This article is devoted to the study of state regulation of urban planning procedures. Urban planning is an important component of state administration and directly affects the spatial development, economy, environmental safety and quality of life of the region. In Ukraine, this sector is regulated by a broad regulatory framework, in particular the Law of Ukraine “On Regulation of Urban Planning Activities”, but its application faces a number of problems, in particular the obsolescence or fragmentation of legislation, which complicates its application and creates legal uncertainty, insufficient effectiveness of supervision mechanisms, bureaucratization of procedures, insufficient digitalization and weak integration of international experience.This leads to low efficiency of state regulation, increased corruption risks and inhibition of the development of urban planning projects. Studying the experience of regulating urban planning activities in other countries, in particular in Germany, France, Great Britain and the USA, shows that effective management of the sector is possible thanks to clear legal regulation, decentralization of powers, introduction of digital technologies and active participation of citizens in this process. The experience of other countries shows that there are different approaches to regulating spatial planning, procedures for obtaining construction permits, monitoring compliance with urban planning legislation and ensuring sustainable development of urban areas. This article analyzes trends in state regulation of urban planning activities in Ukraine and foreign experience, and conducts a comparative analysis with international experience. Particular attention is paid to decisions in the field of decentralization, public participation, environmental standards and urban planning, the analysis of which is aimed at increasing management efficiency, ensuring sustainable development of the region and creating a favorable urban environment.
