PARCELAMENTO, EDIFICAÇÃO E UTILIZAÇÃO COMPULSÓRIOS (PEUC): AVALIAÇÃO E RESULTADOS DA APLICAÇÃO EM PALMAS-TO.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of the urban instrument "Mandatory path to Plan, Build and Use" (PEUC) in its primary role of inducing the change of behavior of economic agents in the fulfilment of the social function of property and to show the results of its application in the rational occupation of urban empty spaces in Palmas, Tocantins. This study is justified by the fact that the City Statute (Law 10.257), completing 15 years of operation in July 2016, is still experiencing an underused applicability, especially into public policy planning. The qualitative and quantitative methodological approach applied to this empirical study was the analysis of the City Master Plan of Palmas-TO and the current Brazilian Urban Legislation to comprehend their application and results. We concluded that even in face of an innovative legislation and a political and ideological favourable context, the PEUC failed to fulfil its primary role of inducing the change on the behavior of economic agents, because of the strong real estate resistance and reduced local scale application in the territorial scope of Palmas-TO, losing its effectiveness as an inducer to full compliance with the social function of property.
