Abstract
Currently, numerous studies are focused on developing effective mechanisms for sustainable forest management, including those ensuring the conservation and restoration of forest and other green plantings in cases where damage is caused by various factors. However, the issues related to the assessment of damage to urban green plantings remain insufficiently studied, as the existing legislation and judicial practice in this area have not yet been subjected to comprehensive generalization and systematic scientific analysis. In this context, the present study formulates recommendations for establishing mechanisms to assess damage to green plantings in populated areas based on an analysis of the current legislation of the Russian Federation and judicial practice formed within the Russian Federation during the period from 2015 to 2024 years. The research findings may be applied in public administration to ensure the preservation of green plantings as an important component of the sustainable development of urbanized territories, including in the drafting of regulatory legal acts governing the procedure for assessing damage to green plantings.
