Form Based Codes And Economic Impacts: A Multivariate Regression Analysis And Case Study, Jacob M. Howard
Form Based Codes And Economic Impacts: A Multivariate Regression Analysis And Case Study, Jacob M. Howard
Master's Theses
After a 100-year history, traditional zoning practices are being challenged as a contributing factor in a number of social, heath and economic problems facing cities in the United States. In this context, form based codes have emerged as a possible alternative way for cities to guide development. Growing out of the New Urbanist movement, form based codes frequently mix uses, allow for a greater variety of housing types and encourage development that is both denser and more compact. Despite an established literature which links land-use regulations, and zoning in particular, to fiscal outcomes, the impacts that form based codes have …

Cooperative Construction in Schools in California
John M. Donley
The construction industry has lost efficiency since 1964, while becoming increasingly more litigious. Schools in California can ill afford the time to allow the construction industry time to fully evolve. It may take years or decades to fully improve the efficiency of, and reduce the conflict within the construction industry.
At the same time, the construction industry has developed new processes to improve efficiency and reduce conflict. These processes are beginning to be broadly embraced by the industry. They all contain cooperative elements. Taken together they represent a new organizing principle …
Addressing The Administration Of Planned Developments: The Case Of Arroyo Grande, California, Matthew J. Downing
Addressing The Administration Of Planned Developments: The Case Of Arroyo Grande, California, Matthew J. Downing
Master's Theses
The City of Arroyo Grande, California has a problem administering the
regulations of five Planned Developments in the City. This problem arises
from these regulations being included in a 167-page appendix at the back of
the City’s Development Code. This appendix includes the original approvals
for the Developments. It also includes amendments to those approvals.
These amendments are only added to the appendix. Therefore, changes to
the regulations governing the Planned Developments are not tracked. It
takes City staff considerable amounts of time to research answers when
members of the public have questions regarding development in one of these
Developments. …
Go Farm, Goleta: Urban Agriculture Protection For Eastern Goleta Valley, Eli M. Krispi
Go Farm, Goleta: Urban Agriculture Protection For Eastern Goleta Valley, Eli M. Krispi
Master's Theses
This paper explores two potential land use planning strategies that can be used to preserve and enhance the economic viability of agricultural operations surrounded by suburban development in Santa Barbara County’s Eastern Goleta Valley: buffers between agriculture and other land uses, and agritourism. In the case of buffers, academic literature is examined to determine how effective buffers are at various tasks (filtering runoff, mitigating dust and wind, providing habitat, etc.) and how to construct buffers to maximize their effectiveness. Land use plans and codes from several California jurisdictions are studied to see how buffers are put to use. Academic literature …
