Introduction. The relevance of this study is determined by the need to improve the legal framework and apply modern environmental protection technologies in the field of urban improvement, which ensures sustainable development and enhances the comfort of urban environments.
Problem statement. The experience of the Republic of Poland is of particular scientific interest, as the legal and regulatory framework for landscaping is shaped taking into account the requirements of European legislation, EU environmental directives, and the principles of sustainable development. This allows for its evaluation and the identification of opportunities to adapt this experience to domestic practice.
Purpose of the work is to study the Polish experience in the legal regulation of urban improvement and to identify possibilities for its adaptation to Ukrainian conditions.
Materials included legislative and subordinate acts of the Republic of Poland, as well as scientific publications by Ukrainian and international authors on urban improvement, ecology, and urban planning.
Methods used were comparative legal analysis, content analysis of sources, and synthesis of modern environmental protection technologies.
Results showed that Poland has a comprehensive system of legal acts combining national laws with local resolutions, spatial development plans, and maintenance regulations. The main tools are local decisions regarding cleanliness, maintenance of green areas, and engineering infrastructure, integrating ecological, social, and spatial components. The Polish approach ensures the creation of a safe, functional, and ecologically balanced urban environment and promotes environmental awareness among citizens.
Conclusion. The Polish model of urban improvement regulation is characterized by decentralization, a high level of detail, and practical orientation. It is relevant for scientific analysis and can be used to improve the mechanisms of legal regulation of urban improvement in Ukrainian settlements.
