The Politics of Design and Development in the Postmodern Downtown
As cities cope with new economic realities their downtown spaces are changing. Downtowns have become consumption–based places that are designed more like amusement parks for tourists than as urban places for residents. The increasing privatization of design and oversight of downtown spaces raises questions about democratic access and in whose interests public development policy is made. The case cities examined here suggest that cities are strugg…

Managing Growth in a Climate of Urban Diversity
Development pressures have forced many of South Florida’s poorest new residents, many of them immigrants, to locate in a narrow, inner-city core area along the east coast. Now, with South Florida literally running out of land, political forces are encouraging redevelopment in this urban core area. Politicians and developers have sought to redirect growth to save the Everglades environment, resulting in new policy recommendations that neglect the …
Is Urban Sprawl Back on the Political Agenda
The author argues that the apparent ineffectuality of efforts to control urban sprawl is in some part a result of a failure to distinguish between growth controls, which have a well-earned reputation as a thinly veiled form of NIMBYism and regional growth management (RGM), which involves the attempt to set out rules for development that are designed to preserve the livability, viability, and attractiveness of an urban area as a whole. This study …

Growth Politics and Downtown Development
Urban areas dominated by growth do not follow the same progrowth strategies for development. Some cities have adopted development policies that seek to redistribute the costs and benefits of downtown economic development. This is not necessarily, however, an antigrowth strategy but is, rather, a progressive growth agenda. In this comparative study, the characteristics of growth politics are examined through downtown development strategies that af…
New Rules for the Growth Game
Cities and states are searching for responses to the demands of urban growth which will allow growth to continue while diminishing the associated problems. The broad policy choices center on the need to continue private development efficiency through the free market and the need to protect the public interest equity through public regulatory protection. Growth politics is a politicized arena, reflecting the biases exhibited within local governmen…
Intergovernmental Growth Management
Growth management receives strong support as a policy concept. However, there are serious political reservations concerning its implementation. The Florida Growth Management Act is an example of a well constructed policy that relies on a partnership approach to state-local relations. Its implementation during 1989 has brought to light the difficulties in maintaining that partnership, mainly due to disagreements over responsibility for funding the…
