Development refers to the process of growth and change in order to progress. Integral development of a particular community implies general social, economic and environmental progress. So, the concepts of social and economic development are mostly clear, but the progress and development of the environment involves all the processes and interactions of man and his surroundings and vice versa. Since the local level is the level of everyday existence of an individual, the problems of local development are mainly problems of the individual. For this reason, local governments (municipal and city) have the particular challenge of establishing a model of integrated development management at the local level, since they are vitally interested in local development but are not fully competent and responsible. According to some recommendations within the local government framework, an organizational development management unit should be established. Challenges to an adequate model are reflected in organizational and human resources solutions. Organizational issues arise when this unit is set up at a low hierarchical level because it is an issue of influence or, on the other hand, too high and is subject to certain external influences or even subject to political distribution at the local level. On the other hand, human resources issues are related to the motivation and competencies of key persons in the organizational development management unit and thus their influence on certain development processes at the local level.
