Summary

Summary

A number of US states have recently developed innovative growth management plans with the aim of preserving their environments and meeting the rising backlog of unmet infrastructure needs while sustaining economic growth. This volume outlines the current US experience with growth management planning through a thorough examination of the issues involved. It explores individual state′s experiences and goes on to examine more specific aspects: environmental protection, economic imperatives, transportation demand and housing evaluation. The book concludes with a look to the future and discusses the emerging problems and innovative concepts in the field.
