Synopsis

Providing legal mechanisms for maintaining and protecting aesthetic quality in the landscape, this reference work covers US local, state and federal land use control, and presents a detailed bibliography that co-ordinates the literature on the subject. In addition to describing legal mechanisms, the book also shows how definitions of landscape character and values can be developed and integrated in these mechanisms. Case studies are presented, discussing such issues as zoning, billboards and environmentally-sensitive areas.
