Abstract
Facing urbanization challenges, climate change, and growing ecological awareness, proper management of green areas has become a priority for local authorities. In cities like Sandomierz, rich in tourist attractionst appeal, green spaces additionally enhance the attractiveness of public areas.Ongoing demographic growth and intensified urbanization are making it increasingly difficult to introduce new green spaces in Polish cities. Currently, greater importance is placed on acquiring land for residential and commercial develop-ment.In Poland, the maintenance of urban green areas is often the responsibility of local government units or specialized municipal service companies. In the case of Sandomierz, these tasks are carried out by the Municipal and Housing Man-agement Company in Sandomierz Ltd. An analysis of changes in the extent of urban green areas in recent years allows for an assessment of the effectiveness of maintenance and development efforts and highlights current challenges in this field.
