Regulation?

Abstract
Urban sprawl in Jakarta Metropolitan Area (JMA) happens due to the rapid urbanisation which resulted
inefficient and unsustainable growth in JMA. This condition exacerbates by absence of integrated
spatial plan and fragmented local government priorities. This paper examines the extent to which
synchronization of zoning regulation in JMA can be used as means to managing JMA urban growth
and thus reducing the negative effect on urban sprawl. As part of spatial plan integration in managing
urban sprawl, local government in JMA needs to provide supporting arrangements of spatial plans
which are public transportation and housing provision.

Research Methodology
A qualitative methodology is applied in this paper
on the spatial plan policy integration of the JMA.
This paper also attempts to evaluate the spatial
planning process in metropolitan areas as their
policy in managing urban growth, using JMA as
the case study. To obtain relevant data for
analysis, data collection for this paper carried out
through desk study and interviews.
Most of desk study data obtained from official
website policy documents and previous research.
Data from official website mostly from
government agency which responsible to provide
official information such as BPS (central bureau
of statistics), national agency related to spatial
planning such as BKPRN (national spatial
planning coordination board) and Ministry of
Agrarian and Spatial Plan website, and local
government official website. The collected policy
document mostly consist of regulation and spatial
plan document related to metropolitan and/or
JMA development.
Collection of previous
research focused on the spatial plan aspect of
JMA which mostly release after the release of
Indonesia spatial planning law, which is 2007.
Interviews is held by using semi structure
interview approach of several JMAs spatial
planning actors representing central government

Conclusion
Rapid urbanization in JMA is marked by high
population growth and massive expansion of
built-up areas, leading to a sprawled condition in
JMA urban landscape.
Inability of local
governments to quickly promulgated zoning
regulation as development control tools
combined
with
fragmented
institutional
landscape among local governments exacerbate
the situation. JMA case presented in this paper
provides an example of how poor metropolitan
governance in spatial planning might contribute
to severe urban sprawl.
There is a mismatch between macro and micro
level of JMA spatial plan. Integration of spatial
plan as an effort to deal with this mismatch also
is confronted with several supporting and
hindering factors.
The hierarchical spatial
planning system equipped with standardized
procedure still unable to overcome JMA urban
sprawl. At macro level, JMA spatial plan as the
strategic guidance has its own fragility in spatial
pattern designation and development controls
arrangement. Meanwhile at micro level, local
governments diverse priorities become the main
reason and justification to their tardiness in
making and implementing their zoning regulation.
Culture of willingness to cooperate in most JMA
stakeholders also hindered by differences in
budgeting power, which confirms the fragmented
local governments in JMA.
There are several important aspects that JMA
needs to learn. First, local governments in JMA
need to recognize the importance of establishing
single consent on JMA urban growth strategy.
Second, local governments in JMA need to
synchronize their zoning regulation so they could
steer clear of fragmented development
arrangements. Third, local governments in JMA
need to enhance its coordination agency to
become a strong and inclusive coordinating
agency that has authority to monitor and
evaluate the implementation of spatial plan both
at metropolitan and local government levels.
