Book excerpt: There are specific topics which, in microcosm, bring together many of the strands of a whole society. The pressures at work in responding to the problems involved in these topics both in implementing and retarding their resolution, provide a unique insight into the strains of our time. In many ways, the subject of growth controls is a prime exemplar of this species. Grouped under this rubric are all the environmental concerns which are increasingly prominent: the natural limits of land-holding capacity, the trade-offs between intensive land use, and the physical limitations of earth and space. But these elements, while far from being defined, are much more finite than the particulars at the other end of the spectrum that of the character and individual substance and way of life, which revolve around the level of intensity of land use. For example, as we near the end of the twentieth century, an increasing demand is heard for a return to the simpler, more bucolic environment. Just as the suburb replaced the city as the prime location so the suburb in turn finds it very difficult to compete against the lures of the countryside. The drive towards exurbia, and with is greater levels of decentralization, and with it greater levels of decentralization becomes a dominant theme, at least for the affluent. All these and many other elements are at work within the simple title of Growth Management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new way forward for sustainable quality of life in cities of all sizes Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Build American Prosperity is a book of forward-thinking ideas that breaks with modern wisdom to present a new vision of urban development in the United States. Presenting the foundational ideas of the Strong Towns movement he co-founded, Charles Marohn explains why cities of all sizes continue to struggle to meet their basic needs, and reveals the new paradigm that can solve this longstanding problem. Inside, you’ll learn why inducing growth and development has been the conventional response to urban financial struggles—and why it just doesn’t work. New development and high-risk investing don’t generate enough wealth to support itself, and cities continue to struggle. Read this book to find out how cities large and small can focus on bottom-up investments to minimize risk and maximize their ability to strengthen the community financially and improve citizens’ quality of life. Develop in-depth knowledge of the underlying logic behind the “traditional” search for never-ending urban growth Learn practical solutions for ameliorating financial struggles through low-risk investment and a grassroots focus Gain insights and tools that can stop the vicious cycle of budget shortfalls and unexpected downturns Become a part of the Strong Towns revolution by shifting the focus away from top-down growth toward rebuilding American prosperity Strong Towns acknowledges that there is a problem with the American approach to growth and shows community leaders a new way forward. The Strong Towns response is a revolution in how we assemble the places we live.

Book excerpt: The goal of my study is to investigate the effects of the administrative procedures and underlying political and economic forces on the process of municipal annexation in Arizona. Annexations play a key role in growth and land use planning. Theoretical insights are drawn from the economic and political theories by geographers and planners including Molotch, Logan, Esparaza and Rusk, and municipal policy makers. These perspectives provide background and data for understanding the impacts on the case study areas. Gila Bend and Buckeye are chosen as the case study areas because Phoenix metropolitan growth is shifting towards southwestern Maricopa County. The geography in the case study areas is changing by the rapid conversion of farmlands into residential developments. I introduce annexation as a growth management tool, comparing smart growth and sprawl, and the impact of limited water resources in arid environments. Methodologically, I researched annexation first-hand by proposing municipal annexation of about 7000 acres of land into Gila Bend. Empirical and qualitative data document this research. My study of the history of annexation in Arizona is part of my methodology. I emphasize the use of maps and photographs for improved spatial visualization. Research and literature suggest that municipal annexation is profit-driven by underlying economic and political forces. The economic drivers of annexation are municipalities, developers and stakeholders. Farmers usually oppose annexation, because they want to preserve their rural way of life. Many environmentalists seek to limit growth and annexation. Annexation is a very political issue and city officials ultimately control its success or failure. The sustainability of water resources in the desert for residential and/or farming uses is argued. The effects of annexation are seen in leapfrogged development and exclusionary zoning policies. The pros and cons of annexation are compared, and annexation laws are introduced..

Download or read book Managing Growth in America's Communities written by Douglas R. Porter and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thoroughly revised edition of Managing Growth in America’s Communities, readers will learn the principles that guide intelligent planning for communities of any size, grasp the major issues in successfully managing growth, and discover what has actually worked in practice (and where and why). This clearly written book details how American communities have grappled with the challenges of planning for growth and the ways in which they are adapting new ideas about urban design, green building, and conservation. It describes the policies and programs they have implemented, and includes examples from towns and cities throughout the U.S. Growth management is essential today, as communities seek to control the location, impact, character, and timing of development in order to balance environmental and economic needs and concerns. The author, who is one of the nation’s leading authorities on managing community growth, provides examples from dozens of communities across the country, as well as state and regional approaches. Brief profiles present overviews of specific problems addressed, techniques utilized, results achieved, and contact information for further research. Informative sidebars offer additional perspectives from experts in growth management, including Robert Lang, Arthur C. Nelson, Erik Meyers, and others. In particular, he considers issues of population growth, eminent domain, and the importance of design, especially green design. He also reports on the latest ideas in sustainable development, smart growth, neighborhood design, transit-oriented development, and green infrastructure planning. Like its predecessor, the second edition of Managing Growth in America’s Communities is essential reading for anyone who is interested in how communities can grow intelligently.
