Zmiany struktury użytkowania gruntów w strefie podmiejskiej Olsztyna
Changes to the structure of land use within Olsztyn suburban area

Summary/Abstract: The spatial range of the study includes 6 communes situated within Olsztyn suburban area. In order to address spatial changes, reference was made to the drawn up, applicable Area Development Plans as well as the issued Decisions on building and land development conditions; moreover, the number and area of plots to be bought out for the purpose of the construction of the southern Olsztyn bypass were analysed. In the Official Gazettes of Warmińsko-Mazurskie Province for the years 1996-2010, 196 Area Development Plans for a part or the whole of 86 out of 200 villages (43% of the total number thereof) were published. The approximate area covered by Area Development Plans is 8594.8 ha. This accounts for 6.3% of Olsztyn suburban area. In the years 2004.2010, 5308 Decisions on building and land development conditions were issued for 146 villages (73% of the total number thereof) located within Olsztyn suburban area. Out of those, 55% (data for the years 2004-2008) concerned housing developments. It is estimated that 0.6% of the suburban area land will be developed due to the implementation of Decisions on land development conditions. Moreover, according to plans for the years 2015.2017, this process will cover 1.7% of the suburban area land in 4 communes. This is related to the construction of the southern Olsztyn bypass. In total, approx. 4.6 % of Olsztyn suburban area land either has been developed or will be developed by 2017. The areas subject to development mainly include arable land and, to a lesser extent, grassland and forests.
