Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land Use Planning Under Way UP and down the land during the last year, farm men and women have organized themselves into community and county land use planning committees. In counties in 47 States they are sitting down with representatives of Federal, State, and local agencies to develop agricultural plans, policies and programs for their counties. These committees are planning for action by individuals, by groups, or by public agencies. What sort of problems are the committees tackling? How are they trying to solve these problems? What results have they achieved? Where are the committees located? What about the size and composition of the county committees? Of the community committees? These are just a few of the questions that have been asked since the United States Department of Agriculture and the land-grant colleges agreed to cooperate in sponsoring land use planning by farmers. This publication has been prepared to answer many such questions. But first it is necessary to consider briefly a few more basic questions. What is county land use planning in the first place? How did it come about? How does it work? Let us start with the question, What is county land use planning? It is a cooperative effort on the part of representative farmers, various agencies of the Department of Agriculture, the land-grant colleges, and other State and local agencies to work out agricultural plans and policies that will (1) aid in coordinating various agricultural programs so that they will fit together into a well-rounded whole, (2) help them function most effectively toward long-time as well as emergency goals, and (3) develop any new programs that are needed.

This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land Planning in the United States for the City, State and Nation The present work of Miss James marks an advance over earlier works on city planning. Planning may be regarded as the heart of our agricultural as well as our urban land problems. Prudent utilization of all our natural resources is not possible unless planning extends to all the other forms of the utilization of land, and this means that our mineral resources, water resources and forests must be planned both for the present and for the future. In other words, conservation is a problem of planning. Practice in our own country is very generally broadening its scope so as to take in the utilization of various classes of land. City planning is now making way for regional planning, or, perhaps one should say, is becoming part and parcel of regional planning. It is quite evident that the regions surrounding an incorporated city are closely tied to it, even before they gradually become united to it legally. The metropolitan area must be planned out carefully if we are to have the kind of cities we desire, and the earlier the planning the larger the results accomplished with given expenditures. We see clearly on every hand the enormous loss involved in rectifying mistakes that could easily have been avoided with wise planning. But many yet do not see that agricultural prosperity, and consequently the prosperity of the country as a whole, depends upon the planned out utilization of agricultural land. Moreover, the utilization of agricultural land cannot be well planned unless agriculture is considered in its relations to utilization of land for forests, for recreational purposes, for urban uses and all other possible uses.

This book was released on 2018-10-15 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from County Land Use Planning The same era that brought to many farms the benefits of automobiles, motortrucks, tractors, electricity, radio, and good roads also brought the end of free lands and a declining foreign demand for the produce of new acres. It brought the farmer face to face with problems of low income and of soil depletion and erosion. It brought the Nation face to face with the fact that land resources, wrongly managed, are exhaustible and that we have been exhausting them at a rapid rate. Failing markets and depressed prices for farm produce impelled the individual farmer to cut costs and to produce as much as he could for as little as he could. It was hard on the farmer and hard on the land. It was hard on the rest of the Nation as well, for the farmer, receiving little for his produce, was able to buy little of what city workers produced. Both town and country suffered. In addition to current problems, in the future hung the specter of vast regions turned into wastes by deforestation and by wind and water erosion. No longer was the farm problem the old one of how each farmer could produce more at less cost. Congress, in a series of enactments, directed the establishment of national programs to help people on the land conserve the soil, to help farmers own their own lands, to help needy farmers make a better living, to help farmers with programs of adjustment and conservation. State legislatures acted to supplement these programs. Agriculture had come to a point where the efforts of each individual farmer struggling to improve his own income did not add up to the greatest good for farmers as a group, nor for the Nation. As a result, farmers realized that they had to act together, in many new ways, if they were to help themselves. Prepared by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics in cooperation with the Extension Service, the Farm Security Administration, the Soil Conservation Service, and the Agricultural Adjustment Administration, United States Depart ment of Agriculture.

Download or read book Ecologically Based Municipal Land Use Planning written by William B Honachefsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-03 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the decades following the first Earth Day in 1970, a generation has been enlightened about the unspeakable damage done to our planet. Federal, state, and local governments generated laws and regulations to control development and protect the environment. Local governments have developed environmental standards addressing their needs. The result-an ecologically incongruous pattern of land development known as urban sprawl. Local land use planners can have a greater effect on the quality of our environment than all of the federal and state regulators combined. Historically, they have existed on the periphery of land management. The author suggests that federal and state environmental regulators need to incorporate local governments into their environmental protection plans. Ecologically Based Municipal Land Use Planning provides easily understood, nuts and bolts solutions for controlling urban sprawl, emphasizing the integration of federal, state, and local land use plans. The book discusses ecological resources and provides practical solutions that municipal planners can implement immediately. It discusses the most recent scientific data, how to extract what is important, and how to apply it to the local land planning process. The author includes the application of the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to problem solving. Despite compelling evidence and sound arguments favoring the implementation of an ecologically sensitive approach to land use planning, municipal planners, in general, remain skeptical. It will take considerably more encouragement and education to win them over completely. Ecologically Based Municipal Land Use Planning makes the case for sound land use policies that will reduce sprawl.

This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land Development Plan, Greenville, N. C The first three elements listed above are included in this publication titled Land Development Plan of Greenville, n.c. The major land use objectives set forth in the Plan constitute the basis according to which the zoning ordinance currently in use will be revised. Although the adopted Thoroughfare Plan was formulated a scant three years before, several elements contained therein are already obsolete and prompt revisions are needed in accordance with the Land Development Plan. Among the various elements of this contract the Land Use Plan is, therefore, a pivotal study. Of the other contractual elements, the Population and Economy Study has been published by the Division of Community Planning in 1965. A Governmental Space Study has been published in 1966, and a Neighborhood Analysis will be published in the latter part of 1966. The extensively revised Zoning Ordinance will be published upon its adoption by the local legislative body.

This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Master Plan of Land Use Proposed by the City Planning Commission The orderly progress of the City of New York requires a Master Plan. The drafting of such a Plan is a stupendous undertaking which may have a profound influence on taxes, on real estate and on the future of the entire City. The area covered by the five boroughs is extensive and varied and the items under consideration are manifold. There are many powerful activities in the community whose relationships are complicated and vital. Your Committee has conferred with engineers and city planners, officials of railroads and public utilities, with social agencies and owners of property, with business men and loaning institutions. It has consulted with and received reports from Messrs. Ernest P. Goodrich and Arthur S. Tuttle. The consensus is that the proposed Master Plan of Land Use should be modified and then resubmitted at a public hearing before formal adoption: We are informed that the Planning Commission itself is to a large extent in agreement with that conclusion and is now at work on some revisions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roles of Government in the Land Use Planning in the Great Plains The status of land use legislation was reviewed at the federal and state levels of government. There has been much committee action at the federal level the last few years but few bills have passed and the prospects for l976 have not improved. Although Wyoming enacted a statewide land use bill, l975 saw a shifting away from sweeping land use proposals toward more limited and specific proposals to protect the environment, regulate floodplains, guide development of key facilities and require cities and counties to prepare local land use plans. Activities at the federal level have been toward more inter and intra-departmental coordination of land use planning programs. Major land use problems and current legislation were summarized for the ten Great Plains States. The most often mentioned problems were soil erosion and sedimentation, preservation of prime agricultural land and the subdivision of rural lands.
