Diretrizes para a regularização urbanística de comunidade de interesse social em áreas de encosta: o caso da Rosa Mística em Campina Grande - PB.

Abstract

The spontaneous and inadequate occupation of land with irregular relief is one of the main risk factors for the population of precarious settlements, demanding investigation of ways to avoid or reduce situations of insecurity and instability in the urban slopes, besides the possibilities for the Integration of the those areas into the formal city. The case study considers the Rosa Mística community in Campina Grande - PB, inserted within the confines of Conceição, Louzeiro and Alto Branco neigbourhoods. The community shows precarious characteristics in some areas of its occupation where part of the population has settled in geological risk sectors characterized by civil defense as the Preservation Zone of the Louzeiro Forest and along the Riacho das Piabas, in a situation of land illegality, dangers of floods and landslides that can affect the resident population in these sites. The methodology adopted in this research was adapted to the characterization and mapping of the settlements, aiming to support future interventions and give directions for an urbanization and adequate occupation of terrains with rugged topography. The objective is to analyze the self-built settlements and studying alternatives for its urbanization. As a result, it provides guidelines and proposals for an intervention in the analyzed community. The research has concluded, from the study of the area, that it is necessary to continuous action to achieve the goal of preventing environmental disasters and the needs of urban regularization in the settlement.
