The Savvy Planner - Elaine Van S. Carmichael - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Savvy Planner - Elaine Van S. Carmichael - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

An engaging and empowering handbook, The Savvy Planner is an essential reference for professional and lay planners that work for community change. Planners will reach for The Savvy Planner whenever questions about process, partnerships and securing commitments—the people side of planning—arise. Why do plans succeed or fail? Too often plans bog down in a quicksand of endless process, political infighting and technical detail that alienate the constituencies needed to get anything done. How communities engage in planning affects whether they achieve change, often more than do market and other external factors. The book addresses crucial topics such as: - - how to gather key data and information, - - - how to build teams and manage change, - - - opposition amongst stakeholders, - - - and how to begin implementing a plan. - You too can learn to spot the factors and conditions that allow some places to overcome inertia and move ahead, while other communities fail to attain lift off. The Savvy Planner shares new ways to approach planning and, along the way, to open minds to the promise planning offers our communities and our future. It is essential reading for community planners, activists, policy makers, development leaders and students preparing for these roles.

The Monthly Mask of Vocal Music 1702–1711 - Thelma Wilson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Monthly Mask of Vocal Music 1702–1711 - Thelma Wilson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Monthly Mask is a fascinating series of 360 songs, of immensely varied interest, showing what the public bought month by month as songs to sing, play and teach. It ran from November 1702 to September 1711, and offered the ''newest Songs'', with theatre songs often appearing within a week of their premieres. Political events were also quickly reflected. The Monthly Mask is an important resource for scholars of the musical, theatrical, political and social life of the early 18th century. There are songs by nearly 50 composers, including all the leading English figures between Purcell and Handel. One Purcell song is published for the first time and there are many songs not to be found elsewhere. Besides the theatres, there is music for the court, York Buildings, Stationers'' Hall, Richmond Wells and May Fair, as well as for banquets for the Post Office and the Ordnance Board. The Monthly Mask covers the chief part of Queen Anne''s reign and the triumphs and fall of the Duke of Marlborough. There are songs in celebration of all of Marlborough''s victories, toasts to England''s allies and satires mocking the French king and the Pretender. The appeal of the periodical to theatre historians is considerable. It not only gives details of songs and their singers for many plays, but also reflects the changes in the use of music in the theatre during this period. The emergence of female star singers, the advent of all-sung operas, the enormous success of the first English opera in the Italian style (Arsinoe), the marginalisation of incidental music in plays after the formation of the opera company, and the triumph of Italian opera are all clearly traceable. This complete facsimile is exceptionally useful for librarians and sellers of antiquarian music, not only for correctly dating any single monthly issues but, more importantly, for attributing dates to a huge number of otherwise undateable single songsheets run off from the Monthly Mask plates.

The Equity Planner - Jason King - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Equity Planner - Jason King - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Economic development is intended to benefit everyone in a community; however, in many cases, increased public and private investment can result in the pricing out and displacement of existing residents and businesses. How do we achieve more equitable outcomes? The Equity Planner provides a toolkit of practical solutions for planners and all those involved in placemaking to promote thoughtful, inclusive planning. Each chapter of The Equity Planner examines one particular aspect of inequity in the urban planning sphere, covering issues such as identity retention, affordability, and the protection and enhancement of local assets. While each chapter offers practicable solutions to these issues, the "Notes from the Field" sections describe how these same tools have been used (either successfully or unsuccessfully) in projects the author has been involved in, with a particular focus on the local resistance each project encountered. These real-world case studies are used to suggest methods to overcome such resistance, which the reader can then apply to their present initiatives. This book is written for urban planners, local activists, social scientists, policymakers, and anyone with an interest in equity planning. This book will be of use to both practicing and training urban planners and architects who seek to add equity planning to their professional repertoire.

The Climate Planner - Jason King - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Climate Planner - Jason King - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Climate Planner is about overcoming the objections to climate change mitigation and adaption that urban planners face at a local level. It shows how to draft climate plans that encounter less resistance because they involve the public, stakeholders, and decisionmakers in a way that builds trust, creates consensus, and leads to implementation. Although focused on the local level, this book discusses climate basics such as carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the Paris Agreement of 2015, worldwide energy generation forecasts, and other items of global concern in order to familiarize urban planners and citizen planners with key concepts that they will need to know in order to be able to host climate conversations at the local level. The many case studies from around the United States of America show how communities have encountered pushback and bridged the implementation gap, the gap between plan and reality, thanks to a commitment to substantive public engagement. The book is written for urban planners, local activists, journalists, elected or appointed representatives, and the average citizen worried about climate breakdown and interested in working to reshape the built environment.

From Student to Urban Planner - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

From Student to Urban Planner - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

For many young planners, the noble intentions with going to planning school seem starkly out of place in the neoliberal worlds they have come to inhabit. For some, the huge gap between the power they thought they would have and what they actually do is not only worrying, but also deeply discouraging. But for some others, practice means finding practical and creative solutions to overcome challenges and complexities. How do young planners in different settings respond to seemingly similar situations like these? What do they do – give up, adjust, or fight back? What role did their planning education play, and could it have helped in preparing and assisting them to respond to the world they are encountering? In this edited volume, stories of young planners from sixteen countries that engage these questions are presented. The sixteen cases range from settings with older, established planning systems (e.g., USA, the Netherlands, and the UK) to settings where the system is less set (e.g., Brazil), being remodeled (e.g., South Africa and Bosnia Herzegovina), and under stress (e.g., Turkey and Poland). Each chapter explores what might be done differently to prepare young planners for the complexities and challenges of their ‘real worlds’. This book not only points out what is absent, but also offers planning educators an alternative vision. The editors and esteemed contributors provide reflections and suggestions as to how this new generation of young planners can be supported to survive in, embrace, and change the world they are encountering, and, in the spirit of planning, endeavor to ‘change it for the better’.

Emergency Planning for Nuclear Power Plants - Paul Elkmann - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Emergency Planning for Nuclear Power Plants - Paul Elkmann - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book provides a history of emergency planning with respect to nuclear power plant accidents from the 1950’s to the 2000’s. It gives an overview of essential concepts that a working emergency planner should know, including brief overviews of the health physics and plant engineering that applies to emergency planning. Each chapter covers topics unique to radiological planning that distinguish it from planning for natural disasters. Some of the topics include processes that damage fuel, reactor source terms, basic dispersion theory, protective measures for the public and emergency worker, environmental surveys, and the essential elements of a drill and exercise program. Emergency Planning for Nuclear Power Plants is not intended as a guide to meeting regulatory requirements but provides an understanding of the essential concepts and language of radiological planning, so the planner can apply those concepts to their particular situation.

John Nolen and the Metropolitan Landscape - Jody Beck - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

John Nolen and the Metropolitan Landscape - Jody Beck - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

"A model city, the hope of democracy" – John Nolen on his suggested plans for Madison, Wisconsin This book connects John Nolen''s political and social visions with his design proposals by analyzing his extensive writings, personal correspondence and some of his most significant works. While John Nolen is best known as a city planner, he trained as a landscape architect and used the titles ''landscape architect'' and ''city planner'' interchangeably throughout his career. A prolific practitioner, he was engaged in nearly 400 projects throughout the United States between 1905 and 1936, including town planning, industrial housing, state and city parks, new towns and regional planning. Focusing particularly on several projects central to Nolen’s career including Madison (WI), Mariemont (OH), Venice (FL) and Penderlea (NC), Beck investigates the ideologies that underpinned Nolen’s work. This is a rare look at a key figure in the development of 20 th century American cities.

The TVA Regional Planning and Development Program - David A. Johnson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The TVA Regional Planning and Development Program - David A. Johnson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is a world-renowned model for regional planning and development. Based along the Tennessee River and its series of hydro-electric power stations, dams and reservoirs, the TVA development program envisioned a broad regional planning program. The program focused on development opportunities and problems around the array of TVA dams and their reservoirs. It also created new ''model'' towns and pioneered land-use planning bringing together federal, state, and local agencies, farmers, foresters and industrial firms to further the economic, social, and physical conditions of what had been one of the most seriously lagging regions of the U.S. This book is based on the memoirs and experiences of Aelred J. Gray, former planner with the TVA, who saw the ''big picture'' and introduced much of the pioneering work of the agency. Gray worked as a staff planner at the TVA for nearly 40 years including a decade as its chief planner, overseeing numerous changes and developments to the Authority''s program. As well as building up the regional industrial development and the foundation of state parks, he also had a strong interest in the region''s cities. In the 1950s he introduced TVA''s landmark Flood Prevention Program, which became a national model. His review of how this innovative and influential regional development agency functioned and changed through the decades will be of value to all those interested in planning practice, planning history, and regional politics.

The Ethical Planning Practitioner - Jerry Weitz - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Ethical Planning Practitioner - Jerry Weitz - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

If a local college gives a city planner tickets to a sold-out football game, is it wrong to take them — even if the planner pays? Should a planning consultant bid on a project that has a clearly unrealistic timeframe? Can a planning director moonlight for another agency? For practicing planners, potential ethics violations abound, and the eye of public scrutiny never blinks. Planners need a guide, and now they have it: the first guidebook based on the current revision of the AICP (American Institute of Certified Planners) Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct. The Ethical Planning Practitioner presents 76 scenarios, all real-life dilemmas based on the code’s rules of conduct. Each scenario comes with tools to help planners explore the answers on their own, in a training session, or in a classroom. When you buy the guide through APA, you get something more: a recording author Jerry Weitz, FAICP, made with former AICP President Dwight Merriam, FAICP. Together they review three short videos, talk about the ethical situations they represent, and suggest the actions planners could take. The recording comes with a PowerPoint presentation that makes it a powerful teaching aid. This vital handbook looks at everyday ethics the way planners need to see them, in black, white, and shades of gray — but most of all, clearly. The Ethical Practicing Planner will not only instruct but inspire planners to strengthen the public’s trust.

Geomorphology and Engineering - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Whether the project is river engineering, soil mapping for landuse planning, or control of landslides, this volume, first published in 1976, illustrates that the professional partnership between geomorphology and engineering can significantly minimize environmental damage. The papers here were presented at the 7th Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium, and using the broad viewpoint of the planner, much new ground is covered: landfill design, prediction of geomorphic processes and their effects, and minimization of streamflow distortion.
