The aim of the action is to transpose into the municipal planning instruments elements and themes of reflection developed in different contexts and in particular to test the possibility that they may constitute an explicit reference for the definition of the strategies of the Services Plan, one of the three instruments of which the Piano di Governo del Territorio (Territorial Government Plan) is composed, as provided for by the Lombardy Region regulations.
