Redlands Municipal Airports: Case Study

The land that was chosen for the Airport site was in Adams County but it lacked infrastructure development. This means DIA will need to create that infrastructure like water, power, and sewage disposal. In turn, this will increase DIA project costs. In the case study from Project management: a systems approach to planning, scheduling and controlling, Adams County also negotiated an agreement with DIA but it limited DIA “to such businesses as airline maintenance, cargo, small package delivery, and other such airport-related activities” (Kerzner, 2001, p. 643). In both the examples, we see that negative stakeholder involvement was detrimental to

The Iowa City Zoning Code was designed to be developed together with the Iowa City Comprehensive Plan; the goal is to stimulate the progress of a better quality of life for the population. Moreover, the regulations cover the provisions of the law for land use control in Iowa City. The document regulates the land use authorization for each of the zones and details the specific areas outlined in Iowa City. There are many land use area in the Iowa City Zoning Ordinance, as shown in Map 1 (Appendix C). However, this document will cover the use of residential land and will explain three of them: the Low-Density Single-Family Residential Zone (RS-5), Medium Density Multi-Family Residential Zone (RM-20), and Neighborhood Stabilization Residential

First, rezoning action is quasi-judicial in nature, subject to strict scrutiny on certiorari review. Second, a landowner who demonstrates that proposed use of the property is consistent with comprehensive plan is not presumptively entitled to such use. Third, a landowner seeking to rezone a property has burden of proving that proposal is consistent with the comprehensive plan, and consequently burden shifts to the zoning board to demonstrate legitimate public purpose of maintaining existing zoning classification. Finally, the board is not

Over a period of two years the developer was able to acquire sufficient real state to cross the threshold needed to qualify for SAP- Special Area Planning Zoning. It allowed them more flexibility on the open space requirements and density limits. Also, the special zoning allowed an arrangement with the local government to integrate the Eighth Street Metromover Station into the complex.

With a growing real estate market, investors can expect a good return on their investment. In addition, the industries within the town bring in new residents and potential business income.

There is emphasis on the responsibility that planners must serve the interest of the public through techniques that inform and structure debates and foster understanding (OPPI, n.d.). Members should respect the diversity of needs and values of the public while providing clear and accurate information on planning matters. These sections also cover the consequences on the natural and built environment. Through the planner’s action it is evident that he has neglected the interest of the public and has put the values of the developer first by presenting limited information. The planner did not foster understanding by providing clear and accurate information. Instead the information provided was vague and was not accurately represented since affects were not covered adequately in terms of the long-term consequences. Section 2.7 to 2.9 in the CIP addresses the fact that planners are responsible for disclosing full information when possible conflict of interest arise (OPPI, n.d.). In this case the developer and their proposed development and the public and the adjacent environmentally sensitive area created a conflict of interest. the conflict of interest was that the developer wanted to develop a community that aligns with their proposed plan whereas existing residents wanted to change the proposed plan to protect the forest. Since a conflict of interest arose the planner was responsible for

The proposed project will be located, “in the northwest portion of the City of San Marcos in North San Diego County. The site is situated to the west of the northern terminus of Las Posas Road, southwest of the San Marcos Highlands Specific Plan Area, northwest of the Santa Fe Hills residential community, and east of unincorporated lands within San Diego County”. The citation and all detail regarding the project come from the initial study, “CITY OF SAN MARCOS INITIAL STUDY
EIR 16-001
MURAI SPECIFIC PLAN”. The area is currently undeveloped, but lays adjacent to an already existing residential area. The project area will be accessed from the public Las Posas Road.

If the lot you want to build on is not properly zoned for your proposed development, you must obtain the proper zoning by filing an application for a zoning change. The process takes approximately 12 weeks and includes two public hearings. If you would like to file for a zoning change, it is recommended that you make an appointment with a planner before coming into the office. Call (214) 670-4209 to make an appointment or for more information regarding the rezoning process.

When looking into the history of the building and the surrounding buildings to find out the past they noticed that the property right next door had historical value. This meant it could not be broken down at any point in the future. The land already had specific zoning and ordinances that did not allow them to build the mixed use type of building that they wanted. They then looked to get the zoning changed from a C-2 zoning to a C-3 zoning, which would then allow them to be able to build what they were hoping to build. A C-2 zoning better known as a neighborhood business, permits the uses of C-1 zoning uses, rentals, outdoor advertising, and the building of different forms of shops. The major difference between these zonings is the maximum height limit allowed for the owners of the properties to build. With a C-2 zoning, the maximum height limit for the building is thirty-five feet, or as provided in community standards district. On the other hand, a C-3 zoning allows the height limit to be thirteen times the buildable area (except as otherwise provided in community standards). This distinction in zonings made it imperative for my family to be able to get their zoning change passed for their project. After speaking with the city about this and filing certain motions to change the zoning, the city requested the creation of residential space instead of

The first step towards the revival of the Bayview Yards is to remediate the soil and groundwater contamination which are the direct results of the municipal landfills, former rail yards, and current snow dump activities . After these environmental strains are lifted, the city will work to restore open spaces and green linkages between districts which will provide the foundation for the newly designated heritage building in the heart of Bayview Yards, the new Innovation Centre (7 Bayview Yards)

The fist economic concept presented in the article is cost-benefit analysis in regards to adding more density. The newly proposed land use element policy wants to address the demand for housing, employment, and lifestyle choices. They would like to encourage larger open space which could accommodate mixed -use development. This would help reduce the number of residents that commute out of Long Beach for work. The plan would also encourage more section 8 housing projects that can accommodate low income individuals. Majority of residents living in Long Beach believe that this proposal would incur a huge cost on the city. Long Beach is a parking impacted city with poor public transit system. Adding more density would not help the parking crisis that Long Beach faces; it can potentially make it worse. Residents also fear that adding more density in the city could lead to an increase in crime.

The opposition to the Sunset strip addition is significant in that it includes the West Hollywood community and LA City councilmembers. In an article by the Staff for WeHoville, “Last Minute Move to Curb 8150 Sunset Traffic on Havenhurst,” the community voices concern over the development’s placement on the northern border of West Hollywood which calls for their involvement in opposition work (the Staff).

Your Planning Commission (PC) publicly hears rezoning proposals, considering their long-term effects. Your property is surrounded by Agricultural Zones with Multiple Family Housing across the street. Rezoning to a General Business District would create an unconnected zone called a “spot zone.” This is the allowance of a more “intensive” use of land than your neighbors. While your karate studio may not be bothersome, a zoning change is permanent, meaning your site could become far more intensive in the future and may disrupt your neighbors. It is unlikely the township will favor this option. You could possibly sue. The courts utilize a comprehensive plan, which Lake Township lacks, to judge the legality of the “spot zone.” However, rezoning is still inadvisable since the new zone will compound problems by making your residence a “non-conforming” use. Your house would be “grandfathered in,” meaning you could continue using it, but a non-conforming use cannot expand, change, or significantly improve. . Perhaps the best argument is, a likelier and less intensive route

With the rapid growth of commercial air travel in the 1970s, the FAA recognized that the nation’s airports contributed significantly to the national economy and international commerce, as well as being a critical mode of transport for the public. Airports needed funding to improve safety and maintain airport infrastructure such as runways, taxiways, NAVAIDS, and land acquisition. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) formed the National Airport System Plan (NASP) to ensure these significant airports received Federal grants to make these improvements. The FAA revised the NASP with the Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982 and called the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) to reflect the further expansion.
