5. Conclusions and directions of further research
In the future development planning supervision should be patterned, providing for research of spatial development impacts of coastal area regulation. Issues should be addressed regarding the indicators and methodology of such research.
The sectorial view of coastal area should be revised – coastal area cannot be identifi ed with the protection zone. Considering the vagueness of the concept, the territory in question is linked to a specifi c purpose and its borders may differ with the purpose. Economical coastal area development territory includes various aspects and as such is an object with properties of a fi eld, for delimiting which gradation is used.
Comparing the social, economic and environmental factors of development, it must be concluded that the defi ning aspect of coastal area development is the economic factor, but localization is determined by state and municipality legal regulations, which are expressed in the form of setting concrete boundaries and territories. Planning and defi ned structural boundaries have a signifi cant impact on the coastal area development processes; therefore such a structuring should be retained.
By using the protection zone as an instrument of territorial planning, its conceptual interpretation and goals should be expanded, defi ning also goals of territorial development and protection from natural risks. Approach must vary by territory. Coastal dune protection zone must be retained, but the methodology and criteria for its delineation must be defi ned more accurately.
The planning of population distribution in the existing planning structure is ineffi cient. It should be formed as a national priority, providing for regulations and instruments of a national scale.
