The Public Policy Institute of California has released results of a survey on public perceptions and policy preferences related to land use and development.
This is the twenty-first PPIC Statewide Survey and the second in a new series of surveys launched in May 2001 that focuses on population growth, land use, and the environment. This new series - which is carried out in addition to the traditional PPIC surveys - is conducted in collaboration with The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, The James Irvine Foundation, and The David and Lucile Packard Foundation. The current survey focuses in particular on public perceptions and policy preferences pertaining to land use and development. [Complete 36-page report available online.]
