ResumeThe article analyzes the theoretical principles of functioning of the capable territorial communities. The scientific approaches to the interpretation of the categories "territorial community" and "capacity" are generalized, and on this basis it is proposed to consider the capacity of a territorial community as the availability of conditions (financial, infrastructural, personnel), the ability to ensure the proper level of public services and community development in the process, to assess and leverage potential for capacity building. The parameters of the capacity of a territorial community are determined according to the subject membership, elements of functional capacity and criterion signs of capacity achievement. It is important to distinguish between the capacity of a territorial community, firstly, as the ability to provide public services, and secondly, as opportunities for its socio-economic development. In view of this, evidence of the achievement of the goal of a functioning of a territorial community should primarily be the sectoral indicators for providing public services. Another important direction of capacity assessment is parameterization of the signs of community development. The author proves that opportunities for strengthening the capacity of territorial communities are based on the identification and utilization of their potential (investment, economic, managerial, financial, human, capacity of public participation) and are determined by increased levels of efficiency, quality and availability of public services, as well as community development in the long run. The conceptual foundations for strengthening the capacity of territorial communities based on the community-based approach, the essence of which identifies the strengths of the community and ensures its development, are outlined.
