Progetto “Spungone”. Dal geosito al piano-sistema di organizzazione territoriale

The project concerns an area in the Province of Forli-Cesena that takes its name from the geological formation known as the ''Spungone''. The local authorities at every level were involved in the drawing up of the plan: the Region of Emilia Romagna, the Province of Forli-Cesena, the Municipalities of Castrocaro Terme-Terra del Sole, Predappio, Meldola and Bertinoro, and the Mountainous Community of the Apennine area around Forli. From an operational point of view, an innovative approach was used. This included a ''network of photographs'' as a form of graphic representation, which greatly facilitated communication between planners and administrators. By identifying sensitive areas and places, the study determines a system of territorial indicators (risks and values), around which a network of actions is developed to enhance the entire area of the Spungone and which constitutes the basis for a different modus agendi, aimed at environmental sustainability and the joint management of the area. Il progetto investe un ambito territoriale della provincia di Forlì-Cesena di circa 35 Kmq connotato paesaggisticamente dalla formazione geologica dello ''Spungone'' (calcari arenacei organogeni di età pliocenica immersi in argille). Alla redazione del piano-sistema hanno collaborato attivamente le Amministrazioni coinvolte territorialmente nel quadro delle Leggi Regionali 47/92 e 20/2000.
