"Policy Focus Report/ Code PF037."
This policy focus report, produced in conjunction with the Sonoran Institute, provides information and tools to help cities and counties struggling with problems that stem from arrested developments in their communities, from health and safety hazards to blight, impacts on existing lot owners, fiscal threats, fragmented development patterns, overcommitted natural resources and market flooding and distortions. The authors suggest that local governments should build a solid foundation of policies, laws and programs, in order to facilitate recovery, create more sustainable growth scenarios, improve property values and pursue land and habitat conservation where those land uses are more appropriate.
