On the problem of development of built-up areas and improving quality of the urban environment (on the example of Ulan-Ude)

Abstract

The built-up areas in the cities have a trend towards developing slums due to excessive urbanization that leads to dividing city areas to useful and ineffective. The problem of large cities originates in ineffective property management, excessive losses from the maintenance and operation of buildings and structures. Considering this issue from the perspective of the effective use of territories, it is impossible not to refer to such a mechanism as development. It considers management and development through the integrated development and spatial planning with maximum benefit. Zoning of territories on profitable, low-income and unprofitable segments will allow elaborating projects focused on generating additional benefit by attracting private entrepreneurs and avoid losses in exploitation. In addition to that, it will allow analyzing prospective projects taking into account the existing urban development and formation of a comfortable urban environment for the population.
