Summary/Abstract: A landscape resolution is an optional tool to be used by municipal governments for shaping spatial order, in particular public space. A factor that is an important problem and causes a growing interest of municipalities in this tool is a growing number of advertisements and their increasingly aggressive nature. At the same time, the introduction of landscape resolutions faces various obstacles. It should, however, be implemented after consultation with residents and with their approval. The aim of the article is to broaden the knowledge about the local determinants for the introduction of the resolution and the ways in which it is perceived by residents. The analysis is based on surveys conducted in the municipality of Wiązowna in 2015 and 2022. According to the opinions of residents, an important factor differentiating the attitude towards the Act is costs or lost economic benefits. The case study is presented in a broader context of changes in attitudes towards landscape and natural environment protection and the role of perception of the value of nature and landscape.
