Preliminary assessment of past and current urbanisation processes in

Supporting the update of existing protection strategies and measures

within the framework of the Regional Landscape Plan (RLP)

Urbanisation and sprawlMain cities and towns

Main urban sprawl drivers:

� the post-II World War urban expansions (until the late 1950s)

� the attempts to implement strategic planning by the so-called

“Piano di Rinascita” (since the 1960s).

“Piano di Rinascita” (since the 1960s).

The analysis on a set of 29 protected urban sites (18% of the total),

shows since 1960 urban land use in landscape protected areas

has almost doubled (44%)

Urbanization and sprawlTourist areas

The analysis on selected landscape protection sites affected by tourist

development shows since 1970 to 1983,

over 50% of all tourist implementation plans in Sardinia were approved and

the 96% of them lay in protected areas defined by Law 1497/39.

Law 1497/39 and the Landscape plans

failed to give operational tools for the implementation of protection measures

allowing for changes towards not conformant land-uses

and the share of tourist settlement rate in protected areas rise up again.

Land-use changesRural areas

The analysis based on the Regional SDI geodatabase

(time series 2003 and 2008) concerning land-use changes in rural areas,

focuses on agricultural land, and in details on permanent crop land

(orchards and traditional crops such as olive groves and vineyards).

(orchards and traditional crops such as olive groves and vineyards).

In 2003-2008 agricultural areas of Sardinian land decreased from 37% to 35%.

Meanwhile permanent crops increase about 18% and a similar trend was found in

landscape protected areas, though with minor change rate ( +14%).

and in the number of houses occupied by non-residents

(from 25% to 27% in Sardinia, and from 47% to 50% in

landscape protected areas)

�2001: 20% of total regional population was living in

landscape protected areas.

Page 16: Campagna & Porceddu - Input2012

Issues

� Overall lack of efficacy in the implementation of the landscape protection policies

given by the national legislative framework in the last 70 years, particularly with regards

to urban and tourist settlements growth

Conclusions (I)

M. Porceddu

M. Campagna

[email protected]

[email protected]

� Negative population growth rate paralleled by the increase of real estate stock shows

a decreasing occupancy rate, particularly in landscape and natural protected areas

Page 17: Campagna & Porceddu - Input2012

Opportunities

�The recent development in Italian legislation for landscape protection and the current

update of the RLP may allow to amend past practices towards a more careful

implementation of landscape safeguard policies

Conclusions (II)

M. Porceddu

M. Campagna

[email protected]

[email protected]

� The Regional SDI was proven to enable analyses for the assessment of the impacts of

past and current spatial development policies

�Further coordinated actions to promote sustainable rural land use
