  • Plpr Volos Private Residential
    PLPR VOLOS PRIVATE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES: A CROSS CULTURAL COMPARISON DWIGHT H. MERRIAM, FAICP ROBINSON & COLE LLP HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT USA In the last half-century throughout the world there has been a near geometric increase in the number of private residential communities, many of them gated and secured from their larger communities. England, New Zealand, France, Portugal, Spain, Mexico, China, South Africa, Russia, Argentina and numerous other Latin American countries, Lebanon, and the United States of America have all experienced this growth in varying ways and with some similar impacts and some different ones. This article reviews the experiences across several nations for a cross-cultural comparison to identify points of commonality and differences and how we might learn from each other in terms of managing private residential communities now and in the future. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA In 1964 there were fewer than 500 so-called “common interest developments.” The terminology here reaches a number of different types of development and organizational scenarios. Common interest developments include single-family residential developments where there are covenants and cross-easements and other legal restrictions imposed on individual property owners. The term might also include condominiums which are not so much a form of development as they are a form of ownership in which individual residential units are owned individually. In condominiums, in addition to the privately-owned units there are “limited common elements” which might include a porch or patio and a small backyard, and “common elements” shared equally and openly by all owners, including access drives, parking, parks, recreational amenities. We also have cooperative ownership arrangements under which an entire building or group of buildings is owned by a single corporation and individual tenants live under perpetual tenancy- in-common arrangements.

  • Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation Under the Link Policy: a Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China
    Article Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation under the Link Policy: A Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China Cunming Zou, Jianzhi Liu, Bencheng Liu, Xuhan Zheng and Yangang Fang * School of Geographical Sciences of Northeast Normal University, Changchun 130024, China; [email protected] (C.Z.); [email protected] (J.L.); [email protected] (B.L.); [email protected] (X.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-431-85099550 Received: 7 September 2019; Accepted: 10 September 2019; Published: 16 September 2019 Abstract: Land, nature, and the social environment in contiguous poor regions are harsh and difficult to change. The poor adaptive capacities of the socio-ecological systems of these regions are the main causes of deep, persistent poverty. In February 2016, the Chinese government issued a policy proposing to promote poverty alleviation by relocation (PAR) by means of the “Linking increases in urban construction land with decreases in rural construction land” policy (or simply, the “Link Policy” or LP), which intends to realize the sustainable social and economic development of local villages. Since then, many pilot projects have been carried out across the country based on local resources, environment, and economic development; however, few related studies on these cases have been conducted. After a review of poverty alleviation policies, this paper first introduces the unsustainable conditions of poor rural areas and the implications and advantages of PAR under the Link Policy; we then analyzed the complete PAR process, including formulation, implementation, and completion, by taking Tongyu County in Jilin Province as an example. The study found that the “whole village relocation” model practiced in Tongyu County was relatively successful in terms of improving the living environment, income, and public services of local villagers.

Served by the MARC commuter line train station and in the future by the Corridor Cities Transitway, Germantown will become a walkable, transit served community. The design guidelines focus on the design of the streets, open spaces and buildings to promote compact, sustainable, and transit accessible development. The proposed street grid will create blocks with housing and jobs within a short walking distance of transit. A variety of open spaces ranging from large stream valley urban parks to small urban spaces will serve the entire up-County and the smaller areas within neighborhoods. The buildings will shape a well knit urban fabric of streets and open spaces that create an enjoyable pedestrian environment. Context of Design Guidelines The design guidelines are one of three guiding documents. Germantown Sector Plan - Identifies the vision and describes the goals for the area. Design Guidelines - Provide a link between the master plan and the zoning, identifies the relationship between the public and private spaces, and communicates the required design features. Zoning Ordinance - Identifies the regulatory framework and the specific development standards that give form to the vision.

  • Residential Community Conduct Guidelines Fall 2019 - Spring 2020
    RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY CONDUCT GUIDELINES FALL 2019 - SPRING 2020 Community Accountability The Dean of the Student Experience is responsible for all residential community regulations and policies. These regulations and policies are part of the Housing License Agreement between the university and the resident also referred to as student. Each resident should be familiar with these and other regulations that may be published later. The purpose of the residential community of the George Washington University is to enhance the academic environment and provide residents with a well-maintained, safe, and positive living experience. Residents have the right to expect an environment that is conducive to study, sleep, and socialization. Residents are responsible for creating an environment that promotes the academic mission of the university and for developing and maintaining an atmosphere that promotes social awareness, social appreciation, and respect of those who may be different from themselves. Violation of regulations will result in administrative and/or disciplinary action by the university through the Office of the Dean of the Student Experience, or designee, to include but not limited to, the Office of Student Rights & Responsibilities and the Center for Student Engagement. These Residential Community Conduct Guidelines (RCCGs) shall apply to all residential facilities owned or rented by the university through GW Housing. It is expected that individuals living in housing not owned or leased by the university will comply with laws, rules, and regulations applicable to such housing. Failure to comply may, at the discretion of the university, result in disciplinary action. A resident who is accused of being an accessory to a violation is subject to the same charges as the perpetrator of the violation.
