Abstract Municipal spatial planning is one of the key elements of a national spatial policy and the local land use plan is the most important tool for shaping this policy. The local land use plan, as opposed to the study, is a provision of the local law. The study, however, is mandatory for the whole area of the municipality, while the local land use plan is, in principle, voluntary and subject to certain exceptions. One of the elements which ought to be included in the spatial policy a municipality is taking into account the threats to the safety of its inhabitants and their property, as well as identifying areas of natural geological hazards. Therefore, both the study and the local land use plan of the municipality should include, among others, areas of particular risk related to the subsidence of soil masses, i.e., landslide areas. Landslide areas are of a limited use for investment purposes, including residential, industrial or service development, as particularly vulnerable to the phenomenon of rock masses, eluvium or sediments sliding down slopes under the force of gravity. The purpose of this article is to analyze the legal and economic consequences resulting from changes to the local land use plan, related to the qualification of an area as a landslide area. This paper examines the changes to the local land use plan for the town of Wieliczka, located place on the border of the Outer Carpathians and the Carpathian Foredeep. The transition from a mountainous terrain into a plane gives rise to numerous natural forms of relief which are prone to landslides. The study of landslides in the municipality of Wieliczka conducted in 2008, resulted in changing the qualifications of many areas to areas at risk of soil subsidence. The effects of the study have been reflected in the new local land use plan introduced in 2010.

Bangladesh is a developing and densely populated country. The process of urbanization is increasing day by day in this country. But planned development is challenging here. Bangladesh is the largest delta in the world. Due to geographical location, Bangladesh is naturally prone to disasters. Not only that Bangladesh is also under the thread of global worming and climate change related issues. Although Bangladesh is not contributing much to global greenhouse gas increase, Bangladesh is one of the largest victims of the adverse impacts of global worming and climate change. To reduce the impact and damage it is necessary to formulate risk reduction land use plan incorporating socioeconomic and geo-physical aspects. Mirsharai is a coastal Upazila situated in Chattogram District of Bangladesh. The area is highly prone to disaster and affected by climate change related problems. So, the area is ideal for this kind of study. In this paper, socioeconomic characteristics such as affordability, investment potentiality, demand and need has been analyzed. Result shows that people’s affordability is not good in most of the places of Mirsharai Upazila but in some isolated areas like small urban area or growth centres, people’s affordability and other socioeconomic conditions are good. Geo-physical aspects such as Infrastructure, ground water recharge, water logging tendency, Road accessibility, Ground elevation, Agricultural crop pattern and Land use were used to calculate development suitability and development conflict using Multi-criteria Analysis technique. Based on development suitability and conflict 4 category were identified as highly suitable, suitable, moderately suitable and less suitable area for development. Similarly, highly conflicted, conflicted, moderately conflicted and less conflicted areas for development were identified. Finally, by comparing development conflict and suitability maps, a relative development suitability map was produced marking highly suitable, suitable, moderately suitable, less suitable, partially unsuitable and completely unsuitable areas for development. These types of socioeconomic and geo-physical condition analysis can help making clear understanding on the study area for making risk sensitive land use plan.

Culture has a very important essence in people's lives. Values that lead to culture seem to be the “breath” for the survival of society. A well-developed culture that can be viewed from both physical and non-physical aspects inherited from generation to generation becomes a tradition that has strong local wisdom. Yet along with its development, its existence may undergo a shift. This condition may exist because of the presence of other cultures that intentionally brought by or unintentionally emerge along with the presence of immigrants. This study aims to identify the shifts of cultural values of the people in Prawirotaman Village, especially in the aspect of community economic activities, through several stages such as: (1) Mapping changes in residential spatial planning in Prawirotaman Village; (2) Exploring economic activities changes in Prawirotaman Village. The results of the study indicate a change in governance and use of land in Prawirotaman Village. This change indeed has implications to socio-economic activities and most particularly to economic or livelihood system.

Street crime, like mugging and vehicle theft, are the significant crime problems in every developing city of the world. The study area for this research is Dhaka city, which is experiencing an situation of increasing street crime. This research focuses on the relationship between spatial planning and street crimes and tries to recommend different strategies for prevention of crime and violence in the streets of Dhaka city by proposing urban design and infrastructure planning. The study tries to assess the relationship from macro to micro level through different spatial and physical planning components. For the detail level study, four Thana (police station) areas have been selected from Dhaka City Corporation area (DCC) according to their physical layout and other characteristics. In this level, the relationship is studied through the association between spatial layout and different physical planning factors like land use along with some elements of streetscape. Space Syntax methodology was applied to assess the impact of spatial configuration in occurrence of street crime with the selected four study area. In the micro level the study reveals that different types of land use with different design elements lead to change in public activity spaces which have impact on occurrence of street crimes. For the overall research the street crime data (both macro and micro level) of mugging and vehicle theft were collected from the police authority and some insecure places are identified by the local people through field survey. It is expected that the outcome of this research will unveil the impacts of spatial planning on occurrence of street crimes in a city.

Tourism and community participation have transformed the physical setting of the traditional Balinese villages in various directions. Tourism village is an important type of spatial planning policies in Bali that focus on cultural tourism. In cultural tourism, the traditional villages including cultural and traditional practices of the people are the main resources of tourist activities. Therefore, the traditional village pattern and land use are signif icant in tourism development. Through integrating participatory rural appraisal (PRA) methods with land use and architectural-historical investigation, this paper explores and investigates the spatial pattern of land use transformation in tourism villages. The results indicate that tourism villages in Gianyar have experienced an expansion in both the horizontal and vertical dimensions, with increasing land intensity. This expansion was accompanied by the touristif ication process, with land use changing from addressing villagers’ needs to satisfying tourists’ demands. However, this paper states that the transformation is read as a pragmatic response to address new challenges in the community by interpreting the reconf iguration of the villages and houses.

A land-use plan is a core policy tool to curb excessive non-agriculturalization of agricultural land. The effect of plan implementation can affect sustainable land use and regional development. Empirical studies have shown that land development commonly and frequently fails to conform to land-use plans. However, neither qualitative nor quantitative studies are conducted to comprehensively explore the reasons for zoning–land use mismatch. To help bridge this gap, this study explored to what extent a plan has been implemented and what factors have affected zoning–land use mismatch. A new deviation discriminant framework of planning implementation was presented. Moreover, the logistics model was applied to discuss which factors substantially affect the zoning–land use mismatch. The plan implementation results were divided into the conformed, exceeded and unused areas. The general land-use plan failed in its spatial control over rural settlements and other built-up lands, with both more than 90% of the newly added construction land beyond zoning. In addition, the newly added construction land of rural settlements, other built-up lands, and transportation lands all exceeded the quota control. Furthermore, the physical factors of distance from the river, the elevation, the slope and the level, and the social-economic factors of the gross domestic product, the fiscal revenue, the fixed assets investments, and the rank of town have prominent effects on zoning–land use mismatch. Enhancing the flexibility of the land-use plan and strengthening the relationship between planning quotas and spatial zoning in the future are necessary to promote the effect of plan implementation.

In Indonesia the implementation of the spatial plan is only a small part of the plan. The impact of incompatibility with spatial planning is the deterioration of environmental quality. Tanah Datar District has a growth rate of settlements of 0.8 percent/year period 2000-2017. The purpose of this research is to determine index consistency of spatial plan and determination of policy direction of development of settlement area. To determine the consistency index of spatial planning to do a comparison between land use with the spatial plan. Land use map produced from Landsat ETM + 8, and map spatial plans resulting from the RTRW period 2008-2028 In Tanah Datar District. In addition, to determine the direction of the policy of settlement development using the ISM method. The number of elements analyzed by 10 elements, with 24 experts. The results show that around 43,7 percent of settlement development is incompatible with the spatial plan. Therefore, it is necessary for government policy to be consistent with spatial planning and law enforcement on spatial violation
