Legislative support of the urban planning system in ukraine

Abstract

The article is devoted to topical issues of urban development systems. Spatial planning is the basis for the development of urban systems, because it determines the prospects of socio-economic, cultural, environmental and other life processes of the population of the territories. Urban systems are a complex multifactorial concept that requires systemic regulation. Regulatory activity, first of all, belongs to the priorities of authorities at different levels, so the basics of regulating activities in the system of spatial planning are reduced to national legislation. One of the tasks identified in the study was to analyze the organizational component of the urban planning regulation system. in accordance with the analysis, the central executive bodies that directly have the authority to regulate spatial planning under current legislation of Ukraine have been identified. Territorial planning regulatory processes belong to the competence of the Ministry of Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine. This ministry is carrying out transformation processes regarding the transition from centralized territorial development to decentralization. Decentralization reform, which has been implemented in Ukraine since 2014, has broad prospects, as evidenced by the experience of leading European countries. The article presents an analysis of the regulatory framework for the decentralization of power in terms of territorial development. The transformations in the systems of urban planning and territorial planning related to the reform of decentralization of power are analyzed separately. The article systematizes the national regulatory framework for spatial planning. The expediency of introducing at the constitutional level the concept of "territorial community" as a new form of administrative system with the corresponding transformation of urban systems of newly formed communities is determined. The influence of the norms introduced into the State Standards of Ukraine on urban planning and territorial planning in the framework of socio-economic transformations aimed at ensuring the further development of territories and the urban planning system in Ukraine is determined.
