<![CDATA[This study analyzes the legal challenges in spatial planning and land management in urban areas based on Law Number 26 of 2007 concerning Spatial Planning, using descriptive research methods to describe spatial conditions and provide rational and balanced interpretations. The results of the study indicate that the main problems in spatial management include the preparation of spatial plans that are still hampered by complex and bureaucratic procedures, policy implementation that is often not in accordance with the plan due to regulatory disharmony between the central and regional governments, and weak supervision that causes rampant violations of spatial planning without effective sanctions. In addition, suboptimal coordination between related sectors and the lack of capacity of local governments to utilize information technology, such as geographic information systems (GIS), also hamper efficient and adaptive spatial management of urban dynamics. Strategic efforts are needed in the form of simplifying spatial revision procedures, harmonizing central and regional policies, strengthening supervisory institutions by increasing their authority and capacity, stricter law enforcement against spatial violations, and improving community involvement in spatial supervision to create a more sustainable, responsive, and in-line spatial planning system with socio-economic developments in urban areas.]]>
