Shared Ownership

Communal land management is a structural element of the Alpine Mountains. In the Valleys of the Germanasca (TO), collective management has been carried out for centuries by means of extensive private shared ownership. These properties materialize the interrelations between the community and territory as identified by the first article of the European Landscape Convention. This contribution puts the theme of collective management of the highlands in the perspective of the recognition, by the urban tools regarding the theme of Landscape, of the “interrelations” between anthropic and natural elements, and in this case with respect to the Piedmont Regional Landscape Plan.

The Regional Landscape Observatory of the Veneto Region, formally established by the regional law n. 10 of 2011, initially involved local entities in the elaboration of experimental landscape plans. In 2012, endowed with a special organisational discipline, the Observatory set out tasks and activities to promote the protection, management and requalification of regional landscapes. In February 2013, the Regional Network of Landscape Observatories was established. In the years 2014-19, the Observatory focused its activities on training, participation and awareness-raising, in line with the aims of the European Landscape Convention, by providing training courses on landscape for technical experts and refresher workshops for professionals in collaboration with a number of universities of the Veneto region.

Open Meeting

This qualitative analysis of public participation in Connecticut open meetings highlights how Connecticut communities adjusted when the state’s open meeting law was temporarily revised under emergency order during COVID-19. A survey of officials in 95 municipalities found a majority had the same or more participation in budget deliberations during that time. Only about a quarter saw decreased public participation. A closer look at four communities highlights specific challenges and successes during the sudden shift in public meetings. Connecticut’s varied forms of government give multiple perspectives, which can provide insight for other communities looking to expand virtual access to open meetings.
