- Summary:
- "Despite its historical significance and its state-mandated comprehensive planning approach, the Florida growth management experiment has received only piecemeal attention from researchers. Drawing together contributions from national experts on land use planning and growth management, this volume assesses the outcomes of Florida's approach for managing growth. As Florida,s approach is the most detailed system for managing growth in the United States, this book will be of great value to planners. The strengths and weaknesses of the state,s approach are identified, providing insights into how to manage land use change in a state continuously inundated by growth. In evaluating the successes and failures of the Florida approach, planners and policy makers will gain insights into how to successfully implement growth management policies at both the state and local level."--Provided by publisher.
