Resilient Coastal City Regions Planning for Climate Change in the United States and Australia
Edited by Edward J. Blakely and Armando Carbonell
Contributors: L. Brown, A. Cadogan, J. Duggie, P. Emmi, R. Ewing, P. M. J. Fisher, L. A. Johnson, D. M. Kooris, G. Laves, J. A. Lewis, D. J. Meffert, P. Newman, C. Quinn-Hurst, L. Stocker, L. Tam, K. C. Topping, P. Waterman, and R. D. Yaro
The importance of dealing with potentially severe climate impacts is increasingly clear as extreme temperature and precipitation events occur more frequently, setting climate records around the globe. This book reports on national, state, and local responses to climate-related risks relative to sea level rise and storm surge, drought and water shortage, floods, wildfires, and heat waves in nine coastal city regions: New York City, the Southeastern states, New Orleans, Los Angeles, and San Francisco in the United States; and Melbourne, Sydney, South East Queensland, and Perth in Australia.

This book assists a new generation of practitioners in understanding the roots, underpinnings, and applications of regional planning in America. Planners in the twenty-first century will need to understand local issues in a regional and global context, and adeptly define planning regions based on functional problems. Regional planning practice in the United States is settling into a new era, and the challenges that face communities and institutions require boundary-crossing collaboration like never before.

This book invites the reader to join in a virtual dialogue with its authorseducators, theorists, model builders, and plannersabout technology and the social context in which technology is employed. It reflects a dialogue that took place in September 2007, when the Lincoln Institute convened the authors and several invited planning experts to discuss the state of the art in planning support systems. Planning will never be easy; it needs and deserves the best support systems that modelers and system developers can deliver.

Visualizing Density
Julie Campoli and Alex S. MacLean With a growing population100 million more people expected in the United States by 2050rising energy and transportation costs, disappearing farmland and open space, and the need for a reduction in global warming emissions, the future built environment must include more density. Julie Campoli and aerial photographer Alex S. MacLean created a full-color book to help planners, designers, public officials, and citizens better understand density as it applies to the residential environment. Also included is a CD-Rom of the Density Catalog section, including more than 1,000 aerial photographs of 250 locations that illustrate a vast range of densities.

Inclusionary Housing in International Perspective Affordable Housing, Social Inclusion, and Land Value Recapture
Edited by Nico Calavita and Alan Mallach
Contributors: G. Caudo, J. Clusa, S. Monk, S. Mur, and R. Weiner
Inclusionary housing is a term that refers to a program, regulation, or law that requires or provides incentives to private developers to incorporate affordable or social housing as a part of market-driven developments, either by incorporating the affordable housing into the same development, building it elsewhere, or contributing money or land for the production of social or affordable housing in lieu of construction. This volume examines inclusionary housing programs in-depth in seven countries (United States, Canada, England, Ireland, France, Spain, and Italy) and reports on experiences in others, including South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Israel, India, and Colombia.

This book is based on a 2007 conference to honor the work of Karl Chip Case, who is renowned for his scientific contributions to the economics of housing and public policy. The chapters analyze risk in the housing market, regulation of housing markets by government, and other issues in U.S. housing policy. Chapters investigate derivative markets; the role that home equity insurance can play in reducing risk; the role that the regulation of government-sponsored enterprises has played in extending credit to home purchasers in low-income neighborhoods; and the growth in the market for subprime mortgages.

Large landowners represent an ideal group through which to study land use and the many forces that interact and converge to shape market outcomes, governance, and institutional form. The authors focus on land supply decisions, economic productivity, and the planning process. Conflicts that arise between stakeholders during the development process serve as the challenge and the opportunity to collectively shape our cities.

Property Taxation
New! Rethinking Property Tax Incentives for Business
Daphne A. Kenyon, Adam H. Langley, and Bethany P. Paquin In their efforts to increase economic development, state and local governments use many different types of property tax incentives for business. Some of these incentives target particular industries or investments that serve public goals such as job creation or property renovation. Others are geographically targeted, serving as part of larger incentive packages such as enterprise zones. This policy focus report reviews the range of property tax incentives for business, summarizes the literature regarding their effectiveness, and makes recommendations for reforming their use.

This book reviews the role of the property tax, addresses the reasons behind its poor performance in practice, and critiques the conventional wisdom in academic literature on the subject. While U.S. policy discussion focuses on assessment limits, rollbacks, and even elimination of the property tax, many other developed countries struggle with low collection rates, and, in most developing countries, the property tax remains a weak revenue source. The authors ask whether new reforms might reverse these patterns.

Property Taxation
Payments in Lieu of Taxes Balancing Municipal and Nonprofit Interests
Daphne A. Kenyon and Adam H. Langley In recent years, local government revenue pressures have led to heightened interest in payments in lieu of taxes (PILOTs), which are payments made voluntarily by tax-exempt nonprofits as a substitute for property taxes. This policy focus report presents case studies of several municipalities that have pursued PILOTs in the past decade, as well as a broader picture of PILOT use in the United States. It also recommends how to design PILOT programs that are fair to nonprofits while raising meaningful revenue for municipalities.

The property tax has been the primary source of revenue for local governments in the United States for centuries. Conventional wisdom holds that the property tax is essential to local autonomy because there are no viable alternatives to raising revenue for local services. Yet the property tax has been under siege for decades. This book examines the consequences of a declining property tax base with respect to local government autonomy and its impacts on governmental relations, education finance, and other issues.

Increased reliance on residential property to generate tax revenue and soaring property values in many parts of the country have placed pressure on local officials to respond to concerns about higher property taxes. The result has been erosion of the property tax base through policies designed to relieve residential property tax burdens through exemptions or abatements. This book analyzes recent property tax trends; estimates the extent and effects of property tax base erosion; and considers other related topics.

In his 1879 classic book, Progress and Poverty, Henry George proposed a tax on land values to reduce social inequality, discourage real estate speculation, and promote economic development. As an alternative to the property tax, a land value tax would increase the tax rate on land and decrease the tax rate on buildings. Since Georges day, various forms of land taxation have been adopted (and sometimes repealed) in jurisdictions throughout the world. This book surveys the current state of knowledge on this topic.

Property Tax Circuit Breakers Fair and Cost-Effective Relief for Taxpayers
John H. Bowman, Daphne A. Kenyon, Adam Langley, and Bethany Paquin Property tax circuit breakers can increase tax equity by reducing the most onerous property tax burdens as measured in relation to income. These tools are important for households both at the lower end of the income distribution and in states with high property taxes. Circuit breakers promote tax equity at minimal cost to state and local budgets, while preserving the basic nature and strengths of the property tax as a source of local revenue. Recommendations for the best design of property tax circuit breakers are included in this policy focus report.

Students of public finance and fiscal decentralization in developing and transitional countries have long argued for more intensive use of the property tax. It would seem the ideal choice for financing local government services. Based on a Lincoln Institute conference held in October 2006, the chapters in this book draw on recent experience with property tax policy and administration to analyze and discuss the numerous advantages of the property tax as a local government revenue source, as well as the many perceived disadvantages.

More than 50 percent of the global population resides in urban areas where the interactions between land policy and infrastructure facilitate economic opportunities, affect the quality of life, and condition patterns of urban development. The challenges of balancing urban growth with infrastructure development and maintenance are reflected in debates about infrastructures finance, regulation, and location and about the sustainable levels of its services. This volume, based on the 2012 seventh annual Land Policy Conference, brings together academics and practitioners who are economists, social scientists, urban planners, and engineers to discuss how issues impact low-, middle-, and high-income countries.

Value capture refers to a type of public financing where increases in private land values generated by public investments are captured or recouped by the public sector, rather than by individuals, to help pay for the initial investment needed for that development. This approach works in various ways and can take the form of taxes on the land owners, real estate taxes, or even impact fees. Addressing value capture in the United States, Britain, France, India, Tokyo, and Hong Kong, this book covers the conceptual frameworks and history of value capture; land value capture instruments; and specific applications for housing, community land trusts, transit, and science parks.

Developing policies that will keep climate change in check has become a global priority, as increasing greenhouse gas emissions contribute to extreme weather patterns. If these emissions remain unabated, changes in global temperatures and the subsequent relocation of human settlements and economic activities will have huge economic and social impacts on the worlds population. The 2010 annual Land Policy Conference provided a forum for international scholars and policy makers to discuss topics including the impacts of climate change on land use; how energy and climate change policies affect land resource allocation and land use planning; relationships among urban form, transportation, and CO2 emissions; market-based approaches to environmental conservation; and global ability to deal with climate change and land management.

Based on the proceedings of Lincoln Institutes fourth annual land policy conference, this book analyzes municipal revenue instruments such as intergovernmental transfers, property tax, tax increment financing, and local option sales and income taxes. It also examines other nontraditional public good financing mechanisms including homeowners associations, impact fees, debt financing, and public-private partnerships. The analysis compares the viability of these municipal revenue sources in the face of fiscal uncertainty.

Fiscal decentralization gives local governments powers to set taxes, make expenditures, and, in many countries, regulate land uses within guidelines set by higher authorities. Understanding the degree to which local and provincial governments can exercise these powers, and are held accountable for outcomes, is crucial for understanding land policy. Three key themes emerged from this second conference: the extent and effectiveness of local service provision under decentralization; connections between decentralization and local policies; and the effects of intergovernmental transfers on local fiscal behavior.

In June 2006, the Lincoln Institute held the first in a series of land policy conferences to address international trends and issues. The goals of this conference were to raise awareness of the importance of land policy in shaping international urban development and to explore topics in urban economics and planning that might have significant policy implications. The chapters examine five themes: public actions and property prices; the importance of land value in todays economy; land and property taxation; urban development and revitalization; and new developments in land and housing markets.

Chinas economy has developed rapidly since the 1978 economic reforms that facilitated investment, expanded trade, and introduced market practices, but public finance reforms have proceeded more slowly. Changes implemented in 1994 shifted a large share of fiscal revenues from local governments to the central government, but they did not substantially reassign expenditure responsibilities back to the center.
