Abstract
For Chile, a country with a wide geographical diversity, the territorial planning instruments (IPT) are relevant and essential. However, its existence is not enough since the context and the moment in which they take effect are also important. This proposal reviews the shortage and obsolescence of the Regulatory Intercommunal Plan and the Metropolitan Valparaiso Master Plan, which are key elements for the urban development and the coastal planning, but that, at the same time, have produced situations, processes or externalities associated with lack of consistency in the referred instruments. This paper illustrates the main problems of the Valparaiso metropolitan area and its relationship with the intercommunal instrument. Some difficulties to be addressed by the new metropolitan regulation instrument for Valparaiso are identified due to the interests that converge in the area and the difficulties of the current mechanisms for citizen participation, including some sustainability challenges that the development of our cities poses.
