Urban Governance in Croatia: Potentials for Success
This paper analyses the role of the City Council in urban governance in selected Croatian towns. The analysis will be based on the questionnaire sent to all Croatian towns aiming to investigate priorities and importance of different activities at local level to obtain sustainable local development. The key research questions of the paper are the following: (i) «What influence has the Council in Croatian towns concerning different activities important for local development?» (ii) «What is the importance of different tasks for successful urban governance in Croatia?» (iii) «What are the councillors opinions about goals which are important for urban local development and governance?» In order to answer these questions, this paper will focus on selected Croatian towns which will be divided in several groups according to their size measured by total number of inhabitants. Furthermore, this paper will provide a thorough analysis of the answers given by town councillors regarding achievement of local development and governance. Because of the fact that Croatian towns dispose with different amount of revenues, in this paper local fiscal capacity will be used as important indicator of successfulness of urban governance in analysed Croatian towns. The results presented in this paper will enable to identify key constraints and potentials for sustainable local development in Croatia.
