The current focus on research and innovation for smart specialisation strategies is the latest manifestation of this trend. By putting PPI processes at the core of regional and local development initiatives to support innovation, governments can go beyond priority setting to become active stakeholders engaged in entrepreneurial discovery processes. In this paper we offer a new conceptualization of how such smart specialisation strategies, as an example of a sub- national innovation policy, can help articulate demand for innovation. The paper presents an evolutionary framework that relates regional specialisation processes with the scale and scope of the demand associated to that specialisation. We identify four different roles for governments to be played, depending on the availability of local capabilities and the scale of the chosen priorities: government as a lead user, government as an innovation catalyst,

    Transit Planning Practice in the Age of Transit-Oriented Development By Ian Robinson Carlton A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City & Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Daniel Chatman, Chair Professor Robert Cervero Professor Dwight Jaffee Fall 2013 © Copyright by Ian Robinson Carlton 2013 All Rights Reserved Abstract Transit Planning Practice in the Age of Transit-Oriented Development by Ian Robinson Carlton Doctor of Philosophy in City & Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Daniel Chatman, Chair Globally, urban development near transit stations has long been understood to be critical to transit’s success primarily because it can contribute to ridership and improve the efficiency of transit investments. 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.

    LOCAL GOVERNMENT CLIMATE AND ENERGY STRATEGY SERIES Smart Growth A Guide to Developing and Implementing Greenhouse Gas Reductions Programs Community Planning and Design U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 2011 EPA’s Local Government Climate and Energy Strategy Series The Local Government Climate and Energy Strategy Series provides a comprehensive, straightforward overview of green- house gas (GHG) emissions reduction strategies for local governments. Topics include energy efficiency, transportation, community planning and design, solid waste and materials management, and renewable energy. City, county, territorial, tribal, and regional government staff, and elected officials can use these guides to plan, implement, and evaluate their climate change mitigation and energy projects. Each guide provides an overview of project benefits, policy mechanisms, investments, key stakeholders, and other imple- mentation considerations. Examples and case studies highlighting achievable results from programs implemented in communities across the United States are incorporated throughout the guides. While each guide stands on its own, the entire series contains many interrelated strategies that can be combined to create comprehensive, cost-effective programs that generate multiple benefits. For example, efforts to improve energy efficiency can be combined with transportation and community planning programs to reduce GHG emissions, decrease energy and transportation costs, improve air quality and public health, and enhance quality of life.

  • SMART GROWTH Fernando Costa, David Crossley, Mike Brennan, and Greg Baker
    SMART GROWTH Fernando Costa, David Crossley, Mike Brennan, and Greg Baker In recent years, the term "smart growth" has become increasingly popular as public officials around the country have sought long-term, sustainable solutions to the urgent social, economic, and environmental issues that face our cities and metropolitan areas. A wide variety of national organizations, ranging from the Sierra Club to the National Association of Home Builders, have adopted policy statements that explicitly favor some form of smart growth. From coast to coast, many states have provided leadership on growth management issues, even as they have reaffirmed that the responsibility for resolving those issues lies mainly at the local level. The American Planning Association will consider, at its Chicago Conference in April 2002, the following definition: Smart Growth is the planning, design and development and revitalization of our communities to promote community and equity, to create a sense of place and to preserve our natural as well as cultural resources. Smart Growth enhances _ecological integrity over both the short and long term, and improves quality of life for all by expanding the range of transportation, employment and housing choices in the region in a fiscally responsible manner. Source: Draft 4, Policy Guide on Smart Growth, September 7, 2001. Available on the APA website, www.planning.org; or from the APA's offices in Washington, D.C. In Texas, some municipalities have adopted smart growth as the theme for their efforts to revitalize distressed neighborhoods and control suburban sprawl. For example, the City of Austin has attracted national attention with its innovative Smart Growth Initiative, even hosting the Urban Land Institute's 1998 conference on smart growth.

  • The Big Tent of Growth Management: Smart Growth As a Movement
    Policies for Managing Urban Growth and Landscape Change: A Key to Conservation in the 21st Century THE BIG TENT OF GROWTH MANAGEMENT: SMART GROWTH AS A MOVEMENT Edward G. Goetz1 ABSTRACT—Growth management policies in the U.S. have failed to gain significant political support in many regions, limiting efforts to manage development patterns and protect natural resources. The Smart Growth movement has brought new voices into the debate over growth management and has provided a “big tent” under which transportation groups, environmentalists, advocates for affordable housing, and neighborhood activists have combined efforts to affect land policy. Although this has broadened political support for growth management, the Smart Growth movement still faces impor- tant challenges in unifying and mobilizing its diverse constituency. Pinpointing the origins of the Smart Growth movement is dif- (NRDC) and the Surface Transportation Policy Project ficult. Some argue that Smart Growth stems from the entire (STPP) jointly developed what they called the Smart Growth history of growth management efforts, going back as far as the Toolkit to assist local and state governments in producing Supreme Court’s legitimization of zoning (Burchell et al. walkable and transit-accessible development. In 1996, the 2000). From this perspective, Smart Growth is merely a label U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) joined with for a repackaged assemblage of previous growth management nonprofit and government organizations to create the Smart techniques and is an evolutionary stage in the development of Growth Network (SGN). Members of the SGN include a growth management approaches. A competing perspective is range of interest groups concerned with issues that range that Smart Growth brings together existing strategies in a new from the environment and historic preservation to real estate way, under the banner of a different set of growth manage- development and transportation.
