Decarbonising homes in cities in the Netherlands: a neighbourhood approachOECDregions
OECD presentation on decarbonising homes in cities in the Netherlands: a neighbourhood approach.
About 90% of homes in the Netherlands depend on natural gas for heating. The Netherlands has made a commitment to phase out natural gas by 2050. To achieve the goal, the Netherlands has rolled out a natural gas-free pilot programme in 66 neighbourhoods. These neighbourhood pilot projects enabled municipalities to learn what it takes to start energy transition. Based on a city survey carried out across 26 local governments, key findings from this report call on national and local governments joining up their efforts to take place-based measures.

This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.

13. Very little densification is taking place
• Very little densification of building stock on-going since 2000
• Less than 0.01% of developed land in data has changed to a
higher density class in Europe; less than 1% has changed in the
U.S.
• Caveat: existing data not ideal to measure density; only two
density classes for Europe; four density classes for the U.S.

14. • Many cities have densities similar to when
they were much smaller
Low density neighbourhoods that were once at
the urban fringe are now within urban cores
without having densified
• Greater densities are needed to adapt urban
form and build housing for greater
populations
• Public spaces need to be of high quality in
denser environments to ensure well-being
High quality density is needed
15. Mixed-use development facilitates

16. How to make planning more flexible and
foster good land use?
How land is used
Public policies aimed at steering
land use
• Spatial planning
• Transport planning
• Land use planning
• Environmental regulations
• Building code regulations
Public policies not targeted at
land use
• Tax policies
• Transport taxes and subsidies
• Fiscal systems and inter-
governmental transfers
• Agricultural policies
• Energy policies
How land is permitted to be used How individuals and businesses
want to use land
17. Fiscal and tax systems incentivise:
i. land use decisions by firms and
individuals
ii. local governments’ planning policies
Incentives need to be better aligned with
land use objectives
Aligning fiscal and tax incentives to land
use objectives
18. How fiscal and tax systems influence
land-use decisions by individuals
Home mortgage interest tax
deductibility encourages home
ownership
Since most owner-occupied
buildings are single-family
homes, home mortgage interest
tax deductibility encourages low
density development
Car owners do not have to pay for
the externalities of driving
Residents have incentives to live
further away from places of work
in peri-urban areas
19. Fiscal systems provide incentives to
local governments - examples
High local tax revenues from businesses allocate
land predominantly for commercial uses
• Israel (OECD, 2017)
• Germany (Buettner, 2016)
High local tax revenues from income taxes
zoning to attract (high-income) residents
• United States (Quigley & Raphael, 2005))
• Switzerland (Hilber & Schöni, 2015)
New developments create higher costs than
revenues little land is allocated for development
• United Kingdom (Cheshire & Hilber, 2008, Hilber 2016)
20. Incentive-based policies to steer land use
are underutilised in OECD countries
• Brownfield redevelopment incentives
• Historic rehabilitation tax credits
• Transfer of development rights
• Use-value tax assessment
• Development impact fees
• Betterment levies
Compared to other OECD countries, the
U.S. is leading in their use
22. The big picture
How land is used now and in the future
Institutions
Governance, legislation, rules, regulations, policies, plans,
fiscal frameworks, and the patterns of incentives and disincentives they create.
Mode of control or influence
Social norms
Social cohesion and trust
Economy and industrial composition
Social-economic and demographic characteristics and change over time
Legacies of the build environment and changing urban morphology
And so on…..
Exogenous to the planning system
23. Country and metropolitan cases
• Poland: Lodz
• France: Clermont Ferrand and
Nantes-Saint Nazaire
• The Netherlands: Amsterdam
• The Czech Republic: Prague
• Israel: Umm al Fahm and Netanya
24. • More complex and participatory strategic
spatial plans
• Broader governance arrangements
• Desire for more flexible and responsive
planning systems
Governance trends

COMPREHENSIVE PLANS
- Instruments for strategic planning and guide for the preparation of zoning ordinances
- Are advisory documents, municipalities may enforce them by ordinance
- In some states, municipalities are required to prepare a Comprehensive Plan before enacting Zoning Ordinances
- Local governments may create joint planning commissions for the preparation of regional or inter-municipal
Comprehensive Plans
STRATEGIC PLANS
- Define objectives for the spatial development of a state, referring in particular to policies at the local level
- Do not exist in most states
- 13 states have adopted a state-wide plan: Connecticut; Delaware; Florida; Georgia; Hawaii; Maine; Maryland; New
Hampshire; New Jersey; Oregon; Rhode Island; Vermont and Washington
- Content varies from state to state
ZONING ORDINANCES
- Contain map-based and text-based regulations of land use
- In most states, local governments are authorised, but not required to adopt Zoning Ordinances. Most, but not all, local
governments adopt zoning ordinances
