The Planners(Boey Kim Cheng)-Analysis

As part of our final report we are expected to select a planning issue within the City of Boston and undertake an analysis of the issue from a planning perspective. An issue that the City of Boston is dealing with that caught my attention was the lack of affordable housing available to its current and future residents. As cities start to evolve and attract large amounts of people, they also face some drawbacks that can affect where and how city residents can live. Our trip to Boston, Massachusetts opened my eyes to the city’s housing issue and its increasing housing and land values. An issue of this nature often causes residents to be pushed out of the city, into the suburbs or can cause homelessness. Low to moderate income families and youth across the City of Boston are struggling to pay rent and make ends meet. After our meeting with the Boston Housing Authority, I wanted to further explore the issue of housing affordability so I reached out to the City’s Department of Neighborhood Development for more information This paper will look into some topics such as when housing became an issue in the city, if Boston’s student population plays a role, if there any shortcomings in terms of how the city plans for affordable housing, if there are any specific programs in place that deal with affordable housing and if Boston is looking into what other cities may be doing.

When planning assessment you need to gauge a clear idea of what level the candidate is at to see if they are ready to complete your planned assessment. There are many ways of achieving this knowledge. One method is observation in performance or another by taking an initial assessment test which have seven levels with the basic entry level 1 being the first.

thoughtful planners like their 'organized ' counterparts… Moreover, visionary killers are said to be 'act focused ' because the act of killing itself is their immediate goal. Some visionary killers come to believe that they are someone else while others feel compelled to murder at the behest of entities such as the Devil or God. Both 'God mandated ' and 'demon mandated ' serial killers are fairly common and well documented (Bonn, para. 3-4).

Given the complexity of towns and cities, it is interesting to compare NSW legislation and planning instruments to other states within Australia, to discover ways to perhaps further improve the SILEP in NSW. This report will aim to help evaluate the implementation of the LEP Standard Instrument in comparison to other approaches to local plan making in Australia. The first section will look at the NSW local planning scheme for Leichhardt LGA. The second section the Victorian local planning scheme for Melbourne LGA as a comparison.

All health and social care sectors have to follow principles and values, principles explain to people what the right way to behave is, whereas values are based on what beliefs are important to the person and what they believe to be right and wrong for themselves as an individual. There are many principles and values such as empowerment, choice, rights, respect and confidentiality.

For this essay i have been asked to discuss a contemporary image from the last 30 years from fine art,design media or the everyday. I have decided to choose the Painting titled Plan (1993) by Jenny Saville, a contemporary British painter associated with the Young British Artists, known for her large-scale painted depictions of nude women.

General Franks and joint planners identified various strengths in the Iraq pre-invasion planning efforts of the Joint Staff. For instance, throughout development of the Iraqi operational approach, planners recognized Saddam Hussain and the City of Bagdad as strategic Centers of Gravity (COG) as a major sources of Iraqi power and strength to the Hussain regime.5 (JP5-0, p. III-22) By comparison, Karl Von Clausewitz referred to the COG as the “the hub of all power and movement, which everything depends or the point at which all our energies should be directed.”6 (JP5-0, p. III-22) In addition, General Frank’s and planners’ operational approach acknowledged the Iraqi Army and the Republican Guard as key operational COGs targeted in pre-invasion

Rowe in Collage City wrote a very condensed summary of the ideas developed within the Urban Design studio he taught at Cornell. He wrote about an autonomous apparatus containing formal strategies of typology,

This quote shows how much progress has really been made in such a short amount of time and the accomplishments of the architects/builders are much showcased through this

In all, the elements that primarily distinguished architects from builders are mainly economic standing and rhetoric of taste and invention, and education. Due to this, Upton believed master builders were prosperous and were typically motivated by “social distinction as a component of their professional success. In like manner, rhetoric of taste and invention differentiated architects from builders in that “taste might be acquired through ‘toil and study’..., but not in drawing school” (Upton, 61). Moreover, the key factors that contributed to the increasing professionalization of architects in eighteenth-century America are. Education, coherence in work, and the ability to communicate. With education, many were introduced to a “liberal-arts education, and eventually by moving professional education to the university, architects hoped to shake off their pesky rivals”(Upton, 63 ). For the socialization aspect of increasing professionalization of architects in eighteenth-century America, the

The Far West Elementary School serves primarily immigrant children, coming from foreign families and seeking a better life in the United States, while taking advantage of the lower price of real estate in the neighborhood. The educational facility aims to create an environment where the children would thrive in an academic manner, where they would gain more self esteem and responsibility and where the life long goals are valued and emphasized upon.

Most of Old English poetry is all in one book. This book is called the Exeter Book. This book includes diverse, short, religious poems, which each have their own unique style. Also, they contain a similar sad or mournful tone, which are considered to be elegies. Most of the poems are about one anonymous character who is enduring some type of hardship.

Imagine a city where no green space can be found. Where concrete and steel buildings rise up and block the sun. Where streets are chaotic and gridlocked and citizens are stuffed in cramped, dirty and unsanitary apartments. This was the world of 19th-century cities where human health and happiness were disregarded for economic gain. These horrid conditions shaped the lives and ideas of three very influential men: Ebenezer Howard, Le Corbusier, and Frank Lloyd Wright. They took their own experiences and redesigned the sprawling metropolis to improve the lives of the residents. Each man created urban utopias that included green spaces, farms, and parks to improve air quality and the livelihoods of the people. Despite theses similar views, each design differed from the others. Howard, Le Corbusier, and Wright all completely reimagined the urban city in differing ways based on scale, distribution of land and technology. Their design concepts have been adapted across the globe and implemented into modern urban planning everywhere.

The poem "Design" explores whether the events in nature are simply random occurrences or part of a larger plan by God, and if there's a force that dominates and controls our very existence. On that point both Jere K Huzzard and Everett Carter aggress on. They differ in their interpretations of the poem's ending and what they think Frost wanted to convey with his vague ending. Both agree that the last line of the poem was written in an undefined way with purpose on Frost's side. But each critic poses his own ideas regarding what is the meaning of that line. While Carter examines the whole poem in order to answer this question, Huzzard chose to focus only on the last two lines.

Chapter 4: How do you think planning in today’s organizations compares to planning in an organization 25 years ago? Do you think planning becomes more important or less important in a world where everything quickly changes and crises are a regular part of organizational life? Why?
