What is an urban growth boundary?
We’ve already talked about how sprawl can be an issue and as to why it occurs. However, preventing sprawl can be achieved. One of these mechanisms is called an urban growth boundary (UGB)
An urban growth boundary is a regional boundary, set in an attempt to control urban sprawl by, in its simplest form, mandating that the area inside grow within that area only.
Within this boundary, growth must occur within and cannot grow beyond the boundaries unless there is a change in boundaries. Notably urban services such as water, sewer and electricity are also prevalent within these areas, allowing for growth in underdeveloped areas. Each local government or jurisdiction outlines and carves out th...

What is the First Mile/Last Mile problem?
Просмотров 2,2 тыс.3 года назад
Commonly referred to as the "First Mile/Last Mile Problem" or "Last Mile Problem", is a problem that faces public transit, especially in the United States. Just think of the following scenario. Would you walk over a mile to catch the bus to get to work? Or would you rather just drive your automobile to work? Well it might be easier to drive, but also for many, that might not be the case.

    First, I really believe that "comfortable distance" is extremely short...distance to a storefront in a driving rain, for example. Second, when I arrive at the "Stop" for my mass transit vehicle and leg of the journey, I'm once again left to the elements in too many cases. I suggest the mass transit pickup points need to be as comfortable and useful as waiting inside a large convenience store, coffee shop, retail mall, etc, with seats or browsing(shopping) options. The last mile vehicle should pickup and drop off at or extremely near the end of my driveway, which would truly demand a fixed route with predictable pickup times, 24/7. Make my ride truly a possession...something I can count on, like my car being just a short sprint in that driving rain, and my only inconvenience was dropping my keys before entering my vehicles protective cabin. Why would you expect me to give up this convenience to wait in the sun, rain, snow, splashing of passing vehicles, long waits, inconvenient route times, etc., etc., etc. ? Why? To save the planet? I'm not that generous, or needy. I worked to make sure I would never be that needy. Now, build a system that makes me think I have my own personal driver. Then I'll gladly get on board, and pay a healthy sum to do so.

      Urban sprawl isn't fine. Up until the invention of the car cities were dense, walkable, and relied heavily on public transportation. Back then if you wanted space you would go live out in the country, for some reason developers began building country-style single family homes within major urban areas and they are a very bad use of space. They are also less efficient with energy, water, and money. Urban sprawl costs the US economy 1 trillion dollars every year because the land is being used so inefficiently. We don't have to live like sardines, building denser doesn't mean everywhere is going to be like Tokyo or Mumbai, we could simply build similar to how we did before cars became a thing, where town homes and apartment complexes near street car lines and bus routes were the more common way of living, and where everything you needed was within a 5 minute walk from your house. It's a much better use of space and much better for the economy and environment.

  • @nthperson
    @nthperson 2 года назад

    Planning is important to provide the right balance of land uses. This needs to be accomplished with citizen participation and robust public education. That said, the one essential but almost everywhere ignored is the most efficient and equitable approaches to raising revenue to pay for public goods and services. Economic theory tells us that in theory all taxation of property improvements ought to be eliminated. Our buildings are depreciating assets. The imposition of an annual property tax on the depreciated value of a building equates to a sales tax imposed year after year after year. If this is rational, then communities ought to tax the depreciated value of all other forms of tangible assets (e.g., our automobiles, our computers, our telephones, our lawn mowers, our refrigerators, etc. etc. etc.). This is clearly irrational. A very different argument exists regarding the parcels of land on which our buildings are constructed. Land parcels are not a depreciating asset. Moreover, the value of a location has everything to do with the quality of public goods and services brought to the location and nothing to do with what the individual owner does or does not do to improve the location. The optimum public charge (or tax) to the owner is the potential annual rental value of the location as determined by market forces. By making the above change in how property is taxed, land in our cities would be brought to its highest, best use. Land prices would fall to levels that encourage the construction of residential, commercial and other buildings and discourages the hoarding of locations and speculation in land that causes development to sprawl outward in search of less costly locations. For more insight into the role of tax policy on the health of cities, search on: site value taxation, land value taxation, land value capture, or land value return
