The purpose of the article is to outline the main components of the methodology of formation of systems for monitoring, planning and forecasting the development of housing and communal services of urban agglomerations. Methodology. The general scientific methods, in particular generalizations, comparisons – for the analysis of views of scientists concerning the basic components of methodology of formation of systems of monitoring, planning and forecasting of development of housing and communal services of city agglomerations are investigated. Results. It is noted that an important process in the management of housing and communal services is planning, forecasting and monitoring. The main stages, principles, components of the planning process are studied. The stages of forecasting the activity of housing and communal services are analyzed and improved. The monitoring system and the need to build on the obtained data analysis and evaluation are determined. It is proved that the main components of planning should include socio-economic analysis, PEST-analysis, SWOT-analysis, strategic focus. The basic principles of planning are presented, including: systemic and integrated approaches, leadership and vision, creativity and creativity, involvement of stakeholders, transition from closed economies to open global systems, focus on achieving strategic goals, flexibility and adaptability, efficiency and focus, transparency and accountability, increasing competitiveness. The need to use non-traditional innovative methods in planning, such as the “CLEAR” model and the foresight methodology, is noted. Both involve stakeholders in the planning process. The system of principles and results of using regional and local foresight is given. The necessity of improving the stages of forecasting the housing and communal services of urban agglomerations is substantiated, as the previous ones determine separately the impact of tariff increase for the population on the amount of net income and gross profit, the impact of increased receivables and rarely apply bankruptcy models, claiming that these companies can not go bankrupt. The stages of forecasting of housing and communal services are offered taking into account complex components of change of size of net income and gross profit, at increase of the tariff for the population, at increase in the amount of receivables and taking into account values of models of bankruptcy. We propose to define the state of activity of housing and communal services as stable, unstable and crisis. Monitoring is a mandatory and final stage of planning. It should be carried out when analyzing the implementation of the program objectives and strategies of urban agglomerations, when assessing the actual state and development of housing and communal services or when achieving the goals of the program. Monitoring of the transformation of housing and communal services of urban agglomerations should be based on the analysis of the state of implementation of regulatory and legal and scientific and technical support of the program, the state of development and implementation of regional programs (measures) of development. Practical meaning. Improving the process of forecasting the activities of housing and communal services of urban agglomerations proves to effectively create financial plans. Prospects for further research. Studies of the methodology of formation of systems for planning and forecasting the development of housing and communal services of urban agglomerations provide grounds for further i
