Contents:
Market failure and welfare economics : a justification for intervention -- Evaluation and planning -- Controlling the density of development -- Zoning and conservation -- Green belts, growth controls, and urban growth boundaries -- Planning and the land market -- The division of the spoils : profits, planning, gain, premium seeking and taxation -- Impact fees -- The economic consequences of higher land values -- The macroeconomic effects of planning constraints -- Methods of planning -- Politics, public choice, and political economy.
Review: "The book sets out the economic justification for land use planning as well as describing methods of assessing planning proposals and controls. It then presents a thorough analysis of the economic effects of the system and its 'political economy', looking at why planning takes the form it does." "Economics and Land Use Planning results from the 30 years of research, teaching and debate by the author. He writes in a crisp and clear style, simplifying the arguments without any loss of academic rigour. This analysis will be valuable to students and researchers in real estate, land management, planning and urban economics."--Jacket
