Meeting The Challenge Of Urban Revitalization, Henry G. Cisneros
Meeting The Challenge Of Urban Revitalization, Henry G. Cisneros
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Intensified spatial, racial, and social isolation of the inner-city poor is the single most significant aspect of American urban decline in the latter half of the twentieth century. Successful urban revitalization depends on our willingness to confront it. Failure to deal with it will leave a critical mass of human misery at the cores of our cities, and a self-sustaining chain reaction of poverty that no amount of tax credits, tax incentives, or business investment can ever overcome.
The Clinton administration's urban strategy is founded on an understanding of this reality. Our approach to urban revitalization is, accordingly, twofold: on …
United States Urban Policy: What Is Left? What Is Right?, Jack Sommer
United States Urban Policy: What Is Left? What Is Right?, Jack Sommer
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Article has three Parts: Part I provides a perspective on what remains of United States urban policy after the Reagan and Bush years. Part II sets forth a critique of the current institutional framework for the construction of national urban policy. Finally, Part III addresses current challenges for American metropolitan areas. In the spirit of Tocqueville, but with two caveats, I urge that greater reliance be placed on actions of private firms and voluntary associations than on federal programs to restore the central cities of many of the nation's metropolitan areas. Government action to protect citizens and to remove …
Revitalizing Our Cities Or Restoring Ties To Them? Redirecting The Debate, Donald A. Hicks
Revitalizing Our Cities Or Restoring Ties To Them? Redirecting The Debate, Donald A. Hicks
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
In this Article, I generally concur that certain legal reforms do hold considerable potential for ameliorating some of the desperate circumstances we find in our cities today. My view is rooted in the recognition that past reforms which dismantled legal barriers to equal opportunity were of monumental significance in broadening social and economic access to our urban arrangements. But it also is rooted in the conviction that a new wave of legal reform might well be required in order to reconsider other past reforms that, however unintentionally, have made many matters worse. Above all, any proposed legal reform should be …
Community Development Banking Strategy For Revitalizing Our Communities, Rochelle E. Lento
Community Development Banking Strategy For Revitalizing Our Communities, Rochelle E. Lento
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
CDCUs and CDLFs may outnumber CDBs, but their scope of lending activity pales in comparison. Despite CDBs' relatively small number, their impact on their respective communities warrants an in-depth discussion of their structures and formulas for success. This Article will provide an overview of the CDBs in the United States. Part I first sets forth the legal structure and purpose of CDBs, and then reviews the history and current status of mature CDBs and emerging CDBs. Part II considers community development credit unions, after which Part III gives community development loan funds similar treatment. Finally, Part IV analyzes the potential …
Redevelopment Redefined: Revitalizing The Central City With Resident Control, Benjamin B. Quinones
Redevelopment Redefined: Revitalizing The Central City With Resident Control, Benjamin B. Quinones
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Misguided redevelopment has been both a symptom of, and a means for achieving, inappropriate urban development goals. Requiring resident control will improve the redevelopment process itself, and simultaneously redirect the development goals towards which it channels its energy. One hopes that by shifting control of the redevelopment process, we also would shift the goals that redevelopment would pursue and the development forms it would take. Presumably, this would result in urban development designed to benefit residents of the urban core.

The Curriculum For The Lab Portion Of A Training For Day Care Providers In Developmentally Appropriate Practices, Celeste Anderson
All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023
Along with many areas in the United States of America, Carbon County, Utah is considered economically depressed. With the unemployment rate at nearly 14%, spouses have entered the work force. In addition there are many single parents.This has left a high rate of children at risk and increased the demand for home day care providers, Although twelve hours of training per year are mandated by state law, very few providers have had any formal or professional training beyond an occasional evening workshop . What training has been offered has generally been along the lines of managerial, business and physical environment …
Competence And Acceptance Of Children With Developmental Disabilities: An Examination Of Self-Concept, Cindy S. Smith
Competence And Acceptance Of Children With Developmental Disabilities: An Examination Of Self-Concept, Cindy S. Smith
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The purpose of this research was to examine the relationship of the self-concepts of a sample of 248 children with developmental disabilities with demographic variables and measures of child functioning and family situational variables. In addition, responses on a measure of self-concept were compared with those of a normative sample provided by Harter. Results indicated that, using this measure and these populations, there were no differences in the self-concept of children with disabilities and those without disabilities. Canonical correlation analysis indicated that children's cognitive achievement and independent functioning skills were moderately related to their self-concepts, but demographic variables and family …

Development Concept Plan, Zions Canyon Headquarters, Zion National Park, Utah, United States Department Of The Interior, National Park Service
Parks and Reserves
The plan will implement a mandatory shuttle bus system in Zion Canyon during the peak visitor use season. A transit/information center, located in a portion of the Watchman Campground, will function as the shuttle bus staging area. It will include a 575 vehicle parking and bus loading area, information center, visitor comfort facilities, amphitheater, and a picnic area. The Watchman Campground (partially displaced by the shuttle facilities) and South Campground will be rehabilitated to improve circulation and the quality of the campsites. The existing visitor center would be converted to an education center.

Bounded Population Forecasts Of Nye County Communities Generated By The Cohort-Component Method: A Mushrooming Development, Douglas George Arnold
Bounded Population Forecasts Of Nye County Communities Generated By The Cohort-Component Method: A Mushrooming Development, Douglas George Arnold
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
This study will forecast the subcounty population of Nye County, Nevada in convenient and useful boroughs for the purpose of assisting local planners in allocating essential services. We shall explore and revise a new technique by providing a means of quantifying the accuracy of population projections using the cohort-component method. This technique will place a formal measure of uncertainty around the projections by analyzing bias and random errors; a Mean Square Error (Master of Engineering (ME)) Confidence Interval (CI). The two sources of error will be extended to cover errors in cohort-component projections resulting from net migration, mortality, and fertility. …

An Economic Valuation Of The Jandakot Wetlands, Paul Gerrans
An Economic Valuation Of The Jandakot Wetlands, Paul Gerrans
Research outputs pre 2011
Economists implore the efficient allocation of resources. Paradoxically, where the issue of efficiency has become critically important in recent times, namely the allocation of the environment and its resources and amenity, the techniques of economists have been found wanting and less than fully developed. This paper seeks to address this apparent paradox and deficiency.
This paper provides an economic valuation of the Jandakot wetlands, located to the south of Perth. A referendum style contingent valuation method survey is used to estimate economic value attributable to the preservation of wetlands dependant on the groundwater resource. Event history analysis is explored and …

That of the Southeast Asian group, with the exception of the Philippines, and that of China is also impressive. The South Asian countries have done much less well, with countries in sub-Saharan Africa, the Caribbean, and Latin America even further behind...
