Summary/Abstract: The autonomy of the local government is one of the widely described in the professional literature subject. Whereas, the attention is seldom put on the symptoms of lawlessness and illegality of actions made by the local government authority. In practice they can take a form of groundless demands, which are directed into the parties, which are soliciting the right for something in the form of administrative decision. This study concerns, in particular, demands of building-architectural administrative authority, asking to enclose in the proposal for the building permit (within 7 days, counting from the day of the delivery of citation) the final administrative decision about excluding of lands from agricultural production. In spite of their illegality, the investors fulfill such demands for fear of being dragged on the administrative proceedings and for fear of negative decision of their proposal.
