In the former political-economic context, new types of small settlements called “avan,” and sometimes entire cities, were constructed around factories to supply and service industries and industrial areas. Following the dissolution of this formation, most of the land plots occupied by former industries lost their supply chain connections and importance, becoming gaping voids—territories of decaying industrial enterprises. These enterprises, having lost their primary functions, became abandoned areas with no new purpose. Meanwhile, nearby highly urbanized residential areas lack space for expansion. The most effective global solution to this situation is considered the renovation of degrading industrial facilities and the territories they occupy, repurposing them for new functions. The transition to the dominance of service production over goods production, including "social services" (education, healthcare, household services, entertainment) as opposed to "services to producers," has been studied, focusing on defining the characteristics of postindustrialism. These characteristics are related to changes in employment structure, with a significant shift toward the service sector. Additionally, the selection of strategic directions for Charentsavan's urban planning complex development has been examined. This involves sustainable community development, creating a safe and healthy biosphere for living, ensuring the preservation of natural and cultural heritage, and developing more efficient internal reserves through the reconstruction of former industrial zones, adapting them to meet citizens' needs.
