The city of Bełchatów has initiated several strategic planning processes to address urban development and environmental resilience. In late July, the municipality launched an anonymous online survey to gather resident feedback on climate-related challenges, such as heat waves, flooding, and the need for green spaces. This input is intended to inform the Municipal Climate Adaptation Plan, which considers measures like rain gardens and retention basins.

Following this, the Bełchatów City Council officially adopted a new strategic General Plan. Developed over a two-year period to comply with changes in spatial planning laws, this document replaces previous land-use studies and establishes 13 distinct planning zones. The plan aims to provide stability for residents and clarity for investors by defining areas for residential, economic, and service development while designating land that should remain undeveloped.
