Planning for Sustainable Communities

Rauscher, Raymond Charles / Momtaz, Salim

This chapter provides an in-depth examination of the emerging tools needed by communities and governments to engage in planning for sustainable communities. Reviewing the history of the terms ‘sustainability’ and ‘ecological sustainable development’ (ESD) leads to an analysis of the changing schools of urban planning. The position the City of New York meeting the challenges of the new school of sustainable urban planning (SUP) is commented upon. The framework of this planning approach is also summarized. This sets the parameters to examine the planning instruments available within the City of New York and the role of the community and businesses in planning (Chap. 4).
