수도권 관련계획의 정합성 확보 실태 연구

In Korea, there have been discussions on how to systematically manage the Seoul-metropolitan areas in terms of growth management and/or sustainable development, and the majority of the discussions have been focused or based on the general or comprehensive approaches. This study aims to suggest knowledge on the directions, contents and topology of the executable or practical plans through specifically and empirically evaluating how much the plans on the Seoul-metropolitan areas secure the planning consistency. To evaluate how much the plans secure the planning consistency, we analyzed the Comprehensive National Territorial Plan, the Seoul Metropolitan Area Readjustment Planning Act, the Seoul Metropolitan City-Region Planning and the Urban General Planning. We divided the consistency into the following types: 'procedural consistency (in planning)'; 'internal consistency (among planning factors of a plan)'; 'relational consistency (among the plans)'; and then evaluated the consistency by analyzing it with the following types of linkages: 'implied (linguistic and/or abstract) linkage' and 'expressed (numerical and/or concrete) linkage.' We evaluated the consistency of the plans separately, in terms of planning factors and planning contents respectively. We also suggested example cases for the applicable consistency to maximize the concreteness of the evaluation. According to the results, the lack of procedural consistency happens due to the following conditions: the participation of stake holders of the urban plans are not enough; the planning factors are not cooperative with other plans; the ways and methods to comprehensively manage and control the subordinated plans are needed. Concerning internal consistency, where the implied linkage prevailed, the structure is too complex to evaluate the consistency. Fragile were the linkages between planning indexes and planning contents among spatial structure and sectional plans and planning contents, and between execution and management. Lastly, concerning the relational consistency, the followings are important: how much a plan can be a guide to its subordinate plans; how the planners are cooperative with each other; whether the system is established to monitor and evaluate plans; and how much degree the redundancy is removed in plans. Consequently, this study confirms that the consistency of the plans on the Seoul-metropolitan areas is not up to scratch, and thus that we need an across-the-board modification on the relevant plans. This study suggests to construct a planning environment where the government bodies (or the planner) can be more cooperative with each other, and to establish specific plans within or based on the regional plans. This study also suggests to establish and execute specific indexes for the pivotal planning factors (or contents) and to modify the plans for developing specific ways, enabling the execution of the plans. Further studies are needed in those issues.
