Abstract

The spatial development of large Polish cities is often in areas outside its borders, in rural areas in the so-called. suburban area. There are determinants that attract new development to rural areas, and many of them we have real influence shaping the spatial policy. Meanwhile there is the question of whether a view to the development of spatial local authorities adequately protect its natural resources. In this article we analyzed this situation for example of Długołęka municipality near Wroclaw. Analyses show that the municipality has focused on the use of development factors for the expansion of quantitative extension, inadequately protecting at the present protected areas and soil resources.
