Abstract
The process of drawing up a plan for territorial provincial coordination is primarily a process of deep knowledge of the territory and its inhabitants, of confrontation with the institutional and social actors, construction of strategic visions in continuous balance between regulations, expectations of enhancement and development, and economic and environmental sustainability. The question becomes very complex if these operations will relate to an area such as the Province of Naples where a variety of textures, urban fabrics, landscapes and identities are overlapped. An area of intense contradictions, but dense of fertile resources. The Plan for territorial coordination of the Province (PTCP) of Naples has been developed by coordinating of a complex set of actions. These involved not only an articulated response to the different goals introduced by the new regional law of area government and the adaptation to the regulation of the Regional Territorial Plan (PTR) and the regional law L.R. 13/2008 but also the implementation of a series of activities which have supported and enriched the process of drawing up the plan. The complex process of knowledge of the provincial area has been transformed into structure, from which gave rise to the Plan's regulations. The following priority objectives of the Plan, focused on natural heritage, housing, production, education and mobility derives directly from the territory. To spread landscape enhancement throughout the province. The outstanding diversity and beauty of the natural heritage of this area is considered by the plan both a valuable resource to be used by its population and a resource of great attraction to support traditional forms of tourism and again a resource which can enable new activity. The plan in accordance with the European Landscape Convention and the regional guide lines to adapt it to the existing landscape plan, provides for the development of a renewed policy to promote cultural and natural heritage which makes up the landscape. To interweave up the human settlements with a network of natural corridors. To this end, the Plan provides for the establishment of ecological corridors which will play the function of preserving biodiversity and at the same time creating environments where the quality of life is better. These corridors will also ensure a suitable presence of open spaces which will be accessible to each resident. To achieve a balance of the population in the area with a sustainable housing supply.
