The interest shared by a great number of stakeholders regarding urban development, the increasing role of environment issues and the need for a broad vision for managing cities, are all premises required for a strategic approach to urban management performance.

The results of the research indicate that the action directions required to obtain satisfactory levels of efficiency and effectiveness in urban management are: developing o strong habitation policy, locating economic activities, developing public equipment and planning urban transport.
