Discussion on the Mechanism and Path of Multi Agent Linkage to Promote County Town Urbanization

China’s 14th Five Year Plan proposes to promote urbanization construction with county towns as an important carrier, ushering in unprecedented opportunities for county town urbanization development. This article analyzes the macro environment faced by promoting urbanization with county towns as an important carrier from the perspectives of national development strategy, industry policy development, local government status, and enterprise development demands. By analyzing the current development status and difficulties of the old urban area, expanded areas, and surrounding towns in the county town, a concept of spatial integration of county town urbanization based on “three-level gradient integration” is proposed. Based on the theory of urban governance and the characteristics of county town urbanization, the mechanism of multi-agent linkage to promote county town urbanization was explored and sorted out. Subsequently, based on policy analysis such as land acquisition and integrated land improvement, and based on models such as “Investor + EPC + O” and ROT, a path for promoting county town urbanization through the linkage of government, enterprises, and residents is proposed, providing a reference for promoting urbanization with county town as an important carrier.
