The Political Economy of Downzoning
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Adelaja,   Adesoji O.; Gottlieb,   Paul D.
“Substantial downzoning” is defined as the exercise of police power to significantly reduce the legally permitted density on undeveloped land in a community. This contentious practice is typically challenged by those who perceive the action to limit their market opportunities (e.g., farmers and developers), their sympathizers, and others who prefer the status quo. Supporters tend to be those who perceive positive benefits (e.g., environmentalists, conservationists, and homeowners) and those who see it as a supplement to other preservation techniques, based on concerns over such things as growing public costs of land acquisition, limited effectiveness of existing alternatives, or the perceived urgency to act to manage growth.   Given the complexity of the...

The Political Economy of Downzoning
Provedor de dados: 31

Increasingly, in response to concerns about urban sprawl and environmental protection, local governments are exercising their police power to reduce the legal permitted density on undeveloped land.  This controversial practice, known in many parts of the country as "downzoning", is generally opposed by farmers, developers and others whose market opportunities are limited by such action.  This paper constructs a theoretical model of the impact of larger minimum lot sizes on the current land prices of farmers and homeowners within the same community.  The theoretical model suggests that net losses for farmers and net gains for homeowners from downzoning are a reasonable, if not inevitable, expectation.  Following Pelzman, Hahn, and Campos, the paper then...

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.  It is reasonable to suppose that large-lot zoning and open space preservation will both reduce the number of homes in a community when it is fully developed....

Is agricultural zoning exclusionary?
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gottlieb,   Paul D.; Rudel,   Thomas; O'Neill,   Karen; McDermott,   Melanie.
In rapidly suburbanizing areas, minimum lot sizes of ten acres or greater are often used to discourage residential development and to maintain agricultural critical mass.  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.   The issue of affordability should be analyzed at the regional scale, since we would normally expect some high-income, low density enclaves to exist within any metropolitan area....
