Description
Summary:Urban agglomeration is an effective way of providing additional impetus to the development of major cities and surrounding areas. Realization of this advantage is hampered by the fragmentation of municipalities, resulting in the formation of urban agglomerations around the administrative centers of constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The authors of this study propose to consider the possibility of integration of municipal entities forming in the future agglomeration, inter-municipal Association, with a subsequent transition to the formation of a unified municipal formation. Such a decision is justified by the example of the agglomeration of the regional center of the Kirov region – Kirov and surrounding areas.
