Summary/Abstract: Each local government unit, in particular a commune, aims to meet collective and individual citizen’s needs, arising from living in a local community. This objective may be delivered by undertaking appropriate operations related to, among others, setting strategic directions for development of a commune. A core element in planning development is a strategy for development of a commune and projects crafted on its basis. To manage projects in an adequate manner, a commune’s structure involves specific project teams tasked with completion of numerous tasks connected with satisfying local needs of multiple interest groups while keeping the financial costs as low as possible and rationally spending public funds. The article illustrates the role of local public-private partnerships in managing investments projects in local government units with a special focus on an innovative project of setting up council housing in Siedlce.
