Brasilia 247 - The governor of the Federal District, Rodrigo Rollemberg, stated this Wednesday (11), that the Land Use and Occupation Law project "will facilitate the licensing of economic activities and buildings in cities with transparency and 100% digital operation". The proposal was approved this Tuesday (10) by the DF Territorial and Urban Planning Council (Conplan) and will be sent to the Legislative Chamber by the end of October. The database of the law is available on the Geoportal.

The law applies to approximately 365 urban lots registered in land registries and spread across 24 administrative regions. It does not include urban areas listed as national heritage sites by the National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage (Iphan).

The Plano Piloto, Cruzeiro, Candangolândia, and Sudoeste neighborhoods are outside the scope of the legislation. These areas follow the rules of the Brasília Urban Planning Preservation Plan (PPCub), which is being developed by the government with public participation. Areas like Fercal, Vicente Pires, and Itapoã will be included in the law as soon as they are regularized.

The bill was drafted by the government with public participation. It involved 46 meetings of the technical committee, 24 in-person public consultations in the administrative regions, four online public consultations, three public hearings, and more than 20 specific meetings.

"The government is working on an intense process of legislative standardization and responsible regulation. This has to do with the efficiency of public management, with knowledge, with active transparency, and with society's control over its destiny," highlighted the Secretary of Territorial Management and Housing, Thiago de Andrade.

Current legislation

The plots covered by the LUOS (Land Use and Occupation Law) were mapped and studied individually and currently follow approximately 420 urban regulations and six existing local master plans. The new law, therefore, has the mission of unifying and systematizing the rules for these buildings.

According to the Undersecretary of Urban Management, of the Secretariat of Territorial Management and Housing, Cláudia Varizo, this is a law recognizing the existing city and not a regularization instrument.

The guidelines in the text approved by Conplan are consistent with what is foreseen in the Federal District's Territorial Planning Master Plan (PDOT), which will begin to be revised later this year, and with what is being developed for the Ecological-Economic Zoning, whose last public hearing will take place on October 28. "It is a completely new proposal, totally different from the one previously sent to the Legislative Chamber."
