Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mission of the Urban and Regional Policy and Its Effects series is to inform policymakers, practitioners, and scholars about the effectiveness of select policy approaches, reforms, and experiments in addressing the key social and economic problems facing today's cities, suburbs, and metropolitan areas. Volume four of the series introduces and examines thoroughly the concept of regional resilience, explaining how resilience can be promoted—or impeded—by regional characteristics and public policies. The authors illuminate how the walls that now segment metropolitan regions across political jurisdictions and across institutions—and the gaps that separate federal laws from regional realities—have to be bridged in order for regions to cultivate resilience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban and Regional Policy and Its Effects, the third in a series, sets out to inform policymakers, practitioners, and scholars about the effectiveness of select policy approaches, reforms, and experiments in addressing key social and economic problems facing cities, suburbs, and metropolitan areas. The chapters analyze responses to five key policy challenges that most metropolitan areas and local communities face: • Creating quality neighborhoods for families • Governing effectively • Building human capital • Growing the middle class • Enlarging a competitive economy through industry-based strategies • Managing the spatial pattern of metropolitan growth and development Each chapter discusses a specific topic under one of these challenges. The authors present the essence of what is known, as well as its likely applications, and identify the knowledge gaps that need to be filled for the successful formulation and implementation of urban and regional policy.
Download or read book Revenue Ridership and Social Responsibility written by Timothy Welch McCarthy and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joint development is a form of value capture by which the public agencies partner with private developers to build Transit-Oriented Developments (TODs) on agency-owned land. When partnering with developers, transit agencies balance various priorities, including boosting ridership, maximizing revenue, stimulating local and regional economic development, and promoting social goals including the provision of affordable housing and community amenities. This report aims to help the Austin area’s transit agency, Capital Metro, formulate the best joint development policy by researching how transit agencies nationwide have balanced their policies between competing goals, including case studies of similar agencies. Based on peer agency practices, the report makes recommendations for how Austin’s Capital Metro can best pursue its stated policy goals for its joint development program
