Abstract

This chapter looks at urban planning, honing in on the important context of postwar reconstruction in Ukraine. Specifically, it deals with the intricate process of developing and optimizing the social planning structure within medium-sized cities, offering insights and innovative solutions. It utilizes the city of Uzhhorod, a typical medium-sized city in western Ukraine, for case research. At the core of this research lies the concept of the information model. This model adeptly elucidates how the socio-planning structure of medium-sized cities, comprising population, territory, and service facilities, stands as the foundation for comprehending the dynamic interactions and complexities of urban systems. Within these urban systems, historical periods cast long shadows, leaving indelible imprints on structural development. Moreover, population density emerges as a crucial factor, casting a spotlight on the disparities in the distribution of service institutions. This backdrop underscores the pressing need for optimization strategies thoughtfully tailored to the unique fabric of medium-sized cities. Several urban development methodologies have been identified to address this challenge, grounded in the principles of social organization and planning. The versatility of the presented model is acknowledged, allowing for the accommodation of various facility categories and the formulation of a mathematical-based analysis to optimize public services. The culmination of this chapter unfolds with the creation of an information model tailored to the public service network, thoughtfully considering the prospective evolution of Uzhhorod. However, this transcends the confines of this cityscape, extending its reach as a guide for the broader purpose of postwar reconstruction in Ukraine. It advocates for equitable service coverage, optimal resource utilization, and minimized service areas as essential factors in shaping sustainable urban communities. Ultimately, this chapter offers not only methodological principles but also pragmatic recommendations for enhancing the social and planning fabric of medium-sized cities. As Ukraine embarks on its postwar reconstruction journey, this research paves the way for the creation of inclusive and resilient urban environments, harmonizing local identities and needs. It embodies a vision for the future of Ukraine, characterized by prosperous and sustainable medium-sized cities at the heart of its resurgence.
