BLUE LINES AS A MEANS OF GRAPHIC FIXATION BETWEEN WATER BODIES IN TOWN PLANNING DOCUMENTATION

In this article the purpose of the Blue Lines of Limitation as a fixation of the spatial boundaries of water bodies in the urban planning activity is considered. The peculiarities and importance of the use of Blue Lines as boundaries of the water area for maintaining urban planning discipline are indicated. Preservation of the boundaries of water areas in an urbanized environment requires the introduction of a separate urban planning restriction in the urban planning documentation. Along with the Red, Blue, Green and Yellow lines, which are already "working" in urban planning documentation, the Blue lines will graphically display the borders of the water area, regulating the regulation of urban planning activities in certain territories, which will contribute to urban planning discipline and the preservation of water ecosystems. Blue lines can graphically fix the boundaries of the water area to limit urban planning and economic activity. Our proposal is to introduce the concept of Blue Lines into the new edition of DBN B2.2-12-202… «Planning and Development of Territories» in the following wording: "Boundaries of the coastline (cut of water) on the natural or artificially created water area of water bodies (reservoirs and water courses) - the internal boundaries of the water protection zone with defined regimes and rules of economic activity are defined by blue lines." The development of district planning schemes, general plans of settlements, detailed plans of the territory (M 1: 25000, 1:10000, 1: 2000) graphically, with the help of blue lines, should indicate: - cuttings of existing and artificially created reservoirs; - section of direction, channel deepening; - changing the contour of reservoirs in case of their revitalization, etc. Fixing the spatial boundaries of the water area with the help of Blue lines will fulfill the tasks of urban planning regulations of economic activity, which will contribute to the preservation of the natural component of the water ecosystem in an urbanized environment. To preserve and protect water bodies in an urbanized environment, effective urban planning restrictions are necessary. Urban planning restrictions contribute to the preservation of our settlements from chaotic and disharmonious construction, make the urban space safe and comfortable for residents. The designation of the Blue Lines is a tool for preserving the natural component in the urbanized environment, which will help solve the problem of balanced, rational and harmonious use of water areas and vulnerable coastal areas.
