Abstract

The subject matter of the article is conditioned by the discourse on the necessity to codify the urban planning legislation, approve the Ukrainian Urban Planning Code, and align its provisions with the norms of related branches of the legislation.

The purpose of the study is to specify the subject matter of the Urban Development Code's regulation and the sectoral affiliation of urban development relations, to define the structure of the codified act, and to change the requirements of the Commercial Code of Ukraine.

The research methods are based on the concepts and theories that describe the current state of the problem of the current urban planning and economic legislation in Ukraine and summarize the content of scientific works to conduct a broad analysis of the codification of the urban planning legislation while taking into account the existing legal system in Ukraine.

Results. The codification of the urban planning legislation, it is argued, provides for: increased transparency and ease of use of the norm; equivalent integrated nature of spatial planning; achievement of consistency of spatial planning and development in decision-making and regulation; decentralization and limitation of discretionary powers; and optimization of governing bodies in the urban planning sphere. The structured act of the Code will solve the problems of inconsistency and uncertainty of the conceptual apparatus in the field of urban planning, inconsistency with the land, environmental, and monument protection legislation, problems of technological support of urban planning activities, procedures for spatial planning, and public control over the development and adoption of urban planning documentation, with the maximum reduction in the number of acts of the current legislation.

Conclusions. It is proposed that the subject matter of regulation of the Urban Development Code of Ukraine should include social relations arising, changing, and terminating in connection with urban development activities based on the principles of a comfortable living environment and life cycle management of construction objects
