Abstract (EN):
The current article reports a proposal of a new territorial management instrument, aimed at assuring
municipal economic and financial sustainability, through the financing of municipal urban development
directed to social purposes, and through clear and fair procedures in equal development distribution of
costs and benefits that accrue from planning decisions.
This new urban management instrument is based on the taxation of licensed built surfaces above the
municipal abstract average built surface. It is duly explained, justified under an economic and financial
perspective, and applied to the Detailed Plan of Avenida Papa João XXIII, in Fátima (in the Municipality
of Ourém, Portugal).
In this study average municipal building capacities are computed, as well as the concrete building
capacities/m2 that accrue from urban interventions in the planning area for the different plots,
anticipated kinds of uses, and applicable urban parameters. The homologous surplus-values assigned
by the Detailed Plan are further anticipated, as well as the potential values this new instrument would be
able to collect. Finally, respective costs and benefits that result to the Municipality of Ourém are
assessed.
From this research one can conclude that this new territorial management instrument is sustainable
from an economic and financial standpoint. Its application is generalized to other municipalities, and it
potentially exerts important impacts in respective financial strengthening.
