Assignment 4: Planning Tools Application
Through the course of this semester a number of planning tools
have been presented: Comprehensive planning, Zoning, public
involvement, GIS, NEPA, public health impact assessments,
capital improvement programing, housing development, and
transportation planning. See the syllabus if you have questions
about what is considered a tool.
Consider the problem of homelessness along the Wasatch Front,
discuss how planning tools could be best used to help analyze
the underlying problems and present potential solutions.
Assuming the legislature allocated $100M to help alleviate the
problem, how could these funds best be utilized? What would
the anticipated impacts be? Alternatively you can choose a
different topic from the Envision Utah,
Your Utah Your Future
, list and consider similar questions:
Agriculture
Air Quality
Disaster Resilience
Education
Energy
Housing and Cost of Living
Jobs and Economy
Public Lands
Recreation
Transportation and Communities
Water
The paper can be up to 8-9 pages. Feel free to include graphics
or other materials to help illustrate points you are making.
Further key questions to consider:
What is the underlying problem? Market availability, supply,
demand, etc.
What research tools could be applied to better understand the
problem?
Why is the recommended tool the best?
How long would it take to apply the recommended tool?
How can the planning tools discussed help provide more
information to decision makers?
Are there ways to present information to the public and include
them in the decision making process?
Please turn this assignment in through Canvas on December 7
before 6:00 PM. Any assignment received after 6:00 PM is
considered late. See the syllabus for late penalties definitions.
