Abstract

In Ukraine, the system of planning the development of territorial communities at the basic level is being modernized. In particular, the preparation of a comprehensive spatial plan for the development of the territory of the territorial community has been introduced as a new tool for territory planning at the local level. The concept of integrated development of the territorial community recommended for development is considered as a means of forming initial data for the development of planning decisions. Its preparation involves broad public involvement in the planning process. The authors of the article became the developers of the concept of integrated development of the Sahuniv territorial community of the Cherkasy region of the Cherkasy district. The main questions that this article aims to answer are the following: what is the experience of developing such documents, what are the basic principles of their preparation, and what is the practical significance of the document. For this purpose, we analyze the approaches to understanding integrated development as a phenomenon, the content of its strategic planning at the local level, the place of the concept of integrated development of the territorial community in the planning system at the local level and its influence on local economic development. The article critically examines the essence and procedure of participatory strategic planning at the local level. Based on the case of the concept of integrated development of the Sahuniv territorial community, the logic of the planning process and the practice of preparing initial data for comprehensive planning of the territory of the territorial community are reflected. The importance of the document for the formation of stakeholder interaction, the involvement of the population in the management decision-making system through planning tools, the coordination of the development of individual components of the local development system, and the identification of territorial elements of integrated community development is reflected. Thus, the article defines the formation of the strategic planning system at the local level in Ukraine as a response to the change of the administrative-territorial structure in 2015-2020 and the deployment of the decentralization reform in Ukraine, and its role for the local economic development and the territorial community of the basic level as a whole, coordination of strategic planning processes for the development of territorial communities and territory development planning.
