Accountability Conceptions And Federalism Tales: Disney's Wonderful World?, William W. Buzbee May 2002

Accountability Conceptions And Federalism Tales: Disney's Wonderful World?, William W. Buzbee

Michigan Law Review

Richard Foglesong's Married to the Mouse: Walt Disney World and Orlando, may not offer the thrills of an entertainment park, but it is an uncommonly good read. In a book focused on approximately four decades of Disney's interactions with Orlando and state officials, political scientist Foglesong tells the tale of how Walt Disney ended up locating his new East Coast entertainment park in Orlando, Florida and what happened in subsequent government-Disney company interactions. Using chapter headings based on stages in a personal relationship's progression ("Serendipity" to "Seduction" through "Marriage," and ultimately, after interim stages, "Therapy"), Foglesong shows that while the …

Does The Ghost Of Lochner Haunt Mission Springs? Ruminations On § 1983 Due Process Claims In Light Of Mission Springs, Inc. V. City Of Spokane, Mark K. Funke Jan 2002

Does The Ghost Of Lochner Haunt Mission Springs? Ruminations On § 1983 Due Process Claims In Light Of Mission Springs, Inc. V. City Of Spokane, Mark K. Funke

Washington Law Review

The last time the Washington Supreme Court applied substantive due process in a land use case was in Mission Springs, Inc. v. City of Spokane in 1998. Since then, the Washington Law Review has published four commentaries that address substantive due process in Washington land use, all of which characterize Washington's substantive due process law as producing undesirable results. However, none of the available commentary takes into consideration that there are two types of substantive due process cases in Washington land use. In one type, courts strike down local ordinances, while in the other they enforce the lawful application of …


Religious Land Use Jurisprudence: The Negative Ramifications For Religious Activities In Washington After Open Door Baptist Church V. Clark County, Beth Prieve Jan 2002

Religious Land Use Jurisprudence: The Negative Ramifications For Religious Activities In Washington After Open Door Baptist Church V. Clark County, Beth Prieve

Seattle University Law Review

Part II of this Note provides a history of religious land use jurisprudence in Washington. This part addresses growth management laws generally, and where these laws cross paths with constitutional guarantees of the free exercise of religion. Part III focuses on the Washington Supreme Court's Open Door decision, separately addressing both the majority opinion and the dissent. Part IV illustrates how the Washington Supreme Court misapplied Washington's religious freedom test in Open Door and significantly shifted religious land use jurisprudence. Part IV further discusses how this shift may include Washington's adoption of the lower federal standard and elaborates upon the …


The Census As A Call To Action, David J. Barron, Gerald E. Frug Jan 2002

The Census As A Call To Action, David J. Barron, Gerald E. Frug

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This article argues that we misinterpret the Census figures showing the continued growth of the suburbs and increase in populations of some cities and not others. While many, including a Harvard economist, contend that this is a purely a result of consumer preference, this article concludes that this pattern is more likely a result of legal rules promoting sprawl which have been unchanged for 50 years. The article states that this new census data should be a wake-up call for state law reform which will no longer constrain and define local government.


City Life And New Urbanism, Ray Gindroz Jan 2002

City Life And New Urbanism, Ray Gindroz

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This article discusses the importance and reintroduction of urban centers as areas of continuing development, information exchange and health in cities and suburbs. It first comments on the decay of urban centers as a result of the post-World War II push to build towns and cities which were more isolated, fragmented and anti-urban. New urbanism began in the 1970s and 80s to create neighborhoods and urban centers rather than scattered developments and has successfully continued to this day. This article identifies the design principles of these urbanists and how they are put into practice, including a case study of Park …


Eras, Daniel Solomon Jan 2002

Eras, Daniel Solomon

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This article discusses the different eras of development of the American town. The first era was a result of the agrarian grid. The second era started in 1938 when the Federal Housing Administration began working on a national code. The article identifies these sprawling second era towns as deficient. A third era is now underway and is heavily influenced by the first era towns.


Making The Good Easy: The Smart Code Alternative, Andres Duany, Emily Talen Jan 2002

Making The Good Easy: The Smart Code Alternative, Andres Duany, Emily Talen

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This article advocates for a new, fundamentally different plan for how cities should be coded, the Smart Code. It links urbanism and environmentalism and is strongly aligned with smart growth and sustainability. The Smart Code is offered as an alternative to the current anti-urban, conventional codes which are rigid and focus on single-use zones that separate human living space from the natural environment, as illustrated by the sprawl.


Maryland's Next Smart Growth Initiative: The Next Steps, Parris N. Glendening Jan 2002

Maryland's Next Smart Growth Initiative: The Next Steps, Parris N. Glendening

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This article discusses Maryland's Smart Growth and Neighborhood Conservation Initiative, the nation's first statewide, incentive-based program to reduce the impact of urban sprawl. It has been used as a model by other states and espouses the notions that no growth is bad and the economy and environment are intertwined. Maryland attempts to change the bottom line of development decisions by making it more attractive and less costly to build in designated growth areas. The article identifies the next steps in Maryland's Smart Growth initiative and concludes that Maryland and the United States must be successful in these and similar efforts …

Florida's Downtowns: The Key To Smart Growth, Urban Revitalization, And Green Space Preservation, John T. Marshall

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This article reviews Florida's growth management system, which has spurred suburban development, and its negative impact on Florida's cities. As Florida's governor and legislature have turned their focus to this issue, this article evaluates policy recommendations to limit Florida's suburban sprawl and invigorate its urban centers.
