Planning

Planning has to do with thinking through the possibilities and consequences involved before acting. Under the Planning and Building Act, planning is based on a popularly elected administration and participation by residents in the local authorities (municipalities) and counties. The Government and the Storting (Parliament) set national targets around which the local and regional authorities base their planning decisions.
