A Review of “Urban Design and People”

Existing environmental impact statements have failed to consider many possible onshore impacts associated with offshore oil and gas recovery from the Baltimore Canyon. They have also ignored the cumulative effects of other coastal zone energy proposals.

By providing an overview of problems which have arisen elsewhere, the Scottish North Sea experience can supply valuable alternative inputs to the planning process in Middle Atlantic states. Since strategic planning goals may be superseded by the need to meet rapidly changing short-term demands, a comprehensive management program that includes facilities inventories, site acquisition, hazard guidelines, and identification of priority investment zones is necessary.

A Review of “The Urban Wisdom of Jane Jacobs”

A large proportion of the urban population in developing countries lives in informal settlements due largely to rapid population growth and widespread poverty. Traditional regulatory measures—price control, minimum physical standards, eradication of squatter settlements, and urban growth control have failed to improve the housing conditions among the poor. More recently, international donor agencies have encouraged new policies based on affordability for consumers, and many developing countries are shifting their priorities to upgrading existing informal settlements and to sites and services projects for low-income settlements. Both traditional and recent government policies are guided by three key norms—unique occupancy, minimum physical standards, and one-step regularization—which are not in line with the individuals' behavior in the housing market. Therefore, governments and donor agencies need to critically examine the impacts of these norms and to consider alternative strategies such as multiple occupancy, adaptable shared housing, and multistep housing development.
