Zoneamento urbanístico de Juiz de Fora: breve reflexão sobre o uso do solo

Abstract

Considering the socioeconomic transformations in the last twenty years, the zoning of the city of Juiz de Fora needs to be reviewed regarding the aspects related to the appropriate or compatible uses of the municipal land management. This urban planning instrument has the purpose of controlling the occupation of the urban space and, at the same time, providing access to land in a more just and democratic way, in addition to adapting to the urban dynamics, and understanding the exercise of property rights beyond private interests, in the sense of the social function of property. The intention is to update the current legislation in order to minimize some conflicts that occur when the local entrepreneur is denied the localization license because certain urban activities are considered incompatible with the use, taking into account the functionalist conception of zoning. However, from the point of view of multifunctionality, where the mix of uses can be adopted, legislation can become an allied to democratic access to land use.
