ATTITUDES OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT AUTHORITIES TOWARDS A NEIGHBOURING TOWN
Journal Title: Miscellanea Geographica - Regional Studies on Development - Year 2008, Vol 13, Issue
Abstract
As a result of suburbanization, intensification of urbanization processes in suburban areas is taking place. The suburban zone is understood to be an area located in direct neighbourhood of a city or town, related to it and being systematically transformed. It is also defined as a transient area between a village and a city/town, mainly in spatial terms (mixed forms of space development and transient settlement types). The aim of this paper is to define the attitudes of suburban local government authorities towards neighbouring city/town. In order to achieve this aim, methods of analytic description, di¬rect observation, analysis of documents such as “Local development plans”, “Development Strategies”, “The study of causation and directions in spatial management” of suburban municipalities in the Kielce county were used.
