Nowe zintegrowane planowanie w kontekście kształtowania i rozwoju terenów przemysłowych i usługowych w regionach metropolitalnych
New Integrated Planning in the Context of Shaping and Development of Industrial and Service Areas in Metropolitan Regions

Summary/Abstract: The article concerns qualitative and regional research. It is a voice in the discourse in search of the best “model of integrated planning” (socio -economic and spatial) in Poland, which would be consistent with European Union law and give the fullest opportunity to use the development potential of the metropolitan region. Regional research has been carried out by the author since 2012 and together with the research team in 2016–2017. As part of the case study, the activities undertaken at the Pomeranian Regional Planning Office in Gdańsk are presented. Among others, the methods for determining the spatial development principles used in the “Spatial Development Plan for the Gdańsk–Gdynia–Sopot Metropolitan Area 2030” and methods for delimitation of strategic areas for the development of metropolitan functions are described. Also appreciating other observed activities in voivodeship self -governments, integrating spatial planning with development policy, the author has made an attempt to identify the mechanisms of integrated planning that may affect the shaping and development of industrial and service areas. However, in the author’s opinion, without changing the legal system, all these activities will have little impact on effective, proper use of land, including for economic (industrial and service) activities. As the conclusion of the research and recommendations, the author presented the “Model of spatial planning in the integrated system of the country’s development policy” for further discussions.
