Uwarunkowania i kierunki przekształceń strefy podmiejskiej Olsztyna

The following general conclusions can be deducted from considerations of the paper entitled Conditions and directions of transformation of the area in suburban Olsztyn: - greens systems surrounding Olsztyn city are particularly valuable and fortunately their value has been noticed in strategic and planning documents which are a basis for city development, - existing natural limitations strongly conditioned creation and development of Olsztyn suburban zones, however incoherent or spontaneous investment actions which cause deformation of the existing cultural characteristics of the region or settlement unit are often noticed, - increasing interest in building areas in towns situated in the so called external green ring which surrounds Olsztyn city; on one hand they allow management of the area inside the city, designating those areas for functions other than dwelling functions (most of all decrease in leisure areas in the centre of the city does not occur), on the other hand because of unskilful shaping of the building they can cause degradation of the countryside, - an essential part in shaping the sense of bondage or, otherwise, identity with the place in question (a town, a street, building estate, a city, a region) should create educational systems which ought to care for knowledge of present and future generations about specificity of space shaping of an area in question (kind of buildings, its height, slant of roof, materials, way of implementation of a plot, etc.) - it is necessary to create systems of managing space in urban centres together with their external zone where appropriate areas are designated as biologically active and create leisure zones in suburban zones in spite of the lack of natural limits.
