THE INCOME SITUATION OF EASTERN POLAND CITIES WITH THE POVIAT RIGHTS AND THE SPATIAL DIFFERENTIATION OF DEVELOPMENT
Journal Title: INTERCATHEDRA - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 37
Abstract
Municipal government units assume the role of employer, principal, client and investor. Their property management, service delivery or financial management activities have an impact on the local economy. Financial resources are the basis for the operation of local government units and a condition for the fulfillment of their tasks. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to analyze the differences in profitability across urban districts of Eastern Poland in the context of regional disparities in development. A synthetic indicator will be used for that purpose. The financial situation in 2008, 2012 and 2016 was assessed based on source material from the Local Data Bank of the Central Statistical Office. Activities at district level are a heterogeneous category. Geographic location, financial standing, economic and infrastructural potential, and natural resources all have an impact on the activity and development of districts. Also, these factors provide a framework for the operation of local government units and are the condition for the fulfillment of their tasks. The synthetic indicators varied in the range from 0.33 to 0.60 in 2008, from 0.33 to 0.59 in 2012, and from 0.31 to 0.60 in 2016. Throughout the study period, Rzeszów, Olsztyn, Lublin and Białystok were the top-ranked units. While Kielce also performed well, Chełm, Przemyśl, Tarnobrzeg and Łomża ranked at the bottom.
