Sustainable development in residential land use planning / by Jill Grant with Darrell Joudrey & Patricia Manuel. : NH15-740/1993E-PDF
"In recent years, the governments of several Canadian provinces have produced strategies to promote sustainable development. This research study of three Nova Scotian communities considers whether residential land use planning practice is changing in response to the idea of sustainable development. Sustainability implies an approach to land development that meets human needs without undermining natural processes or landscape function. Through reviewing policies, regulations, and practice in three communities, the authors attempt to determine whether land development protects landscapes. The analysis reveals that while most of the participants in the land development process agree with sustainable development in principle, in practice land development continues to destroy landscape functioning and to consume natural resources"--Abstract.
