Land Use and Society: Geography, Law, and Public PolicyIsland Press, 1996 - 507 sivua Land Use and Society: Geography, Law, and Public Policy examines the history, current practice, and unmet needs of land use planning and regulation in the United States. Topics covered include the interaction of geography and law in land use policy; important land use legal cases in the United States over the past century, including current takings law; techniques employed by state and local governments to steer private developers into responsible growth practices; and the protection of wetlands, floodplains, coastal zones, and agricultural areas. This completely revised, expanded, and updated edition of Land Use Control (1991) retains the historical flavor and approach of the original while strengthening its discussion of contemporary U.S. land use programs and legal issues. Included are updated discussions of the "taking issue", the Endangered Species Act, and urban greenway planning. |
