INSTITUTIONAL AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK FOR MANAGING THE URBAN ECOLOGICAL SYSTEM: A CASE STUDY OF KYIV

Section "Economics": Economic and legal problems of city development

Abstract

The habitats of each major city suffer from damaged ecology and seems every politician tends to guarantee the improvement in this field. In Ukraine we have a lot of governmental and local institutions which take care of this issue. Ukrainian legislation stands that the capital, which is Kyiv City, need more "high" ecological criteria. But in the fact, the statistics shows us that Kyiv is one of the worst cities (in 2018) if we take into account the amount of polluted water put back into the river. So to manage this situation the governmental bodies must have the ability to work properly and the sphere of their competence must be clear. In Kyiv City Council, which is the local self-government body, there is a "permanent commission on the ecological policy" which is consisted of the deputies (or representatives). The aim of this commission is not only look through some ecological-sensitive Kyiv City Council rulings, but to make the ecological policy itself. There is part of the executive body of the Kyiv City Council which is the "governing department" which has very limited competence. The state ecological inspection of Kyiv region is not subordinated to Kyiv City Council at all. The only tool which the local authority can use for producing the ecological policy is "complex local ecological program", and to acquire budget for carrying it out. The problem is that there are related programs approved on the state level after local programs can be started. In fact, in 2019 the ecological strategy became a law, but local Kyiv program was in process. While programs being approved, the former and privatized municipal company pollute the water in Kyiv, end the incinerator are not supervised by the permanent commission on ecology policy, but to another one — housing and communal services and property. The author offers to increase the sphere of competence of the permanent commission on the ecological policy, and to carry out the cooperation with the committee of the Ukrainian parliament, and Government, their "Offices of reforms". The legislation is very complex, regarding the fact that a lot of documentation is drafted on different levels.
