Abstract

The article is devoted to an urgent scientific and practical problem of city management modern concept formation in a context of public authority modern norms implementation. In the Russian Federation, concept and practices of public authority have been developing since the early 1990s. They received their final legalization in the early 2020s. A system of self-government is turning into the “lower floor” of state power. This political decision carries both undoubted pluses and some minuses. As a prerequisite, it is assumed that the population influence will increase in the development of the city's development policy. It is expected not just to take into account the opinion of the citizens, but to recognize the preferences of the population as priority tasks for the activities of the authorities. The public policy of city management involves the implementation of the so-called norms of advanced development. These include: taking into account the real potential of the totality of material and social resources; orientation to the application of the most progressive, advanced methods of solving urgent problems to create favorable living conditions for citizens; use of authoritative public expertise of strategic decisions; professionalism of managers at the level of world standards; timely development and use of the best technologies for solving management problems; adequate and timely resolution of potential conflicts in the interaction of local authorities and citizens. Modern public policy of urban management is increasingly turning to the “smart city” concept. The practice of digitalization is now becoming its important component. However, now in Russia it is justified to talk about the introduction of public policy of managing a “smart city” only in relation to Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Kazan and Krasnoyarsk.
