Growth Phasing and Resistance to Infill Development in Sacramento County
Comprehensive plans in the United States often have not had much effect on subsequent land use decisions. Sacramento County, California, adopted a strict growth phasing plan in 1973. The plan was implemented successfully through 1981, but resistance to infill development is beginning to reduce its effectiveness. We analyze and interpret the factors that led to successful implementation in the past and identify causes of the current problems; the study indicates that growth phasing is easier to accomplish than infill development. We then suggest improvements in state and local legislation.
