Abstract

Urban centers’ spontaneous and disordered occupation processes bring difficulty to harmonic development in cities. Such processes cause excessive extension of urban tissue, disturbing infrastructure and basic services implantation. Besides its contribution to functional disintegration of urban space, spontaneous occupation makes transport net implementation and planning harder. In Campos dos Goytacazes city, studied in the present work, as in other Brazilian cities, that type of occupation occur in a huge variety of environments, of which urban lagoons can be detached. This research aimed to enlighten this phenomenon in the region of Vigário Lagoon, in order to propose environmental mitigating measures and legal adequacy strategies to guarantee environmental quality for resident and nearby population.
