5.3.5 Architecture and spatial planning
The Environmental Planning Act (2002) defines the terms and procedures of community planning. It specifies more rigid requirements for planning within areas that are protected by the Heritage Conservation Act (see also
chapter 5.3.3) or by the Environment Protection Act (2004).
According to the Cultural Endowment of Estonia Act (1994), the state-owned Endowment is comprised of nine departments, one of which gives grants for architecture and research on architecture (see also
chapter 8.1.3).
