Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new way forward for sustainable quality of life in cities of all sizes Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Build American Prosperity is a book of forward-thinking ideas that breaks with modern wisdom to present a new vision of urban development in the United States. Presenting the foundational ideas of the Strong Towns movement he co-founded, Charles Marohn explains why cities of all sizes continue to struggle to meet their basic needs, and reveals the new paradigm that can solve this longstanding problem. Inside, you’ll learn why inducing growth and development has been the conventional response to urban financial struggles—and why it just doesn’t work. New development and high-risk investing don’t generate enough wealth to support itself, and cities continue to struggle. Read this book to find out how cities large and small can focus on bottom-up investments to minimize risk and maximize their ability to strengthen the community financially and improve citizens’ quality of life. Develop in-depth knowledge of the underlying logic behind the “traditional” search for never-ending urban growth Learn practical solutions for ameliorating financial struggles through low-risk investment and a grassroots focus Gain insights and tools that can stop the vicious cycle of budget shortfalls and unexpected downturns Become a part of the Strong Towns revolution by shifting the focus away from top-down growth toward rebuilding American prosperity Strong Towns acknowledges that there is a problem with the American approach to growth and shows community leaders a new way forward. The Strong Towns response is a revolution in how we assemble the places we live.

Book Forces Shaping Urban Development

Download or read book Forces Shaping Urban Development written by L. A. Dougharty and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents an examination of the impact of the property tax on several dimensions of urban structure. Those dimensions considered are blight, capital density, and leapfrogging. For each dimension previous research is reviewed, and theoretical models of the relationship between the tax and the impact are constructed. Both the level of the property tax and assessment practices were examined in the models dealing with urban blight. It was found that assessment practices that used depreciated value rather than market value as the basis for assessment would encourage urban blight. Similarly, the level of the tax could also be detrimental to the level of housing services that are offered. A model of individual entrepreneurial behavior was used in examining the impact of the property tax on capital density. It is shown that the level of the property tax has no bearing on capital density, but the composition of the tax (tax on land versus capital) can have important effects. The various causes of leapfrogging are discussed. It appears that any impact of the property tax is overshadowed by other forces at work in the urban environment. In fact, some of the research reviewed implies that the property tax may actually inhibit leapfrogging.
