Friuli Venezia Giulia territorial and urban reforms

Overview

The Friuli Venezia Giulia region is implementing significant legislative changes regarding land use and territorial management. The Regional Council approved Bill 90, a major urban planning reform that replaces the General Regional Urban Plan after nearly fifty years. This reform establishes a “zero balance” principle to combat land consumption, requiring new land transformations to be offset by the recovery of existing territory. It also transitions traditional zoning to “physical-functional areas” and integrates climate resilience and seismic safety into planning.

Following these structural reforms, regional authorities have turned their attention to the impact of short-term rentals on the housing market and tourism. Legislators are debating new regulations, with calls to accelerate the operational status of a Tourism Observatory to provide a data-driven foundation for policy. Officials have emphasized the need for precise mapping to avoid “generalized interventions” that might negatively impact small towns and mountain locations.
