TY - JOUR TI - Projections of Financial Implications of Planning Decisions: An Example of The Cracow Development Strategy Project for 2030 AU - Kudłacz, Tadeusz AU - Lityński, Piotr TI - Projections of Financial Implications of Planning Decisions: An Example of The Cracow Development Strategy Project for 2030 AB - Estimating the financial implications of territorial development plans is a complex task. That complexity is a derivative of: detailed planning decisions, planning a time horizon, and the multidimensional category of territorial development. Referring to the above operationalization of methods of projections, the rapidly increasing difficulties in the conceptualization of analytical methods is visible as well as the availability of the necessary informative material. For these reasons, the development strategies of many units have no estimates giving answers to basic ques­tions of: how much the implementation of a strategy will cost? what financial potential of sources is, what can make it possible to involve the strategy implementation? These are the issues and questions targeted in the article. The empirical exemplification of the results is the project, currently being updated – The Cracow Development Strategy 2030. The article consists of three chapters and conclusions. These chapters substantively develop: (–) the issue of the financial implications of planning decisions, (–) a proposal for a methodology for estimating financial resources for the strategy implementation and estimating the financial potential of its implementation, (–) realization of the proposed methodology for the project of SRK 2030. Among the results of the research it can be pointed out, that the expenditures for the implementation of CDS will reach 11 billion PLN, while the financial potential fluctuates around 16 billion PLN.   VL - 2017 IS - Issue 3 (39) PY - 2017 SN - 1896-0200 C1 - 2084-3968 SP - 291 EP - 303 DO - 10.4467/20843968ZP.16.023.7238 UR - https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/zarzadzanie-publiczne/article/projections-of-financial-implications-of-planning-decisions-an-example-of-the-cracow-development-strategy-project-for-2030 KW - development strategy KW - expenditures KW - estimating KW - financing sources
