Landuse Planning
  • What Is Landuse Planning?
  • Landuse Planning - a process for deciding the
    best present and future use of each parcel of
    land in an area

3

  • Corporate officers
  • Government agents
  • Leaders of institutions
  • Planning commissions
  • Military
  • Professional planners

4
Landuse Planning
  • What Is a Landuse Plan?
  • A policy decisionA formalized concept of what a
    company, city, or neighborhood intends for itself
    and thus will strive to become
  • An articulation of planning goals - the driving
    force behind landuse planning

Landuse Planning
  • Landuse Planning Realms
  • Three Planning Realms
  • Decision-Making Planning
  • Carried out by planning commissions and corporate
    boards
  • Developing methods and means for arriving at
    planning decisions

8
Landuse Planning
  • Landuse Planning Realms
  • Three Planning Realms
  • Technical Planning
  • Environmental inventories
  • Soil
  • Vegetation
  • Engineering
  • Environmental impact assessment

9
Landuse Planning
  • Landuse Planning Realms
  • Three Planning Realms
  • Technical Planning
  • Who does technical planning?
  • Geographers
  • Economists
  • Engineers
  • Scientists
  • Architects

10
Landuse Planning
  • Landuse Planning Realms
  • Three Planning Realms
  • Landscape Design
  • The laying out of the configuration of the uses,
    features, and facilities that are to be built,
    changed, or preserved by virtue of the
    decision-makers decisions

11
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity
  • Environmental Inventory
  • Site Assessment
  • Land Capability Assessment
  • Hazard Assessment
  • Risk Management Planning

12
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity
  • Restoration Planning
  • Site Selection
  • Feasibility Studies
  • Facilities Planning
  • Master Planning

13
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity
  • Environmental Inventory
  • Goal - to provide a catalog and description of
    features and resources of a study area
  • Underlying Philosophy - to understand what exists
    in an area before planning alternatives can be
    devised

14
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity
  • Environmental Inventory
  • Components
  • Water features
  • Slopes
  • Floodplains
  • Soil
  • Vegetation
  • Archeological artifacts
  • Rare and endangered species

15
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Site Assessment
  • A prepurchase environmental profile of a site
    highlighting whatever conditions might be
    important to land value or purchase agreements

16
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Site Assessment
  • Components
  • Phase I Assessment
  • Phase II Assessment

17
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Land Capability Assessment
  • Goal - to determine what types of use and how
    much use the land can accommodate without
    degradation

18
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Hazard Assessment
  • Goal - to identify dangerous zones in the
    environment where landuse is or would be in
    jeopardy of damage and destruction
  • Floods
  • Earthquakes

19
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Risk Management Planning
  • Goal - to build strategies and contingency plans
    to cope with hazards and provide emergency relief
    services

20
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Restoration Planning
  • Goal - to address environments such as wetlands,
    stream channels, and shorelines that have been
    degraded by landuse activites
  • Wetland mitigation
  • Waste disposal sites

21
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Site Selection
  • Goal - to find an appropriate site for a
    particular landuse
  • Environmental factors
  • Economic factors

22
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Feasibility Study
  • Goal - to determine the most appropriate landuse
    for a site

23
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Facility Planning
  • Goal - site, plan, and design installations that
    are depenent on structural and mechanical systems
  • Sewage treatment plants
  • Airports

24
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Master Planning
  • Goal - to present a comprehensive framework to
    guide landuse changes
  • Economic development
  • Environmental conditions
  • Demographics
  • Transportation

25
Landuse Planning
  • Areas of Activity in Landuse Planning
  • Master Planning
  • Components of Master Plan
  • Proposed landuses
  • Physical plan showing recommended locations and
    configurations of proposed landuses
  • Methodology for implementing the master plan that
    identifies funding sources

26
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • Local Governments
  • Zoning - process in which various parcels of land
    are designated for a certain use

27
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • Local Governments
  • Zoning
  • Zoning Categories
  • Commercial
  • Residential
  • Industrial
  • Floodplains
  • Forest Preserves

28
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • Local Governments
  • Zoning
  • Issues
  • Influenced by developers because local
    governments rely on property taxes
  • Favors high-priced housing and factories
  • Can be too strict and discourage use of
    innovative uses to solving urban problems

29
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • Local Governments
  • Permit Restrictions
  • Building permits
  • Sewer hookups
  • Road construction

30
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • State and Federal Governments
  • Conservation Easement - tax breaks to landowners
    who agree to use land only for specified purposes
    (e.g. agriculture)

31
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • State and Federal Governments
  • Taxation - tax land based on its use as
    agricultural land or forestland rather than its
    fair market value based on its economically
    highest potential use.
  • Prevents farmers and other landowners from being
    forced to sell land to pay their tax bills

32
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • State and Federal Governments
  • Land Trust - money designated to purchase
    ecologically valuable land this land is then
    off-limits to development
  • Land Development Rights - restrict the way land
    can be used

33
Landuse Planning
  • Methods of Landuse Control
  • State and Federal Governments
  • Environmental Impact Analysis
  • Subsidies
