August 2010: the UNESCO-report includes recommendations towards the city:
a) explore ways to list the property in the framework of national legislation as an « urban landscape » to protect the coherence and the overall urban form,
b) undertake the study of the specific urban areas to define the urban typology and the conditions for possible future development,
c) promote clearer and more effective links between the development interests of the city and the need to conserve the Historic Centre of Brugge, by incorporating the requirements of heritage conservation into regional planning documents,

d) identify important views from and towards the property and incorporate their protection into urban planning documents,
e) strengthen governance of the property to make it more proactive and incorporate this into the approved urban plan based on the approved Statement of Outstanding Universal Value,
f) envisage the establishment of an advisory panel of experts specifically created for the property inscribed on the World Heritage List, that may be consulted as regards important projects and provide advice on their suitability at an early stage;

Evaluation Structure Plan 1972
Some of the main goals of the 1972 Plan are in 2012 still in order, but new ambitions and attention points complement this vision.
According to the analysis, the main issues for Bruges are:
‐ Protection of the residential function and the
diversity of the residents in the city
‐ Promote a unique and highly qualitative cultural image of
old and new masters
‐ The link between the city and its environment: a
historical connection that still offers possibilities
‐ A new vision on World Heritage and Historic Urban
Landscapes: urban tissue, old and new icons in the city
‐ World Heritage as a driving force

ACTION PLAN
� ACTION 3: ‘High Rise Plan’
- Important views towards the unescoworld heritage area willbe detected andprotected;
- goal is to obtainregulations for futuregrowth and possiblehigh rise. Can high risebuildings contribute tothe development, the charisma and the structure of the city?Which locations are appropriate?

- Unesco recommendation:- ‘explore ways to list the property in the framework of national
legislation as an « urban landscape » to protect the coherence andthe overall urban form’
- a listing of the whole city of Bruges as a ‘protectedlandscape’ is not possible/desirable
- a ‘Thematical Urban Execution Plan’ focuses on the cityscape and offers the same possibilities, but is more flexible (~normal U.E.P.).
- this Plan includes the most important (historic) roads, squares, views and landscapes.
![Page 46: MANAGEMENT OF HISTORIC CITIES THE EXAMPLE OF BRUGES · 2019-08-27 · 2008-2009 : Citizens-organisations sent letters of complaint to UNESCO, Paris They demand that the city authorities](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f0808b17e708231d41fff9b/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
- goal:
- implement the heritage evaluation map and protectthe most valuable categories (0-1-2-3?);
- guidelines on buildings that can be improved or even demolished. What building typology is appropriate? Height? Width? Façade and roof typology?
- preservation without ‘freezing’ the cityscape;
- more specific, local guidelines than the cityreglementation: specific materialization in a specificcontext.
finalization: beginning of 2014
