This study aims to clarify the relationship between Urban Function Guided Area (UFGA) in Location Normalization Plan (LNP) and suburban commercial concentrated area, and problems regarding setting UFGA in non-area divided cities. Through the case studies of 6 cities, where the commercial functions have suburbanized while the old city center still exists, the designation of UFGA such as roadside areas and areas around large-scale shopping centers is confirmed. The problem in setting UFGA in non-area divided cities are: 1) the city planning which has been in operation so far and does not correspond to the current urban situation, limits setting UFGA ; 2) UFGA is set based on standards that deviate from the actual living conditions of citizens; and 3) LNP has limited measures to regulate commercial development outside UFGA as Urbanization control areas are not designated in non-area divided city.
