METROPOLITAN DIMENSION KEY METROPOLITAN ISSUES
  • Balancing urban redevelopment with urban
    expansion
  • Integrating transport, land use and
    infrastructure
  • Sustaining the vitality and viability of city and
    town centres
  • Enabling economic competitiveness
  • Promoting social inclusion
  • Assessing the environmental impact of development
  • Safeguarding natural and heritage resources
  • Achieving a carbon light future

3
METROPOLITAN DIMENSION
  • Such key issues can only be addressed effectively
    at the level of the Functional Urban Area (FUA)
    or Region or Metropolitan European Growth Area
    (MEGA)
  • These are the key building blocks for any
    European spatial perspective or strategy
  • They are recognised in the ESDP, by ESPON, by the
    CoR and in the Third Cohesion Report
  • They need to be made operational through
    effective metropolitan governance

4
METROPOLITAN GOVERNANCE
  • Subsidiarity in Europe will only become a reality
    if there is effective governance at the
    metropolitan level
  • Without effective metropolitan governance the
    populations of metropolitan areas are unable to
    influence some of the key issues affecting their
    future and its sustainability
  • Without effective metropolitan governance the EU
    will be without a key level of partnership to
    implement its wider strategies
  • An integrated approach to key metropolitan issues
    requires effective governance

5
METROPOLITAN GOVERNANCE
  • The mechanisms for governance may range from the
    statutory and comprehensive, through the
    selective, to the voluntary, depending on the
    range of key strategic issues that need to be
    addressed and their severity
  • Effective metropolitan governance and economic
    competitiveness and sustainability are
    interrelated

ELECTED METROPOLITAN AUTHORITY WITH CORE

COMPETENCE, CAPABILITY AND PROCESS
  • Effective metropolitan governance requires the
    three key functions of competence, capability and
    process
  • Competence means having the authority to adopt,
    implement and safeguard an Integrated
    Metropolitan Strategy
  • Capability means having the knowledge and
    understanding to take informed decisions
  • Process means having the means to regularly
    monitor, review and update the strategy

An assessment process that can provide the basis
for informed decision making on those aspects of
the Metropolitan Spatial Plan that are market
related, that is, industry and business, offices,
retailing, housing and transportation.
The diagram summarises an approach to balancing
supply and demand for sectoral issues.

PREPARATION OF AN INTEGRATED METROPOLITAN SPATIAL
PLANNING STRATEGY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT ON
A POLYCENTRIC BASIS
10
STEPS TO A METROPOLITAN EUROPE
  • Population mass and proximity/connectivity
  • Identity
  • 3 Definition of Functional Urban Region/Area or
    Metropolitan European Growth Area (MEGA)
  • 4 Recognition
  • Marketing
  • Influence
  • Support
  • Governance
  • Strategic issues and the longer term view
  • Visions and strategies to engage stakeholders
  • Competencies related to issues
  • Capability for informed decision making on the
    issues
  • Processes to implement strategies, policies,
    programmes and projects
  • 14 Processes to regularly roll forward a longer
    term view

11
TERRITORIAL COHESION WHAT MIGHT BETTER URBAN
BALANCE LOOK LIKE?
  • Recognised inner core (GIZ) and related outer
    core bridging areas linking to the periphery
  • Balance between the inner core and the
    Mediterranean and Danubian/Baltic transnational
    areas
  • Improved East/West, North/South and peripheral
    connectivity
  • Good connectivity from all areas to the core area
  • Good connectivity to European gateways
  • Recognition of Europes metropolitan regions and
    areas
  • In consequence, strong polycentric relationships
    within European inter regional areas and between
    them

INTERMETREX AND POLYMETREXPLUS
  • InterMETREX seeks to enable them to become as
    individually strong as possible through effective
    spatial planning and development practice within
    metropolitan regions and areas
  • PolyMETREXplus seeks to enable them to become as
    collectively strong as possible though the
    development of effective polycentric
    relationships between metropolitan regions and
    areas
  • A polycentric Europe cannot be built without
    strong metropolitan regions and areas
  • InterMETREX enables PolyMETREXplus

METROPOLITAN
  • Facilitate metropolitan recognition and
    definition
  • (data collection and comparative indicators)
  • Promote mechanisms for appropriate and effective
    metropolitan governance
  • Promote the production of key issue based
    Integrated Metropolitan Strategies (with
    stakeholder involvement)
  • Actively support the implementation of such
    Strategies through the Structural funds
  • Actively support the exchange of practitioner
    knowledge on metropolitan affairs
