TY - UNPB TI - Strategies for Coherent Neighbourhood Development Projects in Bratislava AV - public M1 - bachelor EP - 41 N2 - East-Central European cities face governance and financial challenges in new development projects. These processes often had vague planning policies benefiting land-owners and little focus on the public interest of residents. This research focused on strategies for coherent neighborhood development in Bratislava to ensure that amenities and services are coordinated with sizable new residential areas. A comparative policy and legal analysis of publicly available documents focused on the interplay between private sector actors, public administration, and public interest, using three case studies: the Chalupkova-Pribinova Zone as a failed example, the Urban Study Mlynské Nivy Zone as a pilot project, and Prague?s development tools. Findings indicate improved coordination in Bratislava?s approach, with both Prague and Bratislava leveraging City Spatial Plans to fund amenities through the private sector collaboration through a methodology for collecting contribution fees. A new framework used in Prague?s new Metropolitan plan could serve as an inspiration for Bratislava?s new Spatial Plan. Effective leadership has been crucial, driving positive changes by attracting skilled professionals. Legislative changes are needed to formalize contributions for amenities. Funding for public services remains a challenge due to the existing municipal fund redistribution system. Future research should explore the impacts of funding systems on municipal development, the dynamics between private developers and public administration, and the applicability of international urban development strategies within different legal frameworks.
