Abstract

A widespread model for urban systems development description in the form frame and fabric was proposed by the Soviet urban planner Gutnov A. E. as an alternative to a functional approach, used to control the territory development. While developing the model, Gutnov posed the problem of the transition from a functional description of the destination area to description of the intensity of the processes occurring in the territory. This article develops and deepens the approach based on the study of the intensity of the processes occurring in the territory by means of land use and development rules. The research method as before consists of the following steps: a uniform grid covers the researched area (city). Then a frequency histogram is created for the researched attribute. Then, based on the histogram, contour line maps of the researched attribute are created. This paper takes the following as the researched attributes: 1) t he share of residential and recreational zones in relation to the total number of urban land use zones falling within the grid cell; 2) The share of restrictions on use of residential and recreational zones in relation to the total number of restrictions on use forth in the urban planning regulations all land use zones falling into the grid cells. Eight cities of Russia were analysed and provided with created contour line maps. Based on the analysis, average quantitative characteristics for the researched attributes are set. It was found that the entire considered sample is divided into two groups: the cities with a single spatial axis with respect to which residential and recreational areas are further grouped, and the cities with no single direction. Meaningful interpretation of this observation is provided.

  • Land use and development rules are incorporated into the Urban Planning Code’2004

  • Urban zoning and regulation of the settlements territory development, which principles are provided by the Rules, govern the ability to transform the environment, engaging all the stakeholders in the process, and, ability to restructuring the entire urban system under the influence of goal-setting by the free enterprising

  • E., posed the problem of the transition from the description based on the functional approach to the description of a new type, namely to description of the territory development intensity as a reflection of the maturity and level of urban planning system development

Summary

Introduction

Land use and development rules are incorporated into the Urban Planning Code’2004. They govern the regulation procedures of land use and development for the settlement territory by the local authorities and urban zoning procedures. Urban zoning and regulation of the settlements territory development, which principles are provided by the Rules, govern the ability to transform the environment, engaging all the stakeholders in the process, and, ability to restructuring the entire urban system under the influence of goal-setting by the free enterprising. In this regard, it is necessary to research the new possibilities and features of the urban systems formation and the theoretical description of urban development processes due to the use of Land use and development rules (LUDR). It is a question of establishing relationships in the form of
