AN INTRODUCTION TO PEOPLES’ PROPERTY
A SHARED POWER WORLD
A SITUATION IN A DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY WHERE ONE CAN RULE ONLY BY SHARING POWER – WHICH CAN ALSO MEAN THAT NO ONE IS IN CHARGE
SHARING POWER IN MY WORLD MEANS COMPROMISE AND COMPROMISE MEANS
REGULATIONS
WHO WANTS REGULATIONS?
SO WHY DO WE TOLERATE PLANNING AND REGULATION?
THE REITZ FORMULAIF YOU DON’T DO IT TO ME, THEN I WON’T DO IT TO YOU
TRANSLATED – IF YOU DON’T SPIT ON MY SIDEWALK, I WON’T SPIT ON YOURS
THE REITZ FORMULA IN ACTION
ISSUES OVER LAND USE AND PLANNING CAN BE RAISED TO BIBLICAL LEVELS FIRES

CIVILIZATION
I DO NOT PAY MY TAXES BECAUSE I HAVE TO OR SUBMIT TO REGULATION BECAUSE I MUST. . . ….
I SEE IT AS AN INVESTMENT IN CIVILIZATION
WE MAY BE A NATION OF STATES, BUT WE ARE ALSO A COUNTRY OF FIEFS AND
BARONIES

THERE IS A LACK OF PUBLIC TRUST AND CUSTOMER SERVICE IN THE PRIVATE MARKET
ALL TOO OFTEN THERE IS A LACK OF VISION AND COMMON SENSE
PHYSICAL PLANNING IS HARD TO DO – IT TAKES TIME, EFFORT & TALENT TO DO IT CORRECTLY
BUT PUBLIC ‘BRICKS AND MORTAR PLANNING’ BRINGS BENEFITS TO THE
PRIVATE MARKET
PUBLIC GOODS VERSUS PRIVATE GOODS
AND THERE ARE MANY MISTAKES THAT CAN BE MADE
IT IS DIFFICULT TO HAVE A FOOLPROOF PLAN WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY CLEVER FOOLS
PLANNING AND REGULATION IS NOT ABOUT SIMILARITY – IT IS ABOUT VARIETY
31 FLAVORS INCLUDING CHOCOLATE TUNA
AND IT IS ABOUT PRESERVATION OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE GOODS
HISTORY, ENVIRONMENT, PLACE, PRESERVATION
Gettysburg
IT IS ALSO ABOUT PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN
AND ABOUT PROTECTING OURVISUAL ENVIRONMENT AND AESTHETICS
AND SOMETIMES PROTECTING US FROM THE BUTT UGLY SIDE OF OUR PHYSICAL WORLD
SOMETIMES PHYSICAL PLANNING AND REGULATION IS ABOUT SAVING WORLD CLASS ASSETS
CLOUD PEAK WILDERNESS AREA – CLASS ONE RARE
IN OTHER WORDS, IT WILL DO AS A PROFESSION, BUT SOMETIMES WE FEEL LIKE THE TECHNICIAN AND SOME DAYS WE FEEL LIKE THE

COURSE INFORMATION
• Exams – final only• Lectures – 10 lectures• Presentations 2 – team presentations – 1?• Grading Basis
– Academic work and content = 80 percent– Showing up = 5 percent– Clarity, syntax, composition, look and feel = 10 percent– Leadership and management of materials = 5
COURSE GUIDELINES
• Goals– Simulate professional level skills needed for physical
planning practice after graduation.– Teach leadership and management through team projects
and co-management of these projects.– Enhance writing and presentation skills.– Teach technical skills – such as housing condition
surveying, transportation modeling, land use surveys.– Produce exemplary documents.
CONTINUED
• I expect maximum effort. Yes, I do know that you have other courses, projects, and family/personal lives. I, too, have other classes, a professional life, department expectations, a private life, and a tremendous amount of boring meetings. Perfection in writing, spelling, syntax and construction is not an option. It is mandatory. All materials produced in the class are the intellectual property of the individual.
• Presentations and plans are an art form and a craft. Plans and presentations are 1/3 beauty, 1/3 technical competence, and 1/3 organization and content. If 1/3 is missing, you either have an ugly, incompetent, or poorly construction project.
• Above all, academic and professional honesty rules! If you plagiarize, at least give credit.
OVERVIEW
• Planning – The act of discerning the futurity of current decisions
• Policies Planning – The creation of benchmarks and guidelines to guide decision-making
• Physical Planning – The basis of Town Planning; structuring the changing nature of the community
Change is Optional – Changing is Not
Futurity
• What do we need versus want?• What do we need to anticipate?• What do our clients want?• Does this differ from the current scenario and should
we care?• Where have we been on this subject?• Where are we now?• Where are we going?• How to we get there?
Policies Planning
• Cannot set plans until the key players have an agreed on set of boundaries
• What do we do with main street?• Are there exceptions?• Is this a long term policy, or does it expire
when we reach a certain threshold?• ie., Poyntz Ave is an extension of the business
district and should take precedence over all other uses
Physical Planning
• Takes place at several levels– District– Neighborhood– Site– Building
• Follows a set of policies ranging from fine- grained to generalized statements
PLANNING IS ORGANIZATION
AND LEARNING BALALNCE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY
AND HOW DIFFERENT THINGS FIT TOGETHER CORRECTLY
LEARNING HOW NOT TO GET STUCK IN A RUT
LEARNING HOW NOT TO GET CAUGHT WITH OUR PANTS DOWN
IT’S GETTING THINGS CENTERED
WE HAVE TO PAY ATTENTI0N TO DETAIL
WHAT PHYSICAL PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION ARE REALLY ALL ABOUT IS
MAKING THINGS WORK
•An Efficient, Safe Community•One That is Interesting•That Is Always A Work in Progress•It’s a Journey – Not A Destination

GRAINED PLANNING
Then Why Does It Work In Some Cases But Not Others?
Here is the major reason!People

Planning Is Politics
Politics is the authoritative allocation of valuesLiberal
Radicals Idiots and Dipsticks
Good People Fools
Libertarians People of Quality
Black Helicopters
Its Good To Remember That
– It is difficult to make something fool proof when they are so many clever fools
– Inside of every little problem there is a bigger one waiting to get out
– Everyone, everywhere continually moves to their level of incompetence
– It is instructive to remember that any site, anywhere can be modified for development for a cost$$$$$$$$
ANYWHERE – ANY PLACE?
Doing Physical Land Use Planning
• Learning the cook book formula– Finding & describing things– Locating things– Learning standards by heart– Learning threats such as water, slope & terrain– At any given time 15% of all people are idiots

AND
BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE
Today’s Mantra
• Don’t ask, just do it!
• I pay taxes on 100% of my property and I want 100% of the use of my property
• Government should act more like a business – then it might go broke
• Smart Growth is just another way of spending money
In Other Words – Put Your Trust in the Private Sector
And FinallyIt often seems like planners are stuck in a rut. Their advice ignored by all but the few in a community. It seems like we have too many bad days. But, sometimes we wonder if we really know what having a bad day really is?

HOW IT IS ACTUALLY DONE
WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT?
• Storm Water Discharge Planning• Sewer and Water Installation• Transportation Development• Elevation indicates Soil Type• Soil Type dictates development
pattern
FOR ROADS – IT’S FINDING THE RIDGE LINES
AND KEEPING THE SLOPE WITHIN A REASONABLE LEVEL
THE COOKBOOK MEASURE OF SLOPE
Expression of Slope
0 – 3 percent (flat)
3 – 10 percent (moderate)
10 – 15 percent (special caution)
15 – 30 percent (only in California and Colorado)
Over 30 percent (heart attack)
When slope is expressed as a percent, it is the vertical rise / horizontal run
Slope can always be expressed as a ratio by dividing the horizontal run by the vertical rise
1:1
2:1
3:1
5:1
10:1
Horizontal runVertic
al Rise
EXPRESSED AS A RATIO
OTHER COOKBOOK FORMULAS FOR LAND USE PLANNING
• ½ or less – Not much feasible• ½ to 1 percent – large scale land uses
such as industry, the big box, airports – BUT – major drainage and sewer flow problems
• 1 ½ to 5 percent – nearly any land use can be sited
• 3 percent is the upper limit for “no problem” heavy truck flow
UPPER SLOPE FORMULA
• 5 – 10 percent is generally good for housing development and can be used for smaller scale industry, office and commercial
• Many communities will not allow road development over
8 – 10 percent
HIGH SLOPE DEVELOPMENT
• 10 – 15% can generally only be used for hillside residential development. Very special practices must be used for road, storm water, and sewer development. All other uses are economically impractical
• 15 – 25% is used for very large lot residential development. Extreme costs can be expected
IN GENERAL, ANYTHING OVER 12% SLOPE GETS
VERY UGLY
WORLDWIDE LAND USE FORMULAS
•The rich folks take the high ground•The least developable ground is always the preferred location•Water runs down hill•You can pump water uphill

CONCEPT OF A SOVEREIGN
• Immunity• All property rights evolve from• Respect of the sovereign for private
property – Blackstone’s Dictum• Judicial attitudes – e.g. – basic assumption
of validity
CONCEPT OF PROPERTY
• Attribute of People• Appropriation (appropriable) & value• Right to material things – not personal
liberties• Exclusive – not inclusive• Can be held jointly or in common
WHAT IS NEEDED
• An owner, together with others to exclude• Objects that can be held as possessions• A sovereign to sanction, limit, and protect
rights
WAYS TO POSSESS PROPERTY
• Fee simple – or fee simple absolute• Fee qualified• Life estates – fee tails – undivided interests• Dower rights – right of an heir (spouse) to a portion of the
estate• Profits’• Curtesy – Right of a spouse to a portion of estate acquired
during marriage• Leasehold• Land purchase contract
LAND USE PLANNING MADE PLAIN – HOK-LU LEUNG
• How do land use patterns come about?– Interaction along class and economic lines according to
Burgess and Hoyt – concentric zones– Sectorial Models – edge city– Multiple nuclei – pepperoni pizza models
Burgess Model Circa 1925aka Concentric Model
Hoyt Model aka Sector Model
Conurbation Models
Economic, Social and Spatial Models
• Land Use variables– Growth machine socio political– Demographic forces (income)– Pattern and preferences (school, facilities, health care)– Transportation
• Work – 2 persons working family• Cost of transportation• Friction of transportation
