Summary/Abstract: Public authorities practically have no noticeable influence on the development of land relations. This necessitates the transfer of the full power of authorities to local governments for land management. This can be achieved by decentralizing governance, adherence to the principle of universality of local self-government, which should take place throughout the country without any restrictions. This approach will allow the administrative-territorial units to have content resources in their own assets (land outside of settlements), as well as management tools for its effective application.
