Land Use Planning is the
study of how local communities plan and regulate the
use of their lands. The course covers traditional
planning, zoning, and subdivision controls and also
examines the following topics:
- agricultural issues in land use
- land use on tribal lands
- local regulation of environmental issues
- the connection between growth and water quality
and supply
- environmental justice issues arising from land
use decisions
- private land use controls
Students attend live public hearings on land
use issues, develop their analytical and presentation
skills, and practice ordinance drafting skills. Land
Use Planning is a prerequisite course for enrollment in
the Land Use Clinic. |
