Summary/Abstract: Poland’s preparation for the membership and then entry to the European Union and an active participation in its structures are the main factors that have determined and will still determine changes and adjustments in the institutional area. Before starting the research it was assumed that changes on a local level are part of institutional adjustments on the state level. The aim of this work is a general identification of these adjustments on the central level and on the level of local government, with the example of the city of Elbląg. Adjustments in five areas on the central level, which are directly connected with economic activity, are presented in this work. A total amount of local governments’ investments and their institutional background on a city level is given here. The whole work ends with a summary and conclusions.
