Planning the active neighbourhood : a discussion of resident-directed neighbourhood planning / by W.H. James Taggart.: NH15-845/1996E-PDF
"Resident-directed planning is implicit in the recommendations of the Brundtland Commission Report (1987) which called for the reallocation of resources and decision-making capacity to the local level, particularly in the case of disadvantaged populations. The federal government has supported local community involvement in housing and urban issues through a variety of programs over the past thirty years. Examples include the co-operative housing programs, community resource organization funding and, perhaps most relevant, the Neighbourhood Improvement Program from the 1970s. The community-building success of one low income community is provided as illustrative of the potential of community-based approaches"--Abstract.
