Recent research examines the opportunities presented by policy instrument mixes as tools for public managers to address complex environmental problems by involving public, private, and civil society actors. However, gaps exist in this literature as to how these instruments become applied over a project’s lifetime and whether these applications lead to the desired results. This comparative case study examines the selection and application of policy instruments during four brownfield clean-up and redevelopment projects, selected for their similar economic contexts but varying degrees of project success, in order to consider how policy instrument use over the course of a brownfield project’s lifespan relates to its outputs. Findings suggest that local governments increase the use of policy instruments to retain partner involvement as project uncertainties increase but that the success of this strategy relies upon governance strategies that reflect environmental and political contexts
