BENABENT, Manuel  and  VIVANCO, Lorena. The experience of the Municipal Spatial Planning in Ecuador. Estoa [online]. 2019, vol.8, n.15, pp.229-252. ISSN 1390-9274.  https://doi.org/10.18537/est.v008.n015.a11.

Since 2010, Ecuador's legal system has obliged provincial, cantonal and parochial decentralized autonomous governments to develop two planning processes, one in 2011 of formulation and the other in 2015 of respective updating of development plans and territorial planning (PDOT). This planning process has been of little benefit, due to the quality of its contents and the vagueness of the legislation regarding the procedure for articulating the different plans with each other and with the National Development Plan. According to this approach, it is necessary to reflect on the planning experience so far, analyzing the different phases of the PDOT: diagnosis, proposal and management model; and the impact of the Organic Law of Territorial Ordinance, Use and Management of Land and other laws in the different instruments of territorial ordering and urban planning, in order to extract inputs for future planning processes.

Keywords : Multilevel coordination; land development; land use planning; urban land use planning.
