Town Plan 2014-26 for Qaasuitsup Kommunia

This was the first mutual town plan for the new rand municipality, replacing the eight town plans from the eight old municipalities. Eight town plans, made at different times (in different decades) and in different ways. At the same time, the town plan should also contain planning for the open country. An overall focus was therefore to harmonize the approach and form of both the statement and the provisions of the mutual plan.

Following the municipal reunification, there was a corresponding need to establish a uniform set of rules for the administration of area allotments. The reason for this priority was the desire for and the need for openness, a mutual basis and transparency in the municipality's overall area administration.
