Parcelamento do solo em Caturaí: município de pequeno porte da região metropolitana de Goiânia, Goiás

Abstract

The process of dividing urban land brings with it several issues related to subdivisions, in the specific case of this research, irregular and clandestine ones, in large and small cities. In this context, this dissertation researched how land subdivision occurred in Caturaí/GO, a small municipality, from the aspect of public policy and its influence on the practices and consequences of urban land subdivision, mainly on the regularity or irregularity of subdivisions in this municipality. The first chapter addresses the historical aspects of land subdivision in the country, highlighting the Metropolitan Region of Goiânia, bringing data on how this process interfered with the urban land of the city of Goiânia, considering that it was a planned city, always had urban guidelines and/or master plans since its construction in the 1930s, which indirectly influenced the region. In the second chapter, the municipality of Caturaí was analyzed as a case study because it is considered small in a metropolitan territory, which does not include the Master Plan in its administrative context. In the third chapter, the study focused on the implications of the absence of this urban planning instrument on the development and growth of the municipality. The problem is analyzed regarding the lack of implementation of land subdivision legislation in Caturaí. The methodology adopted was a case study, using institutional documents, legislative analysis, and on-site visits, to better understand the situation of illegal and irregular subdivisions in the region under study. The results showed that the Master Plan is an important tool to prevent the creation of illegal subdivisions, which occur in both small and large cities and that public interventions are necessary both to avoid and to regularize this form of use of city space.
