The article presents the lowest level of local government – a commune – against the background of international local government standards formulated by such organizations as the Council of Europe, UNDP, OECD, the World Bank, the European Union. Firstly, the evolution of these standards is presented – starting from European Charter of Local Self-Government, through European Charter of Local Self-Government, ending with The Strategy for Innovation and Good Governance at Local Level and European Governance. Then, the range of implementation of these principles in Polish local government is analyzed. It can be determined that external influence in the form of international standards has been one of the key factors shaping the Polish self-government in the last 25 years.

A commune has the right to freely shape the communal waste collection system in relation to owners of uninhabited real estate where communal waste is generated. In the event that a resolution regarding this matter is passed on by a commune council, a property owner has the option of being excluded from the system. Such an exclusion obliges the owner of the property to conclude a contract with the communal organisational unit collecting communal waste. The implementation of this statutory obligation imposed on property owners is subject to control by a head of commune, mayor or a president of a city.

Communes in Poland are entities that act on market, have defined resources at their disposal, are independent, which is legally guaranteed, and are also responsible for their decisions. Moreover, they compete with each other for various forms of capital. Their effectiveness in management and rationality of undertaken actions are essential as they can reach a specific (desired) market position. In this paper, the assumption was made that relationships of entities interested in activities of commune can have a diversified nature (not necessarily favorable from the point of view of their goals and interests), and the power of their influence may significantly facilitate or impede management in a commune and thereby influence the effectiveness of its activity. In the present conditions of commune functioning, the ability to recognize the interests of particular entities related by market relationships with the commune may guarantee and, in the case of a lack of this ability, may limit the accomplishment of interests of a commune as a collective. The reflections presented in this paper include broadly understood interests of local self-governments. This area is multi-dimensional and poorly recognized, which inspires us to make an attempt to create the system of notions. This attempt has been undertaken in further part of the paper. This constitutes an introduction to direct studies on the problems of interests of local self- government on the example of tourism economics.

Public administration in Poland has taken the form of a system of entities with different tasks and objectives, as well as different competences. It is a part of the classical model based on the functioning of two separate components, such as the state administration, including the government and local self-government. From the perspective of a democratic state governed by the rule of law, the existence of local self-government is extremely important, and even becomes a necessity. Therefore, the deliberations addressed in the paper focus on the functioning of this form of public administration at the lowest level of basic division of the state, which is the commune. The presented research is an attempt to indicate the legal status and position of commune self-government not only in the broadly understood local self-government but also in the whole public administration system.

In the case-law and in the literature on the subject, there is disagreement as to whether it is permissible to regulate in the statute of the auxiliary unit the principles and procedure for dismissal of a member of the resolution body of that auxiliary unit. Such a possibility also does not arise directly from the Act on Communal Self-government, as it does not regulate the issue of dismissal of members of legislative bodies coming from direct elections. If it is assumed that a community council had been given the opportunity to make decisions on specific matters related to the local community, then it is justified in the context of the interests of that community to discipline community councillors, e.g., depending on their attendance at the council sessions.

The Act on Maintaining Cleanliness and Order in Communes provides the basis for choosing the method of determining the fee based on several criteria. It also states that a communal council may apply various criteria differentiating the rates of payment. According to the current case law of the Supreme Administrative Court, the communal council has no right to introduce an additional criterion – within the chosen method of determining the fee – i.e. a division of households into categories depending on the number of tenants. Though, it cannot be excluded that there is a possibility to differentiate the fee calculated as a product of the number of tenants in the given real estate and the sum of the fee when applying the number of tenants as a criterion of differentiation. It has to be stressed that the stance of acceptance of such differentiation may be questioned by supervisory authorities.

The aim of the study was to analyse the dependence between nature conservation instruments and the percentage of land covered by local spatial development plans and to assess the effect of conservation areas on the type of spatial management in a commune. The material for the analyses comprised local spatial development plans, an administrative decision concerning terms of construction and land management (the WZiZT decision) and administrative decisions on location of public purpose investment projects (LPP decisions) issued in the years 2004–2012. Based on the Mosina commune (in Wielkopolskie Province) an analysis was conducted on land allocated to individual land use forms in spatial development plans as well as their distribution in relation to existing land surface conservation areas. The study investigated the issue of whether the current spatial planning approach at the commune level covering all land within the boundaries of conservation areas with spatial development plans ensures rational spatial management.

Elektromobilność miejska (urban electromobility) staje się istotną ideą w zakresie kształtowania systemów transportowych, w szczególności miast i aglomeracji. Rozrost obszarów zurbanizowanych i brak możliwości rozwijania infrastruktury drogowej w tym samym tempie oraz wpływ transportu na środowisko nakładają na władze krajowe i samorządowe obowiązek świadomego regulowania zasad rozwijania transportu z ukierunkowaniem na zbiorowy transport elektryczny. Praca przedstawia przestrzenne zróżnicowanie podziału funduszy unijnych na zelektryfikowany transport miejski w podziale na miasta i województwa. Przedstawione zostały sposoby wydatkowania środków z projektów unijnych na transport elektryczny.

Celem opracowania była analiza zależności między występowaniem form ochrony przyrody a stopniem pokrycia planistycznego oraz ocena wpływu obszarów chronionych na sposób prowadzenia gospodarki przestrzennej w gminie. Materiałem badawczym były miejscowe plany zagospodarowania przestrzennego, decyzje o warunkach zabudowy i zagospodarowaniu terenu oraz decyzje o lokalizacji celu publicznego wydane w latach 2004-2012. Na przykładzie gminy Mosina (województwo wielkopolskie) przeprowadzono analizę powierzchni przeznaczanych w dokumentach planistycznych pod poszczególne formy użytkowania a także ich rozmieszczenia względem istniejących powierzchniowych form ochrony przyrody. Podjęto próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie czy przy aktualnym podejściu planistycznym na poziomie gminnym pełne pokrycie planistyczne terenów w granicach obszaru chronionego zapewnia racjonalne gospodarowanie przestrzenią.

The article deals with the problem of non-contract private building management by communes. The situation, however, generates conflicts over the administration between the buildings' owners and the communes. In the firs place, the author of the article discusses the legal regulations binding in the period of the People's Republic of Poland, witch caused numerous properties, particularly privately-owned buildings, to remain in the possession of communes. In order to assess the legal relation between the commune and property owners, the provisions of Articles 752-757 of the Polish Civil Code, witch concern management of another person's affairs without mandate (negotiorum gestio) are applied. On the ground of this regulation, the author examines the rights and duties of the commune managing private buildings and its responsibility against owners of properties. He also discusses the question of binding property owners to contracts made by the commune. Frequently, the property managed by communes has unregulated legal status, which hinders their return to the righteous owners. In consequence, communes are forced to manage the property. Therefore, the author shows the legal basis of the commune's claim for taking over the management of buildings by their legal owners.

The aim of the article is an attempt to outline the boundaries of taxation powers of communes and to indicate their influence on the amount of budget revenues. The research method was the analysis of literature, applicable law acts and data relating to budget revenue resulting from the power of taxation and their relationship to own revenue and total revenue. The study includes a thesis that local authorities can create local tax policies (on the basis of their powers), but in its essence it slightly affects the execution of budget revenues of communes. The rights of taxation powers granted to communes are systematically used by the government authorities. Generally, applying lower tax rates or exemptions in question affects the reduction of budget revenues of communes. Thus, consequences of using power of taxation may be defined as so-called lost income. The observations have made it possible to formulate the assumption that municipalities usually use these powers to reduce the higher tax rates.

The author of the petition in question calls for the initiation of legislative action aimed at enacting a statute repealing all resolutions of commune councils on commencing the preparation or amendment of a local spatial plan for a commune, adopted on the basis of the indicated statutes. In the opinion of the author of the paper, the petition is unjustified. Some of the problems identified by the petitioner have been resolved by an amendment to the Planning and Spatial Development Act. It was questioned whether complying with the demand included in the petition could contribute to solving the problem of oversupply of land for residential development.
