    Annika Fritz, Trincity Millennium Vision, 44 th ISOCARP Congress 2008 TRINCITY MILLENNIUM VISION TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO 1 Annika Fritz, Trincity Millennium Vision, 44 th ISOCARP Congress 2008 INTRODUCTION Trinidad and Tobago, a twin island Republic are the two most southerly islands in the Caribbean; located between 10°3′N, 60°55′W and 10°50′N, 61°55′W as seen in Figure 1 below. Trinidad is located eleven (11) kilometers off the northeastern coast of Venezuela and its total land area is 5,128 km2 or 1,980 sq. miles. Tobago’s total land area on the other hand is estimated at 300 km2. The population of Trinidad and Tobago is approximately, one million two hundred and sixty-two thousand three hundred and sixty-six persons. (1 262 366) (http://www.cso.gov.tt/statistics/cssp/census2000/default.asp ). Its economy is very reliant on petrochemicals but is described as being diversified. Private individuals own 47% of the land while the State owns the remaining 53%, much of which is forest reserves (Smart 1988; Stanfield and Singer, 1993). The average population growth rate for the period 2000-2005 was 0.3%; the unemployment rate measured at the fourth quarter of 2006 was 5.0% (http://www.cso.gov.tt ). Source: www.ajmtours.com/maps.html Figure 1: Trinidad and Tobago within the larger Caribbean Context The islands of Trinidad and Tobago were both former British colonies. As a consequence, their political system, institutional and administrative structures reflect a British tradition. The construct of its land use planning system, is quite archaic as it is based on the 1947 Town and Country Planning Act of England and Wales .
