Produktinformationen zu „Community Character (ePub)“
Community Character provides a design-oriented system for planning and zoning communities but accounts for how people who participate in a community live, work, and shop there. The relationships that Lane Kendig defines here reflect the complexity of the interaction of the built environmwith its social and economic uses, taking into account the diverse desires of municipalities and citizens. Among the many classifications for a community's "e;character"e; are its relationship to other communities, its size and the resulting social and economic characteristics.According to Kendig, mcomprehensive plans and zoning regulations are based entirely on density and land use, neither of which effectively or consistently measures character or quality of development. As Kendig shows, there is a wide range of measures that define character and these vary with the type of character a community desires to create. Taking a much more comprehensive view, this book offers "e;community character"e; as a real-world framework for planning for communities of all kinds and sizes.A companion book, A Practical Guide to Planning with Community Character, provides a detailed explanation of applying community character in a comprehensive plan, with chapters on designing urban, sub-urban, and rural character types, using character in comprehensive plans, and strategies for addressing characteristic challenges of planning and zoning in the 21st century.
