Public participation in the planning procedure in the jurisprudence of administrative courts

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to indicate the principles of public participation in the planning procedure developed in the jurisprudence of administrative courts. The result of the research brings the conclusion that the institutions of the applications and comments to the plan should be treated as the instruments enabling, although not guaranteeing, the entities concerned to obtain the most favorable conditions for the development of their real estate. Lack of appropriate activity of interested entities enables the authorities to obtain the right to determine the needs of spatial development for a given area.
