wider plan which was not drawn up by the municipality
Explanation:
I think it all depends on the interlocutors in this document. If this is a document produced by a consortium, then they need to say who is responsible for the piano regolatore, whereas if it is the municipality then they may only need to say that it is not their responsibility. It is of course potentially a problem to say that it is the province who is responsible, as Simon did, as we have no real indication that it is so, except that the authority covers a wider geographical area than the comune.

In his answer, Anthony, makes reference to the “municipality”, than he questions who the interlocutor is.
In my opinion, this document have been written by the company, “Consorzio” who owns the land, but the said land is subject to a regulatory plan which is of the provincial (state in US, departmental in France) authority; “sovracomunale”.

Therefore I am confident in my answer being the closest to the original.
