Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses the transitional provisions contained in the Act on Wind Energy Investments, in particular those concerning the planning acts of the municipality. The main research issue was to determine the possibility of issuing a land development decision for a residential investment in a situation where the planned investment could, hypothetically, be within the impact zone of a wind power plant, the construction of which is provided for in the local spatial development plan. The considerations were conducted against the background of the judgment of the Provincial Administrative Court in Poznan of 8 October 2020, II SA/Po 598/20.
