1 like•453 views
The city of Lewiston, Maine has successfully transitioned from an economy based on manufacturing to a more diverse one through sustained efforts over many years. It was once a thriving manufacturing center with Bates Mill as the largest private employer in the state, but faced decline in the 1960s as textile industry moved south. However, nearly $500 million in public and private investment over the past decade redeveloped mill complexes and improved infrastructure, supporting growth in healthcare, education, and other sectors. The city has engaged the public and formed partnerships to create plans that redefine spaces and pursue economic development, housing, and quality of life initiatives with a vision for continued renewal.

Adopting and Implementing a Metropolitan Plan: Portland Metro's Experience
Adopting and Implementing a Metropolitan Plan: Portland Metro's ExperienceCongress for the New Urbanism
According to data from the U.S. Census and Department of Commerce, bicycling as a mode of commuting in Portland has increased 275% since 1996 while driving has slowly declined. Public transportation and walking have also increased, rising 25% and 15% respectively. The document then discusses Portland's land use plans and policies that have directed growth into the urban core and conserved rural lands, promoting compact development, housing choice, and alternative transportation options.Building Sustainable Communities: Urban Planning in the Portland Metro Regi...
Presentation by Oregon Metro Councilor Collette in which she give a general overview of the Metro Portland region and the role of the elected Oregon Metro Council. She gives information on Metro’s role in land-use planning, the urban growth boundary, and the region’s long-term planning document: Region 2040. She focuses on the link between land-use planning and transportation plan, and how Portland is in the business of designing multi-modal transportation corridors today. She also outlines the region’s priorities for high-capacity transport or light rail, and other orders of public and active transit. There is a case study on Tigard.
RailNation Conference 2019: Rural-Urban Rail by Karen Christensen
While there is lots of focus on metropolitan transit needs and major intercity lines, a connection that has been primary throughout human history is largely ignored. That is, the connection between cities and outlying rural areas. In the past, these were essential as sources of food, and human capital. Today, at a time when climate change and economic inequity have become pressing global issues, it is vital that we develop new, mutually beneficial urban-rural connections. In terms of economic development, reduced emissions, affordable housing for city workers, access to jobs and education for rural residents, passenger rail is transformative. It is, however, hard to get attention from city-centered governments. There are many efforts to restore passenger service throughout the United States, and Karen Christensen explains how we are overcoming cross-border and funding challenges by engaging citizens and coming up with 21st-century approaches to running a passenger rail service.
Connecticut River Valley Commuter Rail Project
The document proposes establishing a commuter rail line along an existing railroad in New Hampshire and Vermont, with stops in Claremont Junction, Windsor, and White River Junction. The goals are to create alternative transportation, improve integration of transportation and housing, spur affordable housing development near stations, develop and improve infrastructure, and reduce single-occupancy vehicle use. Federal grants could fund 80% of initial costs. Private business support and development rights could provide additional funding. A bi-state committee would coordinate stakeholders to assess current infrastructure, conduct market analyses, and gain public input to plan for implementation of the commuter rail system.
Urbanisation
This document discusses characteristics of urban areas and the process of urbanization. It defines urbanization as an increase in the proportion of the population living in urban areas and engaging in non-agricultural activities. Factors that contribute to urbanization include population increase, industrialization, and the location of resources. The problems of urbanization include economic issues like unemployment and poverty; social issues like crime and family breakdown; infrastructural issues with shortages of housing, schools, and transportation; and administrative challenges of controlling crime and traffic. Solutions proposed include improving conditions in rural areas to reduce migration to cities and expanding infrastructure, housing, education and employment opportunities in urban areas.
High-Speed-Rail-Livable-Communities-Policy-Trends
1. Illinois is well positioned to receive federal funding for high-speed rail projects due to leadership from Governor Quinn, the state's technical expertise in passenger rail, and strong financial commitments.
2. Federal policy is trending towards supporting sustainable jobs and livable communities through integrated transportation, housing, and land use planning.
3. Illinois and its rail communities have signed agreements to collaborate on capturing federal funds and developing rail corridors that promote sustainable, livable, and green communities through strategic planning and incentives.
compact cities vs. urban sprawl
This document discusses compact cities and urban sprawl. It defines a compact city as having high residential density, mixed land uses, and an efficient transportation system to reduce energy consumption and pollution. Benefits include lower costs, less resource use, and more social interaction. Examples given are Melbourne, Toyama, Vancouver, and Curitiba. Urban sprawl is defined as uncontrolled urban growth into rural areas, characterized by low densities and car dependency, which increases infrastructure costs. The document suggests limiting sprawl to better manage expenses and control population growth.
2 Ospcd
The document discusses how the city of Somerville has channeled change in a positive direction. It summarizes that Somerville knows where it came from by reviewing historical trends, determines which current trends to build on as strengths and weaknesses to address, and sets a clear long-term vision for the future through community involvement and implementation of comprehensive plans. Examples of Somerville leveraging transit investments and implementing plans through projects like Assembly Row are provided.

To make Indian cities comparable to world-class cities like New York, Moscow, and Tokyo, future cities need better urban infrastructure and amenities to support rapid population growth. Both planning new cities and improving existing ones with reliable drinking water, electricity, sanitation, and transportation infrastructure can help address issues like overpopulation, crime, pollution, and poor living standards. Developing solar power and sustainable water management strategies will help ensure access to critical resources for future generations.

City Partnerships Challenge - Melbourne Metro 2 brief
Melbourne Metro 2 is a proposed rail link between the Werribee and Mernda lines via a tunnel under the CBD from Newport to Clifton Hill. This would improve access and network capacity. The project aims to facilitate jobs growth along the corridor connecting major employment centers. The key objective is to undertake a full business case for the project alongside the recently announced Suburban Rail Loop. This would integrate land use and transport planning to maximize community benefits like local jobs, affordable housing, and sustainable outcomes. Currently there is high car dependency in Hobsons Bay leading to issues. There is also a lack of local jobs and integrated strategic planning. Solutions include collaborative land use and transport planning prioritizing broader benefits, and strategic network planning to

While other cities sprawled, expanding suburbs and highways, Metro Vancouver, BC, invested in transit, complete communities and compact development to create "Cities in a Sea of Green." After two decades of progress, voters rejected a referendum to expand the region's transit system. How was a community convinced to vote against a funding measure that supported the sustainable ethos they'd embraced for so long? Was it really the successful work of anti-government crusaders? Join in a discussion of the Vancouver experience and see what lessons you can take home.

This document provides an outline for a report on representing a future city. It begins with an introduction describing the mayor's responsibility to solve problems facing the city of "X" and plan for its citizens' future needs. It then reviews definitions of a city and its key elements. Several past and present cities are investigated, focusing on their water systems, geometric shapes, and energy sources. This information is considered for application to the new planned city. The document proposes that the mayor will name the rebuilt city the "Half-Sphere City" as it will be enclosed in a large glass shield for protection from climate disasters.
Regenerating America's Legacy Cities
The document outlines 10 ways to regenerate legacy cities in America that have experienced population decline and loss of industry. It advocates for having faith in downtown areas and viable neighborhoods, strategically demolishing vacant structures, reinventing the economic base around local assets, ensuring all residents benefit from changes, and taking an incremental approach through collaboration rather than large projects. It also calls for building stronger local governance, regional ties, and reconsidering state and federal policies toward legacy cities so they can regain prosperity.
Decongesting a Liveable Region Through Transit Investment
For the past five years the City of Vancouver, Canada has consistently ranked as one of the most liveable cities in the world, yet in the last two years it has been proclaimed North America’s most congested city. This paradox is compounded at the regional level by having the third highest transit ridership in North America, behind New York City and Toronto, but one of the lowest per capita investment rates in transit.
As a region, Metro Vancouver (composed of 21 municipalities, a First Nation, and Electoral Area) committed over twenty years ago to managing urban sprawl by linking transportation and land use planning, providing frequent and reliable transit service to densified urban centres and corridors. And this commitment is no more salient than in the City of Surrey, a suburban city that is rapidly urbanizing, and is set to become the region’s second largest urban centre in the next thirty years.
But, Metro Vancouver is currently at a crossroads – to maintain the livability of the region and address congestion significant investments in transit are required. In an upcoming regional transit referendum the public will be asked to support a suite of tax increases including congestion pricing, fuel taxes, and a regional carbon tax to fund the expansion of the transit network.
Bunbury City Vision Forum 30th July 2005
The document outlines the City Vision plan developed by an independent Taskforce for the city of Bunbury, Western Australia. The Taskforce was formed to integrate previous land use and transport studies into a common future plan.

A Farm is a Business - GSMSummit 2014, Lisa Turner
Why plan for growth and change, when it seems so much easier to simply react?
When there is a distinct and shared vision for your community - when residents, businesses and local government anticipate a sustainable town with cohesive and thriving neighborhoods - you have the power to conserve your beautiful natural spaces, enhance your existing downtown or Main Street, enable rural areas to be productive and prosperous, and save money through efficient use of existing infrastructure.
This is the dollars and sense of smart growth.
Success is clearly visible in Maine, from the creation of a community-built senior housing complex and health center in Fort Fairfield to conservation easements creating Forever Farms to Rockland's revitalized downtown. Communities have options. We have the power to manage our own responses to growth and change.
After all, “Planning is a process of choosing among those many options. If we do not choose to plan, then we choose to have others plan for us.” - Richard I. Winwood
And in the end, this means that our children and their children will choose to make Maine home and our economy will provide the opportunities to do so.
The Summit offers you a wonderful opportunity to be a part of the transformative change in Maine that we’ve seen these gatherings produce. We encourage you to consider the value of being actively involved in growing Maine’s economy and protecting the reasons we choose to live here.

The Maine DOT project aims to assess vulnerability of transportation assets to sea level rise and integrate climate considerations into asset management. The project will:
1) Identify vulnerable assets under three sea level rise scenarios for six coastal communities.
2) Rate criticality of vulnerable assets using a decision support tool.
3) Develop design options for selected assets that are adapted to projected sea level rise versus replacing in-kind.
4) Estimate costs and benefits of replacement approaches to inform asset management.
"Smart Money on Smart Growth", Evan Richert. Summit 2012, 10/23/12
This document discusses trends in housing preferences and how they are shaping development in Maine. It notes that over half of all homebuyers fall into three categories - Small Town Civics, Young Turks, and Introspectives - but only a small portion of new housing addresses their preferences. Four forces - the recession, gas prices, connectivity, and generation Y - are changing the market. Younger generations prefer walkable urban and small town living near amenities over car-dependent suburbs. Developers are starting to tap into this demand through mixed-use projects, mill redevelopment, transit-oriented development, and infill that support walkability.

Sarah Devlin - Gorham East West Corridor Feasibility Study
This document summarizes a feasibility study conducted by the Maine Turnpike Authority and MaineDOT on transportation infrastructure needs in the Gorham area of Cumberland County, Maine. The study evaluated current and projected traffic congestion, safety issues, impacts on rural character, and where transportation dollars should be invested over the long term. It found that if current trends of residential and job growth continuing to spread farther apart along existing roads continued, it would result in more time spent in cars and more land consumed for development. The study tested an alternative "urban and rural" land use pattern that located more housing and jobs closer together near existing infrastructure to reduce sprawl and promote more sustainable transportation options like transit. It concluded that evaluating both land use and transportation

U.S. home prices have dropped 33% since 2006, with 28% of homes underwater. Many shopping malls and strip malls are vacant or struggling. However, Florida continues approving over 2500 amendments for future development. Retrofitting existing developments is proposed as an alternative to perpetuating sprawl. Strategies include redevelopment, reinhabitation, re-greening, and removing obstacles to retrofitting. Examples demonstrate transforming malls, offices, and strips into walkable mixed-use areas with housing, parks, and transit. Further policies, tools, and research can advance the retrofitting of suburban areas.

And in the end, this means that our children and their children will choose to make Maine home and our economy will provide the opportunities to do so.
The Summit offers you a wonderful opportunity to be a part of the transformative change in Maine that we’ve seen these gatherings produce. We encourage you to consider the value of being actively involved in growing Maine’s economy and protecting the reasons we choose to live here.
Where to Start With Climate Change - GSMSummit 2014, Liz Hertz
This document provides guidance for municipalities on addressing climate change at the local level. It recommends starting with community engagement and partnerships to understand local concerns. Municipalities should then review climate data and projections, assess vulnerabilities, and integrate climate change considerations into existing plans and policies. The process takes time but focusing on priority impacts and using available resources can help communities begin practical steps to plan for and adapt to climate change.
Smart Growth for Maine Fisheries Communities in the Face of Climate Change - ...
The Island Institute works to sustain Maine's island and coastal communities through various program areas, including community and economic development, marine programs, education, and community energy. The document discusses how fish and lobster populations are shifting in Maine in response to climate change, with warming waters causing lobsters to thrive while groundfish populations decline. It also notes other observed impacts of climate change on Maine fishing communities and efforts underway to help communities adapt, including supporting sustainable fisheries and aquaculture, community energy efficiency projects, and education programs.
Cultivating New Opportunities for Food-Based Businesses - GSMSummit 2014, Dan...
Why plan for growth and change, when it seems so much easier to simply react?
When there is a distinct and shared vision for your community - when residents, businesses and local government anticipate a sustainable town with cohesive and thriving neighborhoods - you have the power to conserve your beautiful natural spaces, enhance your existing downtown or Main Street, enable rural areas to be productive and prosperous, and save money through efficient use of existing infrastructure.
This is the dollars and sense of smart growth.
Success is clearly visible in Maine, from the creation of a community-built senior housing complex and health center in Fort Fairfield to conservation easements creating Forever Farms to Rockland's revitalized downtown. Communities have options. We have the power to manage our own responses to growth and change.
After all, “Planning is a process of choosing among those many options. If we do not choose to plan, then we choose to have others plan for us.” - Richard I. Winwood
And in the end, this means that our children and their children will choose to make Maine home and our economy will provide the opportunities to do so.

Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits: Using Tax Incentives to Develop and Inve...
This document summarizes key federal and state tax incentives for historic preservation projects, including the Rehabilitation Tax Credit (RTC). It provides details on the 10% and 20% RTC, including eligibility requirements and calculations. Projects must be "substantial rehabilitations" exceeding $5,000 or the building basis. The document discusses important dates in the history of the RTC and statistics on RTC projects. It also outlines the application process for the RTC through the National Park Service and considerations for tax-exempt entities and mitigating recapture risks.
