Recreational Master Plan For The City Of Radcliff, Kentucky, Joseph Smith
Recreational Master Plan For The City Of Radcliff, Kentucky, Joseph Smith
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
The City of Radcliff is presently without a Recreational Department and without local recreational planning. Therefore, it was desirable to establish a plan for the development of recreation in the city – a Recreational Master Plan. The master plan is divided into four areas: Organization and Administration of Recreation; Financing of Recreation; Facilities of Recreation; and Programming of Recreation. The standards set by the National Recreation and Park Association, NRPA, was the basis for evaluation of these areas.
It was found that Radcliff’s organizational chart needed to be reconstructed to include a recreation director, recreation department, and preferably an advisory …
Matrix Analysis And Social Planning, Roger A. Lohmann
Matrix Analysis And Social Planning, Roger A. Lohmann
Faculty & Staff Scholarship
This study is a follow-up to an earlier (1971) proposal for the application of Input-output analysis to social planning in human services (Repository item #753), and predates current models of human services as part of the nonprofit, or third sector. The manuscript details a study of financial inputs and service outputs in human services in the United Way system of Knoxville TN, noting a variety of quantitative ratios and measures of the human services delivery system, and assessing some of the strengths and weaknesses of the matrix approach.
Social Problems And Collaborative Planning: Toward A Theory And Model Of Social Planning, Marjorie M. Ille
Social Problems And Collaborative Planning: Toward A Theory And Model Of Social Planning, Marjorie M. Ille
Dissertations and Theses
The concern of this dissertation is planning theory and practice; its purpose is to make planning more responsive to the problems of the city. The premise that the study is built on is that social planning must be in harmony with the nature of its subject matter, and that social problems is its subject matter. The supposition is that if we grasp the nature of social problems and build planning theory and practice on these insights, planning efforts will be more relevant and more effective.
The approach is a theoretical one; social problems are the starting point. After urban problems--and …
Towards The Integration Of The Historical And Structural Theories Of Urban Form, David Tilford Martin
Towards The Integration Of The Historical And Structural Theories Of Urban Form, David Tilford Martin
Dissertations and Theses
In this thesis we examine the effect which the obsolescence of central city housing exerts on the decentralization within urban areas of high status residents. In particular, we investigate whether housing obsolescence is a useful addition to a model which explains the decentralization of high status residents in terms of the intensity of competition for central city land.
All of our data are official Census figures for 1970. The subjects of our study are Standard Metropolitan Statistical Are.as (SMSA.'s) whose central city had a population of 100,000 or more. From this group we delete the New York and Chicago Consolidated …
A Matrix Model Of The Public Social Welfare System For The Aged In The U.S.: A Research Proposal, Roger A. Lohmann
A Matrix Model Of The Public Social Welfare System For The Aged In The U.S.: A Research Proposal, Roger A. Lohmann
Faculty & Staff Scholarship
The creation or adaptation of planning tools will in all probability be an integral feature of the future development of social planning practice. One tool that offers a great deal of potential utility if it can be adapted to the constraints of the social planning milieu is matrix analysis utilizing input-output matrices. The specific focus of the proposed study is on the public welfare system of theaged in the United States. The fundamental hypothesis of the proposed matrix model proposed here is that the general overall characteristic most representative of the system of public social welfare for the aged is …
Medicare, Medicaid And The Geriatric Residential Environment, Nancy Lohmann, Roger A. Lohmann
Medicare, Medicaid And The Geriatric Residential Environment, Nancy Lohmann, Roger A. Lohmann
Faculty & Staff Scholarship
This article reports on a study of interstate differences in the availability of nursing home beds, personal care home slots and public housing, and attempts to assess the impact of the adoption of Medicare and Medicaid six years before on the availability of these components of what was termed the "geriatric residential environments continuum" or GRE. The underlying idea is that components of long-term health care, personal care and housing/shelter are three common elements of a wide variety of public policy for the aged.
