Currently, there are 7 urban areas in Dien Bien province. In the period from 2015 to 2023, the People's Committees at all levels have approved 76 construction planning projects, including 24 adjusted projects; 2 urban subdivision planning projects; 31 urban detailed planning projects; 19 new rural construction planning projects. Thanks to the promotion of construction planning and attention to infrastructure investment in residential areas and new urban areas, the urban and rural appearance of the province has changed significantly.
However, Dien Bien is a mountainous province with a strongly fragmented terrain, which is not favorable for urban and rural planning and development. On the other hand, as a poor province, the funding for the establishment, management of construction planning and construction investment is very limited; large-scale construction projects to improve the site affect the natural landscape and environment. Meanwhile, construction planning is a difficult field, requiring in-depth synthesis of many sectors and fields.
In addition, the work of planning, spatial development, construction of technical infrastructure and social infrastructure is still slow and incomplete; the indicators of infrastructure development and urban landscape architecture are not guaranteed. The work of urban management, development and environmental protection has been strengthened but has not kept up with and met the requirements of development trends; the coverage rate of urban planning is still low.
Resources for renovation, investment, development of basic economic -technical-social infrastructure, and overcoming problems of capacity to respond to climate change, floods, and landslides are still limited. In the period 2015 - 2023, the total value of investment capital for construction planning is more than 55.1 billion VND.
For these reasons, the construction planning products in the province in recent years have been limited. For example, in the organization and implementation of construction planning. Through inspection of the organization of document appraisal and issuance of planning licenses, it was found that some departments and localities did not organize to collect opinions from relevant units; there was no report on legal entities and financial capacity to implement projects according to regulations. The time and content of public announcement of planning were slow; management regulations according to urban planning projects and urban designs that were issued were not yet publicized.
In addition, the compliance with the law in the work of establishing, appraising, approving and adjusting construction planning in some planning projects is still inadequate. Typically, the project to adjust the detailed construction planning at a scale of 1/500 for the central area of Pu Tiu district, Dien Bien district is not guaranteed; the establishment of tasks and detailed planning projects does not fully cover some contents of the appendices attached to the explanatory notes (explanations, explanations, additional arguments for the explanatory notes, calculated data). The appendix is attached to related legal documents; the expected population size in the detailed planning project does not have full explanation and calculation. The placement of construction boundary markers and other prescribed boundary markers in the field still has many limitations.
Regarding the public announcement of planning according to regulations, the investor has not urged competent agencies and units to make it public, such as: The project to locally adjust the detailed planning at a scale of 1/500 of the existing central area of Dien Bien Phu City from Hill E to Cau Trang; the project to locally adjust the detailed planning at a scale of 1/500 of the administrative and political center of the new urban area in the East of Dien Bien Phu City.
In addition, some legal regulations on planning and construction planning are not clear, specific, and unified; some contents are still too formalistic, not paying attention to the participation of the community, the criticism of professional socio-political organizations to ensure the feasibility of the planning. This leads to many confusions and problems in the implementation process.
Some contents in the planning establishment, appraisal, approval and adjustment have not met the regulations such as: Time for approving tasks and time for preparing planning projects are still slow, planning is made outside the boundary; incorrect drawing scale, inconsistent drawings; no planning appraisal council is established, no opinions from the community on urban planning tasks; planning adjustment does not have enough documents as prescribed; requirements for planning product documents lack drawing components.
In order to overcome the limitations, meet the requirements of urban and rural construction and development and promote investment attraction, the Provincial People's Committee directs all levels and functional branches to improve the quality of construction planning and management; promptly announce and publicize planning. Focus on implementing detailed planning projects as a basis for urban architecture management and construction investment project establishment; strictly manage construction architecture in terms of form, scale, materials, appraisal of basic design, construction design, planning permits and construction permits.
