Sustainable urban development in a city affected by heavy industry and mining? Case study of brownfields in Karvina, Czech Republic
Original language description
urban development. Brownfields can occur as a barrier and obstacle to the development of the urbannorganism but simultaneously they also represent unrealised potential. Brownfields, ex-industrial sites,nare greater in those cities whose development was based on heavy industry or mining. In the first part ofnthis paper theoretical concepts linked to the regeneration of brownfields are discussed, the second part isndevoted to a case study of Karvina, in the Czech Republic, where the driving forces behind the occurrencenof brownfields, their spatial distribution, and their prospects for regeneration are analysed. It was foundnthat 28 brownfield sites on 121 ha are located in surveyed city with the majority having industrial andnmining origins. Majority of local brownfields are owned by a local mining company. The perception ofnindividual sites by the local population was ascertained via a questionnaire survey (n 150). This foundnthat awareness about problems connected to brownfields is quite limited and that local populationnperceive post-mining brownfields, located in more distant locations, as an opportunity for new industriesnto create job opportunities in city with significant unemployment problems.
