IURS About IURS
IURS is a non-profit advocacy, research and project implementation organization, which aims are: working to support sustainable land use
development practices, strongly focused on issues of
underused urban land, containment of sprawl and sustainable urban development,
to foster broad coalitions that enhance the competitiveness of accessible and equitable urban development and redevelopment.

IURS Project BRIBAST
Project BRIBAST http://fast10.vsb.cz/bribast - Brownfields in Baltic States – Lifelong Educational Project was designed to introduce education about brownfields into Baltic states. Project had 7 partners from 4 countries and was financed by the Lifelong Learning Programme. Project BRIBAST was an adaptation of its predecessor, the project
LEPOB http://fast10.vsb.cz/lepob, which originated concepts of these educational materials.
Outcome of BRIBAST project are:Brownfield handbook, Brownfields course and
Teachers notes in English, Lithuanian and Latvian languages.
PARTNERS ARE BEING SOURT TO TRANSFER THE PROJECT TO BALCAN STATES
If interested to partner a new project please contact: [email protected]

IURSProject CircUse
Many regions are confronted with massive urban sprawl, economic crisis and effects of demographic changes, which are all causing unsustainable land use patterns and have an impacts on competiveness and on climate change.
Circular land use management is an integrative policy and governance approach, philosophy can be expressed with the slogan: “avoid – recycle –compensate“.
Main project outputs are:• Development of an overall strategy towards circular
land use management• Tools and instruments of Circular Land Use
Management• Pilot Projects
12 Partners from 6 countries, project duration 3/2010 – 02/2013,
Project No: 2CE174P4, www.circuse.eu

Sitting in inbetween chairs
BF remediation is a multidisciplinary subject with no single public overall responsibility for solutions.
BF solutions vary and are not easy to transplant, but the principles are.
BF are not an industrial issue, but mainly a social, an economic and a spatial one.
The spatial aspect of BF in CZ took long time to be acknowledged.
The sectoral focus to achieve coordination was attempted several times, but got so far nowhere.
At LA offices there are planning and development departments, but none as as yet has the overall responsibility.

IURS Potential of the
new planning law
It visualised BF in planning (previously brownfields was not know category in planning),
it has given qualified planners the right to stigmatised properties as a BF,
it cleared out the BF data publicity issue,
it provided bases for a regular BF inventorying and data update in administrative units called ORP.
10
IURS
Barriers and solutions to BF data improvements Terminology mixing - solved by subdividing the “Jev4”
into several layers, helping to keep BF separate from other land types determined for redevelopment,
“Communication” to lay persons, and its suitability to share data between planning and strategic departments - solved by qualitative information added to the listing in the GIS attributes and polygons (photos, assessment of the owner’s ability to improve the property, rough evaluation of likelihood for market uptake of the property est.),
Incompatibility and inconsistency of data - solved by adopting a common methodology and by providing training (focused especially on collection of qualitative criteria and additional attributes in order to avoid subjectivity and inconsistency in classification),
2 year frequency of survey is too expensive and consideration should be given to 4 year bases – amend law
Legal duty to handle BF data in ORPs is not of a sufficient scale – regions need to be “motivated” by a program (aimed on improving the regional interest to coordinate) or possibly by amendment of the law.
GIS skills and costs barriers – can be solved by simplified tools
11
IURS
Levels of tackling BF
Comunity level – individual BF projects, partnerships, local BF programs, local delivery vehicles
OPR level – detail databases, analyses of data, formulation of local BF policies, work with owners
Regional level – regional BF strategic databases, regional BF mitigatory programs, key BF sites promotion, regional delivery vehicles, education, information
National level - swots from regional databases, policy, programs, tools, legal changes, education, information exchange
12
IURS
Easy and communicative local
inventoriesData for community use need to be in a suitable, easy access, low skills formats, but they have to satisfy the new law requirements and be suitable for purposes of spatial planning An effective and comparable data
surveys with minimal costs Data formats supporting analysis,
benchmarking and other community development use
Easily accessible outputs allowing local advocacy of BF issue: indicators, printed brownfield cards with photos and locations, graphs and simple maps.

THERE IS A LITTLE POINT OF DATA GATHERING IF THIS DATA
IS NOT USED FOR ANALYSES AND THE ANALYSES DOES NOT

How does inventorying
supports BF reuse? To make national, sectoral or
regional BF help programs, data and its analyses are a must.
Inventorying does tend to „visulalise“ the BF issue. If the incorrectly focused, then the analyses can be misleading and the issue can be missed.
Inventorying efforts tend to drive public aid towards the „hard measures.
For BF reuse the „soft measures! are however more beneficial, as they support development skills and sustainable bankable projects.
19
IURS
What is there to learn from the CZ
experience? It takes 10-15 years to build up
national expertise in order to: address BF in a coordinated manner adjust legal framework achieve comparative data be able conceive integrated
regeneration programs and other useful tools
spend public money effectively focus research correctly focus education correctly curb Greenfield development and tune
other policies start sharing knowhow and experiences
CZ BF KNOWHOW IS HIGHEST AMIDES THE CEC COUNTRIES, BUT WE STILL DO
NOT HAVE IT RIGHT!

IURS
AnalysesApproaches and
policies BF as an issue are identified in the
document „City Development Strategy until 2015“) priority 3.1, Creation of quality urban development (approved 2007)The first proposal for the new local plan (March 2010) is paying not much attention to BF reuse and it is deregulating a vast amount of Greenfield land for development
30
City feels powerless because it owns only a few BFCity activities towards BF owners so far brought not much of a positive outcome

IURS
Analyses outcomesKey issues
79 brownfields,11.7% of build up area 429ha of brownfields (cc 2.4 ha regen.) At this rate regeneration would take
around 300 years 3 large areas, all with state/state
companies owned land in their midst 22% of city B. land is owned in this form
and there is a little cooperation so far Competition between large brownfield
locations for development activities New proposal for the LP adds to this
another cc 700ha of Greenfields (together cc 1100ha of developable land!)
Low market and competition of other large regional towns
Low proactively of local government No regional partnership, Insufficient and uncoordinated policy No delivery structure Low development skills

IURS
Approaching brownfields in low
market situation1. Partnerships and public sec.
proactivity• Regional partnerships• Stakeholders cooperation • Pro-activity of local government• Creating delivery vehicles
2. Development tools• Integrated development approach especially
for large brownfields areas• Curbing the Greenfields deregulation• Taking brownfields from the regime of
developable land
3. Economic tools• Supporting development of bankable projects• Placing public project onto brownfields • Improving development skills
4. Marketing tools• Improving city image• Marketing development opportunities
5. Mitigation measures• Supporting temporaly use for brownfields• Creating alternative uses for brownfields
(growing of timber, energy plant est.)
33
IURS
Main goal of the strategy
In 10 years to reduce brownfield land by 100ha (23,28 % reduction), while creating conditions, which enables owners and investors finding new uses for brownfields , so that brownfields stop being a burden and start to bring city an income or other wider benefits.
(100% = 429,5ha)
34
IURS Priorities
PRIORITY 1 Exploiting all the legal, formal
and informal tools, which aid brownfields reuse
PRIORITY 2 Active identification of financing
sources and resources with an aim of maximizing a leverage effect
PRIORITY 3 Increase of information flow and
improvement of development skills
PRIORITY 4 Improving quality of life in the
city
