A Study Of The City Second Mortgage Program In San Jose, Christina Diaz Perez

Master's Projects

"Affordable Housing," homeownership; does it really exist? Isn't the word "affordable" used loosely in today's real estate market? "Affordable housing," particularly in California, is out of reach for many first-time homebuyers. The issue of the lack of affordable housing became prevalent in the 1980's when the California real estate market boomed and housing prices rapidly increased from a median of $68,700 in 1980 to $194,300 in 1990. At the same time, incomes in California rose from $19,170 in 1980 to just $40,559 in 1990. Depressed incomes, coupled with high housing prices, leave many moderate-income homebuyers with a need to fill …

Airport Land Use Planning In California: A Draft Comprehensice Land Use Plan For The Marina Municipal Airport, William F. Hopkins

Master's Projects

In 1967 the state of California enacted legislation requiring the creation of local Airport Land Use Commissions (ALUCs). The purpose of the ALUCs was to make recommendations to local governments regarding the height of structures and the use of land surrounding airports. In 1970 the law was expanded to require that ALUCs prepare Comprehensive Land Use Plans (CLUPs) that would provide land use controls to ensure the compatible use of land surrounding airports. Although the law has been amended several times since its enactment (14 times to be exact), the CLUP has remained the primary vehicle for ensuring the orderly …

Continuum Of Care Plan, Eric P. Keeler

Master's Projects

The social problem of homelessness has been acknowledged as existing in Santa Clara County since 1982. Many efforts and organizations have been developed to reduce the number of homeless persons and combat the problem but the issue continues to exist.

The purpose of this report is to shed some light on the issue of homelessness; describe the services that exist to move the county in a concerted way towards an improved grasp of the problem; and outline the steps that could be undertaken to move the county towards solving or controlling the problem.

Planning And Economic Conversion - A Case Study: The Closure Of Mare Island Naval Shipyard, Howard B. Siegel

Master's Projects

This report explores the need for new urban planning methodologies in response to massive global shifts, including the end of the Cold War, widespread military base closures, and the escalating conflict between population growth and resource depletion. As the economy transitions from defense and manufacturing toward an information-based global model, traditional top-down decision-making and adversarial litigation are no longer sufficient for modern planning challenges such as redevelopment, remediation, and reuse. Using the economic conversion of closed military bases to civilian use as a primary case study, this study illustrates the necessity of adaptive, multi-disciplinary planning frameworks. Ultimately, the research advocates …

San Jose Lrt Extension Alternatives: A Downtown To Eastern San Jose Case Study Using Gis As A Desktop Analysis Tool, Sandi L. Domingue

Master's Projects

This report examines the historical development and implementation of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) system in Santa Clara County, focusing on the 20-mile Guadalupe Corridor. Driven by rapid population growth and escalating traffic demands, the project was conceived to connect southern San Jose's residential areas with northern industrial centers while revitalizing the downtown district. The study details the planning, funding, and construction phases of the $545 million project, which began in the early 1980s under the administration of the Santa Clara County Transportation Agency (SCCTA) and was supported by a coalition of federal, state, and local funding. Furthermore, the report …

Real Estate Appraisal Considerations For Urban Planners, Mary Kay Redmond

Master's Projects

This report examines the critical intersection of urban planning and real estate economics, focusing on how external environmental factors and changing market conditions impact residential property values. As planners increasingly navigate community resistance to Locally Unwanted Land Uses (LULUs) and engage in complex financial negotiations with developers, a foundational understanding of real estate principles has become essential. The study analyzes the effects of specific externalities—including traffic, floodplains, and high voltage transmission lines (HVTLs)—on property valuation through applied case studies and core appraisal concepts like market value and "Highest and Best Use." Furthermore, the paper addresses broader economic dynamics, evaluating feasibility …
