A Rediscovered Frontier describes the changing land use issues
taking place in the rapidly growing western United States, paying
special attention to the previously unexplored area of private
lands planning and local growth management. The book begins by
exploring the term "New West,"and then describes prototypical land
use patterns found throughout the West. It examines the spatial
circumstances of rural and small town growth patterns, and provides
examples of the kinds of development that could occur elsewhere in
areas having similar geographic situations. The book takes a close
look at Oregon's statewide planning approach to managing growth,
and concludes with a forward-looking, cooperative approach to
comprehensive planning. Intended as a text for college students
taking courses in land use planning, a sourcebook for land use
planning and environmental management professionals, as well as
anyone who cares about western environments, A Rediscovered
Frontier addresses the social, economic, political, and above all,
geographical realities of land use in the West today.
