The management mechanism of economic and legal support of city openness has been studied; it is defined as a set of interconnected processes, methods and tools used to organize interaction between elements of the city system in order to achieve key economic interests, form integrated urban solutions in vector movement towards the strategic goals of sustainable, open and smart-oriented development of the urban environment. Openness and resilience, which are the fundamental concepts of sustainable development of modern cities, are considered, it is noted that their implementation must be coordinated and harmonized with other urban development programs to ensure a comprehensive approach and unification of management measures.
The key aspects that should be taken into account in the formation of the mechanism for ensuring city openness have been outlined, namely: the role of participatory approach to urban governance, the specifics of external and internal factors of influence, the evolution of the conceptual vision of city development. The city openness is studied as a phenomenon that belongs to complex phenomena and manifests itself in a complex form of the influence of dialectically interacting multidirectional global and local processes; dualism in the system of socio-economic relations of city development agents; cause-and-effect relationship with the processes of global integration, innovatization, informatization and socialization. The economic, management and legal tools for ensuring city openness are outlined.
It is noted that legal tools are the starting point and driver for ensuring city openness, as they form the basis for ensuring accountability in city governance, openness and transparency of fiscal processes and administrative procedures. It is proven that the comprehensive use of economic, management and legal tools for ensuring city openness and transparency allows launching a chain of changes of technological, management and social nature. The key problems of economic and legal support of city openness from the perspective of object-subject composition of urban relations are outlined.
