The Impact Of Leadership Training On The Development Of Selected Nebraska Communities, Gene M. Hanlon, Jack Ruff

Publications

Securing of appropriate resources is a vital activity for communities if they are to exist and grow in contemporary society. The increase in the size, scope, and complexity of municipal services has sometimes outpaced municipalities' capacities to manage those services. The ability of local leaders to manage a community's resources efficiently and effectively has been one of the central issues underlying community development trends throughout the past decade. New demands on local decision makers require innovative strategies to improve managerial skills among the cities' core leadership.

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "Burglary Offender Characteristics Can Be Predicted: Enhancing Investigation Efficiency Through the Development of Probability Models¹," by Chris W. Eskridge.

Crime is not a new phenomenon in American living. For decades, researchers have documented and projected the growth and devastating complexity of the crime problem in the United States, its causes, and its destructive effects on national life. The intense damage to innocent persons, property, and spirit, coupled with the lingering fear of unprovoked, unpredictable violence are indeed familiar entities in all realms of society.

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "Interstate Freeways Attract New Office Sites," by Murray Frost and Armin K. Ludwig.

Completion of the interstate highway network in American metropolitan areas has opened a wide variety of locational options for urban land uses. New office sites have been salient among these developments. The purpose of this study is to compare Interstate radial freeway corridors with other spatial units in Omaha and six other metropolitan areas to determine their differential attraction for new office sites in the period 1970-1976. The seven metropolitan areas studied were Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, Louisville, Minneapolis-St. …

The net migration figure was developed for a given county by subtracting the number of households …

Mayor, It Doesn't Wash, Chester Smolski

Smolski Texts

"One of the major achievements in the city of Providence over the past five years has been a vastly improved parks system. From the recently refurbished Hopkins Square in the North End to the newly constructed Market Square near the downtown, the restoration of open spaces in the city has been a distinct contribution to the urban environment. And nowhere are these improvements more manifest than in the 430 acres comprising Roger Williams Park, one of the principal city assets that is enjoyed by both resident and non-resident alike."

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "Mid-continent Net Migration Losses Decline: Centers of Net Migration Gains in the Great Plains, 1970-1976," by Armin K. Ludwig.

As a unit the American region known as the Great Plains suffered net migration losses in each of the five census periods prior to 1970. During the following six years, however, these losses had begun to abate.¹ This study examines the 1970-1976 net migration changes in a bloc of 320 nonmetropolitan, nonmetropolitan- fringe counties roughly coincident with the Great Plains and seeks to account for the higher net migration gains recorded …

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "New Migration Patterns Emerge in U.S.: The Movement of Metropolitan Populations to Nonmetropolitan America: Anomaly or Trend?" by David R. DiMartino.

Internal migration patterns have shifted markedly in the United States during the twentieth century. The exodus of rural populations to urban centers which dominated internal migration during the nineteenth century continued into the twentieth. By mid-century, however, that earlier pattern had given way to different, dominant trends. On the one hand, urban centers had grown massively and were sprawling rapidly out· ward, creating a pattern of decentralized metropolitan populations in …

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "Change Develops in Migration Patterns: Destinations of Household Moves from the City of Omaha, 1975-76 and 1977-78," by Armin K. Ludwig.

American Migratory Patterns between 1970 and 1976 began to reflect a growing tendency for metropolitan counties (SMSA's)1 to suffer net migration losses and for nonmetropolitan counties to record net migration gains. The nonmetropolitan counties which had the largest net gains were those which are contiguous to an SMSA and which thus form a metropolitan fringe. This contiguity of SMSA and fringe suggests that a loss in a given SMSA is …

For more than a century Americans have migrated from the rural communities in which they were raised, but by 1970 this process had begun to change. Nebraska, however, has not reflected this change, and as late as 1976 the State stood alone among seven central and southern plains states in having non-metropolitan losses in population.! Nevertheless, during the 1970's the number of manufacturing industries in the State's …

Stimulus For R.I. Housing, Chester Smolski

Smolski Texts

"It was the single largest bond issue in the state and one of the largest in the nation. The Rhode Island Housing and Mortgage Finance Corporation (HMFC) has sold $163 million of tax-free bonds, $142 million of which will be made available at below market interest rates to persons with annual incomes up to $30,000, to buy homes in Rhode Island. This will have a sizable impact on the local real estate market and increase housing opportunities for many prospective home buyers."
