This book introduces community planning as practiced in the United States, focusing on the comprehensive plan. Sometimes known by other names especially master plan or general plan the type of plan described here is the predominant form of general governmental planning in the U.S. Although many government agencies make plans for their own programs or facilities, the comprehensive plan is the only planning document that considers multiple programs and that accounts for activities on all land located within the planning area, including both public and private property.

Review

"Eric Damian Kelly's "Community Planning, Second Edition" is nothing less than a master work planning practice. Whether you are a student or seasoned pro, you absolutely cannot be withou it. Kelly goes well beyond the conventional land use perspective in describing the formulation of comprehensive plans and addressing all plan elements and how they fit together. Moreover, he teases out implementation issues in evey chapter, propelling the reader from analysis to action. Finally there is always an ethical backdrop in this book, distinguishing it from others in the field. Kelly reminds us that we are commanded to 'replenish the earth' as a basic concept in sustainability--wise advice, like everything in this magnificent text."--Stuart Meck "Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy, Rutgers University "
