Abstract

Development activity is a basic human effort to improve the quality of life. Development activities may include the use of natural resources and the environment that their use must always take into account the carrying capacity of the environment in order to avoid loss of quality and environmental damage. Urban development frequently reflects the physical development of cities is determined more by the existing infrastructure. The symptoms of urban development in recent years have a tendency to minimize the open space of green spaces open, in particular, and also removes the face of nature. Growth and development of urban land converted into shops, residential, recreational, industry and others (Dahlan,1992: 19). The pace of city life that goes faster as rapid urban growth and the increase in the population with all its activities, resulting in a greater need for the construction of a space open to the public as a place to release part of the burden of his hard life in the big city. Effective of public open space, according to Carr, et al (1992), which covers at least three things that is sensible, democratic and significant. Media response to the needs of the individual and democratic media space open to public and could provide protection to individual rights, as well as the important point is the open public space could provide an opportunity for individuals relate to their personal lives and the environment in general. This is what affects the habits of users of the open public space and the direction of the policy of urban development, especially its use in the informal sector. The direction of the policy requires a form of intervention in the informal sector development, directly or indirectly. If the Government wants to help the development of the informal sector, without direct intervention, then the only form of Government is the issuance of policies that are appropriate to try to create an environment (external) are conducive to the development of economic activities in the sector. Including the creation of a system of free competition, but healthy and eliminate all kinds of distortions and other barriers. It is the duty of the Government is only as a sponsor, Stimulator, facilitator and regulator, stabilizer. Arrangement of open space that has a commercial value in order to create open space for all urban commercial humanist, it can be done with a commercial approach to open space which can be studied from the perspective of strategic value aspects of the location of open space in urban areas. The establishment of commercial open space in urban areas has strongly influenced from the presence of open spaces in urban environments, which has also influenced by factors in the policy or regulatory policy on urban open space and urban habits of factors that give commercial value to the urban open space.
