Résumé :La ville de Cotonou, capitale économique du Bénin, s’est développée au détriment des espaces verts. Or ceux-ci sont essentiels pour assurer une bonne qualité de vie et l’épanouissement des citadins. La présente recherche a pour objectif de recenser les espaces verts publics de la ville de Cotonou et d’analyser leurs modes de gestion.La méthode des itinéraires a été utilisée pour retrouver les espaces verts dont la liste a été obtenue à la Mairie de Cotonou. Pour chaque espace vert public retrouvé, il a été procédé à son géo-référencement (tracking), la détermination de sa superficie ainsi qu’à son classement.Les résultats montrent que la ville de Cotonou dispose de 70 espaces verts dont 44 sont linéaires et 26 sont polygonaux (ronds-points, jardins, squares, etc.). Les espaces verts linéaires font 63,291 km de long et ceux polygonaux ont une superficie totale de 109579,61 m2. Nonobstant leur faible importance, les espaces verts de la ville de Cotonou abritent une multitude d’espèces végétales. Il  importe  donc  que  les  autorités  municipales accordent beaucoup plus d’intérêt aux espaces verts publics (jardins, parcs, squares, etc.) dans les futurs plans de développement urbain afin d’accroitre l’esthétique de la ville.   Mots clés : Ville de Cotonou,  espaces verts, croissance urbaine, développement municipal.  AbstractThe city of Cotonou, the economic capital of Benin, has developed at the expense of green spaces. However, these are essential to ensure a good quality of life and the development of city dwellers. The objective of this research is to identify the public green spaces in the city of Cotonou and to analyze their management methods.The route method was used to find the green spaces the list of which was obtained from the Cotonou Town Hall. For each public green space found, it was geo-referenced (tracking), its area determined as well as its classification.The results show that the city of Cotonou has 70 green spaces of which 44 are linear and 26 are polygonal (roundabouts, gardens, squares, etc.). The linear green spaces are 63.291 km long and the polygonal ones have a total area of 109,579.61 m2. Notwithstanding their small importance, the green spaces of the city of Cotonou are home to a multitude of plant species. It is therefore important that municipal authorities pay much more attention to public green spaces (gardens, parks, squares, etc.) in future urban development plans in order to enhance the aesthetics of the city.Keywords: City of Cotonou, green spaces, urban growth, municipal development

Urban green spaces are essential to ensure the quality of life and the fulfillment of town-dwellers. The objective of this research is to assess the richness of public green spaces in the great Nokoué cities (AbomeyCalavi, Cotonou, Ouidah, Porto-Novo and Sèmè-Podji). The itinerary method was used to find the greens spaces whose list was obtained in the town halls. For each public green space found, the geo-referencing (tracking), the determination of the area of the public places and the measurement of the length of the tracks were made. The results revealed that the great Nokoué cities have 114 public green spaces which can be classified in four types (green Spaces of Tribes 4,39 %, Green Spaces of Pathways 13,16 %, Parks and Squares 26,32 % and Public Roads Alignment Trees 58,77 %). Cotonou is the city of the great Nokoué richest in public green spaces (61,95 %) whereas Ouidah has the highest ratio of public green spaces per inhabitant (Ouidah, 0.27 m2 /hbt, Porto-Novo, 0.18 m2 /hbt , Cotonou, 0.12 m2 /hbt Abomey-Calavi 0,06 m2 /hbt and Sèmè -Podji, 0,06 m2 /hbt ). No city of the great Nokoué has reached the ratio of 10 m2 of public green space per inhabitant as recommended by OMS. It is therefore important that urban authoritys give far greater attention to public green spaces (gardens, parks, squares, etc.) in future development plans.

ResumenEl objeto de este texto es la exposición y análisis de los procedimientos de intervención pública en el paisaje urbano de la ciudad de Madrid. El objetivo último de ese análisis es identificar el modelo público para el paisaje urbano en Madrid.  Este texto se centra en la exposición analítica de documentos oficiales antes que en sus conclusiones definitivas, por lo que le corresponde la denominación de Informe.  Este informe se organiza en dos partes: una exposición teórica que enmarca el posterior análisis de instrumentos administrativos de intervención en el paisaje.  Se concibe como parte de la investigación de Tesis Doctoral titulada “Transformación Reciente del Paisaje Comercial en el Centro Histórico”, acotada en un marco temporal de apenas diez años, marcado por la crisis y la desregulación económica, y en un marco territorial limitado al centro histórico de Madrid. Esa investigación se enmarca en una reflexión general sobre la relación entre actividad económica y paisaje urbano. El interés de este informe para la investigación es sobre la utilidad de ese modelo público para el paisaje urbano en Madrid como parámetro para valorar la rentabilidad de los esfuerzos públicos y privados en la mejora de la calidad del paisaje urbano.AbstractThe purpose of this text is the exhibition and analysis of public intervention procedures in the urban landscape of the city of Madrid.

Chapter 4 discusses Mayor Frank Jordan’s (1992–1995) revanchist Matrix Quality of Life Program, which sought to enforce a broken-windows policing system in San Francisco. The impact of the policy was felt largely by the visible homeless in downtown San Francisco, who were regularly harassed and arrested by the police and forced out of the city. Because quality-of-life policing desires to sanitize the public space of disruptive and asocial behaviour, the public meals of Food Not Bombs near City Hall resisted the city’s attempt to criminalize homelessness. This chapter argues that the city attempted to construct the homeless as anti-citizens and exclude them from the political and physical spaces of the city.

The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the public perception of the quality of service in the public transit system in Montreal using a combination of analyses and surveys. The results are used to make recommendations to improve the STM and its perception. General guidelines of SERVQUAL with some additional questions that are more specific to the current social environment of the city are presented. A survey was conducted by asking 250 international graduate Concordia students to rate a series of statements based on the importance of the issue and how much they agreed with the statement, the results were analyzed using three methods: SERVQUAL, SERVPERF, and IPA. The improvement of timetable synchronization between different metro lines and buses is crucial, as well as the education of STM employees in terms of dealing with different ethnicities, languages, and backgrounds are found. The chapter is a rare outside look at the STM and how users perceive the quality of the service, as opposed to the usual internal studies done by the organization itself.

Anthropogenic load causes degradation of the natural structure of the city and has a negative impact on public health. In current situation, more recreational areas are organized for residents of the city. However, the organization of recreational areas does not always comply with the population requirements. In the formation that sort of spaces, it is necessary to obtain complete and reliable information about the quality of the environment, which can only be obtained through the regular monitoring studies.

Areas that are considered human-friendly are green spaces. The existing urban parks are designed to fulfill the role of relaxation, recreation, and entertainment. However, in many cases, these are historic places, which at the time didn't have much of an impact on external factors. Sustainable development issues are related to the quality of life and the usage of the environment and its resources by present and future generations. Noise and noise protection is an issue that is part of sustainable development. The inadequate implementation of the principles of sustainable development and non-inclusion of noise can noticeably lead to negative effects now and in the future. The aim of the paper is to analyze the soundscapes of two Bydgoszcz parks located in the city center. The values of the equivalent sound level for these areas were obtained from the existing Bydgoszcz acoustic plan. Subsequently, the resulting distribution of noise was compared with the results of subjective perception of sounds by visitors. On this basis, conclusions can be drawn regarding the ways of shaping such areas while taking into account the perception of visitors.
