Changing values changing communities : a guide to the development of healthy sustainable communities / prepared for: Research Division, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation; submitted by: Hygeia Consulting...: NH15-896/1995E-PDF
"Since the nineteenth century, a succession of planning concepts have been put forward as alternatives to the standard residential development forms of the time. This Guide examines four alternative planning approaches which have emerged in response to concerns about the livability and sustainability of our communities; they are neo-traditional planning, the pedestrian pocket, cohousing and the eco-village concept. This Guide is intended to aid readers in evaluating these approaches, and others, in terms of how they contribute to the development of healthy, sustainable communities. It provides an evaluative framework which defines the essential attributes of a healthy, sustainable community, identifies related planning goals and objectives, and identifies some of the “tools” which communities may use to meet their goals"--Preface.
