6 Finnish Environmental Legislation Land use and building Act(2000) Climate change, what are the main points? Spatial Structure Traffic Energy Flood

7 Functional Spatial Structure -new areas near existing structure -new areas integrated into existing built areas -city centres developed for diversified functions: services, jobs, living, recreation - planning must consider climate change adaptation

8 Traffic - areas must be planned so that they causes less private traffic possible -connetions for pedestrians and cyclists must covered whole spatial structure and be easily connected to stations and bus stops

9 Energy -planning should improve or contribute to saving en ergy and using renewable energysorces. Flood -studies of flood areas, -flood areas cannot be build

19 Part-financed by the European Äänekoski model options The Lights of the city

20 Part-financed by the European Äänekoski model options On the rocks and hills

21 Part-financed by the European Äänekoski model options The highway is hot

22 lll Korpilahti village Land use Analises

23 What tools we have now? *Plans (regional, general, detail) *Development discussions with municipalities *Buiding orders (criterias for buiding in scattered areas) *Buiding permits (conditions for buiding)

24 Some thinking/scattered settlements 1 FAMILY 4 PERSONS 2 KIDS (school) -A lot is cheaper than in cities or villages -The price of the house is the same, but if you have to sell the house you get less money -Electricity nets may cost a lot - No water pipes or seweredge pipes, consentrated systems, more costs

25 Some thinking/scattered settlements 2 -Two cars long way to work, more emissions more petroil more costs -Schooltaxi for 2 children (first 3 classes) costs for municipality, costs after for family -Long way to services: shops, helth care, etc more costs more petroil - The roads in springtime in bad conditions, can the fire truck or ambulance reach the family in case of emergency?

26 Some thinking continues -can we influenze by land use climate chance enough? - In scattered area we have in Finland the basic buiding right (excluding shores) - State gives tax-facilitations for transport-to-work expenses

27 What other tools we could create? Tools which could change peoples attitude? (Internet games etc.?) Tools for develop planning? (Energy plans, flexible or removable housing and services)

28 I think there is no exact answer yet maybe some day during these three years of this project.

29 THANK YOU.
