Urban Policy News:
Urban
policy is the sometimes-political, sometimes-professional, and official
response to urban problems and opportunities. In an ideal world it is a
response tailored to local issues and local circumstances, and prepared
in the context of an holistic strategic plan. On infrequent occassions,
however, it can reflect a novel idea from a not-quite-compatible
location, prepared in isolation (no integrated strategic context or
understanding of causal issues), redirected through misunderstandings,
over-consultation and political interests, and finally presented to the
public in a glossily packaged program which isn't funded during the
next year. Cynicism aside... Policies must fit within holistic and
coherent strategic plans, and be integrated with a range of other
complementary policies to address the multitude of urban issues
effectively and in context.
