Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project consists of a study of the Redevelopment Agencies (RDAs) throughout California and the most recent actions from the Supreme Court shutting down more than 400 RDAs. Prior to the dissolution, RDAs "received over $5 billion in property tax revenues annually and had tens of billions of dollars of outstanding bonds, contracts, and loans." (O'Malley, 3) Due to the most recent ruling by the California Supreme Court, approximately 400 RDAs has been eliminated, leaving many questions unanswered. The purpose of RDAs was to promote local economic development in blighted urban areas. Redevelopment activities create jobs and expand businesses opportunities, provide housing for families most in need, and help reduce crime. However, many state audits throughout California concluded cities were not spending the RDAs funds correctly. On December 29, 2011, the Supreme Court upheld its decision in the California Redevelopment Association v. Ann Matosantos case, finding Assembly Bill X1 26 (AB X1 26). This meant RDAs throughout California had to "...freeze any new debt, loans, grants or acquiring any new assets or new contracts." (O'Malley, 9) The primary role of the successor agency is to make sure payments and any pending obligations with projects must be paid. An "Oversight Board" consist of seven members to assist as the successor agency. With the elimination of the redevelopment agencies leaves many worries for cities to see growth and job increases without the assistances of the state.

Book excerpt: Resilient Downtowns provides a guide to communities in reviving and redeveloping their core districts into resilient, thriving neighborhoods. While the National Main Street program’s four-point approach of organization, promotion, economic restructuring, and design has been standard practice for cities seeking to rejuvenate their downtowns for decades there is disquiet among downtown managers and civic leaders about the versatility of the program. Resilient Downtowns provides communities with the "en-RICHED" approach, a four-step process for downtown development, which focuses on residential development, immigration strategies, civic functionality, heritage tourism, and good design practice. Examples from fourteen small cities across the US show how this process can revitalize downtowns in any city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book takes a wide-angled look at how the field of community development is evolving in an era of reduced resources, changing priorities, privatization, competition, and performance management at the federal, state, and local government levels, as well as for non-profits and private sector entities. It shows how community development organizations and programs are offering many new services, entering into new partnerships, developing extensive networks, and attracting new and alternative sources of funding - and how, in the process, these organizations are becoming more innovative, leaner in their operations, more competitive, and much more effective than ever before.Students, researchers, and policy-makers will all appreciate the numerous policy examples from the local, state, and federal levels, including a wide range of developments in housing, transportation, smart growth, education, and crime prevention. "Reengineering Community Development for the 21st Century" is an invaluable source for insights into the latest developments in community development financing and performance management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unwinding the unsustainable ways in which we’ve built our communities over the last half-century is the most pressing challenge confronting planning, design and development today. Utilizing a dozen case studies from throughout North America, Unsprawl examines the visionary, controversial and ultimately successful strategies employed to introduce new patterns of development into a regulatory, cultural and financial landscape structured to encourage sprawl. As architect Galina Tachieva notes in her foreword, “Whether they are downtown redevelopments, new greenfield villages, retrofits or ambitious sustainability experiments, the projects in this book demonstrate the long-needed revival of our thinking about urbanism.”
