Substantial new funding is available for these activities as a result of recent voter-approved bonds. This new emphasis on restoration presents challenges for planners and resource managers as they seek to integrate such programs with broader local and regional planning needs. This course begins with an overview of the policy impetus for various kinds of environmental restoration, including regulatory and nonregulatory drivers, using specific examples of existing programs and policies. The planning framework in which restoration planning takes place is examined, as are the techniques for restoration programs to achieve existing and anticipated regulatory and planning mandates. Land use planners, resource managers, consultants, and others involved with planning and restoration efforts benefit from this course.
Enrollment is limited.
The courses Land Use Planning for Non-Planners and Funding Sources for Environmental Restoration are good preparation for this course. 1995 University Ave.
