Abstract
Brazilian urban policy establishes the IPTU (Urban Land and Territorial Tax) as a tax that, not
only has collection potential but can also be understood as an instrument of intervention in the
urban and territorial management processes available to municipalities. However, based on
the analysis of the literature about the experiences of Brazilian cities, it is noticed that
municipalities constantly complain about the absence of their own resources and depend on
government transfers in order to execute their projects. On the other hand, most of the
municipal administrators do not usually implement and manage adequately the instruments of
recovery of urban surplus value, failing to improve the incomes that, besides being necessary,
should, by right, return to the city. In this context, it is noticed that Parnamirim-RN (BRA)
underuse the legally determined potentiality of IPTU, and there are difficulties in making it
effective through municipal management. From that perspective a question arises: has IPTU
been implemented effectively by Municipal Management of Parnamirim, in order to guarantee
the public recovery of the benefits that comes from the implementation of urban infrastructure
in the municipality? Thus, the general objective of the research is to understand to what extent
the municipal management of Parnamirim is able to recapture the land assets generated by
the provision of urban infrastructure through the collection of IPTU. As for the specific
objectives, it is intended to deepen the discussion about the potential of the IPTU to recover
capital gains; to investigate the characteristics, evolution and management of the IPTU in
Parnamirim between 2009 and 2017; to know the offer of urban infrastructure of the
municipality of Parnamirim; to verify the real estate valuation in the districts of Parnamirim
between the years of 2013 and 2017, comparing the real estate valuation with the collection
of the IPTU in the districts analyzed in 2017. For that, a bibliographic study was done
contemplating the pertinent concepts and the related literature and a documentary analysis on
the legislation of the municipality; In addition to that, a field survey was conducted to collect
data on the municipal collection of IPTU in 2017 and on the valuation of real estate in the last
5 (five) years, followed by a survey on infrastructure works between 2008 and 2017. Finally,
interviews with municipal managers were conducted, as well as the follow-up of a public
hearing about IPTU, aiming to understand how the local actors understand the role of IPTU for
local urban dynamics as an instrument of urban policy.
