Planning is out and streamlining is in. This tends to put the primacy of attention on property interests over that of the overall public good. Fundamentally, the current political culture does not believe in planning. Community plans are only unenforceable guidelines unless property interests rally behind them. Community standards are seen as burdens or challenges to be overcome.
Planning is seen as interference.
They believe that economic development is the primary value and everything else is subsidiary to that. It's the economy stupid. The concept is that if the economy does well there will be enough money to solve our problems. The problem is that money can't solve some problems. Private rights are more important than public values.
