Infill and Redevelopment Tools Use Planning and Development Tools Infill and Redevelopment Tools ⇒ Community Redevelopment Agency ⇒ Development without Displacement ⇒ Greyfield Development ⇒ Incentives for Infill and Redevelopment ⇒ Neighborhood Conservation District ⇒ Vacant Property Program Infill and redevelopment planning tools enable communities to direct more of new development, and the accompanying investments into existing urban and suburban areas that already have services. They do that by developing, redeveloping, and re-using existing sites and buildings in neighborhoods, and commercial corridors and centers. Communities use infill (which applies to filling in vacant parcels) and redevelopment (which applies to constructing new development on previously developed land) to make more efficient use of existing infrastructure, such as streets, water, and sewer lines, and to lower the cost of public services, such as fire, police, and emergency service providers. Infill and redevelopment are also used to provide affordable housing, to reduce pressures to expand urban and suburban areas further into the countryside or nearer to environmentally sensitive lands, and to reduce traffic congestion by shortening commuting distances or eliminating the need to commute by providing houses closer to jobs. Infill and redevelopment programs also help to revitalize downtowns.

(www.floridaplanning.org), the Florida Planning and Zoning Association Transportation Planning Tools √ Context Sensitive Solutions √ Complete (Walkable) Streets √ Corridor Plans √ Interconnected Street Network √ Road Diets √ Traffic Calming √ Transit-Oriented Development Transportation planning issues are a top of the mind concern for many Florida residents and businesses, as well as those in the Emerald Coast. Because of growing traffic congestion within and between communities, Floridians are spending more and more time in traffic and driving greater distances for jobs, housing, and basic services. Adding to the concern is the recognition that transportation investments play a powerful role in shaping the location and character of development in a community and in determining a community’s livability and economic vitality. The way communities plan for development (what land uses go where and how they connect) has a powerful influence on transportation and travel mode choices and on equitable access to jobs, housing, and services. As a result, transportation and land use planners are increasingly coming together to incorporate land use and accessibility consideration when planning transportation investments and to create new planning tools that broaden the range of transportation choices, create roads that enhance the surrounding community, and make roads more desirable for cars and bikes. Military Growth Community Planning Tools √ Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (GMP) √ Conservation Partnering Authority √ Economic Diversification Plan √ Joint Land Use Study Program (JLUS) Florida’s Emerald Coast is home to eight (8) military installations that are a major contributor to the regional economy and quality of life. The bases include the largest air force base in the world, Eglin Air Force Base EAB), which covers 724 square miles within the reservation. In the next four years (by 2009), Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) training, as well as the Army’s 7th Special Forces Group, will be realigned to Eglin AFB, and that will significantly increase the number of military and civilian personnel and their families to Okaloosa, Walton, and Santa Rosa counties. The Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA) is the U.S. Department of Defense's primary source for assisting communities that are impacted by such Defense program changes. The OEA has experienced staff to help communities put together an adjustment program that can be used to plan for the growth from the expansion of a military base installation. The OEA also offers a number of planning tools and related grants. Those tools and grants provide a way for a local government to work in partnership with a local military base installation to assess the potential impacts of growth on the community (for example, off-base community services and facilities and off-base housing); develop an adjustment strategy and plan; and implement the plan using local, state and Federal resources. (Information about Office of Economic Adjustment Planning Tools is available at www.oea.gov/oeaweb.nsf) Housing Tools √ Community Land Trusts √ Employer Assisted Housing √ Housing Linkage Program √ Incentives for Affordable Housing √ Inclusionary Zoning A daily scan of headlines across Florida highlights what is increasingly a common occurrence: the price of a house has far outpaced incomes and the gap between incomes and housing costs grows larger each year. In many communities, the cost of housing has become a principal issue for employers who are finding it more and more difficult to hire and keep workers because they cannot afford a home near where they work and cannot afford longer and more costly commutes to distant locations that offer more affordable homes. The problem applies to most professions needed to keep a community going, such as firefighters, law enforcement personnel, teachers, health care and emergency care workers, and government employees. The magnitude of Florida’s housing problem was documented in a recent report by the Florida Housing Coalition, Florida Priced Out Report: 2005 Findings: since 2003, median home prices in Florida have increased by 77 percent, while incomes grew by 1.4 percent. (Information on the report is available from the Florida Housing Coalition, www.flhousing.org.) In 2006, the Florida legislature responded to the housing affordability crisis by passing several programs (discussed below under Incentives for Affordable Housing) that create incentives for producing affordable housing. Those incentives build on existing state Growth Management and Land Development Regulations that require communities to include a Housing Element in their comprehensive plans. The Housing Element must show how a community will meet the housing needs of its existing and projected population, including those with special needs and low incomes. In addition, a community’s future land use map must show sites for affordable housing, and, through the Development of Regional Impact process, large commercial developments are required to provide affordable housing for the employees they generate.

In the United States in particular, fixed-guideway transit’s land use-shaping capability has been an important justification and goal for transit investment. In fact, today’s U.S. federal funding policies increasingly focus on achieving transit-oriented real estate development near new transit infrastructure. However, the widespread implementation of transit and land use coordination practices has been considered an uphill battle. The academic literature suggests the most effective practice may be for U.S. transit planners to locate transit stations where pre-existing conditions are advantageous for real estate development or transit investments can generate the political will to dramatically alter local conditions to make them amenable to real estate development. However, prior to this study, no research had investigated the influence of real estate development considerations on U.S.

  • The Role of Transportation Planning and Policy in Shaping Communities by Naomi Cytron
    The Role of Transportation Planning and Policy in Shaping Communities By Naomi Cytron 2 Community Investments, Summer 20102010/Volume/Volume 22, Issue 2 Special Focus: Transit-Oriented Development Transit-Oriented Special Focus: The Role of Transportation Planning and Policy Introduction ar more than just laying pathways to get from one place to in Shaping Communities another, transportation infrastructure has played a fundamental By Naomi Cytron role in shaping the physical, social, and economic landscape in cities and regions all around the nation. The convergence of Frail lines in Chicago, for instance, primed the city to become a hub of trade and commerce, and established a framework for the geographic arrangement of industrial and residential development. The tangle of freeways in Los Angeles and the mass transit network in New York simi- larly influence the form and character of neighborhoods in those cities. By impacting development patterns and the cost and convenience of travel between locations, roads and transit services not only prescribe many of the options about where people live and work, but also deter- mine access to opportunity. The Far-Reaching Impacts of Transportation Policy For low- and moderate-income (LMI) and minority communities, though, the outcomes of transportation policy and planning over much of the past 50 years have been largely about isolation rather than access. Arguably, in many places transportation policy and planning have served to exacerbate the challenges that the community develop- ment field seeks to confront, such as socioeconomic segregation and limited economic development opportunities. Consider the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, which authorized the interstate highway system and sparked the large-scale construction of roadways.

  • Success and Failures in Urban Transport Planning in Europe—Understanding the Transport System
    Sadhan¯ a¯ Vol. 32, Part 4, August 2007, pp. 293–307. © Printed in India Success and failures in urban transport planning in Europe—understanding the transport system HERMANN KNOFLACHER Institute for Transport Planning and Traffic Engineering, University of Technology, Vienna A-1040 e-mail: hermann.knofl[email protected] Abstract. Technological determinism has become a kind of religion for many people since it appears to offer solutions for societal problems as never before in history. Transport is one of the fascinating technology branches developed during the last 200 years. Effortless movement over long distances has become possible for car users as long as cheap fossil energy is available. However, the effect of fast transport on urban structures and society was not taken into account when develop- ing these technical means. Technologists and economists have used indicators for expected benefits of these fast transport modes without taking into account the real system effects on society and urban structures. Plausible assumptions and hopes instead of scientific understanding of the complex system are used in practice. In contradiction to widely held beliefs of transportation planners, there is actually no growth of mobility if counted in number of trips per person per day, no time saving by increasing speed in the system, and no real freedom of modal choice. Modal choice is dependent on physical and other structures, the artificial environment built by urban planners, transport experts and political decisions. The core hypothesis of traditional urban and transport planning ‘growth of mobility’, ‘travel time sav- ing by increasing speed’ and ‘freedom of modal choice’ are myths and do not exist in the real urban and transport system.
