Description

<p> This paper studied the deliberation process of revise the Urban Planning Law by the Home Ministry in 1946. During the revision, two different legislative approaches, one to revise the Urban Planning Law while separately enacting the Regional Planning Law, and one to establish a law integrating urban and regional planning, were explored.</p><p> The revision of the Urban Planning Law alone aimed to position urban planning as a matter that should first be promoted by local governments. At the same time, it was proposed to place the Zoning Code regulations under the Building Regulation Law of 1919, within the Urban Planning Law. In line with these amendments, it was necessary to enact a law for regional planning.</p><p> Based on some proposed amendments, a preparatory committee for drafting the Regional Planning Law and revising the Urban Planning Law was set up, and began a full-scale study on legislation of issues such as implementation of urban planning led by local governments, coordination between cities, and regional planning to deal with unregulated urban expansion, which the Urban Planning Law before the war had not been able to handle. Not only officials in the Home Ministry Planning Division, but also technical officials of the War-Damage Reconstruction Institute participated in the preparatory committee, creating a framework of building and urban planning administrations to study issues in an integrated manner.</p><p> The preparatory committee formulated a draft that integrated the Regional Planning Law and the revision of the Urban Planning Law, in which it was proposed to set up areas with a planned development coordination function in view of urban expansion. On the other hand, it was considered too much of a challenge in the situation at that time to give the authority of urban planning completely to local cities. In addition, it was regarded as a fundamental principle to separately institutionalize the methods for controlling urban development under both laws even while zoning, etc., of the Building Regulation Law of 1919 within the Urban Planning Law.</p>
