Local governments in the United States use a wide range of tools to preserve rural landscapes. Some of these tools, like the purchase or transfer of development rights, are generally welcomed by farmers and other large landowners. Other tools, like increasing the minimum lot size in a town’s agricultural zone, are more controversial because they are believed to have negative effects on landowner wealth.  In this contentious policy environment, it would be useful to know which land use tools actually work to control residential growth, thus achieving the consensual objective of rural preservation.

Because of significant development pressure in these places, there is a good chance these lot size regulations will bind.  Such “down-zoning” often appears alongside the purchase of agricultural and conservation easements that reduce housing development even more.    Whatever the benefits of such policies for agriculture and the environment, they raise obvious concerns about housing supply and affordability.
