looking for good introductory text on land use planning
Submitted by tcarlson on Sun, 06/03/2007 - 19:16.
I'm hoping a few people from the group can help me out. I'm looking for a good intro to landuse planning text. Nuts and bolts kind of book. Any suggestions would be most appreciated! I'd like to hear from planners and academics.
Thanks,
Tom

"A Career Worth Planning"
In addition, my mentor, a former owner of the firm I work for, was a former planning professor, and is writing an introductory text on the planning profession. Hopefully this book will be on the market in the next year or so.
