New Construction Laws

Abstract

The new Construction Act became the object of interest of many lawyers and representatives of towns and municipalities. Despite many amendments, the original Construction Act is outdated, cumbersome and inflexible, and along with it, the Act on Spatial Planning and Amendments to certain Acts is changing. Thanks to the introduction of the Urbion information system, the issuance of construction permits will be speeded up and facilitated, and 13 of the 84 actions required to issue a building permit should remain. It interferes with the competences of municipalities, and even reduces their decision-making on their own spatial development. The contribution is devoted to the legislative changes in question and, in addition to the approximation of the functioning of the new Urbion information system, it also presents the opinions and attitudes of representatives of towns and municipalities in relation to spatial development and spatial planning.
