, the dynamic development of Wrocław in Poland in recent decades has strongly affected the suburban zone, with it coming under the pressure of urban sprawl [9][10][11].…”
