The development of local government is one of the key factors that contributedto the democratization of the political system in Poland. The process of building local government in Poland is still not finished, and there are new challenges. One of the important issues is the question of increasing role of metropolitan areas and large urban areas. The subject of the article was an analysis of the parliamentary Act on the metropolitan district. The proposed project does not fit the local reality. The good thing was that this project provoked the debate. As a result, it developed a new solution – the Act on metropolitan associations.

Rozwój samorządu terytorialnego jest jednym z kluczowych czynników, które przyczyniły się do demokratyzacji systemu politycznego w Polsce. Proces budowy samorządu terytorialnego w Polsce nie jest skończony, a przed nami pojawiają się nowe wyzwania. Jednym z istotnych zagadnień jest kwestia zwiększenia roli metropolii i dużych aglomeracji miejskich. Przedmiotem artykułu stała się analiza poselskiego projektu ustawy o powiecie metropolitalnym. Przedstawiony projekt nie przystaje do samorządowej rzeczywistości. Nie ulega jednak wątpliwości, że dobrze się stało, iż ten projekt trafił pod obrady parlamentu, bowiem stał się podstawą do ożywionej dyskusji. W jej efekcie wypracowano nowe rozwiązanie – ustawę o związkach metropolitalnych.

The local self-government system in Poland has been evolving since its restitution in 1990. One of the major problems discussed in recent years is the issue of the system of metropolitan areas, metropolises and agglomerations (what was before referred to as large cities). The issue is complex, which is refl ected in, i.a., attempts to develop systemic solutions regarding large cities and hinterlands. The aim of the paper is to analyze draft laws put forth by various entities relating to this very issue, including their underlying assumptions. The draft laws and assumptions presented in the paper were developed mostly in response to the reality of the collaboration of large urban centers and adjacent municipalities demonstrating clearly that the solutions based on the institution of voluntary municipal unions do not yield the desired effects for large cities and metropolitan areas. In spite of the common belief that some legislative solutions regarding the system of government regulating the legal status of metropolitan areas must be adopted in Poland, the first Act on metropolitan areas was passed only in 2015, and even a single municipal association has not been established on its grounds.

The present article outlines the current models of governing the metropolitan areas in the world, as well as considers the feasibility of those models in the specific circumstances of Poland. The article argues that Polish metropolitan areas should be governed by the formalized cooperation of self-government units that currently exist there. The postulated legal form of this cooperation is the metropolitan union.
