About the Book

This volume offers the first detailed assessment of the Florida growth management experience, a system that has received only piecemeal attention from researchers despite its historical significance and its state-mandated comprehensive planning approach. Because Florida's approach is the most detailed system for managing growth in the US, one that embraces planners and planning in the day-to-day governance of all areas of the state, this book will be of great value to the planning profession as it offers an assessment of one of the most planning-affirmative policy approaches in the United States. With contributions from national experts on land use planning and growth management, this volume offers an assessment of the outcomes of the Florida's approach to managing growth. Over the course of the book, the strengths and weaknesses of the state's approach are identified, providing insights into how and when to manage land use change in a state continuously inundated by growth. In evaluating the successes and failures of the Florida approach, planners and policy makers throughout the United States will learn lessons about how and how not to implement growth management policies at both the state and local level. Overall, while the authors concur that growth management has had a positive impact on restricting growth in Florida, the economic, demographic, and political pressures for continued growth in Florida make it difficult to restrict growth in a way that has had a major impact on the state's natural and built environment-Florida continues to be a sprawling state that is rapidly expanding its urbanized areas even though growth management appears to have had an impact on limiting the spread of growth still further.
