Abstract

The City of Sarajevo, since its establishment in the 15th century, was facing a constant population growth and enlargement process of the city area. Due to the topographical conditions of Sarajevo's location in the valley, the potential expanding city area is very limited and the future expanding zones should be carefully selected (Arhiv Zavoda za planiranje razvoja Kantona Sarajevo, 1984a). Different phases and epochs of city's development history are readable along the valley from east towards west, from Ottoman, through Austro–Hungarian, Modern and Post–Modern period. As a part of former Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, Sarajevo got its first Building Code in 1880. This planning document should have helped to regulate the upcoming development of the city and its settlement area in an integrative way. In 1893 Sarajevo got its second Building Code, an "update" of the first one, and ever since then, this kind of spatial planning instrument was and is missing in Sarajevo's development and planning regulative (Biblioteka Zemaljskog muzeja BiH, 1884). This paper explains why it is important to reintroduce the planning tool of the “Building Code for Canton Sarajevo” as an instrument of the integrative, balanced and smart trans-sectoral development of Canton Sarajevo.
