📋 Tender Overview
A workshop was held on February 14, 2024, as part of the preparation of the professional basis for regional spatial plans (RPP). The goal of the workshop was to confront and bring together the most important development needs of regions and those responsible for spatial planning. The organizer of the workshop was the Urban Planning Institute of the Republic of Slovenia in cooperation with the companies Acer, Locus and the Ljubljana Urban Planning Institute (LUZ).
The purpose of the workshop was to encourage both regional development agencies and spatial planning bodies (NUP) to consider the key contents that must be addressed by the RPP for each region. They discussed sectoral positions and the key potentials, problems and needs of the regions.
At the workshop, the representatives of the regions consulted with the representatives of the sectors and jointly selected priority directions in the areas of settlement, landscape and economic public infrastructure for each region. The area of ??water management was particularly emphasized. In the field of resettlement, the role of settlements in the system of centers, wider urban areas, business zones, housing arrangements for young people and the deficit of land measures were prioritized. In the area of ??economic public infrastructure, water supply in regions that face drought problems in the summer months, as well as the areas of railway infrastructure, sustainable mobility and bicycle connections, were highlighted as priorities.
The conclusion of the workshop brought guidelines for further work. All participants (48 representatives of regions, ministries and their branches, as well as spatial planners) agreed that the key is the dialogue between the RDA and the NUP, the active involvement of the development departments, the setting of the priorities of the areas, taking into account the available financial resources and economic justification, the dialogue between municipalities and RRAs in the region, obtaining opinions in the municipalities of the regions and creating the missing professional bases of the sectors.
