Abstract
In general meaning, the Italian legislative framework about urban planning is still based on principles that were defined several decades ago. The basic urban planning law was approved in 1942, following the modern movement theoretical basis. Then, each Region could define and promulgate specific new laws. In Lombardy Region case study, a recent law, n. 18/2019 approved in 26/11/2019, updated the Regional Law n. 12/2005 and Regional Law n. 31/2014 that concern regional, metropolitan and urban scale plans with particular reference to soil consumption reduction. The new Regional Law n. 18/2019 introduces a series of novelties that will be analyzed in detail in this paper. The main leanings regard the liberalization aspects that this law introduces. In particular, considering that classical planning usually limits the private proposals and initiative, the new law presents opportunities that can improve the liberalization (or deregulation) of private action in regeneration area. From the functional indifferentiation, to the buildable quantity, to the temporary use, author will discuss the elements trying to underline which impacts have on public action and public income that will be sensibly reduced to improve regeneration activities.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
